In this exhibition Julian Wild shows recent work in bronze and stainless steel, the surface of both highly polished. In some pieces he introduces vibrant colour as if stripping away a layer of one substance to reveal another. Most of these sculptures were created since Wild has been spending more time in the Sussex countryside surrounded by managed woodland and the rural activities of coppicing, harvesting and working wood. This milieu has almost subliminally worked its way into his sculpture, as reflected in the title he gives this exhibition: Stripping the Willow.

In these new works Wild moves seamlessly from geometric to organic form. His earlier use of man-made materials such as glass, ceramics and plastics may currently lie dormant; however his inventiveness and the wide range of scale in which he works remain ever present.

14 MAY – 7 JULYPRITCHARD’S ROAD DAY CENTREThis exhibition displays the work of the Art Group at Pritchard’s Road Day Centre in Bethnal Green, a multi-cultural centre for adults with mental health issues. The Art Group chose the theme of Transportation for the simple reason that all the members liked drawing real or imagined modes of transport. They realised that in a city like London there are three different levels in operation at any one time - underground, overground and up in the air. They also felt it was important to show these different levels as it reflects and challenges common preconceptions that they are often judged by their mental health needs and not by their artistic talents.

7 JULY – 8 SEPTEMBERBOW ARTS Bow Arts takes professional artists into schools across East London to improve the lives and learning of children and young people. Ella Robinson and Sara Heywood recently worked with six schools on the Isle of Dogs to create original works of art for each school.

Three schools created bold vinyl artworks with Sara, inspired by everyday objects, nature and local architecture. Ella worked with Early Years children to design and make playful and interactive Higgledy-Piggledy Trees. The project also included teaching training and family workshops.

This display includes photos and models of the artworks, children’s work that informed the final designs, and photos of the workshops.

31 MAY – 26 JUNEKATE NOLANKate produces stark, contemporary embroideries for the 21st century: there is nothing dainty or conventional about her work. She uses industrial materials to bridge the gap between traditional embroidery and the modern world, creating hangings that are intriguingly fragile but also utilitarian, and designed to be viewed as free-standing decorative hangings.
