Sounds like a good one, im scared already, "Multi sensory"? sounds a bit rum.

[Ruggs]

I'd love to go to this.

[hlarmy]

Exciting; this looks like it could be a cracking show and another reason to head to London that weekend. It's going to be busy! If anyone is heading up that weekend from the South West / South Wales, drop me a PM

[walshy]

Well spotted

Trying.
But to match you is basically impossible so most of the times I just give up.

[doyle]

can't wait for this one, tunnel 228 was spectacular and so glad they are doing another one and an amazing venue to explore the gates of hell.

[Martin DK]

Looks great, looks like a very special place. Also like the line-up for this one.

[Harveyn]

This sounds very cool. Can't wait to see what Connor and Polly do with this. In fact excited about the whole event.

[Warm Gun]

This sounds exciting. Think I might make the trip up from the south coast.

[jusdeep]

Should be a great event and good to see Kevin Spacey doing so much for British theatre.
Connor's contribution is sounding very interesting as well.

JBOY were in Laz yesterday afternoon pretty merry from drinking next door.

We apologise to the lovely ladies.

[Cardiff]

Looking forward to this...great line up! I'll be interested to see what Paul Insect contributes as it's been a while.

[Pedro Matos]

amazing line up! I wish I was in London for this one!

[buffin]

Wonder if the Vhils survives from Tunnel 228. Those that went to that show might be interested to know that a restored and extended version of Fritz Lang's Metropolis is on general release this Friday.

[St. Art Gallery]

Great line-up with some of my favourite artist. I will be visiting London that weekend so I will be visiting the show for sure.

[wizzy]

Can you have a good time for me too please as cannot make it.

LAZARIDES AND THE OLD VIC TUNNELS PRESENT
HELL’S HALF ACRE
12th – 17th OCTOBER 2010

Lazarides Gallery is delighted to announce their upcoming collaboration with The Old Vic Tunnels. Staged within the recently discovered labyrinth beneath London’s Waterloo station, ‘Hell’s Half Acre’ will be a ground-breaking series of installations launching 12th October 2010. Bringing the vision of Steve Lazarides to one of London’s most arresting performance spaces, the maze of tunnels will be converted into a large-scale evocation of Dante’s literary masterpiece, Inferno. Visitors will explore the nine circles of Hell through the contributions of artists including: George Osodi, Antony Micallef, Polly Morgan, Jonathan Yeo, Conor Harrington, Christian Lemmerz, Vhils, Paul Insect, Mark Jenkins, Boogie, David Choe, Doug Foster, Zak Ové, Todd James, Ian Francis and many more...

Artists will provide their own interpretation of hell with freedom to reference both Purgatorio and Paradiso from the trilogy of The Divine Comedy. Through the curatorial direction, interaction with the exhibited works—paintings, sculptures, video pieces, performance and mixed media installation—is encouraged and part of this thrilling multi-sensory experience. Highlights of the exhibition include for the very first time 3-dimensional installations by Conor Harrington and Jonathan Yeo, a new exclusively commissioned film by Todd James/ REAS, the powerfully chilling photographs of George Osodi and Boogie, with a surprise finale by Paul Insect.

Hell’s Half Acre at The Old Vic Tunnels will be open for viewing 12th – 17th October from 6pm – 11pm from Tuesday to Thursday and extended hours on the weekend. Entry to the exhibition will be free, but as space is limited all visitors must book ahead. For more information and to reserve tickets, visit www.lazinc.com and www.hellshalfacre
