Rock n Roll art lovers are being treated to a Sex Pistols inspired art exhibition next month when the Great Rock n Roll Swindle, a touring group organised by punk artist David Apps come to town.
‘The Great Rock n Roll Swindon is made up of artists from the original punk movement including two Swindonians.
Michelle Mildenhall – Originally from Swindon – Latex artist, who is becoming very well known. Work contains themes of bondage, face gags and iconic faces on sale as limited edition runs only.
Also with roots to Swindon, Saffron Reichenbacker – Hammer Horror, slightly Gothic fun but angelic designs.
Joining them will be:
Charlie Harper – Legendary singer of punk band the U.K Subs.
DnA Factory – Two Brixton based artists Dalis & Angel who produce very provocative and slightly wrong bright pink works.
Gaye Black – AKA Gaye Advert, bass player with the Adverts and a British punk icon.
David Freud – Renowned artist in his own right and son of the artist Lucian Freud.
Mr Ben Art – Creating music related and punk icon images made from old magazines, papers & paint under a thick resin.
Linda King – Large decorative flat wooden Crows, beautiful designs to hang in windows to stop birds flinging into them.
‘The Great Rock n Roll Swindle’ will be on display from the 2nd – 10th October at The Post Modern Gallery, Theatre Square in Swindon.
