Russell Perkins

We are pleased to present 𝘍𝘦𝘢𝘳 𝘰𝘧 𝘍𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨, the first UK solo exhibition by Chicago born, London based artist Russell Perkins, opening Thursday April 30 from 6 – 8 pm. His practice examines the increasing financialization of culture, considering how risk, precarity, and economic imperatives register at the level of the individual. Engaging with the logics of prediction and control, Perkins adopts the aesthetics of administration to explore how speculation operates on visual, sonic, and spatial registers. Across the exhibition, political and financial structures are restaged as systems of belief, sustained by a desire for stability in the face of an uncertain future. - Russell Perkins 𝘱𝘨 10, 𝘶𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘺 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘤𝘪𝘳𝘤𝘶𝘮𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘴, 2023-26 Digital print on neobond, sound, aluminium frame 152 × 101 × 3 cm ______ @angelshampoo - Special thanks to collaborators, supporters and friends: @theelephanttrust @t.m.hoangnguyen @david.gobber @taz.munyaneza @charlieculbert

📍East @public.gallery For the sixth edition of London Gallery Weekend, Public Gallery is pleased to present two exhibitions: ❶ Shaniqwa Jarvis, ‘Only Love Will Break Your Heart’, 30 April — 7 June The first UK solo exhibition by the New York born, Los Angeles based artist. Through floral motifs, layered compositions, and reflective surfaces, the exhibition attends to traces of grief, memory, and loss while foregrounding questions of spectatorship. Central to the exhibition is a sustained interrogation of the material condition of the photographic image. ❷ Russell Perkins, ‘Fear of Falling’, 30 April — 7 June The first UK solo exhibition by the Chicago born, London based artist. Perkins’ practice examines the increasing financialization of culture, considering how risk, precarity, and economic imperatives register at the level of the individual. Engaging with the logics of prediction and control, Perkins adopts the aesthetics of administration to explore how speculation operates on visual, sonic, and spatial registers. ____ Shaniqwa Jarvis, 𝘪 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘮𝘵𝘩 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘪𝘵 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭𝘴 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘩𝘰𝘮𝘦, 2026.

Russell Perkins | résidence 100 jours | 1er session Vit et travaille entre Londres et Paris. Russell Perkins est un artiste de l’échange et de la collaboration. Chacun de ses projets récents implique un partage de savoirs, de pratiques et de méthodes entre connaisseur·euses divers·es, incluant détectives, joueur.euse de poker, chercheur.euse en médecine légale et acteur.ices des marchés financiers. La pratique pluridisciplinaire de Russell Perkins révèle les affects réciproques des phénomènes économiques et corporels. Prenant pour outils et matériaux flux de données informatiques et prélèvements scientifiques, il conçoit des expériences sensibles, visuelles et auditives qui nous invitent à être attentif·ves aux rouages occultes d’un capitalisme omniprésent qui oriente nos mouvements et régit les corps. Les champs de l’incertitude, de l’indicible et de l’arbitraire deviennent ainsi le terrain d’investigation des équilibres précaires des marchés, des systèmes, des rituels, et des individus qui les habitent. Les bruits y deviennent musicaux, les dissonances harmonieuses, les prises de risques pérennes. Le détournement d’informations factuelles, supposément objectives et souvent capitalisables, résulte en un jeu sensible et critique de nos relations à la connaissance et au temps. Pour Russell Perkins, la résidence 100 jours sera l’occasion de poursuivre ces recherches et pratiques collaboratives, nourries d’une implication personnelle au sein des communautés queer, et d’un engagement de longue date dans les luttes anticarcérales. De fait, la pratique partagée apparaît alors comme un appel à développer des modes relationnels moins coercitifs, ouverts à des formes de militantisme et d’action politique collective renouvelées. @angelshampoo Images : 2.
