ART & ABOUT<br />
In town this month<br />
Simone Riley is the featured artist at Chalk<br />
Gallery from the 21st. You might recall her distinctive<br />
personal style from the beautiful cover<br />
she created for us in April 2017. Made by taking<br />
an original photograph, or combining elements<br />
from several images, her photomontages are built<br />
up from her library of photographed textures,<br />
creating layers and subtle colours that end up<br />
more fine art than photograph. Until the 10th of<br />
June. [simoneriley.co.uk]<br />
In Her Shoes, an<br />
exhibition by experimental<br />
glass artist<br />
Alison Allum, is at<br />
Martyrs’ Gallery<br />
from Saturday the<br />
5th (until the 25th).<br />
Recently shown at<br />
the V&A, Alison<br />
exploits the inherent<br />
qualities of glass – ‘beauty and fragility<br />
versus tensile strength and the potential<br />
for danger’ – to explore the contradictory<br />
experiences of modern womanhood. Gallery<br />
open 12 noon–5pm, Thurs–Sun.<br />

Miss Newcastle Brown<br />
Marco Crivello<br />
Father and son Marco and<br />
Jacob Crivello present Continuum<br />
at Keizer Frames<br />
Gallery in Malling Street,<br />
from the 19th. Jacob will show<br />
his poetic, sculpted landscapes<br />
in bell jars and wall-mounted<br />
microworlds growing within<br />
vintage tobacco tins. Alongside,<br />
Marco presents a final series<br />
of seascapes, as well as a wide<br />
range of new work that continues<br />
to explore themes of improvisation,<br />
materiality and process. The exhibition continues<br />
until the 3rd of June. (Private View, Saturday 19th, 2-5pm.)<br />
