Camden Arts Projects is pleased to announce a major exhibition of new and recent work by Allen Jones, organised in collaboration with Almine Rech, opening on the 5th of June 2026. One of the most influential figures in British Pop Art, Allen Jones helped shaped contemporary visual culture for over six decades. His bold, graphic style and provocative exploration of the human form have made him a defining voice in the contemporary art world. This exhibition brings together painting, sculpture, alongside a major piece created specifically for this presentation. The show celebrates the artist's remarkable practice and offers a timely opportunity to engage with Jones's ongoing practice and his continued dialogue with colour, form, and diverse approach to exploring the human figure.

Who is she but a toy kitchen?
