Anna Lambert:
New Work. Sep 7–30.
Beautiful new work from Anna Lambert. Flooded valleys,
degraded moorland, bird-filled hedgerows – Anna’s
ceramic pieces speak a language beyond pastoral
sentimentality, a combination of drawing and abstracted
hand built pots.

Francis West died two years ago,
aged 79, his original, expressive
work remaining tantalisingly
unfamiliar to a wider audience.
There were shows over the years
and at good galleries too, like
Fischer Fine Art and Edward Totah
and more recently Megan Piper,
but his reputation doesn't really
seem to have seeped into wider
critical consciousness. All of which
makes the show of extraordinary
engravings, put on by
Henry
Miller
at
The Coningsby Gallery
,
particularly welcome. Their
visceral melees of human and
animal forms is part
Mediterranean/Picasso, part early
John Bellany style expressionism,
the one reflecting Chelsea Art
School in thelate50s, and
extended periods of time working
in Paris, theother his upbringing
as theson and grandson of East
Coast Scottish fishermen. It's a
potent brew.
