ORGAN THING: Some recently found Van Der Graaf yellow fever, a new Dieterich & Barnes video and the artcore of Tokyo’s Wombscape…

Organ thing? Things? The Thing? Been busy innit, over in all the fabric at Wall and Jones, Organ is pretty much an occasional side issue these day, not the big time eating monster of a thing is was back the last century. Here’s something that have been kicking around here waiting to be posted while…

ORGAN THING: Hiding art in a cabinet of curiosities at Wall And Jones

Wall And Jones, on the very busy Hackney Road, an old tailor’s shop on a street corner (just over the street from delightful fragrances of the Hackney City Farm and a stone’s throw from the flower pushers of Colombia Road). The two floors of the unassuming old shop has been the home, gallery and work…

ORGAN THING: Scott Hunt’s glorious Americana and those beautiful crack pots of Hollandaise…

Two more openings at East London’s rather awkwardly named New Art Projects. The  gallery has been making quite a mark over the last year or so, the relatively new space (on Sheep Lane, parallel to to the foodie infested Broadway Market and right by the Regent’s Canal over in Hackney). There’s been some outstanding art…

ORGAN THING: The full artist line-up for the 2016 Brick Lane Art Car Boot Fair announced

STOP PRESS: The full artist line-up for the 2016 Brick Lane Art Car Boot Fair has been officially announced this morning. Always one of the best days in terms of the ever busy London art Calendar, a day when art let’s down his or her hair, smiles and engages in a great big Brick Lane…

ORGAN THING: Never mind the watermelons, have some Stereocilia. Another dash along Clare Street to the sweet shop…

Watermelon rage and a fractured set of words from a few weeks ago that never got as far as being posted here and that really wouldn’t be fair to Stereocilia. Who are Stereocilla? Well they might just be the antidote to vibrant pinks for your wall, well no, Big ‘N are, Big ‘N are the…

ORGAN PREVIEW: John Lee Bird, one more encore, there’s always one more painting…

John Lee Bird, back for a sixth time? Will it be the last one? He said it would be but then he also said there’s always one more person he really needs to paint. The Before Encore series of paintings has been evolving for something like ten years now and the sixth exhibition happens in…

ORGAN THING: Stik doing things, Saint Agnes doing things…

Organ Thing Of The Day? We’re in a rush today, a right 2112 of a day, places to be, things to paint, moving pictures, making the rounds in a telephone booth… a quick parish notice or two for today, Stik doing things, Saint Agnes doing things…. “It was only because of Homerton, St. Mungo’s hostel…

May 14, 2016 in ART, MUSIC, STREET ART.

ORGAN THING: Street art on gallery walls, skateboards, wildcats and “smashing it” in East London…

A quick Thursday night walk around the block then, a quick stroll through the pollution and the ever-changing colours of the Hackney Road, past the various buildings closed down by the greed of the gentrifiers and off to an opening night of a gallery or two.  Last night was mostly about artists who, on the…

May 13, 2016 in ART, STREET ART.

ORGAN THING: Fresh Kayo Dot, they’ve done it again, of course they have!

Hang on, stop the big red bus, stop all iconic talk and whatever else we were on about earlier, tiger teeth or something like that. Stop everything, this is instantly recognisable yet rather gloriously unrecognisable (brilliantly so). I do like a band who never make the same record twice, took his distinctive voice to really…
