“We love the Summer. Every year in July and August we experiment with our curating and for the only exhibition of the year we are themeless. The Summer Salon exhibitions give us the opportunity to try out new artists, new work, new styles, and keep it fast moving. Unlike other exhibitions, if a piece sells then we remove it straight away and replace it with something new. Similarly, we may just decide to randomly introduce new work or another artist. Sometimes this is a straight swap and sometimes it means we end up moving things about and re-hanging the whole show. Playtime for the curators! … So far, Summer Salon 2013 promises to be full of bright colours and high impact aesthetic quality underpinned by layers of ‘thought’. But of course that may change after the first week!”

bo.lee gallery inaugural London show, Saudade, 12-27 July
For their inaugural London show, bo.lee gallery bring together a selection of gallery and guest artists to create a show that examines the anatomy of nostalgia. “The inner self is brought to the fore for examination as layers of childhood, religion and fable are stripped back to reveal a faded glory with a rose-tinted hue. A potent amalgamation of emotions is adroitly blended in painting, sculpture and photography to inspire the viewer to seek out that which is missing, experience the absence and then to live again.”
bo.lee gallery are now based in London, N1 and viewings are by appointment only. To arrange a viewing please contact Jemma Hickman at jemma@bo-lee.co.uk.
