My Idol - KING HORFÉ

This guy, in my opinion, is one of the best painters on the planet. When you compare his dedication and skill to most of the modern and contemporary artists of today, they don't have a patch on him. Soak it all in....ahhhhh.

My new phavourite fotographer

Lewis Koch
He uses text and images found in "the real world", which makes him my kind of guy! Take a look at these stunning photographs from a set called Touchless Automatic Wonder...











Andreas Zingerle - La Forma Interiore

La Forma Interiore (The Interior Shape)
Zingerle has created blow up dolls entirely out of cement. These sculptures have really interested me, as the cement looks soft and like suede. The way the blow up doll's material has set, as though it has been scrunched up and folded, makes the cement look like a totally different material. Love them!

Dubstep Warriors Listen Up!



Hiring, firing, perspiring

Photography by Stephen Langdon

I went to a sick show on Saturday night in Blackburn, The River Card, Bays, Times Together, xCurraheex and Heartless played. All from pretty much the same area...Manchester, Blackburn and Stoke. I'm still buzzing from it, I haven't been to a show like that since Summer, when I went to see Shook Ones in LDN. I can honestly say the night, the bands, the crowd and the atmosphere as a whole has thoroughly inspired me. Hardcore (punk) is such an amazing thing to be part of, apart from when you get the little emos or fresh boys who don't know anything about it. They just turn up to a show and throw themselves into people, X up and cause annoyance. Back to the actual point though, Saturday night made me want to do something about all the bad shit that's happened in the past 3 years. It's all playing on my mind and I've just let it swallow me up. Sticking with the poster theme, I'm going to let Barbara Kruger's influence give me a nudge in the right direction.

David Shrigley

Every book store I go into these days seems to stock little books and zines by David Shrigley. He's great. He's a situationist artist, he kind of reminds me of the Yes Men.. not directly, but they're pretty much on the same page. Shrigley intervenes with every day objects; stuff we take for granted i.e street signs.
