Went to catch Brendan Fowler @ Rental Gallery in Chinatown yesterday. The exhibition was pretty dope as fuck, free alcohol!!! The type I didn’t have to tip for and the kind that the lady who worked there came over to fill our glasses up! That’s fucking service. I’d pretty much go to every exhibition at the gallery if the bar is as free and giving as they were. Anyway back to Brendans’ stuff, I liked the idea of it or at least what I interpreted it to be.
Titled “Cancelled” it basically explored the idea of not being able to complete a collection of work for an exhibition. Not sure if that makes sense but he basically created a space were framed portraits and prints were literally thrown together to create an individual piece. I don’t really know too much about art so I’ll let the pictures do the talking. Besides I was too busy getting drunk and smoking to remember why I was there in the first place.
Brendan was at the opening playing a five hour drumming performance in the mold of the exhibition. Seriously my man literally drumming for like, ever. He was dope to have a chat with, so check his stuff out. The GIN & TONIC made me mad drowsy, I had to eat like 10 dumplings just to find my square root. ‘Cancelled’ will be running through to December 6th.

I got this message from my Parisian mange tout Laure saying: ‘Check this out because my daddy said so’.
‘Cause I’m easy like that, it was all the convincing I needed to head out to the Jean-Michel Basquiat photographic exhibition at the Front Room of the St. Martin’s Hotel in London. Well it took me 2 weeks, but I did make it there eventually.
More like a conservatory than a front room, the exhibition showcases photographs by Nicholas Taylor taken of Basquiat in the early 80s, during his time in the industrial band GRAY. Large prints and some personal insights from bandmates and friends who knew him in that period are spread over the walls, extending onto the ceiling, creating a backdrop for framed pictures on display.
The pictures are of the time – young, fun, cool and stylish- capturing the band members and the scene. Basquiat is seen sporting some crazy hairstyles long before his trademark ‘funky dreads’. In one picture he has a Mohawk and in another what seems like a squirrel taped on the back of his head (no kidding). Not surprised his dad is selective about the pictures that get put out to the public – or so I gathered from the curator of the show.
Amongst Gray’s band members was Vincent Gallo the actor, artist and ‘The Brown Bunny’ movie director of getting sucked off by Chloe Sevigny fame.
Don’t know much about the music produced but this was before fame found Basquiat in the art world. However quite a few songs from their album made it onto the soundtrack for ‘Downtown 81’, the real-life documentary which captures the ‘ultra-hip subculture of post-punk era Manhattan’ starring Basquiat.
The show should be running till early November and relocates to Dover Street Market. Don’t ask where just get down to Dover Street market and you are bound to find out.
Well there missy, we gotta start listening to daddy more often.

You probably read that the Beastie Boys have cancelled a load of shows this Autumn and put their album (Hot Sauce Committee Part 1) back. The basics are that Yauch has a a cancerous growth in a saliva gland and needs surgery. Thankfully it’s localised and treatable, and his voice will not be affected, so a quick recovery wished from The Gurn Team!
Back to the point though, Jay Z was a last minute sub for the Beastie’s headline slot at All Points West festival in NJ at the beginning of August, and this Gurner only just stumbled upon this AWESOME tribute from Hova… Here is Jay-Z covering No Sleep Til Brooklyn in possibly the heaviest way possible. Goosebumps.
Here by the way are Adams Yauch and Horovich detailing the delay….
