Art Below’s ‘Thatcherstic’ opens at London’s Gallery Different with a private view on Wednesday 17th April, the day of Thatcher’s funeral. The exhibition features 10 artists depictions of ‘The Iron Lady’ and is open to the public for 10 days tying in with the ‘No.10’ theme.
Artists include kennardphillipps, Harry Pye, Nasser Azam, Sarah Maple, Matt Small, and Carne Griffiths.
Over the next month selected works from the exhibition are due to feature at Westminster tube station including a large pixellated close-up of Margaret Thatcher’s tearful eye whilst leaving Downing Street for the last time by Saatchi New Sensations Winner Jonny Briggs.
“All the artists in the show have one thing in common, we all grew up as Thatcher’s children”
remarks Ben Moore, Director of Art Below. “Some of the artists like kennardphillipps whose
depiction of Thatcher is part of the Tate collection already have work at hand, however some artists are creating work especially for the show like Carne Griffiths and Matt Small..
Thatcher’s recent death has highlighted the divide in people’s thoughts and feelings towards her and I hope this comes over in the exhibition”

| LOLCats at Pimlico Station |
LOLCats are now on display at Pimlico Station for two weeks starting 11th March. This is the first internet based group of artists we have featured. LOLCats are an array of cool cats and witty kitties, including graphic designers, illustrators, photographers, animators and writers to submit to a group exhibition in Januray 2013. Ignoring the crudely makeshift LOLCAT aesthetic, each of these artists has come up with their unique take on the theme to create a piece of beautiful, amusing and exquisitely crafted LOLCAT art.
