Damien Minton, Genevieve Harnett - 'Sento'

Hot baths are a fact of life in Japan and public baths are commonplace. "Sento" means bathhouse but in Italian it means "I feel" so there is a hybrid signification in the show's name.

All of the paintings in the show depict bathhouses. I bought one. I had been to a show of Harnett's work before and at that time the works were small and sort of flat-surfaced. In xthe new show the paintings are bigger and more expansive.

I went to the show with Virginia and it was cool outside the front door of the gallery, where we talked with other people.
