The changes in the skyline of London and New York have been illustrated by Lucinda Rogers and a new exhibition of her work at the.galley@oxo at Oxo Tower Wharf highlights the events of the past few months.

Rogers's drawings show both the changed and the unchanged in the evolving urban landscapes of each of these sprawling, vibrant cities which include the human activity at Ground Zero and giant billboards over SoHo in New York, while showing Borough Market and the rooftops of Spitalfields in London.

Working from life in pen, ink and watercolour, Rogers draws from the street scenes happening around her.

The centre for contemporary art and design at Oxo Tower Wharf, the.gallery@oxo, is a London landmark itself on the South Bank, with river views of central London and the City, and provides a perfect setting for this free exhibition.
