ADLER BEATTY: MANIC PIXIE NIGHTMARE DRAWINGS

Ubu Gallery is pleased to take part in a new group exhibition at Adler Beatty. Manic Pixie Nightmare Drawings is curated by artist Sedrick Chisom and traces the dynamics between Surrealist and contemporary art, evoking dreams and delusions as they relate to the feminine form. The exhibition is slated to run until May 3, 2024 and features contributions from Ubu Gallery by the artists Unica Zürn and Hans Bellmer.

Founded in 1994, Ubu Gallery has presented almost 100 exhibitions of 20th Century avant-garde art, with an emphasis on the inter-war period of the 1920s-1930s, particularly the Dada, Surrealist, and Constructivist movements. Ubu exhibits paintings, drawings, photography, sculpture, and ephemera (books, posters, graphic design, etc.) and, wherever possible, highlights the interrelationships among these art forms.

Ubu Gallery is a well-known presence on the international cultural scene and enjoys a worldwide reputation for its serious explorations of areas covered by few other galleries, including acclaimed survey exhibitions of Polish, Romanian and Czech avant-garde art. Ubu’s focus on the avant-garde, particularly on historically important artists and movements that have not received appropriate attention, has earned the gallery frequent reviews in press throughout the world focused on the visual arts. Ubu participates in the most important Parisian art fair, FIAC, held annually in the Grand Palais (2010-2016), and has participated significantly in Art Basel (2003–2011) and the encyclopedic Frieze Masters fair (2012–2015) showcasing the best of antiquities to modern art, in Regent's Park in London.
