Artist Exhibition / Derek Ogbourne

Ogbourne studied at Slade School of Fine Art in London (1981-89).

While he was at UCL he was awarded the Rosa Morison and Jeremy Cubbit prizes.

He teaches at Hampstead School of Art and occasionally at the Slade and other london art schools , Exhibitions include What Makes Me, What Makes You at the South London Gallery, Space International, Valencia, Spain and the Museum of Optography, The Purple Chamber at Sharjah Foundation, UAE.

This exhibition 'Cluster Globular' explores the artist’s hand while painting, informed by the suggestion of untamed formlessness, and concerned with the formation of constructions in space, as one mark connects to another we anthropomorphise eyes, limbs, bones in surreally impossible architectural
arrangements. There are sometimes suggestions of shadows that in turn imply a pictorial logic of both depth and gravity, which is then denied by the flatness of the ground.
