A trip to Gent

April 3rd, 2010

This month….
GO TO GENT!

1. Eat an egg-cheese hamburger at MARTINO’s with fritjes and HOME-MADE really DELICIOUS mayonnaise.
This place use to look like a US 1950’s diner, and served the famous Martino raw meat sandwich…. for some reason the owners decided to do major transformation works and it looks…. less cool…. but food is still really great!
2. Or veggie option: cheese omelette with fresh cream and fritjes….. the owner explains that they pour cream onto the omelette to counter the bitterness of the cheese…. try this at home it’s Ricco!
3. Go to the S.M.A.K. and see the impressive mural painting by Koen van den Broek
4. Then check out Ed Templeton’s Cemetery of Reason.
An intimate and transgressive exhibition with a skate feeling: travel photos, paintings, diaries, thoughts….
And have a spy on the Templetons’ readings….

= A SUPER DAY!

Last Night

March 29th, 2010

Lydia Fong (Barry McGee) and HuskMitNavn cross their work for a colorful and enthusiastic graffiti influenced show entitled “Last Night” at Alice Gallery, Brussels.

Anaïck poses in front of a Husk paper character…

Bellow Lydia Fong installation.

Blown away by Barry Lydia’s quilt like wall of patterns painted on wooden boards, I decide to crack the code and try to work out the, what appears to be easy, technic… not without difficulty! In fact 12 hours later, the only clues I have are masking tape, some sort of repellent to protect the sides and foam brushes.
After a few sketches, I still can’t figure out the order or the amount of tape layers needed to achieve a simple version… let alone a more complicated one! 🙂

… and the first attempt has… failed! I feel tempted to cheat and do it in silkscreening….

At the end of the evening, the sweet US vegan crew turned up and we were privileged to get a few pages of our “Beautiful Losers” signed by Twist, Ed Templeton and Amaze.

To finnish the WE off nicely Supe and Petro turned up for dinner which was a laugh!

I couldn’t come to terms with the bunny/chick/badly drawn butterfly lark so i got onto the sewing machine + heat press and finally my Malevich inspired nursery carpet is finished! Seems simple but took ages to make…. Ouf!
