This is our best explanation for what Herrods* is...
A place of pilgrimage during the seasonal festive binge for the discerning aerosol afficionado.
Specialising in inappropriate last minute artistic gifts, primarily for yourself, but maybe someone else.
* not to be confused with any mini mart in Knightsbridge with a similar name (this a serious contemptorary art gallery questioning mass consumption, please buy our stuff)

The artist list is 99% finalised, images of work that will be hung, placed, draped, balanced or hidden in Herrods 2013 are arriving daily, and between you lot, me and the APHQ gatepost it's all looking pretty damn funky.
The brewery have been in touch and they're dispatching a special limited edition batch of beer for the Herrods VIP VPL list, hopefully it'll arrive in time and won't all be drunk before it gets in their grubby hands.
And here's the latest from the Herrods legal team, our very own totally legal and watertight 'Public Stealth Warning'...

Agent Provocateur π¬π§ Street Art β’ Herrods β’ Stencil Art, by Agent Provocateur on Dec 6, 2013 14:22:13 GMT 1, Alrighty, less than a week before the opening, pieces are starting to arrive with the majority landing at APHQ at the start of next week. I'll try and post another preview of work before Wednesday... but if you've had your eyes peeled on the instafacetwit thing some of the artists have already posted work.
Had a quick chat with the brewery this morning and there's already a VERY small box of delectable limited edition Herrods beer hurtling up from the Pyrenees. It looks like these are going to be rarer than something rare on national rare day! Unfortunately it's touch and go for their arrival by the end of next week, but knowing the Post Office they'll be pulling out all the stops.
The flyers have just arrived, with craftily placed styrofoam pieces on the location... just so I can milk this pre-opening pr to within an inch of it's life. Apologies if you've already hit the ignore button, but dammit I'm having fun, and who's knows it might all be worth it!

Agent Provocateur π¬π§ Street Art β’ Herrods β’ Stencil Art, by Agent Provocateur on Dec 9, 2013 12:50:15 GMT 1, The Herrods team were in the gallery at the weekend testing the innovative display system. As you can probably tell we're quite excited about teaming up with one of the preeminent exhibition spaces in London, their attention to detail when dressing the gallery is second to everyone. No expense has been made at all, as you can probably tell if you noticed the state-of-the-art sound system.

We're also relieved happy to inform you artists have started to drop of their work off so the hanging committee will finally be earning their money later in the week.

For Β£2 a pop this non-electronic wonder of the 80's will dispense a plastic sphere containing your very own work of art. I think they even have a COA inside (but don't quote me) for everyone worried about authenticity when putting it up for auction at Christies in a couple of years.
Wait there's more, with TWO different dispensers, one is suitable for children and the other NOT at all suitable for children. This must be the ultimate art based stocking filler to suite even the most financially challenged art collector.
Installation in progress...

Show was a cracker last year really sorry I am missing it this you . As explained mainly due to the fact that you only served copious amounts of beer last year rather than a small glass of sherry as requested.
the Carrie vending machine reminded me of the couple of bits I picked up at last years show one by Carrie and one by yourself as well as one of Jim's. Grenades.

Unfortunately we had bad news at Herrods this afternoon after the excitement of the 'Art Vending Machine' installation. This is how the highly anticipated bottles of Herrods beer were delivered by Royal Mail today, the musical sound of tinkling glass only slightly alleviated the depression that hit knowing there wouldn't be any to hand out at the opening.
Surprised, no, disappointed yes. Will I live yes, but dammit I was really looking forward to tasting some of Herrods own label beer!
