About the event
Shem continues his "characteristic provocation, who decides how an artist gets to be categorised?" Sir Richard Heaton, Chair to Advisory Committee on the Government Art Collection, 18 February 2022.
Moving apparently seamlessly from his recent (May - August 2023) solo show ‘The Loser Wins,’ in Seoul, Shem reveals a new collection of work on canvas and found materials, closer to home, in Margate, Kent.
From ‘Green Screen’, an ironic, deceptively effortless display in minimalism, to the more characteristic exuberance of ‘Gold Thoughts’, this collection showcases Shem’s considerable range and stakes his claim amongst abstract expressionists, in his own lane, ‘chaotic expressionism’.
Welcome to Shem’s Art School.
