As a seasoned art enthusiast with a penchant for the unconventional and the gritty, I can’t help but be enthralled by the ‘Public Life‘ exhibition at Toxic Arts Gallery. Having traversed the globe’s art scenes from the hallowed halls of the Louvre to the neon-lit alleys of Tokyo’s underground, this dance between the personal and the public resonates deeply with my own experiences.
‘Life in the Public Eye’ is an intricate dance involving both personal and public aspects. Showcased by Toxic Arts Gallery in London’s vibrant East End, this collective exhibition features the contributions of a dozen global artists. Their works invite viewers to envision a fresh take on today’s art scene.
Through incorporating spaces with a raw, edgy energy, Toxic Arts aims to eliminate barriers and make every spectator feel more comfortable, as explained by Harry Barrat to Dazed. The exhibition’s title honors its location, Public Life nightclub, which was once a public restroom transformed into a capsule club that gained popularity during the vibrant party scene of the mid-2000s. ‘Public Life’ embraces the charm in its roughness and grit.
In a conventional gallery setting, adorning the crisp, white walls, the artworks of ‘Public Life’ exhibit a mischievous rebelliousness through their materials and arrangements. Samuel Almansa brings forth an enchanting mischief with his porcelain portraits of cherubic characters. Rosie Clements’ rave photography is transformed into UV-print on bubble wrap. The artists of ‘Public Life’, ranging from naughty Teletubbies paintings to AI-inspired metallic forms, seamlessly blend deviance and whimsy in their creative expressions.
The event, running from August 23-25, is open for everyone and located at the old Public Life nightclub close to Spitalfields Market. Admission is free for all!
