A number of exciting exhibitions are opening in the South West this month, including Victoria Art Gallery’s exhibition of works on paper. This not only includes drawings and collage, but also large three-dimensional objects such as Karla Black’s delicate and sensuous hanging structures and Brian Griffiths’ giant futuristic cardboard computer.
In London, this year’s snapshot of emerging artists, Bloomberg New Contemporaries, takes place at South London Gallery.
