<\/p>\nA new art space has launched in north London in the former Methodist church initially transformed into a gallery by the collectors Anita and Poju Zabludowicz. An organisation called Camden Arts Projects (CAP) has taken over the property at 176 Prince of Wales Road which was bought last year by the husband-and-wife artist duo, Philip and Charlotte Colbert.<\/p>\n
According to Tom Keating, the director of CAP, the couple established the not-for-profit organisation following their acquisition of the property. CAP, which is part of an umbrella company known as Contemporary Culture Collective, now operates the main gallery and front spaces of the building<\/p>\n
\u201cCAP was founded with the aim of reopening and revitalising this important cultural venue, with a focus on supporting both emerging and established artists and filmmakers and making them free and accessible to the wider community,\u201d Keating says. He adds that curator Hala Matar, who formerly headed up The Little House, a Dries Van Noten space in Los Angeles, is running the exhibition programme.<\/p>\n

Creed is represented by Hauser & Wirth gallery and the exhibition is free to enter.<\/p>\n
Scottish-born Philip Colbert is known for creating large-scale works depicting lobsters, such as The Lobster Painter\u00a0which graced the promenade at K11 Musea in West Kowloon, Hong Kong. According to his website, \u201cColbert has created a global following for his cartoon lobster persona and his masterful hyper pop history paintings\u201d. <\/p>\n
Charlotte Colbert\u2019s film She Will was released in 2021, while her exhibition Dreamland Sirens opened at The Fitzrovia Chapel, London, in 2023. She is the half-sister of the former Conservative London mayoral candidate, Zac Goldsmith.<\/p>\n
