JAMES MYLNE SOLO EXHIBITION AT WESTBANK GALLERY

Grandly Grimey, James Mylne’s biggest solo exhibition to date taking place at Notting Hill’s Westbank Gallery will consist of entirely new and unseen works inspired by traditional ideals of beauty and the rococo paintings of the 18th Century.

Swathed in splashes of colour, James's photo-realistic ballpoint pen drawings of classical subjects are subtly and humorously subverted with contemporary details, mixing grand glamour with grimy modernity.

On this occasion, the gallery will be transformed into a Grandly Grimey Georgian-inspired den of iniquity furnished with unique Mylne-designed chairs and bespoke wallpaper.

A new series of hand-finished limited edition prints will be launched to coincide with the show.
Please take a look at the teaser video here.

From the 26th September Art Below will be featuring Mylne's work as a billboard poster at Regent's Park tube statiuon for 4 weeks.
 
James Myne says: ‘The artworks I’ll be showing work to recontextualize classical ideas of power that were once portrayed through artistic movements such as Rococo into today’s urban counterculture.
I’m working to subtly subvert these old elitist styles of beauty, not to dis respect or dishonour them, but to bring them into the contemporary landscape where anti establishment feelings are the new à la mode.’
