Duct tape, bondage, condoms, chains… Marc Aurele's debut solo exhibition at The Bomb Factory Foundation is a striking exploration of your darkest arcane appetites. The exhibition, minimalist and meticulously curated, presents raw materials in their most unadorned state. Upon entering, visitors are immediately enveloped in a sensory experience.

Driven by the opportunity to engage with, support, and champion emerging artists who embody creativity and innovation within the London art milieu, Art Angels Curated is an art collection curated by the discerning eyes of Carmele McGeary and Julie Townend.

"In recent months, we have set up a new home, with lots of art." - read our interview with art collector Andrew Jovic.

ARTCOLLECTORNEWS is delighted to present Jonathon Downing, the first winner of our monthly open call. This 26-year-old painter from Detroit, Michigan, despite his young age, already boasts an impressive track record of international exhibitions. He speaks wholeheartedly about his upbringing, inspiration, 'bag of tricks,' as well as his favorite and most challenging pieces to date.
