Without much expositional dialog, Hogg paints the complicated picture of relationship brilliantly using other means. The result is exceptional.

| Feb 24, 2021

A work that's tedious to the point of abstraction, and follows a through-line of rhetorical obviousness you can trace to Hogg's previous films - in particular, Unrelated.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Nov 18, 2018

Seeing Exhibition is like spying through a window on our most glamorous neighbors moving about their flat: it's kind of kinky, kind of fun.

| Original Score: 3 stars | Sep 1, 2014

Hogg maintains a probing detachment and a cold intimacy. As befits the title, she presents her subjects like specimens in an exhibit, with a rigorously structured style that is non-judgmental and unsparing.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Aug 28, 2014

It's a very brave and unapologetically cerebral approach to have taken, but it often feels like there's just too little there, too few life rings thrown to the average, non-art-student viewer, to keep us engaged.

| Original Score: C | Aug 24, 2014

A house is not only a living and work space for a woman, but a reflection of her thoughts and emotions. . . as she slowly adjusts to life change through intriguing images.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Jul 3, 2014

With Exhibition, Joanna Hogg advances her impressive directing style with a visually striking - if decidedly chilly - look at a couple reaching stalemate in their stifling London home.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Jun 22, 2014

If "Exhibition" lacks conventionally developed characters and dialogue, it is visually enthralling.

| Jun 19, 2014

A film that's all airy, abstract pretentiousness.

| Jun 17, 2014

Hogg's third feature magnifies the relationship between people and the spaces they live in with a keen eye for the way the two tend to blend together.

| Original Score: A- | Jun 17, 2014

The importance of Location, Location, Location in the British psyche cannot be overemphasised. Joanna Hogg's brilliantly austere and intimate portrait of a marriage recognises this.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Jun 16, 2014

Taut, clinical and dryly clever.

| Jun 16, 2014

The whole thing teeters between very boring and completely fascinating.

| Jun 16, 2014

Beautifully shot with an acute eye for crisp composition, this intimate mood piece explores the subtle intricacies and low-level power struggles of long-term love in forensic detail.

| Jun 16, 2014

There's considerable talent on display in Exhibition, but it's the kind of thing people mean when they use the term "art film" as a pejorative.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 15, 2014

More bourgeois angst from Joanna Hogg in an abstract form that should enthral fans, but may exasperate casual viewers.

| Original Score: 4/5 | May 19, 2014

Albertine and Gillick are superb for untrained actors in a distinctly naturalist-style drama. Hogg, however, is the real star of the show.

| May 2, 2014

Exhibition proclaims itself to be an assertively front-facing film: an object knowingly placed on view, inviting or challenging us to contemplate it from outside.

| Apr 28, 2014

Exhibition reaffirms Hogg's status as a distinctive, singular and challenging voice of British cinema.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 27, 2014

A follow-up to the terrific, unconventional Archipelago that continues Hogg's ascent as one of Britain's more interesting independent filmmakers.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 25, 2014
