Living London
(
Eleven
Spitalfields
, map 31) is an
exhibition of searchingly
expressive, distinctively original
paintings by Julie Held (b.1958).
A powerful triptych – on one
side, a fiercely upright self-
portrait of the artist clutching a
huge bouquet against a stark
black backdrop; on the other, a
man literally down-and-out as he
crouches in the bottom right
corner – is mediated by a central
panel of a vertiginous
urbanscape glimpsed down a
narrow street. In paintings of
flower, shoe and charity shops,
and in a taut yet palpitating
pastel of Borough Market, Held
explores with vibrant subtlety
both the beautiful and brutal
paradoxes of transient quotidian
life in this great palimpsest of a
capital city.
