“COME AND GET IT” - PAUL BOWER EXHIBITION AT SANDERSON

come-and-get-it-2low COME AND GET IT - PAUL BOWER EXHIBITION AT SANDERSON

On Wednesday 17th August, Sanderson will host the latest exhibition of graphic works by Paul Bower, curated and produced by Pocko. Come And Get It features a collection of screen and block-prints by the South-London based artist. Here, Bower exhibits his favourite “lost, but not forgotten” song lyrics, and an array of instant, throw-away messages. His typographical posters play with the familiar and the recognisable in popular culture; twisting the meaning of words to amuse and confuse the audience.

Bower’s signature style balances between candy-floss characters, raw typography and razor-sharp wit. His technique is varied, but always packs a punch, using a range of lino-cut and screen prints, acrylic paint, ballpoint pen, paper-cuts, stenciling, and collage to create his pieces. In an age where media is saturated with overly-polished imagery, Paul Bower’s somewhat “unfinished” approach proves a breath of fresh air.

 
Private View is on 17th August from 6-8 pm, and the exhibition will run until Wednesday 31st, 2011 at the Art Space - Sanderson Hotel, 50 Berners Street, London W1T 3NG.

 

Olaf Hajek - Solo Exhibition at Johanssen Gallery in Berlin

If you are in Berlin this summer, you don’t want to miss Olaf’s exquisite solo show at the Johanssen Gallery, on display until July 20th. Focusing exclusively on painting, Olaf’s illustrations reveal a peculiar luminosity. They are simple and clear, and each drawing seems to hide an own private mystery which contributes a dose of fairytale to them. A range of new work from Olaf’s show has been updated in his portfolio

We are so proud to present our latest exhibition: No understanding between the brain and the hands.

The show is a collaboration between our Photographers and Illustrators and it is inspired by Metropolis, the 1927 silence science fiction film created by Fritz Lang. Questioning the relationship that we share with the city, the joining of our amazing artists has resulted in a striking collection of images which challenge our place within today’s metropolis.

The show is at the Kemistry Gallery on 43 Charlotte Road, Shoreditch London EC2A 3PD from the 26th of February till the 4th of April.
