Royal Academy - Abstract Expressionism, by Deleted on Aug 25, 2016 17:33:25 GMT 1, Not strictly urban but should be good
www.royalacademy.org.uk/exhibition/abstract-expressionism?utm_source=Adestra&utm_medium=email&utm_term=&utm_content=Abstract%20Expressionism&utm_campaign=AbEx%20%282%29%20opens%20in%204%20weeks%2027.08.16&emailcode=
The giants of 20th-century art are on their way
Experience the scale, colour and energy of America’s greatest art movement in this autumn’s must-see exhibition.
Abstract Expressionism emerged in 1940s New York, where artists like Pollock, Rothko and de Kooning broke new ground to create art that was bold, profound and expansive enough to express the anxieties of the modern age.
Now their radical masterpieces will be brought together in a long-overdue celebration of the entire movement. See some of the most iconic works including paintings, sculptures and photographs by well-known and less-familiar artists that contributed to Abstract Expressionism’s vast scope and complexity.
Get ready for this unmissable show and find out what makes an Abstract Expressionist artwork with five key things to know about the movement.
Exhibition opens 24 September. Friends of the RA go free.

Royal Academy - Abstract Expressionism, by Deleted on Sept 1, 2016 18:57:50 GMT 1, In the midst of economic crisis issues, MoMA did an AbEx show a few years ago. It was entirely from their collection. The best thing about it was getting to see pieces that normally didn't go on display from artists that history just didn't find to be headliners. William Baziotes. Grace Hartigan. Harry Calahan. Going deeper into Lee Krasner. Etc.
And any chance to see a few Arshile Gory works together is a much-appreciated treat.

'The Irascibles' photo by Nina Leen = greatest photograph in art history. So much involved in there. Wish Hans Hoffman had made it.
Front row: Theodoros Stamos, Jimmy Ernst, Barnett Newman, James Brooks, Mark Rothko; middle row: Richard Pousette-Dart, William Baziotes, Jackson Pollock, Clyfford Still, Robert Motherwell, Bradley Walker Tomlin; back row: Willem de Kooning, Adolph Gottlieb, Ad Reinhardt, Hedda Sterne

Royal Academy - Abstract Expressionism, by Coach on Oct 29, 2016 11:29:21 GMT 1, Had a smashing day at the RA yesterday.
Met up with hubblebubble, 11, Daniel, and had the great pleasure of finally meeting dappy.
The exhibition is outstanding. Huge! The Rothco room is such a delight. The Pollock's are incredible. I also loved the de Kooning's and the Gorky's. This is one of the best exhibitions I can remember.
Took a few snaps. The exhibition catalogue I'd fabulous.
