Gary Stevens’ largest solo show to date in which new works are displayed alongside retrospective and seminal video pieces. The exhibition includes two new works Containment and Now and Again: Westgate, Southampton alongside his acclaimed video installations Slow Life and Wake Up & Hide. Making reference to landscape, still life and portraiture painting the new works explore complex representations of time, presence and absence. Peopled by local inhabitants, Now and Again: Westgate, Southampton has been filmed from four different perspectives at the Westgate in Southampton’s Old Town. It reveals an understated, uncanny aspect to everyday activity with a dawning sense of synchronicity. The additional work Containment has a sculptural quality to it where images intermingle on clusters of video monitors in the gallery. Saturday 27 October, from 6 – 8pm Not Tony: a live performance by Gary Stevens followed by special exhibition viewing & illustrated talk £8.50 (£7.50 conc) booking t: 023 8083 4536
