Rob Ryan’s Christmas window
Posted by Angie Lewin

Something I'd meant to write about before Christmas is this brilliant window display that Rob Ryan has created for Coutts Bank at 440 Strand - opposite Charing Cross station.

The window has been created to raise fund for Kids Company. There will be an auction of the stuffed elephant, doll's house and rocking horse that form part of the display. But you can also make a £5 donation to Kids Company by texting KIDS HELP to 70700.

At the first fall of snow
Posted by Simon Lewin

We're up on Speyside at the minute and had our first snowfall of the year last night.

Here's a snap of our view of Ben Rinnes, shrouded in cloud.

It seemed appropriate to also post Jonny Hannah and Mark Hearld's collaborative poster for their exhibition with us back in 2007.

El Tren Fantasma
Posted by Simon Lewin

Chris Watson was a founding member of the influential Sheffield-based experimental music group Cabaret Voltaire but you'll now often come across his name within the credits of various natural history programmes on TV and radio.

'El Tren Fantasma', (The Ghost Train), is Chris Watson’s 4th solo album for Touch, and his first since Weather Report in 2003, which was named as one of the albums you should hear before you die in The Guardian.

Andrew Weatherall has reviewed Watson's latest recording over at Caught By The River...

"Trying to describe Watson’s work would be like sharing last night’s dreams and you don’t want to hear about my suppressed feelings of wistful romantic regret, fear of ageing [that's the teeth falling out one], fear of the future or be taken on my erotic flights of fancy. I’ll stick to a sonic description and let you dream your own dreams."

Read the review in full and purchase a copy from the Caught By The River online store.

And you can find out more about Chris Watson's work from his website.

Stony Track
Posted by Angie Lewin

Here's one of the new prints that will be exhibited at my show with Rob Ryan in Cambridge which opens this week.

Stony Track is a screenprint inspired by time spent during my residency at Cortijada Los Gázquez in June.

The wild flowers in the Andalucian mountains were amazing. Beside a track lined with pines I spotted these purple-blue tassel hyacinths growing with phlomis in the stony earth.

The exhibition opens at 6.30pm on Friday 28th October at Cambridge Contemporary Art and runs until 20th November 2011.

Further copies of the edition will be available online from St. Jude's soon after.

Alex Malcolmson
Posted by Simon Lewin

You may have already seen the hanging sign that Alex Malcolmson created for his exhibition with us earlier this year.

Coast magazine have just featured Alex and his work in their November issue.

Alex has created two pieces based on his time in spent sailing round the Scilly Isles to accompany an article by Ceri Levy which will be appearing in our forthcoming Random Spectacular publication.

And in 2013 we'll be hosting an exhibition of Alex's work alongside printmaker & painters Jonathan Gibbs and Jonny Hannah. Sign up to our newsletter for details nearer the time.

Stoer Head Lighthouse
Posted by Angie Lewin

Although a previous blog about the coffee van on Cley beach might suggest otherwise, we don't base all our walks on the available catering but last week Leigh's bright blue van by the Stoer Head Lighthouse was a cheerful and welcoming sight.

The walk around the point isn't a long one but there are great clifftop views. Watching climbers scale the Old Man of Stoer is a bonus and the views from the trig point at the high point of the walk are incredible, whatever the weather. From the van, Leigh serves bacon rolls, venison burgers and pancakes. You can take your mug of tea and gaze out to sea watching the gulls wheel around the the cliffs below.
