To cap off the first year in the splendid surroundings of our new Rathbone Place gallery, Lazarides will be bringing some of the biggest names in street art to London for a spectacular group show where much of the art will be nowhere near the cosy confines of our glamorous gallery.
Titled
Grifters, the December event will focus on all new work from the Outsider artists in all manner of mediums, from sculpture to installation, canvas to collage, paper to poster, performance to photography. Alongside the gallery offerings, a series of paintings and street sculptures will begin to pop up all over the City from the end of November right through December, so keep your eyes peeled (unless you work for the council, in which case we don’t know what you’re talking about, we’ve never heard of any of these artists, ever).
Those of you sharing a combined love of art and staying warm, worry not, for you’ll be relieved to hear that the Rathbone Place gallery will be turning up the heat in more ways than one, and handing over all four floors of the gallery to our Outsiders group of artists, with a special installation from Lucy McLauchlan covering the entire staircase.
The exhibitions, street interventions, and our
brand new website launch will take place in our galleries at Lazarides 11 Rathbone Place, Fitzrovia, London, W1T 1HR, and SHOP at Lazarides 8 Greek Street, Soho, London, W1D 4DG, as well as out and about across the streets of London from
4th December until
16th January 2010.
You can see a video of some of our artists in action on our
video channel at Babelgum.
We would like to thank
Londonewcastle for supplying many of the 'street canvas' locations around London for our artists.
Special thanks to Robert Soning & Rohan Ames for all your help.
