London Diary: 15 October

15 October 2014

Every morning until the end of Frieze, we’ll be rounding up some of the latest exhibition openings in London. Click here to view the whole series.

Gerhard Richter
Until 20 December, at Marian Goodman

Marian Goodman makes an impressive entrance to Mayfair’s gallery scene with a major Richter exhibition. The show, which takes up both storeys of Goodman’s new Golden Square gallery, includes a major new glass panel sculpture; fluid, colourful ‘Flow’ paintings; steely monochromes and a series of ‘Strip’ paintings which systematically rework an old abstraction into new ones.

William Tucker RA: Unearthing the Figure
Until 29 November, at Pangolin London

The bulk and weight of Tucker’s sculptures are often offset by the liveliness of their surfaces. This exhibition brings together a broad selection of the artist’s works, from early figurative sculptures to new casts.

Dealer, maker, fictional protagonist…this series of paintings and sculptures at Campoli Presti by artist avatar Reena Spaulings will leave you guessing about the nature of display, branding and the cult of the artist.
