SUMMER SEASON: A Series of Nine Solo Exhibitions at OOF Gallery. in their words…

This summer, we're putting on nine solo exhibitions by some of our favourite young artists. We've called the whole thing SUMMER SEASON and we're splitting the programme into groups, just like a World Cup but for really good art. Group C is finally here, bringing our Summer Season of exhibitions to its thrilling conclusion with solo presentations by Luke Burton, Delphine Dénéréaz and Jamie Holman. You like paintings? You've got Burton. Fond of tapestries? Dénéréaz is what you're after. Love reconfigured photographs of mass gatherings at football matches and illegal acid house parties? Holman's got you covered. Honestly, we've got it all. Except street art. We don't have any street art. Luke Burton's paintings and enamel works elevate the humble football to an object of classical beauty, on a level playing field with Doric columns and Roman portraiture. They are direct, joyous celebrations of the colour, shape and form of footballs. Pure and simple. French artist Delphine Dénéréaz takes discarded materials found lying around the streets of her native Marseille and weaves them into intricate carpets and tapestries to create a folk art shrine to her beloved football club.
