Hoxton Distillery invites you to the opening of Close to You on Thursday
September 6. Presenting new work by Tom Gleeson and Claudine Hartzel, Close
to You explores myths of romance through artistic practices firmly based in
conceptualism.
Tom Gleeson's video and photographic work turns to the cinematic excesses of
romantic love and to how this language informs communication. A series of
photographs of sleeping friends and lovers fill one wall of Hoxton
Distillery, while a video recounts a tale of obsessional desire.
Hartzel too looks to the dreams of romance in her multi-slide projector
installation. Referencing the clichéd illustrations of Mills and Boon
novels, she creates a parallel universe in the space of Hoxton Distillery
filled with utopian ideas and symbols of romance.
Close to You is curated by Lisa Le Feuvre
Opening Thursday September 6
Open Friday - Sunday 12.00 - 18.00
