    I'd start at Bosse & Baum in Peckham, where I’m excited to see Kateřina Šedá’s exhibition, she uses collective action to reflect on social spaces, and hasn’t exhibited in the UK for a long time. [Read my full route description below]

    I'd start at Bosse & Baum in Peckham, where I’m excited to see Kateřina Šedá’s exhibition, she uses collective action to reflect on social spaces, and hasn’t exhibited in the UK for a long time. Next on my list is Coppperfield gallery and Larry Achiampong's show. There's so much free art in public spaces to see whilst you’re travelling around the city from gallery to gallery. For example, there is a permanent work by Larry at Westminster Station, consisting of a re-imagining of London Underground’s iconic roundel logo as a Pan-African flag. After Copperfield, I’d head to Phillida Reid to see Edward Thomasson’s show. You can travel to Philida Reid via Tottenham Court Road station which has Eduardo Paolozzi's Rotunda mosaics, one of the most loved and best examples of public art in London. A fifteen minute walk up Shaftesbury Avenue takes you to Pippy Houldsworth Gallery, where I’m looking forward to seeing the first UK solo exhibition of Qualeasha Wood’s work. Along Piccadilly is Timothy Taylor who are showing Sahara Longe’s incredible paintings, which are loaded with art historical references. Hopping on the central line from Bond Street to Bethnal Green - to visit Soft Opening's Narumi Nekpenekpen exhibition – will take you past Rhea Storr’s artwork as you come up the escalator at Bethnal Green station. Rhea's beautiful photographic sequence centres around the production and circulation of images of Black subjects, it’s on view until September, so catch it while you can!
