Kerry James Marshall is renowned for figurative pa Kerry James Marshall is renowned for figurative paintings that place Black people at the centre of art history. This most recent exhibition at the RA spans eleven cycles of his work, from the past forty-five years to new pieces debuting here.

Marshall draws deeply from Western art traditions—portraiture, landscape, and history painting—while also engaging African and diasporic forms such as Kongo power figures and Haitian Voodoo symbols. For him, knowing art history in depth is essential to contributing meaningfully to it.

His paintings often confront Black history, from the Middle Passage and slave rebellions to the Civil Rights and Black Power movements, as well as complex representations of Africa’s past. Unlike the spontaneous styles celebrated in mid-20th century American art, Marshall meticulously plans his works, creating layered images that resist easy interpretation and invite reflection.

The Old Market has not left and is not going anywh The Old Market has not left and is not going anywhere !

The London art market has been changing due to factors like Brexit, the rise of online sales, and tax changes for wealthy buyers have contributed to this decline. 

Paris is becoming a more prominent art hub. A new EU regulation, effective in June 2025, has made it harder for Europeans to buy historic British art. 

Despite these challenges, the Old Master market remains strong, with significant sales like a £10m Botticelli at Sotheby’s earlier this year.

You can find out more about the Old Masters market through this interesting article by the Art News Paper -

Last night @frestoniangallery for an exhibition of Last night @frestoniangallery for an exhibition of Adrian Berg’s major works. 

Berg was a figurative painter whose work combined emotional expression with intellectual depth, created during a period dominated by abstraction and conceptual art. 

Like his friend David Hockney, he believed representational painting still had untapped potential and perused it throughout his life. 

Though he avoided publicity he gained significant recognition with a major retrospective at The Serpentine Gallery in 1986, election as a Royal Academician in 1992, and becoming a Honorary Fellow of the Royal College of Art in 1994.
