ING Discerning Eye Exhibit


New Blood Artists Selected for the annual ING Discerning Eye exhibit 


This annual show running at the Mall Galleries in London will display works selected by six judges: two artists, two collectors and two critics. ING has sponsored the exhibit since 1999, it’s an annual insight into an incredibly diverse range of contemporary artistic practices. It goes on show between 11th and 20th of November at the London location and online until the end of the year. 


The New Blood selected artists are: 

Sean Anthony Winn – “Like the photographs of Nan Goldin, pioneer of the diaristic form, these paintings are deeply personal but bequeath a solidarity of experience in revealing what was kept hidden. With skill Sean Anthony paints areas of local effluence using fairy lights and other light sources.” 

Thomas Cameron – Selected as a Bloomberg New Contemporary 2021, he still has a few of his works available with the gallery. Check out these lucid scenes of the everyday, where light on an ordinary surface in the painter’s hands transfigures into something beguiling. 

James Bristow – An artist who’s just joined the gallery, his work Waves #11 (a unique edition screen print) has been selected. The chimes with Bridget Riley are evident: in fabulous colour the artist plays with surface and depth, stasis and movement.  

Sarah Shaw – The artist’s painting The Hidden has been selected. It characteristically combines the epic with the minute or the intimate. “We are immersed, briefly, in the painting’s own time zone. We experience absorption: the painting is speaking to itself, and we are privy to its process of coming to know its own aspects of depth, motion and colour.” 

And Felicity Gill is an Invited Artist this year, she’ll have four works on display. This is on top of a brilliant year for the artist, seeing her widely exhibited as well as shortlisted for both the Moth Art Prize and the Women United Art Prize.
