For Art's Sake:
Heather Crowther Needs Your Help
HEATHER E. CROWTHER is an artist selected to exhibit in the sixth Florence Biennale, taking place in December. Although she was schooled in fine art, Heather has embraced contemporary techniques and themes in her work -- along with a deep interest in the relationship between nature and science, as expressed in her use of Sacred Geometry.
She is currently looking for sponsorship to enable her to exhibit in Florence. If you can help in any way, please contact her to find out more. In the following artist's statement, she talks about the themes and principles underpinning her work.

The Night of The Vaguely Dead
@ Coronet, London
28 October 2006
Review by Nunuki, photos by Genie
You better believe the surreal hype surrounding Lost Vagueness events because it is well deserved and truly earned.
After arriving at The Coronet, the historic art deco cinema and the ideal setting for The Night of The Vaguely Dead we were greeted by Paka the Incredible mechanical-cyber Trojan-style horse and the very friendly door staff.

Lost Spice
@ Hackney Empire
15 July 2006
Review by Dr Rocket, photos by Genie
Ever been to Lost Vagueness parties??
Well, here is a whiff of what you’ve been missing till now! We’re at the Hackney Empire and the street surrounding the building is full of mischievous individuals dressed like can-can dancers and cheap gangsters and we start wondering if the local shop owners thought their dinner got spiked!

“Dollies & Divas”
Special Private Party
Georgie Tier and Nancy Farmer
La Viande Gallery, 17 May 2006

Georgie Tier
I first saw Georgie’s work at Lost Vagueness festival last summer and was very impressed indeed. A friend of mine has recently described Georgie’s very unique style as “Beryl Cook meets Picasso” and this is, strangely, rather fitting.

Lost Vagueness
The Lost Elephant Ball
The Coronet
Saturday 6 May, 2006
review by Mistress Eli, photos Bill Vincent
Now where is that elephant? Perhaps I will find it at the Ball. But, no, I hunted far and wide and never saw even the tiniest glimpse of the elephant. But I did see a wealth of absurdly but appropriately dressed party animals having an absolutely fabulous time.

“Vulvic portrait artist” Charles Sayer
Reported by Mistress Eli
Photos Charles Sayer
I first met Charles Sayer through his ex-wife and my good friend, Charlotte. Charlotte had told me that Charles would like to paint me and arranged an introduction. I had already heard a little about Charles and wondered if I would be liberated enough to pose for him. Fortunately, after meeting and chatting to him I decided that this wouldn’t be a problem and I am now the very lucky owner of a beautiful painting which proudly adorns my wall.

Going Nowhere
or how to make something out of nothing!
reported by Bubble Jam
photos Nowhere and Euroburners
Hands up anyone who heard of Nowhere Event taking place in Spain between 6–9 July 2006?
In the flood of music or any other festivals happening around this sunny and hospitable country one may be excused for not taking any notice. Not any more as Nowhere is inspired by US Burning Man festival (a free for all experiment with art, film and human misbehaviour in Nevada Desert). If you are still in darkness, pity you.
Only in its third year of existence this event is taking shape as an experience free of preconceptions or pre-planning which becomes whatever its participants want it to be.
It is an ideal environment to make and experience art in any form whatever one chooses to be.

Grzegorz Lewacki
“The vibrant pioneering modern Poet of Poland”
words by Le Mufti
A journey through the visual senses unfurls before your eyes as you contemplate Grzegorz Lewacki and his Tolkien inspired imagery for the first time. By the sixth viewing, you are still making inroads into this ethereal, yet virgin territory, or is it “middle earth”? You are still, a pioneer in discovery mode. Now that’s weird isn’t it? Shouldn’t you by this stage be well versed in the visual landscape of this painter’s mind? Yet something still drags you back there for the sheer pleasure, as well as an answer that remains elusive, well doesn’t it??

Magical Adventures... IN SPACE
Magical Adventures... IN SPACE is the new spin-off from a great web comic called Wigu.
Magical Adventures... is a spoof of Japanese cartoons like Pokemon. It occupied the role of the cartoon within the cartoon - in the same way Itchy & Scratchy relates to The Simpsons.
Artist and writer Jeffrey Rowlands has wound down Wigu and is now give full vent to the strange world of Butter Dimension Quad.
