Throughout February Forster in Shoreditch, London is showing ‘Anti Gravity’, a body of work by Andrew McAttee. With a gleeful nod to Lichtenstein, this latter-day pop artist’s vast canvases are saturated with the visual language of graffiti, comics and sci-fi graphic novels, rendered in an almost overwhelming level of chromatic intensity. Splashes and flares oscillate happily with stylised stars and clouds in this relentlessly optimistic experience. Far more austere but no less glossy is Berlin-based Gerold Miller, also showing in Shoreditch at Rocket, from 7 February. His new wall-based aluminium high glass abstractions from the Total object series are connected by minimalism, pop art and design. At Talbot Rice, Edinburgh is showing an artist whose work also pays homage to the Pop Artists. Alan Michael’s ‘Touch Void’ (to 1 March) references mass production, consumerism and mundanity in a breathtaking leap from Jasper Johns to Ralph Goings.
