For a limited time, we're offering Grant Foster's A Year of Kindness + our new publication Painting (n,v) for a special combined price of £25.
A Year of Kindness is an artist’s book by Grant Foster conceived in reference to Max Ernst’s collaged picture book A Week of Kindness. It is compiled from excerpts, gathered over the course of a year, from the artist’s dream journals and waking diaries to alternate, page by page, between dream and a shared waking reality.
A Year of Kindness is hand signed and numbered as a limited edition of 100 copies.
Painting (n, v) is centred on a series of 2-person painting projects at Kingsgate which ran through 2023 - begining with new writing commissioned in response to each exhibition. The book then widens its focus with three further essays which attempt to think about how we make and look at painting today, in our moment of painting ubiquity complicated by an anxiety of looking. Particular focus is given to the way that painters look differently at paintings, often by reading the actions and decisions involved in painting-making.
