Yesterday Amar was nice enough to let me have a sneak preview of the Mitchy Bwoy exhibition at the Sauce Gallery in The Custard Factory. The official launch is from 5.30pm ‘until late’ tomorrow (Thursday 8th April) with what must be the first barbecue of the year:
We have secured a major scoop bringing Mitchy Bwoy to the city and showcasing his famous work. From album covers and illustrations, to famous fonts and fashion designs, fans will be able to see and purchase a range of prints, one-offs and originals. Synonymous with new music and club culture, London-based Mitchy Bwoy has worked with some of the best names in the industry. From his studio, the ‘post-graff’ artist has designed album covers and branding for the likes of Chase & Status, Ziggy Marley, Nitin Sawhney and Amp Fiddler.
There’s also an artist’s talk at Eastside Projects tomorrow evening with Grace Ndiritu, whose piece Still Life is currently on display as part of Curtain Show. The talk, introduced by Gavin Wade, is 6.30-8pm. Entry £3 (free to ‘Extra Special People’) email info@eastsideprojects.org to reserve a seat.
