again I heared something about an Adam Neate solo show in Octobre..

can anyone confirm this? more info?

cheers...

[manchestermike]

I'm sure Elms will be announcing the rest of their 09 line up soon ;D

[beasty]

Mike - do you know if Adam has any shows outside of Elms in the pipeline ,e.g. overseas?

[funster]

I've heard the same thing and think it would be ashame if it happened. If Adam doesn't start doing some really good quality shows abroad then I fear for his longevity in the wider art market.

I would love to see some more of this guys work!!! I recently got my hands on one of those 1,000 ed street pieces.......I know they are a simple design but when you look at it you can see the 'quality' the guy has got...I love it and my wife also 'gets it' too....!Double whammy!

you absolutely have a point there.. would be good to see a show in the US (which means most of us wont see it) for his career..

but where could he do a show in europe besides london? He is so attached to London, his career is partially based On london at this moment..

[beasty]

Funster - spot on. As much as I like Elms and the great job they have done with Adam I think he really needs to get some international exposure. There is only so much you can get from photos so to make an impact on the wider international stage he needs to be exhibiting locally, esp in the States.

I think he's the only artist on the Elms roster that only exhibits in that gallery. Maybe they're just waiting for the right international gallery to pop up. Anyone know any more?

[graeme501]

its odd how adam neate gets so little compared to parla who jets about abit considering they are both elms artists

[Simococo]

if adam wants to do an international show he will do one

[curiousgeorge]

While not a 'show' remember he has hit Brazil a bit in the past. So i don't think he totally all about London

He does live there though... the boy gotta paint ;D

[rrrich]

last time i was in elms, they did confirm an october show by adam. guess theyll confirm a little closer to the time.

[beasty]

I was told October also but was hoping that an international show would pop up before that.

[Deleted]

any more news about the octobre show? or any other news about mr. Neate? things are so quiet around him.. spooky..

[dynamixx]

I'm already excited.

[aspyhole]

YEP:

apparently he may be in this one (TBC apparently): www.wallspace.org.uk/exhibitions/current/index.html

David Shillinglaw is also in it - www.davidshillinglaw.co.uk/
David is a very VERY good artist. Had some great shows, and this current one looks fantastic from the mural he has done outside on the London wall: www.davidshillinglaw.co.uk/visionaries.htm
Get his stuff here: davidshillinglaw.bigcartel.com/
I think I may make a thread about him he is so good!

and another saying 2am Blog £500, kept flat in an acid free environment.

think they were quotes from a certain night...lets see what the book is like..it might contain some un answered questions like... did all the neates actually get dropped and picked up or was there less than we thought?

[bullet]

i would also like to nominate the quotes

'bump' and 'in the flesh'

[manty]

I thought Adam had retired?

[Winter]

He's in semi-retirement. His website is in full retirement.

I was contacted and asked if I minded my quotes being used. I said it was fine.
I think all my quotes included words such as "Cold, tired, didn't find any"

i think what you guys are forgetting is that adam doesn't care about that. from what ive seen hes not someone that cares about the hype or the fame like other artists and all he wants to do is produce work that he enjoys and hopes the public does the same.

[dynamixx]

Adam's the least commercial high profile artist in this scene. He could have easily released a print every few months and cashed in, but he hasn't. Another reason why he's great

Don't know how long this has been on Elms' site but it sais the following:

"ADAM NEATE: A NEW UNDERSTANDING
9 October - 21 November 2009
Tuesday - Saturday 12 - 6pm, Thursdays 'til 8pm

Adam Neate's eagerly anticipated second solo show, following from his landmark exhibition, PAINTINGS, POTS and PRINTS in 2007 will be held between 9th October - 21st November 2009.


Best known for his use of cardboard and aerosol paint, this new series of paintings have taken on a 3D sculptural quality by further incorporating perspex, metal, collage and other sourced objects, demonstrating his innate understanding of composition, perspective and movement whilst still retaining his impeccable line. "

It better be good.. since his site is down I miss my shot of Neate daily..

[Simococo]

this will be class
