News — Abstract

This November, joining our growing roster of artists is Glasgow-based painter and researcher Graham Lister. He divides his time between his studio and GSA (Glasgow School of Art) where he works as a lecturer in Painting and Printmaking, and where he previously gained a practice-based PhD. He also has a MFA from Gray's School of Art, Aberdeen, and an MA in Art History from Glasgow University. 

Broth Art is pleased to present 'Prosen' a solo show of work by Scottish artist Oran Wishart. Bringing together painting, mixed media and sculpture, it explores the interplay between place, memory and language, revealing how these elements co-create meaning and experience. Named after Glen Prosen, a remote glen on the southern edge of the Cairngorms National Park in Scotland where Wishart grew up, 'Prosen' is a deeply personal body of work that explores both the visible and invisible forces that shape our sense of self. 

Exhibition Details:
 Dates: 14 - 19 October 2025, 10am-6pm
 Opening Reception: Tuesday 14 October 2025, 6pm-8pm
 Location: Broth Art (Pop-up), 11 Caledonian Road, London N1 9DX

We are delighted to announce that Oran Wishart has joined our roster of artists! Based in Lanarkshire, Wishart is a graduate of Glasgow School of Art (GSA) whose paintings span figuration and abstraction. 

This year, Carol Douglas was invited by the Yorkshire Sculpture Park to present a solo exhibition of work. The show, called Actually I Can, presents 51 paintings that are about the everyday, portraying household objects and people in domestic settings.

We have a whole new collection of paintings by Sarah J. Stanley, a Glasgow-based artist whose work explores themes of religious dogma and subservience. Blocks, bricks, grids, ladders, and stairs are commonplace in Stanley's painterly lexicon. They form boundaries, pathways and even cages, evoking ideas of confinement and coercion- a feeling known only too well by Stanley. She grew up in a family of Christian fundamentalists. Extreme and cult-like, with no time for anything but Church and bible studies, her childhood was void of play and deviance.
