Ron Arad

Ron Arad

Ron Arad: Restless explores three decades of Arad’s work from his early post-punk approach to his highly polished sculptural furnishings, via his architectural designs and mass produced pieces. The show also features a dramatic installation made from cutting edge LED technology which really needs to be seen in the flesh to be fully appreciated.

I consider this show a real 'must see', I was slightly dubious about whether it would impress but had no need to worry. The work is diverse and truly stunning and the wealth of support information and the planning of the exhibition is exemplary.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank The Barbican Art Centre for inviting me :)

Digital Blackbook



A collection of un-curated gestural data captured via bespoke software by Evan Roth.

Elegantly simplistic yet mesmerising... similar to some of the work by the Graffiti Research Lab.

Martin Böttger's final degree work in Visual Communication and New Media - impressive! His Flickr sets reveal a lot more beautiful abstract experimentation too...

Ronzo's labour of love - Crunchy The Credit Crunch Monster is up!

I've been watching him slowly come together over the last couple of months, so it's wonderful to finally see he's found a home watching over East London.

Wow! Truly inspiring sculptures - they remind me a little of some of my abstract work (except that they're real and not digital!).

Pablo Valbuena

Pablo Valbuena

Investigating space-time not only as a three dimensional environment, but as space in transformation. Two layers are produced: the physical layer, which controls the real space and shapes the volumetric base that serves as a support for a virtual projected layer that allows control of the transformation and sequentiality of space-time.

Little People

Photographic documentation of street installations using manipulated train set figurines - left to to be discovered by passers-by observant enough to notice their discreet presence.

These really amaze me - it must be fantastic to actually come across one by accident.

There is a book available soon (which I think would be well worth getting) and also a treasure hunt to coincide with the launch - sounds like fun!

The Brick Lane Gallery

I saw this in the window of The Brick Lane Gallery, not sure who the artist is, but I imagine it must be part of the Free for Wall! exhibition.
