Louise Giovanelli, Ad Astra (2026), painting from In the Light of False Suns at White Cube Mason's Yard, London, 2026

White Cube Mason’s Yard presents “In the Light of False Suns”, an exhibition of new paintings by Manchester-based painter Louise Giovanelli. Taking its title from parhelia — the “false suns” created when sunlight refracts through ice crystals — the show returns to her signature curtains, hair, female screen idols and the cinematic kiss, and introduces a new subject: a large painting of a meat carcass.
