Group show at Hospital Club

Second on the list for Thursday 13th saw us at a special opening of a group show on the ground floor of the gallery of Hospital Club. Another fantastic show hosted by Factory Project. Some truly outstanding work by some gifted artists, most of whom were in attendance on the night.

This was my fav piece; Untitled 

(part of a series of 5 post-London riot paintings) 

in oil on hi-viz reflective material by Cosmo Sarson

Natalie's fav peice was by Jewel, but was unable to photograph it 

due to its reflective surface and full-on lighting

An awesome painting made to appear as a security mirror. 

Unsure who the artist was, but it was so current that all the paintings 

in the pic were in perfect mirror position on the walls reflected 

Jen's fav piece by uber-talented Fin DAC

The gallery was full of artists, critics and punters

We were lucky enough to get on the guest list for last fridays Factory Project at Red Bull Studios down in London Bridge. Great night of live painting, bands, art auctions and, of course, free bar. The night was hosted by Graffik Gallery, and we're going to another of these nights at their gallery in Portobello tonight (but that's another story).

Highlight of the night was meeting Fin DAC, an outstanding spray can artist, and a totally lovely bloke to boot. We loved the 2 works he had on exhibition (C215 inspired as they are friends and have worked together in France last year), and watching his live paint was inspiring. The thing that struck me about Fin was his friendly and informative nature - he would stop painting to answer questions and pose for photos, even as the deadline loomed.

Caught up with him and his girlfriend at the afterparty at Hospital Club in Covent Garden, and was surprised to learn that he only started spraying around 3 years ago.

Much respect Fin, you are a true genius.
