Jerwood Space, London

New paintings from the Royal Academy Schools

Peter Harrap, Natasha Kissell, Rui Matsunaga, Miho Sato, Rachel Shannon, Hannah Wooll

Peter Harrap’s work is in the private collections of Michel Roux and the CEO’s of HSBC and Laurent Perrier. He has been called a ‘Great British Hope’, by John Russell Taylor in The Times and will be exhibiting at Marlborough Fine Art, Oct 2005

Natasha Kissell’s work caught the eye of Saatchi at the RA in which ‘he understood it immediately, seeing the humour’ (Evening Standard, 10 June 2003). She was nominated for this year’s Beck’s Futures and will be showing at Marlborough Fine Art, Oct 2005.

Rui Matsunaga paints a ‘fusion of contemporary cartoon animation and ancient mythology’, Morgan Falconer, RA magazine 2002. She has exhibited internationally and been a finalist for the Lexmark Prize. Her work has been selected for a New York exhibition by the film director Simon Rumley co-held with the Armoury Show, 2005.

Miho Sato has been collected by Graham Norton. ‘The quiet stillness and haunting resonance’ in her work is very striking, says Ros Carter in the John Hansard Gallery catalogue: New British Painting. She was a finanlist in this year’s John Moores and is due to have her first solo show with domoBaal Gallery in June 2005.

Rachel Shannon paints ‘a strange fantasy world’ (Ossian Ward in RA magazine, summer 2004). She was nominated for this year’s New Contemporaries and a source has revealed that Dinos Chapman was especially taken by her work.

Hannah Wooll has recently shown in ‘We didn’t Mean to be Bad Kids – TV made us do it!’ at Warrington City Art gallery and ‘Le Petit Paysage’ as part of the Liverpool Biennale Independents. She will also be exhibiting at New York’s Armoury show in March 2005.
