Melissa Kime: Do You Think I’m Pretty?
Chalton Gallery
Opening 28 January – 27 February 2016
Painter Melissa Kime completed her MA in painting at the Royal College of Art in 2015 and has already been awarded with the Gordon Luton Prize for Fine Art, a prize won out of all the 2015 graduates from the Royal College of Art, The Royal Academy Schools and The Slade. Her works hunt for characters from the artist’s past and holds on to those from the present. Her works are autobiographical and in turn expressive, looking at her childhood and into her reluctant emergence as an adult.

Ray Richardson: London Soul
Beaux Arts
Opening 28 January – 27 February 2016
Ray Richardson’s paintings invite you to contemplate your position in the world he has created on canvas. His compositions oftentimes evoke the feeling of staged dramas that have been captured in a freeze-frame. His paintings aren’t excessively loud and are deliberately unobtrusive, leaving it to the story to speak more so than the qualities of the compositions.

Creation from Catastrophe: How Architecture Rebuilds Communities
The Architecture Gallery
Opening 27 January – 24 April 2016
“A disaster zone where everything is lost offers the perfect opportunity for us to take a fresh look, from the ground up, at what architecture really is.” – Toyo Ito. This exhibition looks at how architecture can provide practical and radical solutions to cities that have experienced areas of destruction by either manmade or natural causes. Looking at these awful events with optimistic eyes, architects are viewing these situations as opportunities to re-imagine what a city could be. This exhibition takes you on a journey through 18th century Lisbon, 19th century Chicago, 20th century Skopje and ending in current day Nepal, Nigeria, Japan , Chile, Pakistan and USA.
