According to The Guardian, four free art exhibitions are currently drawing attention in London. Maxwell Alexandre at Carlos/Ishikawa explores class and racial contrasts in Rio de Janeiro through his 'white figuration' approach. At Huxley Parlour, Susan Meiselas’s 'Carnival Strippers' captures the exhaustion and behind-the-scenes realities of American striptease performers in the 1970s. Meanwhile, the minimalist works of Hyun-Sook Song at Sprüth Magers examine themes of memory and tranquility through brushstrokes. Finally, the 'Sunset Club' exhibition at Sadie Coles’ project space serves as a tribute to the music history and clubs of 50 Carnaby Street, which were once hubs for cultural and musical exchange in London.
