One owl, three versions...when I first saw this, I though whatevs, but the best bit is the '3rd version'. This owl naturally puffs itself up when pitted against other owls of the same size, but watch what happens when the owl is face to face with a bird twice its height...sheer brilliance. MotherNature at its best!

'Bad Reception'
By Will Barras
29.10.10 - 14.11.10
“When I used to phone up Duncan (Mr Jago) he would have to go and stand on a chair in his kitchen to get reception, so I painted 'Bad Reception', the first painting I made for this body of work and the title of the show. You can see a character standing on the ledge outside his flat on the 25th floor. Does he have to stand on the ledge to get phone reception, has he just been given terrible news and he is about to jump, is he spying on the penthouse opposite, or does he just like standing on the ledge?”
Bad Reception will show case never before exhibited works, painted over the course of the past two years, by Will Barras. Featuring stunning paintings in acrylic, spraypaint, oil and ink on canvas and linen as well as a brand new limited edition hand pulled screen print by the artist.

Kris Kuksi Again
Kris Kuksi is still, hands down, one of my favourite contemporary artists. I think even HR Giger would be damn impressed to see Kuksi's dark sculptures. I've only seen one of them in the flesh (and that was a pretty small one!) and was happy, so I can't wait for him to do a proper show in the UK sometime....

The Rehash tour will coincide with the release of a new same-name mix album from the Dubs, in which a number of high-profile remixers tackle classic Dub Pistols tracks from their last three albums.
Ex-Leftfield man Paul Daley has re-made the second album’s title track, lilting stone cold classic ‘Six Million Ways To Live’, into a new wave electroid roller.
Other remixers on the project include Matthew ‘Bushwacka’ B, one half of the acclaimed Layo & Bushwacka duo, and Wrong Tom, who has just released an album of dubwise reworkings of Roots Manuva’s back catalogue, as well as underground DJ/producer hotshots such as Ben & Lex and Kouncil House.
The ‘ReHash’ album will precede the release of the next full Dub Pistols album – their fifth – on Rob Da Bank’s Sunday Best label in May 2011.
