Irreverent street art . . . as promised
The British election is looming and true to my promise in a recent blog post “I could . . . vote”, I went searching for more new political graffiti in Brick Lane, London’s mecca for up-to-the-minute street art proclamations and protestations. Continue reading Irreverent street art . . . as promised
Janet Werner, the girls and the MAC
These are portraits of women I want to invite to my birthday party. They will come wired with harlequin mindsets, Bristol Cream, spikes and all kitted out in the unique fashion sensibilities of the irrepressible Québécoise. Continue reading Janet Werner, the girls and the MAC
I COULD . . .vote
In an English politician’s world there are always detractors, and their ire is nowhere more visible – apart from the London daily newspaper’s op-ed cartoons, than on the walls and hoarding boards of the inner city streets. Continue reading I COULD . . .vote
Logos + Signatures + Tags – oh my!
Once upon a time I collected signatures of famous artists. After that, it was a fixation with Les Nabis, a movement founded by Pierre Bonnard and Jean-Édouard Vuillard, artists who could magically resolve the extremely busy backgrounds of their paintings. Then came the fascination with renaissance masters and their rendering of hands and feet, which naturally led to their shoes. Continue reading Logos + Signatures + Tags – oh my!

Just like a Virgin?
Learning things. It happens. Either by intent, by accident, or by bicycling around the Mexican town of (only-one-s) Progreso in the Yucatán. It’s a place that honours family, the citizens are quick to smile, and really cute children squeal at … Continue reading Just like a Virgin?
Suspense, Hanging and Fear of Falling in Street Art
These works may hint at improbably good outcomes, but the visual tension still leaves us with just a faint expectation that some may just not survive the journey.

Yeah, I’m free, I’m free-fallin'”

Joyce Pensato “FORGETTABOUT IT”
19 May – 24 June 2017 LISSON GALLERY, 67 Lisson Street, London While making the rounds of London’s art venues last June, skulking down back streets and dark underpasses, cruising through museums, galleries and pop ups, I wondered “Is it possible to exhaust this city’s mammoth store of artwork?” It is a bleak possibility – but then again, if there really are charcoal dust fairies, they will never let that happen. I was so completely beside myself after learning of the appearance of Mickey, Homer, and Batman, my childhood kin, that a pilgrimage to the Lisson Gallery for the family … Continue reading Joyce Pensato “FORGETTABOUT IT”
L’EXPO DE OUF!!!
NÎMES, FRANCE. There is something very soap-opera-ish about travelling – those niggling unknown eventualities; like coincidences and chance meetings, language and barriers, inconveniences and crowds, irritations and line-ups, a winning resourcefulness and . . . ultimately – great art, wonderful food, and air conditioning.
