Miart Gallery London presents ‘CONVERGENCE’ featuring the works of Lars Beusker and Italian Painter Giusy Rampini.

Miart Gallery is proud to announce its latest exhibition: “CONVERGENCE”, an exhibition that bridges the gap between the wild and the human gaze and moves beyond the limits of the physical space- it’s a heartbeat, a pulse of the natural world, encapsulated by two artists, award-winning German wildlife photographer Lars Beusker and Italian painter Giusy Rampini, who dare to capture the raw essence of wildlife through both paint and lens. For Rampini as it’s her first exhibition in the UK, while Beusker is exhibiting in the UK for the second time.

“Convergence” suggests the union of two or more forces, where Beusker’s photographs and Rampini’s paintings unite, offering a rare, almost resistant look into the eyes of the wild. This is not a distant observation; it’s a direct invitation into the realm where animals are not subjects but entities that are gazing back, challenging us with their unfiltered presence.

With the new exhibition, Miart Gallery represents a space where different worlds can come together-this time, art and nature unite. This commitment to offering fresh perspectives and merging fields is exactly why Miart Gallery has been recognized with multiple awards, celebrated for connecting viewers with art in unexpected and thought-provoking ways, and inviting audiences to question the boundaries between the observer and observed.

Lars Beusker is more than a photographer, he is a storyteller of the natural world, capturing moments that feel both intimate and monumental. Known for his evocative black-and-white wildlife photography, Beusker brings a distinct perspective to the exhibition, one rooted in his deep connection to Africa’s wilderness. 

Giusy Rampini, a celebrated Italian artist known for her wildlife paintings, brings a painterly sensitivity to her exploration of African wildlife. Rampini isolates her animal subjects from their natural environments, capturing not only their physical form but also the spirit and energy that animates each creature. 

The exhibition will include a selection of 19 photographs by Beusker and 8 paintings by Rampini. The exhibition is curated by Irem Deniz, founder and director of Miart Gallery. With the CONVERGENCE exhibition, Miart Gallery invites art enthusiasts, wildlife fans and the general public to experience a glimpse into the spirit and untamed beauty of the natural world right in the heart of London.
