Thank you so much to all of the artists who are exhibiting in 𝗦𝗟𝗔𝗕 and everyone who celebrated the opening with us last week.

The exhibition is now open until 22 March at The Bottle Factory - we will be open from Thursday - Saturday, 12noon - 5pm.

Beyond materiality, the exhibition explores abstraction as a continuum—an unbroken lineage of mark-making that extends through time. From the red ochre handprints in Paleolithic caves to the dynamic abstractions of today, painting remains an instinctive act, a way of leaving a trace, a residue of thought and movement. In SLAB, this historical thread is made tangible, as past, present, and future coexist within a single space.

It’s the last week of the beautiful exhibition ‘Albert Irvin: Autographic Marks’ @45parklane curated by Lily Ackerman @ackermanstudios working with @albertirvinestate and @advancedgraphicslondon

I was honoured to have an advisory role and to write an intro to the publication. I also had the opportunity to work with @sallybannayi to produce a small display (for the opening week only) from a fashion collection by @henryholland featuring the late Bert Irvin’s painterly marks in couture textile form.

A correspondence had begun between the designer and the artist but, sadly, Bert Irvin died before the collaboration could come to fruition. Holland completed the project working with the keepers of the estate, Irvin’s daughters, @priscillahashmi and @celiairvin.

The collection includes street/club wear: T-Shirts, hoodies, bomber jackets, jeans and skirts, but also some more formal mini and maxi-dresses. Irvin’s signature paintings are incorporated sometimes as complete artworks repeat-printed on fabric and sometimes as isolated gestures and marks reproduced as appliquéd prints and layered textile patches. The collection particularly references Irvin’s screen print ‘Crosstown’ printed by the artist with @advancedgraphicslondon .

In the situation of a posthumous collaboration the question of whether the artist would’ve approved is left unanswered, however, knowing Bert’s joie de vivre, I am sure he would’ve been fascinated to see his work adorning the human form moving through space, just as his whole project was about recording his own movement through the world.

There are, of course, many precedents of artists working with clothing; after the exhibition opened, @sallybannayi and I travelled to the Matisse Chapel at Vence, in the south of France, and we couldn’t help but be struck by the use of Matisse’s ‘cut-outs’ in the priest’s robes in relation to Henry Holland’s use of Bert Irvin’s paint marks as appliquéd patches.

I miss talking to Bert, however, through art and design, the conversation continues.
