  • Inka Essenhigh

    15 March – 28 April 2000 Victoria Miro Cork Street In Essenhigh’s most recent large-scale canvases, action figures are cast alongside the demimonde in roles where time-honoured human concerns such as patriotism, religion, competitiveness and heroism are played out in futuristic, Madmax-like landscapes. Her paintings present a new, but not necessarily better world than our own; one whose rather outlandish...
  • Spot On

    9 February – 10 March 2000 Victoria Miro Cork Street Ross Bleckner, Peter Doig, Udomsak Krisanamis, Yayoi Kusama, Chris Ofili
  • Chantal Joffe

    12 January – 4 February 2000 Victoria Miro Cork Street This show of recent work by Chantal Joffe continues the small individual figure studies for which she has enjoyed such success, but now with the addition of some larger works in which a number of figures appear together. This is an exciting departure for Joffe’s work, extending it not just...

  • Isaac Julien: Three

    10 – 30 September 1999 Victoria Miro Cork Street Three is the most recent of Isaac Julien's works to be made specifically for a gallery context, combining a full screening of the film with three looped sequences back-projected side by side and presented almost as a moving photographic triptych.
  • Tracey Moffatt

    Laudanum 26 May – 19 June 1999 Victoria Miro Cork Street A series of nineteen photogravures, which have been individually aged, scratched and hand-tinted, Laudanum has been more than a year in the making and has the appearance almost of fine graphite drawings. Once again, Moffatt's roots as an experimental film maker are evident with references to the work of Murnau,...
  • Cecily Brown

    Serenade 21 April – 21 May 1999 Victoria Miro Cork Street 'The place I'm interested in is where the mind goes when its trying to make up for what isn't there. When something is just suggested.' Cecily Brown in conversation with Dodie Kazanjian, Vogue, (US edition), February, 1999 Cecily Brown graduated with a degree in painting from the Slade in 1993...

  • Robin Lowe

    13 January – 26 February 1999 Victoria Miro Cork Street Recently seen in Young Americans 2 at the Saatchi Gallery in London, Lowe is best known for his hyperreal, close-up, psychological portraits of children and babies executed on metal panel. Despite their ostensibly child-like qualities, the subjects' facial expressions often verge on the adult and deathly, and their stances on...
  • Yayoi Kusama

    18 November 1998 – 8 January 1999 Victoria Miro Cork Street Most of Kusama's oeuvre can be traced back to early hallucinations she first had in her childhood of multiplying dots and nets which gradually spread to dominate her universe. These visions developed into obsessive neuroses which fuelled her paintings, sculptures and performances (during which she invariably covered her naked models...
  • Hadrian Pigott

    14 October 1998 – 13 November 1999 Victoria Miro Cork Street Hypergienics , Hadrian Pigott's first major London show since Young British Artists V at the Saatchi Gallery is a culmination of his investigation of the fetishism of domestic manias and the associated lunacy of consumer choice, the social implications of consumption, waste, fashion and taste. A set of beautiful, matching,...

  • Brad Lochore

    Still Life 18 March – 17 April 1998 Victoria Miro Cork Street Continuing his investigation of the artifice of image making and the processes of visual perception, Lochore's new work marks a radical departure from the earlier computer generated shadows of window grids which recently have become more fractured and distorted, placing the viewer within a hallucinatory visual field. The paintings in...
  • Abigail Lane

    Never Never Mind 14 – 30 January 1998 Victoria Miro Cork Street Never Never Mind is an intensely lyrical work comprising a hypnotic sound component with neurotic imagery, capturing and engaging the viewer in a mesmerising moment. In past work Lane has at times explored the terrain between conceptual practice and demystification through the processes of mark-making and searching for clues, recodifying...
  • Inez van Lamsweerde

    The Widow 26 November – 20 December 1997 Victoria Miro Cork Street In The Widow series, the computer was only used to retouch the images and van Lamsweerde has entered into a narrative world, or so it seems at first glance, since we see an eight year old girl posing in different dresses and props. Yet because of the rigid colour scheme...
  • Alex Hartley: Viewer

    Alex Hartley: Viewer

    29 October – 21 November 1997 Victoria Miro Cork Street Alex Hartley presents a major new work, Viewer .

    8 July – 1 August 1997 Victoria Miro Cork Street Stephen Willats presents three major new works which celebrate the richness of urban life in London where each individual builds his own space and reality in the face of a bombardment of everyday sensations.
  • Chantal Joffe

    4 April – 2 May 1997 Victoria Miro Cork Street 'The paintings are small format works with a figure or figures, usually partially cropped. I would like to think they are making something beautiful out of something trashy and perhaps something scary out of normality.' Chantal Joffe, March 1997
  • Thomas Demand

    21 February – 27 March 1997 Victoria Miro Cork Street There is a certain uneasiness and estrangement about Thomas Demand's large and immaculate photographs of interior spaces and architectural exteriors. Tension between reality and artificiality is established by the fact that what at first appear to be hyperreal reproductions are in fact images of life-size reconstructions made of card and...
