Talented creators Guerilla Zoo bring London Modern Panic – Returning for it’s fifth year – A unique collection of over 40 surreal, controversial & provocative international
modern artists and live arts practitioners
Guerrilla Zoo’s acclaimed Modern Panic exhibition curated by James Elphick returns for it’s fifth incarnation. The show features a unique collection of surreal, controversial & provocative international artists and live art’s practitioners, exploring the furthest depths of the psyche and human archtypes. This year’s exhibition offers a rare opportunity to witness the work of the surrealistSwiss painter, sculptor and set designer best known for his creations for the film Alien — the legendary H.R. Giger — and features exclusive sculptures co-created with his assistant Jules Bloom, completed before his sad passing earlier this year.
The exhibition will also
showcase work from UK-based illustrator Iain Macarthur, famed for his
ability to embellish his portraits with decadent and flirtatiously
geometric patterns. The twisted and warped universe of Scabbage with
his disturbing Pests of London series, felt-based provacations from Lucy
Sparrow whose recent felt Cornershop exhibition landed on art headlines
worldwide, andthe sequined skull of Sequin Kay which took 295 hours to
complete, a labour that involved individually applying 24,500 sequins
and 1,010 Swarovski crystals.
Alongside are the insurgent
rising stars of Belgian artist Simon Lejeune with his intricate
futuristic machina, French artists Jean Francois Bouron and Olivier
Dzoand their inked distopian reflections of society, the vivid religious
iconography and prison-tattooed figurine pairings distilled from
Russian artist Karina Akopyan’s unusual visions and Berlin based Anne
‘Blondie’ Bengard who’s colourful japanese influenced works pose
undertones of humor and eroticism.
These and many more are part of the fifth year of Modern Panic,
with further artists to be announced soon! These and many more are part
