Lady Pink, Nick Walker painting live Friday 20 , by freddiewack on Jul 18, 2007 15:40:31 GMT 1, LIVE STREET ART AUCTION
FRIDAY 6TH / 13TH / 20TH / 27TH JULY 2007
CARGO
6pm-9pm, FREE ENTRY
ALL PROCEEDS TO CHARITY
Evolving Styles is a live street art auction, inviting the finest street artists from around the world to paint live and auction their art off, all in the name of charity. In association with street wear label Boxfresh, Cargoโs outside space is turned into a live art studio / sealed auction house, but unlike Christieโs or Sothebyโs, this auction house has a BBQ, the best DJs playing out and world-famous artists creating original works to auction off on the same night.
The huge success of the first two auctions has already set the tone for this summerโs most original night out. However this Fridayโs event is the one that graff-heads, artists and art collectors have really been waiting for. Making an exclusive UK appearance will be the legendary Lady Pink - the most famous female graffiti artist in the world. Lady Pink (who you may remember from her starring role in the seminal Hip-Hop movie, Wild Style) will be creating six original canvases live on Friday night, which will then be auctioned off for charity. As if this wasnโt enough, we also have the notorious Nick Walker painting live, who along with Banksy is one of the originators of the infamous Bristol stencil scene. This is a rare opportunity for anyone to invest in a piece of street art history, and highly valuable artworks, with all proceeds going to charity.
Naturally an event of this magnitude requires music to match, so in the interests of getting the party truly rocking, we have enlisted the help of the mighty Punks Jump Up to provide the eveningโs soundtrack.
Evolving Styles will run throughout July and sees acclaimed artists such as the legendary Lady Pink (New York), Mr Kern (Barcelona), Herakut (art duo, Germany) and Nick Walker (Bristol), paint on 6 canvases each live in Cargoโs outside space, while a BBQ sizzles, DJs turn the tunes and people relax in the sunshine. At 8p.m. a sealed auction begins where anyone can bid as little or as much as they want for their preferred canvas. At 9p.m., the winning bidders will get to take home their exclusive one-off pieces of art with them that night.
