Marilyn Simler – Looking In /Looking Out @ Highgate Galery
Oct 7 @ 1:00 pm – 5:00 pm

The Cycle of Life, a recurring theme in the work of Marilyn Simler, took on a deeper and more penetrating exploration during this time.  Simler says, “For the first time in years, I was able to focus on creating a new body of work, working every day immersed in the flow with little interruption”.   Emerging from lockdown, and being presented with the openness and thrill of the vastness of the landscape and enduring positivity of the world, explains the title of the exhibition.

What has emerged is a series that has come from within, which considers the impact of the pandemic and of being more solitary.

Simler’s works reference the magnitude of the natural world which becomes a metaphor for the life cycle.  Her preoccupation is with the organic structure of plants and seed pods, and the celebratory glory of flowers, the journey from germination, sprouting, growing, budding, flowering, fading, drooping, folding in, dying, drying, merging…..to re-emergence.  She observes the variety of seasonal landscapes, the sea and its treasures of shells and lumps of coral, in turn creating worlds within worlds and explored in mixed media.

Marilyn works intuitively allowing the work to develop in an unplanned exploratory manner; each piece becoming a journey of its own.  The work has recognisable and abstracted forms that are integrated into abstract spaces, and she uses a variety of media including drawing, watercolours, acrylics and collage on both paper and canvas. Often a few surprise elements are integrated into the surface of the ground.

The vibrant colours and textures of Southern Africa are inherent in Simler’s work, having spent her formative years growing up there and gaining a BA Honours in Fine Arts at Wits University.  After emigrating to the UK with her family she obtained an MA in Fine Arts at Middlesex University.

She has exhibited widely in both group and solo exhibitions, including the Cadogan Gallery and the Royal Opera House.

Her work is held in Public Collections, including the Rolls Building, Unilever, and the V&A print collection portfolio with the PMC Publications.  Awards include the Print prize at Middlesex University, St Cuthbert’s Mill Award for the National Open Print and the Zenith Purchase Prize at the Mall Gallery London.  Commissions include Royal Caribbean Cruise line, and many corporate and private commissions.

Might drivers walk or cycle? @ Highgate Sopciety
Oct 12 @ 7:30 pm – 9:00 pm

Electric cars will be vital to London achieving net zero carbon targets because of reluctance of drivers to walk and cycle, according to David Metz, Professor of Centre for Transport Studies at UCL. This reluctance is illustrated by Highgate’s resistance to Haringey and Camden’s plans to encourage walking and cycling, arguably for good reasons including demography, suburban location, topography and road layouts. David has been described as a “guru” in understanding how people travel and his new book “Good to Go, Decarbonising Travel after the Pandemic” puts all of this into perspective, particularly his research in Copenhagen and other cities. The book has been described as “a tour de force survey from one of our most thoughtful transport experts”. He shows how the car will remain important and how transport planners and modelers keep focusing on the wrong thing in looking at time savings. Decarbonising will thus require a new way of thinking; no easy answers but lots of options.

Entry £5 to include a complimentary glass of wine (£3 on Zoom). Booking via Eventbrite

Sandy Laing Exhibition @ Highgate Gallery
Nov 4 @ 1:00 pm – 5:00 pm

Sandy Laing    4-17 November 2022

Sandy Laing, painting graduate of the Royal College of Art in 1975, is exhibiting in his first European show in over 42 years, featuring drawings, collages and paintings from the full length of his career.

Sandy Laing’s individual approach to painting is a legacy absorbed by inspirational teaching he received in his early teens.  He taught art following a RCA Masters in painting and his own creative output was political, humorous, and highly subjective.  By combining paint, pen, ink, and printers’ blocks with assemblages of carefully selected found objects his work intrigues, rich in landscape and argument.

Sandy Laing will be on show at the Highgate Gallery on:

Wednesdays to Fridays 13:00-17:00,

Saturdays 11:00-16:00

Sundays 11:00-17:00,

Mondays & Tuesdays Closed

Private View: Friday 04 November 18:00-20:30
