Michael Upton

Wednesday, 29 October 2008 - Saturday, 15 November 2008

Messum's, 8 Cork Street, Piccadilly, W1S 3LJ

Exhibitions: , Art, Painting, Gallery

How Much: Free!
Something of a retrospective for Michael Upton at Messum's this month.

While the rest of art world went big and abstract expressionist, Upton did boring little paintings in muted colours. Kind of like Hammershøi but with the domestic melancholy replaced by a muted beige oddness.

That doesn't sound that good, but he's totally brilliant.

Until 15.11.08.
