Art Events Thursday 11th November Onwards

Thursday BIGNESS today! 6 decent shows! See you at one or all of them...

Some Anatomies of Melancholy is Best Ever’s first full solo show, and will be held at London's prestigious Blackall Studios.
Featuring all new works on wall, canvas and in 3D, this special exhibition will demonstrate the duo’s exquisite
mastery of both photorealism and abstraction, beautifully executed in aerosol spray paint. Some Anatomies of Melancholy
sees the pair branch out into three dimensions as their unique style is explored in installation pieces, provoking
thought not only through their presentation of difficult and sometimes disturbing subject matter, but raising the bar
when it comes to defining the boundaries of street and fine art.

In 2005 he began working on character based, illustrative work which
carries a very unique abstract style, rooted in methods picked up from
years of painting in the streets.The first characters on walls started to
appear in the camden area alongside Mighty Monkey and the London Frontline
collective which instantly lit up the area and inspired it’s inhabitants.

Panik has painted all over the world from NYC to Thailand to Cuba to all
over Europe and exhibited his work in Amsterdam.

It’s a thin line between Heaven and here is a survey of the talent that emerged from the Sir John Cass MA Photography department over the last year. The work that teeters on the edge of uncomfortable and intriguing seems to reflect the very sense that we have when watching over Jeff’s courtyard in Rear Window, the oh-so-naughty yet unavoidable intrigue with other people’s lives. The group of photographers exhibited share more than having just studied together. Each panders to our desires and offers the viewer up a keyhole into their working practice and their lives.

“We have all become a race of Peeping-Toms” Stella, Rear Window (1954), Alfred Hitchcock

'Bad Reception'
By Will Barras
29.10.10 - 14.11.10
“When I used to phone up Duncan (Mr Jago) he would have to go and stand on a chair in his kitchen to get reception, so I painted 'Bad Reception', the first painting I made for this body of work and the title of the show. You can see a character standing on the ledge outside his flat on the 25th floor. Does he have to stand on the ledge to get phone reception, has he just been given terrible news and he is about to jump, is he spying on the penthouse opposite, or does he just like standing on the ledge?”

Bad Reception will show case never before exhibited works, painted over the course of the past two years, by Will Barras. Featuring stunning paintings in acrylic, spraypaint, oil and ink on canvas and linen as well as a brand new limited edition hand pulled screen print by the artist.
