Cathy Lomax

Cathy Lomax (born 1963) is a London artist, curator and director of the Transition Gallery. Lomax is currently studying for a phd in Film Studies.

Cathy Lomax is an artist mainly known for her figurative paintings. She has a BA Fine Art from London Guildhall University (2000), and an MA from Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design (2002). She said about painting:

She is the director of Transition Gallery in east London which focuses on new contemporary art by both emerging and established artists.

She also publishes and edits two magazines: Arty, an idiosyncratic publication featuring artwork and thoughts by a group of invited contributors, and Garageland, a glossy art and culture publication which examines pertinent art themes such as beauty, machismo or nature.

Arty was started in April 2001 as a reaction against established art magazines; it is written and illustrated by artists. It was described by her colleague Alex Michon as: an antidote to the kind of dry academic writing about art which was becoming increasingly elitist and out of touch with the kind of riky tiky, hand-made and heartfelt work which was appearing in minuscule galleries throughout the land.

Artist Stella Vine has commented on Lomax:

In 2016 Cathy Lomax was announced winner of the inaugural 'Contemporary British Painting Prize' for her painting "Black Venus".

The Image Duplicator (Contemporary Art Projects, London, 2009)
