Colin Self: Unseen is a major exhibition of works by the British artist Colin Self, his first London retrospective since 1986, presented across two floors at Frith Street Gallery. Curated by writer and curator Ian Collins, it brings together rarely seen pieces from public and private collections alongside the first showing of 365: A Journey in that direction, a multi-media installation of 365 wall-based works ongoing since the year 2000. The show spans painting, drawing, printmaking, collage, sculpture and ceramics, opening with works on war and militarism and reflecting the artist's sense of living on the edge between peace and war, city and country. Turning 85 this year, Self has had a seven-decade career described as a humane, playful response to threats of annihilation.
