D&AD: I'll be there

I am so part of this industry, look my face, there in that wall of 'industry type' and student faces. Oh yeah, I have officially made it. Sarcasm aside, it's a good idea, in an age of apathy and redundancy a little bit of solidarity and community spirit is welcomed. Sign up now for D&AD New Blood

Private View, Monday 29th June, 6pm.

See you there!

Jon Burgerman

I went to the opening of Mr Burgerman's exhibition, Because I can't sit still last night. It was lovely to finally meet him and chat about his work, since he's been a Flickr friend for quite a while. I also asked him about his experience on Blue Peter last week, where he worked on a live mural, I'm very jealous indeed!

He had something called an 'anxiety wall' full of his doodly critters and you could buy them and they're then randomly selected for you when the show closes. So we'll see what I get for my money...

More pictures of the event here, thank you Toby for accompanying me, great night all round.

Rough Lunch

I finally went to see the exhibition at Rough Trade this lunchtime, it's a 2 minute walk from my office so I had no excuse. Joyful Bewilderment was something of a disappointment, you couldn't get near the artwork to appreciate it, but it made a pretty backdrop to my luncheon.

Minestrone soup and The Times in case you were wondering.

Beards, Crayonlegs and Rough Trade

If you happen to be around Brick Lane today Crayonlegs (Duncan and Sarah) are showing some of their work at Rough Trade for an exhibition called Joyful Bewilderment.
