Needle & Scalpel - 27 June to 3 July

An Exhibition of sculpture and etchings by Edward Addlington and Iavor Lubomirov.

Opens 6pm (Saturday 27 June) with a Champagne Reception.

Thereafter open daily: 4 - 8pm 28 June to 3 July
Address: 295 Burntwood Lane, SW17 0AP

Supported by: AFMMXII & The Magnificent Basement Co. Ltd.

Needle and Scalpel will be the first exhibition resulting from a series of planned collaborations between 'Artists for 2012' and London property developers willing to open their buildings between completion and sale as alternative temporary exhibition spaces.  

The object of these collaborations is:  

1. to provide artists with opportunities outside the gallery system
2. to take emerging art outside saturated artistic hubs in South and East London and into the wider London community

The space for Needle and Scalpel is provided by 'The Magnificent Basement Company Ltd' in a development near Wandsworth Common.  A second show led by Sharon Gal, featuring live performance art, audience participation art and music will take place the following Saturday 4 July from 2-7pm.  Details to follow.
