We dragged Kev along to the the Affordable Art Fair on Thursday and went to town on the free wine. It seemed a little more international" than previous events.For example Art Vitam are a gallery from Miami Beach exhibiting the vinyl on plexiglass works of Juliette Clovis. Urban Art regular Martin Grover was represented by Wills Art Warehouse. We had a nice little chat with photographer Barry Cawston on the Drugstore Gallery stand.
The David Lilford gallery were generously handing out little books of Elizabeth Akehurst's work. The Art Movement had some nice long exposure photos by Dominic Harris. Also liked Pete McKee's "mod art", Feona Ness' abstracts and Chuck Elliot's Kinetic [both at Transistor] - Francis Elliot's Cheshire Cat, Trajectory [above], pic was also on show there.
Best of the bunch though was Sam Burford's work on the Fiumano Fine Art stand, which I though Kev was going to get talked into buying for a moment. Sam's work is known as Transient Crystallisation. "Using proprietary light collection techniques onto 35mm film, the work crystallizes selected transient material and information - generating a form of simultaneous cinema, where you can see everything at once, as a static entirety - revealing hidden structures and temporal patternings. The work ultimately attempts to bring together the forms of modern cinema, notions of memory and the tradition of painting".
The Ballardian Home Movie competition is over and I never got round to entering. Check the site out and see the winner. If you're in London before Easter have a squint at the Gerry Hofstetter's Lindt Light Show on the Shell Building. Make a donation to Childline and you may blag yourself a Lindt chocolate bunny. The Lindt Light Show is on every evening from 11-24 March, 6.30-8.30pm and you can see the show from Waterloo Bridge, Southbank, and the Northbank.
Underground: London's Hidden Infrastructure at New London Architecture looks worth a peek as well... Doubt there will be chocolate at that though.
Penguin's Digital Fiction is up and running next Tuesday, same day as the ICA Fundamentals Of Digital Art event.
