Herakut at Campbarbossa

herakut

Campbarbossa is presenting a commission-only show for the European duo, Herakut, in London:

New Works by Herakut
28th Nov through to 7th Dec 2008
Preview 27th Nov 6.30pm - 9.30pm (RSVP info@campbarbossa.com)
22 Wellington Street
Covent Garden
WC2E 7DD

For the uninitiated, Herakut are unlikely collaborative German artists extraordinaire, the cunning confluence of aliases Hera and Akut and the finest artistic alliance of Frankfurt and Efurt the modern art world has to offer. It’s not like we’ve actually researched this part but if there’s a finer alliance we’d like to know. All the works on display are new, pre-commissioned pieces. So this is simply an opportunity to come along, hang out, have a fine time, admire Herakut’s increasingly bold, unique body of work—the strangely beautiful union of Akut’s photorealist spray paint and Hera’s distinctively scratchy, sexualised, everyday world.
