FORTHCOMING EXHIBITION AND EVENTS AT BLOC…

2 – 17 July
RYAN MOSLEY
EIGHT YEARS AGO AND BEFORE
Private View: Fri 1 July, 7-9pm
Artist Talk: Sun 17 July, 2pm

Mosley's work attempts to reconstruct the vague and non-physical aspects of modern life. Through the painted scene the familiar and the irreconcilable become integrated in the surface of the work. A snap shot from a film, a book or even a dream become critical signifiers in the artists own enquiry.


30 July – 21 Aug
THE LITTLE ARTISTS
LICK YOUR SELVES
Private View: Fri 29 July, 7-9pm
Artist Talk: Sun 21 Aug, 2pm

The Little Artists’ launch their new work exclusively at BLOCspace. LICK YOUR SELVES will be a chilled extravaganza, a feeding-frenzy based on Marc Quinn's infamous sculpture 'SELF' (a cast of his head in his own frozen blood). The Little Artists will be flogging fruit-flavour ice lolly versions of this notorious icon of Brit Art, dressed as vendors in their blue and orange uniforms.


BLOCassembly

A series of evening events that aim to provide a platform for new and experimental work by performance, sound and multi-media artists. The first will take place in July, and others will follow every three months.
