Members’ Private View: Mickalene Thomas & Linder
Admire our latest Hayward Gallery exhibitions, celebrating love and feminism, away from the crowds at our Members-only evening.
Take the chance to see both of our current exhibitions – and feel free to bring a guest along with you.
All About Love presents two decades of work by the internationally celebrated artist and pioneering portraitist Mickalene Thomas (born 1971, USA).
Thomas is renowned for her large-scale paintings of Black women radically luxuriating and in repose, adorned with vivid patterns and ravishing, brilliant rhinestones, as well as her innovative use of collage techniques.
Linder’s first London retrospective showcases 50 years of the pioneering feminist artist’s work, dissecting our fascination with the body and its representation.
From the early photomontages made while she was part of the punk scene of 1970s Manchester, to new work in digital montage shown for the first time, Linder: Danger Came Smiling presents the breadth of Linder’s artistic output across montage, photography, performance and sculpture.
