Bernard Jacobson Gallery is delighted to announce a special season of exhibitions, publications, film, and performance celebrating half a century of the creative output of Bruce McLean, one of the most important figures in British contemporary art. The season will include a two-part retrospective at Bernard Jacobson Gallery, the publication of a new book with essay by Mel Gooding and commentary by McLean, and the premiere of a film by McLean and long-time 'Nice Style' collaborator, Gary Chitty, titled The Decorative Potential of Blazing Factories.

In 1969 Bernard Jacobson began his career as an art dealer, selling and publishing prints by important contemporary artists from a small fourth-floor gallery in London’s Mayfair. For a gallery founded on printmaking and which continues to stage major print shows by artists including Matisse and Motherwell, what better way could there be to celebrate this half century than a two-part exhibition devoted to printmaking?

In 1969 Bernard Jacobson opened his first London gallery – a fourth-floor walk-up on Mount Street, Mayfair, dealing in prints by international stars, including Andy Warhol and Claes Oldenburg, as well as publishing prints by leading British artists including Malcolm Morley and Robyn Denny. Printmaking fit the radical, pop sensibility of the time, and Jacobson was part of that heady explosion of interest in the medium. As the gallery approaches its half century in 2019, it is fitting that this landmark year opens with an ambitious two-part exhibition exploring Jacobson's personal and abiding love of prints and some of the remarkable works published by the gallery during an eventful 50 years in the business.

Bernard Jacobson Gallery is delighted to announce an exhibition of new work by acclaimed British action sculptor, painter, and ceramicist, Bruce McLean. The exhibition will feature works produced over the past year, including six Shade paintings, a series of vivid works which explore light and shadows, as well as a six-meter long minimalist Sunset painting, and a group of new monoprints on wood.

Bernard Jacobson Gallery is thrilled to announce the opening of Bruce McLean's new exhibition, Action Sculpture Potato Painting, a collection of new works by the Scottish sculptor, performance artist, filmmaker, and painter.

Bernard Jacobson Gallery is delighted to present a show of new work by Scottish artist Bruce McLean. McLean has been investigating the condition of sculpture since the late 1960s and creatively interrogating, in an astonishing diversity of media, the nature of its validity, its diverse possibilities of meaning, its propositions and pretensions, its presentations, positionings and re-positionings, its private and public settings, indoor and outdoor, and its critical contexts.

Bruce McLean is back with his first exhibition of new paintings in more than 20 years. Collectively entitled The Black Garden Paintings, these works are abstracted paintings of his gardens in Barnes and in Menorca, where he spends part of the year, and of his friend's garden also in Barnes.
