Review

http://www.riflemaker.org/

Riflemaker has shot to the forefront of the hunt for new art guns.

Bucklow did a residency at British Museum, thinking about William Blake. Bucklow combines de kooningesque abstact stuff with Fontana gashes, and adds in a bit of figurative flourish about things he's interested in like his dreams. Sounds terrible, doesn't it. Yet the paintings look all right, and even his circular dream diary of his life ( nothing duller than other's dreams) is paradoxically not boring. The show is oddly hung which is also good.
