LANT STREET WINE

59-61 LANT ST, LONDON, SE1 1QN 

15th to 18th June

We're delighted to bring you Cafe Culture, a solo exhibition by Isabella Cotier held at Lant Street Wine from 15th - 18th June.

The exhibition celebrates the long-standing tradition of cafe culture, something that Isabella has always had a fascination with as an avid people watcher and regular sketcher in cafes. The show will feature 81 original artworks created in her local London ‘caffs’ and the cafes of Florence (where she lived before London).

Created from life in her pocket size sketchbooks, they capture the wonderful characters that she has observed as well as the unique atmosphere you find in cafes - spaces that reminds us to slow down. The works bring together the observed and the imagined to create a totally unique world inspired by the history of Parisian Cafe culture with its absinthe drinkers, Toulouse Lautrec and Hemingway characters.
