STUCK ON ME EXHIBIT@NHAC

Image hosted by Photobucket.com

I got my buttonz ready! Will be an amazing show!

Here the offical throwdown:

Creatives from the art, design and fashion worlds
will be reinventing the pin badge for an exhibition
at London’s Notting Hill Arts Club in October.

Put to use as pop memorabilia,politicalstatement
and fashion accessory, the pin badge has come
a long way over the last century. Styles,shapes
and graphics have evolved in pace with new
technologies and trends. Over the last year pin
badges have again come into their own as personal
statements and as a part of their owners’ identity.

Stuck On Me is an exhibition organized by Joana
Niemeyer (Thomas Manss) and Nadine Fleischer
(The Guardian/Observer) that explores the different
meanings of badges and takes them to the next
level. Artists and designers will give a unique
interpretation of the medium with their ownbadges,
while a special essay by Gavin Lucasof Creative
Review will provide the historical framework.

The list of participants includes Browns, Spin,
Experimental Jetset, Park Studio, Peepshow,
Dan Holiday, Scrollan, Daniel Eatock, Paulus
Dreibholz, Zoo York and Solaris100 Industries.
All the badges in the exhibition are for sale and can be bought by
request or on the opening night.

Catch the work from 10 October until 10 December
at the Notting Hill Arts Club, London.
