Delight in the differences
When you’re mooching around the North Laine, it’s always worth a detour into Gallery40 to find out what’s popped up for the week. So look forward to the upcoming show by 
Ian Boutell and Michael Hutley, the friends who met doing a Fine Art degree at Northbrook College and will be exhibiting at the Gloucester Road venue from 19 September.
Formerly an architect, Ian now creates layered perspex constructions and abstract paintings underpinned by the themes of structure and fluidity that reflect his view of the world. Michael explores the world through painting and photography, attempting to capture his response by suspending critical judgement. Eye-catching images, and activities or events that attract his attention, are photographed or drawn then worked on later as collages, drawings or paintings. Until 25 September.
