Andy Parkinson blogs about the exhibition Contemporary British Abstraction at SE9 Container Gallery, Eltham, on view through April 11, 2015. The show, curated by artists Matthew Macaulay and Terry Greene, features work by: David Ainley, Ralph Anderson, Dominic Beattie, Chris Baker, Andrew Bick, Katrina Blannin, Claudia Boese, Julian Brown, EC, Ben Cove, Clem Crosby, Pen Dalton, Lisa Denyer, Andrew Graves, Terry Greene, Susan Gunn, Alexis Harding, Sue Kennington, Sarah R Key, Phoebe Mitchell, Matthew Macaulay, Ellie MacGarry, Katrin Mäurich, Sarah McNulty, Mali Morris, Andrew Parkinson, Aimee Parrott, Marion Piper, Clare Price, Geoffrey Rigden, Gwennan Thomas, Trevor Sutton, David Webb, Mary Webb and Gary Wragg.

Parkinson notes that "The show provides a glimpse of the current abstract scene and the range of abstract painters working in the United Kingdom at this point in time, some who are very well known artists and others who are almost unknown. There is variety also in terms of style and focus even within the arguably narrow confines of 'abstraction'."
