Top 5 art events!

Posted on May 17, 2013

 With the next few days set to be monochromatic, I've chosen the top 5 arty/fun events to inject colour into the next 7 days. Wouldn't hurt to wear a rainbow raincoat, either.


1. The Little Art Shop
Our little subterreanean gallery has given itself over to our pop-up Art shop, crammed with original art works from ï¿¡25- ï¿¡2,500. Bring your bags for life.
Curious Duke Gallery

London, EC1Y 8QP
Open Monday- Friday 11:30 – 6:30, Saturday 12-4

2. London Gallery Day
With over 20 galleries in London creating a consortium of exhibitions and events from morning to night, you won't need to make plans. Print a map, and collect your friends on the way.
Various venues across EC1 & WCI
London
Saturday 18th May
Free

3. Eurodisco!
I am not a cultural snob, in fact I love eurovision, and I think you should, too. From the snippets i've seen so far, smoke machines and men dressed as vikings is the latest trend. Failing to persuade you, Bethnal Green Working Men's Club will be throwing the holiest of european parties, with fancy dress and dance routines, and Bucksfizz to the first 100 guests.
Bethnal Green Working Men's Club
42-46 Pollard Row
London, E2 6NB
Saturday 18th May 19:00- 2:00
Tickets here .

4. Gavin Turk: The Years
This controversial artist (the Royal College of Art refused to present the sculptor with his postgraduate certficate), emphasises icons of art history in his practice, with new works inspired by Lucio Fontana and Michelangelo Pistoletto.
