I have finally been able to read it - Caspers Geobrutal


Thanks Casper for emailing me the jpg of the invite. Using that handy magnify tool I was finally able to read it! I know its an arty design but I am glad the arty text finally revealed itself to me.


It goes like this
MACINDOE'S NEW WORK HAS THE FINNESS OF A BLIND AXE MURDER COUPLED WITH THE INGENUETY OF A BOILED EGG. BOTH ART AND CRAFT HAVE BEEN EXORCISED IN ACTS AND WORKS WHICH RESONATE SIMULTANIOUSLY WITH THE DARKNESS OF INHUMANITY AND THE VELOCITY OF FORGIVENESS. THANK GOD HE IS AN ARTIST.

Casper - great show at No 35 - get your .......


Andy McKeown's (Shown here with Sue Challis receiving the local winners prize at last years WR open) show at no 35 in Oswestry is really interesting. The work is computer generated monoprints created by a computer programme he has written that manipulates a number of drawings he specifies and duplicates and arranges them ito a design. He then has 30seconds to decide whether to print or trash the image before the computer programme trashes it itself. So hence a computer generated "monoprint". Go take a look - it will make some traditionalists scream but I saw a cool variety of images.

Well done Casper for arranging this show - but tell us what you are upto here - and get your charming assistants to give us the Shrew lowdown too.
