Rhythm in the Blues Group Exhibition Opens in London

The exhibition titled 'Rhythm in the Blues' will take place at 14 Percy Street, London, from May 12 to May 20, 2026, showcasing the work of five international artists. Co-curated by Pamela Bryan, who established the Octavia Art Gallery in New Orleans, alongside Julia Campbell Carter, a curator based in London, the exhibition uses Rhythm and Blues as a metaphor, linking the musical histories of New Orleans and London through themes of displacement and reinvention. Featured artists include Alia Ali, a Global Nikon Ambassador and Jameel Fellow at the Victoria and Albert Museum, Aigana Gali, a Georgian-Kazakh painter, Azadeh Ghotbi, an Iranian-American artist, Naomie Kremer, an Israeli-born artist, and Lucille Lewin, a sculptor from South Africa. The show addresses concepts of rhythm, migration, memory, and place, lacking a singular aesthetic.
