BLANK CANVAS-What you want what you really really want

In recent weeks the delights on Londinum have consumed me, after much deliberation and predominantly the lack of actually saving savings, the desire to relocate to a small village town with a catchy name in is no longer on my action List. My joining Pollocks in recent months has been an immense experience, Co curating and organising has been stressful beyond the relief that alcohol and love can provide. The launch night was graced with 4 body painted life models by up and coming creatives. It was a hugely satisfying event.

Graced with the leaders of the contempory art world, we manged to keep the paps in their snail homes outside for a good few hours. It was pretty much like a game of human tetris all the way to the bar, and the blank canvas looked like a Pollock within the first hour.
Greatly soothing to see everyone putting their souls into our huge canvas to document the progress of the week long event. If you havn't already come have a look, we are based at 1-2 Carnaby Street until Saturday the 5th July. Its Free for all. Red Bull did a good job of getting constant advertising as most are graced with the foul energy drink, oh the delights of overly keen marketing ploys. Anywho, everyones having fun, we have performances at 6.30 everyday from the likes of Flash Louis and Laura Marling and fingers crossed as the Mystery Jets have had words and almost promised to pop up during the week.

We invited the guys from DayDream Network to create murals on the top floor, they've done a great job, recently bringing their magazine to print.www.daydreamnetwork.com Great artwork and no adverts. fantastic!
