Artists

Osada prepares her own grounds and most of the working time goes into them. A linen is chalked, sanded, chalked again, and only then drawn on, usually once. The mark that arrives last is the smallest thing in the picture.

She has said that she is not interested in what a painting shows but in how long it takes to admit that it shows anything. Grid Study II holds a hand-drawn grid that is very nearly invisible at two metres and unmistakable at forty centimetres, which is the whole of the argument.

Vilde has painted black for nineteen years. The paintings are not monochromes in the flat sense - they are built from dry-brush passes laid at different angles, so the surface answers a raking light differently in every square inch and looks like nothing at all under a flat one.

He will not number them and does not date them individually. The gallery lists them by the span of years in which the group was made, which is a condition of showing them.

Kron paints fields of colour that behave like weather rather than like place. Each layer is left to go matt before the next arrives, so the finished surface is a stack of dry colours instead of a mixed one.

Second Nature, in October 2026, is her first solo exhibition in the UK. Fourteen paintings, made between 2023 and 2026.

Marchant mixes one colour and then changes what sits underneath it. Nine Grays, in 2025, was a single gray put down on nine grounds - chalk, lead, oiled, raw linen, and on down a list printed at the door. Hung on one line and lit flat, the nine read as nine colours.

She has kept a written record of every ground she has used since 1981 and treats it as the work rather than as a note about it.

Aune is the youngest artist the gallery works with and the slowest. Tempera dries as it is laid, so a picture cannot be revised, only continued - a board of his carries between four and nine hundred passes and takes a year.

His first solo exhibition at Kolm is scheduled for 2028. Until then the work appears in group hangs and in the drawers at the desk.

Calloway draws the same four windows of the same building and has done since 1998. The drawings are between 15 and 40cm and there are now more than six hundred of them.

She is the only artist here who has never made a large work, and the gallery hangs her at the same 150cm line as everything else, which leaves a great deal of wall around each sheet. That is intentional and she chose it.
