It\u2019s your last chance to acquire work by NewBloodArt master Rebecca Fontaine-Wolf<\/a> as the now Portugal-based artist leaves the gallery. It\u2019s been a pleasure and a privilege to curate Rebecca\u2019s work over the past decade and watching her develop her unique sensibility, in an original artistic practice, committed to exploring “female identity in its relationship to mortality and desire.<\/em>” You can read on below about how her career is flourishing: now is the final opportunity to invest in Rebecca through the gallery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most decisive factor in this change of career direction for Rebecca is her move to Portugal, where she invited at the beginning of the pandemic for an artist residency programme. The nature of her work changed at this time, \u201cpartly due to circumstances: being stuck in an AirBnb for two months without a studio, partly because I felt that my work had to adapt to reflect the new reality we were collectively experiencing<\/em>.\u201dAs a result her practice grew to include more digital elements \u2013 photography, video, and NFTs \u2013 some of which are available with the gallery. Some of these limited edition photographs are available online now for a short while longer; they show an elegant and bold splicing of the human figure throughout the digital and physical realms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since arriving in Portugal Rebecca has received several short term residencies, and now ongoing funded studio residency to develop her practice at Marvila Art District Lisbon<\/a>. You can see pictures of this fabulous new space she has to work in below. Several of the artist\u2019s works have been bought by the museum Centre de Arte Oliva \u2013 one of the biggest private art collections in the country.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other significant career developments for Rebecca have been coalescing around her work as co-founder \u2013 and now a director, as well as curator \u2013 of InFems<\/a> (the Intersectional Feminist Art Collective). The collective\u2019s aim is to empower women and girls from diverse backgrounds to engage with the arts. The group has had exhibitions in Lisbon, Leicester and London’s Soho with MC Saatchi for International Women’s Day. This September through January they\u2019ll have their first museum show at Haus Kunst Mitte, the foundation in central Berlin, curated by gallery director Dr. Anna Haveman.

A Savage Beauty Disturbed by Restless Dreams by Rebecca Fontaine-Wolf, \u00a38,200 <\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Rebecca will be having a two person show in Lisbon this September alongside Brazilian Painter and Filmmaker Thiago Gadelha. These past years while Rebecca has been showing online with NewBlood she\u2019s been exhibiting with the ING Discerning Eye annual exhibition at the Mall galleries London \u2013 including as an invited guest artist in 2019 and 2021. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last but not least: this year Rebecca, as part of InFems, was commissioned by fashion designer Carolina Herrera<\/a> to create a NFT for International Women’s Day, with all proceeds going to Fundaci\u00f3n Ared<\/em>: a charity helping vulnerable women back to work. Just before the pandemic she was an invited speaker at Hauser & Wirth in London for their Herstory series, for which the gallery invites \u201cinspirational women from  the art world to share their stories, initiatives, and inspirations.<\/em>\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond the Solstice by Rebecca Fontaine-Wolf, \u00a37,200
<\/a>
“This piece is from my latest body of work. Inspired by the female archetype, from saints to voodoo spirits, to the goddesses of the Greek Pantheon Dreams, Promise and the Divine is a creative exploration into the many forms these archetypes inhabit. They offer a plethora of possibilities of what it means to be a woman.<\/em>“<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Rebecca is proving she’s not content to limit herself to one medium, or from curating and directing in addition to her visual art practice. We wish her the best in this exciting next chapter, of what’s so far been a diverse and committed career to witness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
