Well I was supposed to go straight to the Ikon Eastside gallery, but didnt realise that it was a totally different gallery to the Ikon... whas the point.... any way... whilst I was at the Ikon gallery I thought i'd have a browse and see if there were any interesting exhibitions on.
I discovered a very interesting exhibition by Semyon Faibisovich. He is a Russian artist and this is his 1st UK exhibition. The Story of the paintings are that they are oil paintings created from pictures taken on the mobile phone. He depicts scenes of everyday life in Razgulyai in Moscow. These paintings focus on 'Marginalised, unglamorous individuals'. Homeless and alcoholics.
This is a must see as you really see the true beauty in the paintings when yo study them from a far..... Up close you can see every brush stroke and blend . AMAZING!!--
