As I
briefly mentioned in my previous post, I'm offering a discounted price on my
original paintings and drawings (created on plywood wall plaques, the materials
of which are recycled from V&A Museum packing crates) at the 'Mars and Beyond' exhibition shop (The Bargehouse, OXO Tower Wharf, Bargehouse Street,
London SE1 9PH) which runs until 15th March 2020.
Instead of the usual £150-200 price I'll be selling them for
£120 each, just for the duration of the exhibition. If
you can't easily find them in the shop (table space is limited so not all
available artworks are permanently displayed) then just ask one of the staff,
who can get them out for you.
The
series was originally conceived as a limited run of mini artworks for Rob Pruitt's Artists' Flea Market pop-up project which took place at the A Plus A Gallery during the opening week of the 2015 Venice Biennale. Rob Pruitt is an
American artist who organises similar art events all around the world;
including a 2009 Xmas Artists' Flea Market at the Tate Modern, London, where the
likes of YBA artists Tracey Emin and Gavin Turk manned stalls, selling their
wares.
This
'Taster Menu' series was intended as a way of offering a fun and affordable way
of collecting small but original pieces from my body of work, without having to
pay the usual £2000-£20000 gallery prices. The
majority of the paintings and drawings in this series are executed on 20 x 15
cm blocks of 1.8 cm thick plywood, and designed to hang unframed, as wall
plaques. Commissions
are available for similar versions of all sold out pieces from the series.
I'm also
selling a limited run of 17 different coloured cotton tote bags (around 4-5
bags in each colour) featuring a black and white screen printed version of my
'Davincipus' design; based upon Leonardo da Vinci's 'Vitruvian Man' drawing.
Though, in my take on it, the limbs have been replaced with tentacles. There
are also a couple of my 'Swirl Skull' tote bags (printed on unbleached organic
cotton) left. Each bag if available at the 'Mars and Beyond' exhibition shop
for the princely sum of £10.
