Review of art show Inside Ou<\/em>t by Brian Coen<\/a><\/p>\n

THURSDAY JULY 14th saw the grand opening of “Inside out”, a two-artist show at the hip St Leonards oddities shop, Amongst Other Things. The private view was, to quote one of the artists, “a real night of the night”. Art-and-booze-hungry folk swarmed to the show and were greeted by the beautiful and strange creations of street paste-up, digital and screen-print wizard Tobyuk44, mixed with work by multi-media illustrator and sculptor Thaddeus Skews .<\/p>\n

Mr. Warren, shop clerk at Amongst Other Things, had the idea for transforming the shop temporarily into a cutting-edge gallery at the same time as being exposed to the flickering lights of the two contemporary local Artists’ work. The Art cake ingredients were thrown in a bowl and, in the words of Bob Marley, he did “stir it up”.<\/p>\n

The private view not only boasted art and drinks, but also the local oddball art band “Unicorn Dad versus Robo Dad” playing a stripped-down intimate set of their broody friendly tunes. Highlights of the exhibition include: a paste-up of Eastern European flats stretching across the whole shop front, a five-foot wooden skeleton based on a Fisher-Price phone caricature, the boy on the top of the wardrobe with de-tuned T.V. eyes, encyclopedias sculpted into collage theatres, a dazzling array of limited edition screen prints [below], cards and some jelly beans \u2013 a wonderful month-long event and another reason to love this town.<\/p>\n

Inside Out<\/strong> Until 14 August 2011, Fridays and Saturdays, 11am to 4pm at Amongst Other Things, 32, Western Road, St Leonards, TN37 6DJ. Tel: 719676.
