Residency in the Front Gallery

Katya Granova

A Song of Unrequited Love for Britain

4th - 24th November

RuptureXIBIT alum, Katya Granova, has begun her residency in the Front Gallery, entitled ‘A Song of Unrequited Love for Britain’.

In week one, she’s already made strides to working out her plans for there residency. Examining what she’s called her unrequited love, she hope to explore her personal relationship to Britain and British culture.

Continuing in her practice of working with ambiguous and mundane photographs from the distant past, sourced from flea markets in various countries and create works that capture her painterly response to their black-and-white contents, with a special emphasis on colour choice.

The doors are open to the public for a number of events throughout November.

First up, Granova will be hosting an artist talk, in conversation with RutpureXIBIT’s Kate Howe and Sally Minns. They will discuss Granova’s artistic journey thus far, tell about her current practice, its roots in personal and political experiences, aspirations, and work process.
