Copperfield Gallery Opens in London

Joining the Tate Modern, White Cube and Barbican Art Gallery; Copperfield Gallery has opened in the heart of London, adding to the city’s diverse cultural landscape.

Copperfield Gallery is the latest project from William Lunn, who co-founded Sumarria Lunn Gallery with Vishal Sumarria in 2009 and has taken up residence in a converted former religious building on Copperfield Street. The gallery responds to a growing move south by contemporary art galleries and institutions.

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, the exhibition showing at the gallery, considers the creative application of repetitive processes, motifs and meticulous order found in contemporary art practice.

The exhibiting artists consider why human beings are so drawn to repetitive, ritualised actions that become increasingly familiar as they are presented over and over again. This is witnessed through Alistair Mackie and Yun-Kyung Jeong artworks that highlight the repetition that can be found throughout nature. Borrowing motifs and materials from the natural world, these artists point to the rational systems of order that can be found in all organic life. Conversely Tom Dale, David Rickard and Oscar Santillan take man-made objects and images as a starting point, exploring mass production, advertising and media in terms of repetitive human behaviour.

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is on display at Copperfield Gallery in London, England until Sunday 15 June 2014.
