CHARLELIE EXHIBITION @ NANCY 10.12.14

 "Inspiration comes from everywhere"- Charlelie


               

Charlelie's work is explained in no other way than incredible. This was an exhibition that I visited last year and one that is never far from my thoughts... Charlelie is a french artist who has permanently moved to New York creating utterly spectacular art work. He mixes photography and painting whilst also expressing himself through sculpture, writing and music.  I loved the way he intertwines his photographic visuals with extension painting creating such exciting and alive art. His New York industrial landscapes have such a buzz to them, with so much movement, life, noise, and arousal of the senses... you can almost smell those cinnamon pretzels chilling on the street food stands.

INNER CITY OOZ, Jack & Archy Marshall

Visited: 24.09.14  'The brain is an industrial soundscape'-Archy Marshall I visited this gallery last September, it was displaying from the 5-27th and one of the COOLEST and most interesting exhibitions that I have seen. Jack and Archy Marshall aka Mistr Gone and King Krule displayed their exhibition here at the Display Gallery, the first of music, visual art and performances marking their arrival as a new, original and real voice in the world of contempo, topical and uber modern art. Mistr Gone is an artist from South East London who works with painting, illustration, drawing and photography. Within his work he tries to recapture and achieve the magic and fascination of a daily normal routine. His art is a continuous study of everyday life. He has created all the cover art for King Krule's albums who is a singer, producer and songwriter from South East London.

MUSEE PICASSO PARIS 15.11.14

'I don't believe in accidents. There are only encounters in history. There are no accidents.' 'I paint objects as I think them, not as I see them.' 'Only put off until tomorrow what you are willing to die having left undone.' 'Learn the rules like a pro, you you can break them like an artist.' 'If I paint a wild horse, you might not see the horse... but surely you will see the wildness.' PICASSO An artist's philosophy can start to be unraveled in the things that they say and what they regard as important. Visiting the Picasso Museum in Paris back last November, I came to realise the extraordinary amount of work that Picasso had created and churned out throughout his life and the array of very different styles throughout his course of painting and creation. Picasso, most known for his cubist period, was an artist not only of talent, but also of intelligence, being able to adapt his style and work, keeping up w

SAATCHI GALLERY... AKA Favourite Art Gallery EVER

 Visited: 03/01/15 The Saatchi Gallery up in Sloane Square ALWAYS has new, contemporary, fabulous pieces of Art (Art with a capital because it IS an important subject of society and life). This first photo is from a section of an oil on canvas painting done by the artist Fang Lijun, which is untitled done in 2010-2011, 360,250cm and so it really is a huuuuuge painting. The huge scale makes this painting extremely impressive especially since it is so detailed with all the jewels which are painted so realistically and so exquisitely. Not only does, the immensity, detailing and realistic quality of the style make this painting so magical, but equally the colours are fantastically palleted and so vibrant which resulted in having me standing and staring for a good 20 minutes just being hypnotised by the piece, unable to remove my eyes from it, guided around the huge canvas on a journey, craning my neck with goggling eyes. The whole effect was just so mesmerising, having myself completel
