STREET ART 2

Looking for Wall Art has become a bit of a interest for me recently, whilst out and about in London I keep an eye open for Art to snap. Today I spotted some stencil wall art which I thought was quite nice!

Still Life

A most lovely still life.....

STREET ART Donkey Hat

I spotted a ASVP poster high up on a wall, on the way down to Notting Hill. Did a bit of searching to find out a bit more about the Artist or Artists as these posters are popping up all over the place from Brooklyn to Notting Hill Gate and there is not much to find except pictures of these amazing posters which I guess say more than than words. Quirky and clever, I hope I spot some more around London. If anyone knows where leave it in the comment section. Ta

The Lion and the Unicorn

Paying homage to the original 1951 Lion and Unicorn Exhibition, this 2011 Installation by Gitta Gschwendtner works with the original themes which are reinterpreted. Lion = Bravery and Courage and Unicorn = Imagination and Independance. Gitta worked with 50 refugees whose spoken and written poems are on pieces of paper in the Installation. Worth the visit the Installation is both beautiful and fragile with paper flapping in the wind and birds flying in the sky. The exhibition is part of the Southbank Hayward Gallery and Visual Arts Programme.
