Ronchini Gallery

Ronchini Gallery Welcome to the official Ronchini Gallery page Ronchini Gallery evolved from 20 years of private collecting.

Ronchini Gallery is a contemporary art gallery founded by Lorenzo Ronchini in 1992, in Umbria, Italy, which expanded in February 2012 with a space in Mayfair, London. Its exhibitions have explored pioneering movements within Italy; the gallery aesthetic is defined by Minimalism, Spatialism, Conceptualism and Arte Povera and it retains an unblinking future-focus on progressive movements.

Subscribing to the highest standards of curatorship and scholarship, the gallery provides a rigorous context in which its artists can be viewed. Ronchini Gallery also maintains a successful publishing arm which produces exhibition catalogues, monographs, critical texts and artist’s books.

Ward’s compositions are first developed digitally before being re-articulated in pastel on graph paper. The artist then measures, cuts and unweaves the canvas, subsequently painting and re-sewing its fragments by hand.

The reassembled surface is stretched over its support, revealing and concealing the multidimensional properties of the canvas and the underlying architecture of the stretcher bars.

Through this process, the pictorial plane becomes a site of both construction and disruption.

Rebecca Ward (Rebecca Ward), ‘lighter later’ is on view through 30 September

Thank you for attending last night’s opening preview of Rebecca Ward: lighter later

Now Open | Rebecca Ward: lighter later Rebecca Ward

On view during the summer solstice, ‘lighter later’ references how light operates as both subject and structuring principle. Shadows are cast, diffused and reconstituted across the surface, producing ghosted geometries that hover between presence and disappearance.
On view through 30 September

Preview | Rebecca Ward: lighter later | Thursday 11 June 6–8 PM

Marking the artist’s fifth solo show with Ronchini, ‘lighter later’ will feature all-new works by Brooklyn-based Rebecca Ward, staging chromatic adjacencies that allow colour to function as atmosphere and force.

Ward mobilises the interplay of arcs and axes not as oppositional categories, but to destabilize binaries altogether. Linear and curved elements intersect and overlap one another, suggesting identity as relational, provisional and continually in flux.
Join us next Thursday from 6-8pm at Ronchini, 21 Conduit St. Artist in attendance. Don’t miss it!

Beginning with canvases laid on the floor, Mays pours, splashes, and spreads fluid paint in acts of physical immediacy, before moving the work to the wall, where forms begin to surface, dissolve, and reconfigure.

The show’s title refers to Mays’ engagement with the historical figure of the “runaway,” a term used in the archives of American slavery to describe those who fled in search of freedom. Mays considers movement not only as escape, but as a way of shaping one’s own path, tracing how legacies of displacement and survival continue to resonate across time.

On view at Ronchini, 21 Conduit St, through 6 June

Now Open | Shara Mays: Runaway

Animated, restless, and uncontained, her compositions contain figures and landscapes which flicker in and out of visibility, suspended within dense accumulations of brushwork, drips, and layered pigment.

Mays’ “internal landscapes” draw from lived experience, including memories of the American South, ancestral histories, and embodied encounters with the natural world.
They attempt to grasp the unknowable: emotions, sensations, and histories that evade fixed form.

Now Open | Shara Mays: Runaway

Animated, restless, and uncontained compositions unfold across large-scale canvases. Figures and landscapes flicker in and out of visibility, suspended within dense accumulations of brushwork, drips, and layered pigment.

Her “internal landscapes” draws from lived experience which includes memories of the American South, ancestral histories, and embodied encounters with the natural world. They attempt to grasp the unknowable: emotions, sensations, and histories that evade fixed form.

“My visual work in this series attempts, in an abstract way, through color, texture, and subtle references to
flora and fauna, to understand what freedom could look like when one has the full use of one’s senses and
one’s own time.”

Opening this Thursday | Runaway: Shara Mays

Ronchini invites you to join us this Thursday from 6-8pm for the exhibition preview of Runaway, ‘ first solo exhibition in the UK

Known for her expensive gestural paintings, Mays creates intuitive, immersive compositions that blur figuration and abstraction

Taking its title from the historical figure of the “runaway,” a term used in the archives of American slavery to describe those who fled in search of freedom, the exhibition considers movement not only as escape, but as a means of shaping one’s own path. Mays engages with the histories of the American diaspora, tracing how legacies of displacement and survival will continue to be felt in the present.
