Hev's Lulu Exhibition


This week has been spent invigilating Hev's latest exhibition, at the Christmas Steps Gallery in Bristol, and a lovely looking thing it is. Half of it is a selection of Anubis work, including a photo series taken last year at the Venice Biennale, and the other half is her new work in progress on the subject of Lulu. Lulu is the subject of one of her recent articles and a book that's underway, and the exhibition includes a new sculpture based on Lulu, and a set of canvasses based on the photos that have come from Hev's research.


How's this for a work in progress from the work in progress? These images of Lulu, and the enigmatic El Nino, are printed on actual pages from Times newspapers from 1889. Sweet.


The Private View was an absolute triumph, with a marvellous turnout of people, bringing together friends in a great party atmosphere, along with Heather's new contacts from Circus 250 and the gallery world. All in all a great success. And I even got my RCA Secret postcards drawn while we were there:
