Monday 19th October: "Running Naked" at TJ. Boulting

Icelandic, New York based artist Shoplifter has been in London for Frieze Art Fair week, taking part in a group show at nearby TJ.Boulting.  The "Running Naked" exhibition is a collaboration of 3 artist's individual styles morphing into a brand new body of work.  The trio of friends have come together in joint force for the first time, fusing the multicolour visions of AVAF (Assume Vivid Astro Focus), Cibelle Cavalli Bastos & Shoppy.   For example, AVAF's soft digital print "Vertigo Anxiety" has a Shoppy hair sculpture addition and sits ontop of Cibelle's oil cloth patchwork flooring.   The riot of colour on every surface is an equal equation of a spectrum sum in one complete cosmic outcome.  Obviously a dream for me to visit in this technicolour world and have the chance to see Shoppy brighten up our city with her joyous vibes, thanks to TJ. Boulting.

Thursday 15th October: Millie Brown's "Rainbow Body" at Gazelli Art House

Millie Brown is back in town this week to take part in the Frieze week of events with her UK debut at Gazelli with a site-specific performance installation.  Her rainbow theme continues with this new work using crystals acting as prisms to cast spectrum reflections from her ceiling suspension.  She is in situ for 4 hour stints for 4 days at the gallery on Dover Street to be viewed from either outside on the street or up close.  Her frame hangs in amongst the parallel show inside the space "Let there be light, revisited" which highlights pioneers of the 60's/70's Light & Space movement.   I was lucky enough to be treated to dinner at Bistrotheque on Monday to celebrate both the event and her birthday. Apparently it's standard practise in the art-world to hold a dinner party as a private view ...... I now realise which industry I should have gone into!!!!!!!  Thanks for the taster Millie!
