Saatchi Gallery Saatchi Gallery This exhibition comes at a time of heightened interest in the artist. In 2018, as part of its initiative to re-evaluate key twentieth and twenty-first-century artists, art publisher Black Dog Press produced a monograph documenting Johnnie Cooper’s 50-year career; and this eagerly-awaited presentation – his first in London in three decades – will be complemented by further shows in the UK and America. Displayed across two galleries, the show is comprised of more than 50 paintings and sculptures, including works from the 1970s. In 1977 London Cooper was offered a solo exhibition to coinside with the Wakefield Silver Jubilee Festival, which featured sculpture by Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth. 2 5

1 Gustave Gustave Caillebotte Perspective Street Study Caillebotte 1877, Pencil & charcoal on paper 30.3 × 46.5 cm 1 THE PAINTER PATRON OF THE IMPRESSIONISTS Art Institute of Chicago

Alte Nationalgalerie Gustave Caillebotte (1848–1894) was one of the central figures of French Impressionism, yet he is among those artists who remain to be discovered today. His fame was initially founded on his role as a patron, and only later did he gain full recognition as a painter. Caillebotte’s painting “Paris Street; Rainy Day” (“Rue de Paris, temps de pluie”), completed in 1877 and now an icon of Impressionism, is coming to the Alte Nationalgalerie. It is considered one of the artist’s principle works, and is a showpiece of the Art Institute of Chicago. The monumental painting has rarely travelled to Europe in the past, and this will be its very first appearance in Berlin. 2 4 Berlin Close consideration of Caillebotte’s 2 paintings and methods opens new Gustave Caillebotte perspectives on French Impressionism.

The Māhū were highly respected within their society until they were banned by Catholic and Protestant missionaries. Wiley’s portraits of transgender Tahitian women reference Gauguin’s celebrated

St Ives studied art at the American University in Beirut and lived in Paris and then California for many years, before returning to Beirut in 2013. Tate St Ives will be her first solo museum venue in the UK. Shifting between figuration and abstraction in large, colourful paintings and detailed drawings, the works reveal 4 the delicate balance between the suggestive and the explicit in Caland’s practice. Taken from the late 1960s to the early 80s, many of the works will be shown in the UK for the first time. Caland’s exploratory practice has had a key, if under-recognised, role in the development of international modern art. In the 1970s, after moving to Paris from Beirut, she created exuberant and erotically-charged paintings, which challenged traditional conventions of beauty and desire. 2 5

Galerie TemplonGalerie To celebrate Philip Pearlstein’s 95th birthday, Galerie Templon is taking a look back over the journey of a deeply original artist. Despite studying along- side Andy Warhol in his youth, he took a totally different path, with a return to studio painting and the exclusive use of live nude models in complex yet incon- gruous compositions. Over a dozen paintings, produced between 1969 and 2018, reveal a principled approach that has always been innovative despite the apparent simplicity of his subjects. As early as the 1960s, Philip Pearlstein defined a radical protocol that he still
