Installation view of Rebecca Ackroyd’s “CARBURETTOR” at Kinman, London (2014)
The penultimate exhibition at Henry Kinman’s subterranean space in Curtain Road is an engaging and confident solo show by 27-year-old Rebecca Ackroyd, who is still studying for a Post-Graduate Diploma at the Royal Academy School in London. The relentless march of developers through Shoreditch means that Kinman will have to abandon their concrete basement at the end of the year. New premises in the neighbourhood are being sought as I write, and there is talk of a New York space, Kinman Projects, opening in November as well.
