Out and About : The Shoreditch side of the Moon

  

>Last Friday for the " Out & About " session, we were taken by Pr. Paul Bailey around Shoreditch, 

to have a look to one of the artistic poles of the city. 

Nothing to do ? Stop your drinking / smoking or gaming routine and get out on your feet... 

The session aim was to underline the importance of "keeping up to date" as designers 

and in doing so we were offered the possibility to view the work from artists which career

 has reached top levels; Nice to know that both the two galleries visited in the afternoon 

class are FREE !!! no tickets !! Just walk in and enjoy ... plus one of the place 

( INVENTORY STUDIO ) which is an advertising agency offers library services on a small

 but very cool range of books ( indeed focusing on your favourite subjects ).

KEMISTRY GALLERY : 

Is a unique place where you can find works from cutting edges UK and internationals designers .

Now exhibited is the work from the ex 

CBS art director Lou Dorfsman that my text editor underlines in red because it is so ignorant :) 

The exhibition which is contained in a small but cool room, features the biggest typographic work of all times; 

from Dorfsman titled : Gastrotypographicalassemblage.

Unfortunately, the original work ( a 11 metres long wooden board ), is now being restored.

The gallery expose a giant photo of the work that isn't the greatest thing ever

 .. but still impressive. 

Within the astonishing care for details which can still be perceived from the photographic 
reproduction, the work carries to the viewer a very intense groove. It is one of these masterpieces 
showing a life (spent up on a subject), 
comparable in my opinion to the masterpiece of a bluesman.

   

                         

                         

Here are some posters made by L.D

for CBS network.

I could have shown you the classic 

CBS logo design but in reality I think 

these posters are more interesting. 

Centred layout aren't often that interesting to me but I have to admit that his work 

it's really clean and beautiful, plus the posters are enriched by the aged paper .... stylish ....

THE WHITE CUBE Gallery, is currently exhibiting the work of Mark Bradford a LA based american artist. The reason to do not publish any picture is  that I prefer you to check out his website Pinocchioinonfire.org /I am telling you ... despite the music which some may not enjoy ( I did )  the website is really cool. The webspace features interviews with the artist .... good choice !!Bradford started his main projects during the early 90s and has produced in 2010 a work titled "You are nobody ( until somebody kills you ). 

  

M>B. shares or better recycle works from graphic designers collected around the studio allowing them to gain new life and meaning through his work. It is interesting how posters with other related materials becomes part of the artist work, being technically utilised in the process as well as inspiring the artist too.
