Bienvenue!
My Fela !
With the canter increasingly picking up pace into a gallop destined for the 2012 London Olympic Games, it's getting tasty. Property prices, hoxton quiffs and mega Straford shopping centers are on the up! So when I was invited to a most unique and spacious gallery exhibition on Fish Island in the Olympic Village by my good friend Will Chamberlain, the curator; I prepared a small battalion for the trip across town. Hackney Wick is home to the highest concentration of artist studios in the world, as well as the annual Hackney Wicked Art Festival. Forman's Smokehouse Gallery http://smokehousegallery.org/ is an art project space overlooking the London 2012 Olympic Park, and was founded to provide artists with a high profile platform from which to introduce their work to new audiences.
Owned by H. Forman & Sons, most famous for the world's finest smoked salmon, speciality fish, and bespoke prepared food established in 1905.
The exhibition was such a success that I even bought a digital art piece by the London based Ukrainian/Russian genius that is Vitali V http://www.vitaliv.info/
Great art, futuristic venue and the forthcoming games makes this strategy a winning campaign!
