More about Beecholme


Beecholme is also the first postwar "mixed development" housing scheme in Hackney, with a mixture of houses and flats with the taller block having five storeys and containing one-bedroom and bedsit accommodation. It is featured in Volume 15 of Hackney History and was the site of Beecholme House, the family home of Maj. John André (d. 1780), who was executed as a British spy in the American War of Independence.

Vulpes Vulpes exhibition "Views from Afar" 17th Oct - 8th Nov


Vulpes Vulpes exhibition
"Views from Afar"


with the launch of Simon Liddiment s Kaavous-Bhoyroo Quarterly Edition


Exhibition open:
17 October 8 November, Saturdays and Sundays, 11am 6pm
Exhibition party Saturday 17 October 6pm 9pm

Views from Afar, is a testing ground for a speculative hypothesis rather than a statement of fact and presentation of proof. Is there a discernible character to the work of those artists operating outside the main metropolitan centres of contemporary art production? Can a defining approach be discovered amongst groups of artists who work out of the same location, whether they are exploring similar themes or not?

Works on show include; Coco Crampton s upholstered hybrid art and craft object based on Marcel Breuer s Lattenstuhl; Nils el Grube s chain-sawn wooden figures and sliced man on an operating table; Robin Webb s self-mocking cartoonesque paintings; RJ Hinrichsen s film of an unfeasibly slow and deliberate walk along a dark street; Robert Filby s A0 photocopies that spatially reconfigure a single source photograph of a modern flint wall and Simon Davenport s painted and engraved plaster ingots and cardboard tube (Simon Davenport is also choreographing an event for the exhibition party).
...

Alongside the exhibition, Vulpes Vulpes will also host the launch of Simon Liddiment s Kaavous-Bhoyroo Quarterly Edition. Kaavous-Bhoyroo is an arts agency that curates events and commissions artists to produce limited editions.
