Any pictures out there of new pieces we're likely to see?

Antony Micallef - Lazarides - 25th Sept, by klyde on Sept 9, 2009 9:32:32 GMT 1, I'm in London for a few days in the week prior but head back home on the 25th.
Whats the chance of a mere mortal getting into the show preview and how would one go about sorting this out?
Thanks.

Antony Micallef - Lazarides - 25th Sept, by nex on Sept 9, 2009 10:16:51 GMT 1, Micallef is a top top talent for me, it's funny but I learnt about him via Banksy and Laz and yet I wouldn't class him as urban or street - just a fucking amazing talent who in many ways like Adam Neate (actually possibly more so for my taste) will be here long long after this scene is just another page in a book
His work reminds me of totally fucked up bacon pieces brought up to the here and now - that's the biggest compliment i can give him

Antony Micallef - Lazarides - 25th Sept, by nex on Sept 9, 2009 10:21:27 GMT 1, on a side note and perhaps this is indicative of my taste evolving away from street but having seen pic's of this new show and comparing it to that I've just looked at on another thread regarding a show across the water - I'm shocked at the miniscule amount of emotion, admiration or skill for that I see there in comparison to this
fuck i'm getting old

Antony Micallef - Lazarides - 25th Sept, by motor on Sept 9, 2009 12:36:55 GMT 1, I'm absolutely thrilled about this one. I just hope that this time no prints will spoil the show. As the way I see it his 'career' has been judged here more by his prints (their flippability precisely) and not by his body of artwork.

I agree his 'career' is based on the print prices post boom which is no way to judge an artists talent, hope he does really well with this show.

tbh 'the day of massive print releases' at Laz and PoW did his rep no favours, but the quality of his work can't be denied and it shouldn't be blackened by these errors of judgement

Antony Micallef - Lazarides - 25th Sept, by jimbob68 on Sept 9, 2009 19:52:15 GMT 1, this is a show that i must see. In my opinion he is one of the major young talents of the english art world today along with painters like jenny saville , hughie o'donoghue and guy deniing ( by coincidence it was denning that intoduced me to micallef several years ago ) it has been along time waiting for this show so i think it will be as someone else said 'the show of the year' good luck anthony
aplogies to any banksy bristol show fans!!!!

Antony Micallef - Lazarides - 25th Sept, by meatbag on Sept 11, 2009 2:36:41 GMT 1, I really still like Mic's stuff. My Uzi prints that were not that popular are still some of my favs... in addition to the 21stCL. Just also notice a huge improvement to his site. Really loving The Cherry Pickers and Red Siren pieces. All he needs to do now is get a legit gallery behind him.

Isn't he represented by Lazarides? Are they not considered a legit gallery?

Without hurtings anyones' feelings... NO they are not. Certainly not in the US where he comes off more like a ringleader to a circus. Of course this is only one jerks opinion.

I see, didn't know that they're viewed so negatively actually. Thought they've always been credited for raising Banksy's profile have a great roster of artists etc. etc.

I would add Ian Francis to that list...and I believe Laz are trying to get him to do another show with them at the moment...

Well some galleries are not as prominent/renowned in different parts of the world so I suppose it's very understandable that certain galleries aren't viewed in such a positive light? I'd imagine the flip side is true ie. American galleries being badly thought of in the UK/Europe? It's just surprising and interestnig to me that Lazarides having represented (correct me if I'm wrong here) an artist as internationally famous as Banksy would be seen like that. Vhils, JR, Conor Harrington and of course Micallef etc. are just some of thoe most amazing artists I've seen (in my truly most humble and naive opinion)
Not to start anything and certainly not to consider anyone being a jerk so back to the topic, Micallef is truly amazing and if I had the money, I would jump on one of his originals from this show in less than a heartbeat!!

you have to remember Steve built his gallery from 'outside' the system, he wasn't part of it or the hierarchy and as such will always be viewed with contempt by those who try to see/keep things in a certain way
(meatbag called himself a jerk, i just agreed )
