Something tells me that soft indie-rockers The Hours have spent the last two years doing some hardcore networking.

Japanese sculptor Ujino Munetero’s curious piece of sound art makes compelling viewing at the Hayward until April 24th, so it’s your last chance to get down to South Bank and give it a once- or twice-over.

My initial impression of Zero Cents was ‘Get me away from him.’ I am glad to say though, after he had finished his joint, relaxed a little and I had stopped staring at him like I wanted out, things warmed up. Forget Banksy, Zero Cents is the street art phenomenon of the future. Zero Cents: [...]

Rostone’s solo show at the Centre Fold Gallery in Guernsey is opening tomorrow and it’s going to be amazing! Imagine elaborately-layered, nostalgia-filled spray-painted porn and you’re quarter of the way there. I was at the Gallery two weeks ago and witnessed Rostone’s excitement at the arrival of a massive electronic organ. Apparently he’s painted it [...]
