Mail Art

I am taking part in 2 Mail Art exhibitions this month:

For the first one "Mail Art - Post Ray Johnson" currently showing at the A&D Gallery in Baker Street, I asked my friend Roderick Mills to collaborate (see above)

"Mail Art, also called Postal or Correspondence Art, is a worldwide cultural movement
that began in the early 60s and as the name suggests involves sending art unprotected through the postal system. Outside of the formal world of fine art, and often using humour and collaboration, Mail Art is seen as the precursor of what is known as
Urban Art."
For this exhibition, the gallerists have asked a wide range of artists from a variety of disciplines, to create Mail Art, often for the first time.

The proceeds will go towards equipping Teenage Cancer Trust's new Day Care Centre."

Exhibition is on until 22nd October - 51 Chiltern Street W1U


The second exhibition is a Postcard Art Project curated by Geoffrey Harrison who asked 32 artists/designers from the Bloomsbury area to collaborate with over 1000 creatives. Designer Andreas Pohancenik is one of these 32 and he kindly aksed me to participate in the project. It all starts tomorrow at the Orange Dot Gallery to coincide with the Bloomsbury Festival and I am eager to discover the final display!

Little World Theatre

Here is a new company "Little World Theatre" for which I did the logo and illustration. They will offer multilingual drama workshops in schools across the UK and promise to be a lot of fun to work/play with. There website is under construction but I will make sure to let you know when it all kicks off!

MUZE

Tomorrow comes out the new issue of the beautiful MUZE magazine published by Bayard Press in France.

Featured in the mag are 3 short stories including the intriguing "Charlene and Trudy go shopping" by Kate ATkinson for which I created the illustrations. A dreamy atmosphere and a quirky narrative made this job a real bliss...

TENT and the launch of 3 new prints!

My agent GAS art will be representing me at TENT next week where we will launch the first 3 "DEESSES", from a brand new series of large scale prints
Sneeky preview just here.

Please come and see them in the flesh at The Old Truman Brewery 22-25 September.

Atelier Rose & Gray

This fairly new gallery and workshop in Lancashire is now stocking my prints amongst other fabulous artists including Anna Marrow, Anita Klein and Stephen Chambers.

Express commission for L'Hebdo

L'Hebdo is a Suiss weekly newspaper who asked me to illustrate a review by Isabelle Falconnier on the new books this year in Switzerland. 4 images to illustrate 4 categories of writers in the spotlight at the moment:" the Heavy weights", "the Newcomers", " the Confirmations" and " the Swiss".

Out today!

Simen Johan

This has been a revelation lately. Simon Johan is a photographer whose work mixes traditional film techniques with digital effects. It is up to the viewer to find where the real stops and where the imaginary starts. Ambiguous, poetic and sometimes funny, his images never stop to startle me.

Castor + Pollux is a marvellous shop/gallery on Brighton seafront. Passionate about design and illustration they stock cutting edge prints from numerous artists (Anita Klein, Charlie Harper, Jonny Hannah and Quentin Blake to name a few) as well as pottery, jewellery and books.
