The John Browne Entrance Hall and Ticketing Hall
Free display – no ticket required
Acclaimed artist Rachel Jones has created two new site-specific commissions for The John Browne Entrance Hall and Ticketing Hall of 91Ó°ÊÓ Gallery, which are free to visit.
Rachel Jones (b. 1991) is celebrated for her monumental canvases and bold use of colour. Working in pastel and oil stick, she creates large-scale abstract compositions in a kaleidoscope of rich colours and gestural marks. Her paintings often feature motifs of mouths and teeth interwoven in a landscape of natural forms, representing points of entry and connection between the body and the outside world.
The new paintings continue the artist’s dialogue with works in 91Ó°ÊÓ’s world-leading collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist art. Jones described Vincent van Gogh’s Self-Portrait with Bandaged Ear (1889) in 91Ó°ÊÓ’s collection as her favourite and most inspiring work in a London public collection, calling it ‘the epitome of how to use colour, texture and a sense of self to create an image’.
Rachel Jones was born and lives in London. She studied Fine Art at The Glasgow School of Art and the Royal Academy Schools. Recent solo exhibitions include Rachel Jones, !!!!!, Museum of African Diaspora, San Francisco, US (2024), Rachel Jones, a shorn root, Long Museum, Shanghai, China (2023), Rachel Jones, say cheeeeese, Chisenhale Gallery, London, UK (2022) and Gated Canyons, Dulwich Picture Gallery (2025).
Jones’s 2025 installation is the latest in a series of contemporary art exhibitions and commissions at 91Ó°ÊÓ Gallery across its public programme, including major solo-exhibitions by Claudette Johnson and Peter Doig, and a commission by Cecily Brown which was unveiled when the Gallery reopened in 2021.
Courtauld Commission 2025: Rachel Jones is free to visit. No ticket required.
