Viewing Room

All Visual Arts

Viewing Room

AVA exhibitions rarely disappoint and the Viewing room was no exception.

Held in the crypt at the church at number 1 Marylebone 

the atmosphere is suitably dark and gloriously eerie.

I first stumbled upon all visual arts in 2011 during Frieze week

with an exhibition entitled

Vanitas: The Transience of Earthly Pleasures
It completely blew me away and introduced me to the likes of
Kate MccGwire and Charles Matton

Kate's large scale installations are deliciously dark and deeply powerful,
while Charles Matton works in miniature
constructing incredible detailed environments set into a glass box.
They really must be seen to be believed.
This annual event is one of my

favourites on the arts calendar topped only by Frieze.

Unus Safardiar 
Spectacularly detailed sculpture 

Jason Brooks

Super- hyper- realist painter.

Believe it or not this is an oil painting.

you may be more familiar with his piece in the national portrait gallery

of Nobel Prize winner Sir Paul Nurse

Charles Matton 

A master

Creating extraordinary miniature environments

Carolein Smit

 Following the Vanitas theme

  her work is fabulously macabre.

Kate MccGwire

Deliciously dark.

Giant Polar bear roars to save the Arctic

Massive Polar bear puppet walks to protect the arctic for Greenpeace

This enormous puppet reminds me of the 'Sultans Elephant' 
which walked the streets of London in May 2006.

The Polar bear which is manned by people will walk through London as part protest, 
part performance, in response to the increased exploitation of the Arctic waters 
and will be the focal point for the UK leg of the Greenpeace event on september 15th, 2013.
