The LTRHDS (letterheads) exhibition explores the flexibility of the English alphabet in contemporary art by bringing together 26 esteemed artists from different parts of the world and from difference artistic disciplines; graphic, comic, fine, illustration, tattoo, graffiti, asking them to interpret a single letter each to make up an exhibition of the English alphabet.
I don’t know how many of you remember the first letterheads show way back in 06, in a space we opened called Wooden Shadow, my memory of the whole event is hazy, epic party, awesome show, one of the first international gigs by Flying Lotus. 4 years on the 2010 show promises to match the awesomeness in every way.

Bozo Skeleton
“This “BOZO SKELETON (aka Stupid Skeleton)” is obviously what a person looks like after death. But BOZO SKELETON handsomely wears a tight suit and a fancy hat, holds a flower, key, gun, pen…and looks in some sense adorable and also cool. It almost seems like he’s trying to do what he wanted to do before he died, and he’s enjoying himself while he whistles in the dark.
You never know when you are going to die in the world today, and you can feel the effort of a human trying to live the life to the fullest through this dead BOZO SKELETON.
This is a story of a departed soul trying to bring back the passion of a normal human being, the passion that living human beings hold.”
A Morning
Our Brazilian brothers, Horoiwa and Yust are fast tracking their way to notoriety in the art world.
The Sao Paulo duo are currently in Rotterdam working on some truly massive murals. Images of Horoiwa’s wall attached.
Still working on bringing these guys to Australia in 2010, until then keep checking thier blogs.
