These will be showcased at the gallery in November, during a public programme event that will include a newly commissioned sound piece by Justin Langlands.This group is dedicated to connecting readers with Goodreads authors. On this occasion the artist has created a limited edition of art objects and art as clothing under the label House of Le Bas – Gypsy Couture. Indeed, while ‘Zigeuner’ – German term for Gypsy – has been called out for being considered offensive and discriminatory by members of the Romani and Sinti communities, in Britain, the word Gypsy is part of a self-identifying position.Ī British Romany Gypsy artist, Le Bas revisits the motif of the spicy sauce bottle, as a tool for protest, similar to a Molotov cocktail, in dialogue with artist Betye Saar’s Liberation of Aunt Jemima: Cocktail (1973), or as ‘Pissotovs’ filled with her own urine, in echo with the ‘Puputovs’ used during the 2017 Venezuelan protests.īeyond identity, this exhibition is an opportunity for new explorations into the artist’s creative roots in textile and fashion. In the Zigeuner Sauce series (2017-21), Delaine Le Bas also proposes to reflect on identity and self-naming.
For this new display, Le Bas is taking over the gallery, transforming the ground floor walls into a massive canvas, with the insertion of paintings and other materials creating a form of mise-en-abyme. One of them, 'Beware of Linguistic Engineering' (2021), adequately translates how language is used by the powers that be, to influence collective thinking, but also blur meaning, understanding and interpretation. Media manipulation is also addressed through new ‘minimalist’ paintings in which words become sole pictorial elements. Taking the news as source of information, Le Bas transposes the newspaper format to her creative practice, laying it on the gallery’s ground floor to convey the pervasive flux of information in everyday life, the speed at which news circulate, leaving little scope for critical distance, and how it eventually vanishes from our memory.
