Fighting Fire With Ice Cream
Alex Chinneck

Artist Alex Chinneck celebrates everyday construction materials by enlivening them with a new purpose and appearance. For this exhibition the artist has removed them from their utilitarian context and reshaped them into abstract art. Inspired by the landscape that surrounds him, this body of work reflects the artists time spent living and working within London’s industrial peripheries. Through his art the unrefined materials of basic construction are given a second life.

quick/kwik/

Adverb: At a fast rate; quickly: "She’ll find some place where she can make money quicker"; "Get out, quick!"

Adjective: Moving fast or doing something in a short time: "some artists are particularly quick learners"; "he was always quick to express his thoughts"

 
Following on from the successful show last year entitled "Hackney Wickipedia", Artist-Curator Leo Cohen is proud to present "KWICK LOVE", a show which brings together a spectrum of hard working London-based artists who are all active at different paces. Whilst all are at different stages with their work and careers, being curated in a non-bureaucratic environment/pop-up space allows these boundaries to merge enabling works to be explored simultaneously, judged purely on expression, innovation, ambition and integrity. Whilst Hackney Wicked festival is a popular three day art festival, it is a short time period, but enough for a KWICK LOVE experience.

ARTISTS:  Lucia Rivero, Sydney Southam, Luke Brennan, James Boman, Haruka Hashigachi, Jonny Morgan, Dave Chalkley, Anna Louise Hale, Leo Cohen, Henry Mackay Bull, Ben Westley Clarke, David Jones, Patricia Delgado, Alison Thomson, Babette Semmer, Ben Nathan, Gisele Nzolameso.

Label de Salis   presents Sottoportego
21 July – 21 August
Rodolph de Salis has used his Label de Salis vehicle to transform the Schwartz Gallery Project Space into a depository. Glittering in hyperspace, it is a carte-blanche melange of objects found, purchased and inherited; a festival of re-evaluation, appropriation and juxtapositioning. The installation blurs the boundaries between gallery, living and storage space.
