Press ReleaseArtworksAlison Watt: From Light at the Pitzhanger
On March 6, Lévy Gorvy Dayan opens Alison Watt, a presentation of new works by the artist to coincide with her solo exhibition at Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery in Walpole Park, West London. Watt’s still life paintings are distinguished by a deft realism informed by perception, memory, and art historical research. The paintings on view at Lévy Gorvy Dayan and Pitzhanger form part of a series that engages with the life and collection of Sir John Soane (1753–1837), one of the foremost architects of the British Regency era. Soane is known for his eclectic collection of paintings, sculptures, and architectural fragments, as well as models, books, drawings, and furniture, part of which remains on-site at Pitzhanger, his main residence between 1804 and 1810.
