Quotes

“Painters have lost out to fried eggs and formaldehyde in the battle for public attention waged by conceptual artists over the past decade. But not for much longer, if Sacha Jafri has his way. Sacha Jafri is on a mission to restore painting to the forefront of British art. Could he put Hirst and Emin in the Shade?
The New York Times


“Sacha Jafri has brought back the skill of painting to contemporary British Art. Having truly entered the circle of the art world elite over the past year, Sacha’s new collection has been eagerly anticipated by collectors, critics and admirers alike”.
BBC 2 News Feature


“Guest of honour [at the ‘Jafri Meets Warhol’ exhibition-Singapore] Liu Thai Ker, who is chairman of the National Arts Council, said the exhibition will take Singapore one step further in its ambition to become a global city of the arts.”
The Business Times - Asia


“Sacha seems to have taken the work of Jackson Pollock one step further as well as understand the ‘line’ of Degas and express the spirit and movement of Kandinsky. His work is truly exciting and, now, highly collected”
Evening Standard Magazine



“Sacha is capable of doing something that will surprise us all. He is technically very strong. There’s a real battle going on in his paintings to reconcile the tensions between form and narrative. The fact that he’s chosen to put himself out there and grow up in public creates a buzz and makes him a very exciting artist to watch.”
Financial Times ‘How To Spend It’ Magazine
