Appearing to radiate with their own internal light source and blooming with vibrant swathes of color, the paintings of Caribbean British artist Winston Branch are apparent celebrations of visual perception. Nearly six decades from his first solo exhibition at the seminal alternative art space Arts Lab led by Jim Hanes, Branch is now the subject of his inaugural solo with Goodman Gallery in London, “Out of the Calabash,” featuring a range of new and recent work, as well as one historical piece, Blue for Miles, dating from 1982. The exhibition follows the announcement of his global representation by Goodman Gallery in partnership with Varvara Roza Galleries.

Goodman Gallery Owner and Director Liza Essers noted, “As a South African gallery with deep roots on the African continent and beyond, consistently working with artists who navigate international contexts, Goodman Gallery recognizes Branch’s sustained engagement across Africa, the Caribbean, Europe, and the United States. Branch’s representation continues the gallery’s legacy to platform artists making a meaningful impact on a global stage.”
