Michael G Jackson: Energy and Motion
A selection of prints available to view and acquire - 'Online Exclusive' Show on ARTSY“Energy and motion made visible – memories arrested in space”.
- Jackson Pollock
MMX Gallery is delighted to present a selection of one-of-a-kind works by Michael G Jackson, exclusively online exhibition on Artsy. This selection includes some very recent and brand new large scale works.
Mike Jackson's Luminograms are a very special piece of photographic art. Not a photograph in itself but a creative medium of its own. Each one is meticulously crafted by Michael in his darkroom.
Each Luminogram is unique and only one silver gelatin print is produced of each image.
The images reveal themselves with a 3D quality; viewed in the flesh the abstracted surreal forms within the paper come alive to the viewer.
“Abstraction allows man to see with his mind what he cannot see physically with his eyes....Abstract art enables the artist to perceive beyond the tangible, to extract the infinite out of the finite. It is the emancipation of the mind. It is an exploration into unknown areas.” ― Arshile GorkyAs the artist says in his own words; "The goal isn't to replicate the real world - it is to show where the real world and the process meet - sometimes pushing towards the real world, sometimes pushing towards the process - but never completely at either extreme."
“Black-and-white always looks modern, whatever that word means.” – (Karl Lagerfeld), so do Mike G Jackson's unique work look always modern. Furthermore, by escaping the reality, it transforms every scene into magical and timeless space.

'Tree Huggers from the Future' by George McLeodA selection of 4 prints on display in the MMX Gallery front window'Tree Huggers from the Future' by George McLeod, a selection of 4 prints on display in the MMX Gallery front window. McLeod’s recent project Tree Huggers From The Future centres around a fictional encounter with time travelling ecotourists. The mysterious figures have returned to the past to study trees, which have ceased to exist in their future reality. McLeod documents their interaction with the surrounding woodland, which is by turns joyful, humorous, and sombre (after all, none of them have ever seen a tree before). Whilst photographing these anonymous time travellers, McLeod asks them about the future. In order to “preserve causality”, they are unable to be forthcoming with their answers, and can only tell him that they are willing to risk it all to save the trees, which for so many generations have been taken for granted.

Brian Griffin
Sliced Bread (Mother's Pride), 1986“I think that Brian is one of the most interesting portrait photographers ever. His portrait photography belongs to another time. Portrait photography today is like so simple, so straightforward, so it seems that all photography portraits are alike. Brian is different and Brian has a craziness in him – a craziness in a way to see the world, and intensity that belongs only to him.”
– Francois Hébel, Director, Fondation Henri Cartier-Bresson (present), Director, Les Rencontres d’Arles (1986-1987, 2001-2014), in the documentary by Michael Prince; The Surreal Lives of Brian Griffin, 2018
