Hew Locke: Natives and Colonials
Hew Locke: Natives and Colonials
2005-03-04 until 2005-04-23
Hales Gallery
London, , UK United Kingdom
Hew Locke's first solo show at Hales Gallery ‘Natives and Colonials' continues the artist's longstanding preoccupation with the British Royal Family. Born in Edinburgh in 1959, Locke's family moved to British Guyana where he spent his formative years before returning to Britain to study sculpture. Locke's fascination with the British monarchy started during his school days, printed on the front cover of every exercise book in British Guyana was the head of the Queen and no child was allowed to deface her image.
Having completed an MA in sculpture at the Royal College and shown his large sculpture ‘Hemmed In Two' at the Victoria and Albert Museum, he returned to his past fascination with all things Royal. Locke began to see the Royal Family as a vehicle through which he confronted and evaluated his experiences of growing up in British Guyana and his work began to develop a sense of a resulting cultural clash.
Locke's interest in the Royals as iconic signs of status, history and culture can be seen in his current series of large portraits of the Queen. Locke breaks down the image and then renders this famous face in his own terms, creating elaborate glitzy effigies with a hint of menace, out of modest materials such as plastic lizards, sequin waste, fake machine gun parts and silk flowers. The resulting excessive embellishments create a visual overload and bring to mind the flowers and fluffy animals heaped at Kensington Garden's makeshift shrine to Lady Diana, Princess of Wales, after her death.
A recently completed series of watercolour portraits of the Queen and Lady Diana will also be on show. Richly patterned and tribal in feel, these works are reminiscent of Locke's ‘Cardboard Palace' shown at Chisenhale Gallery in 2002.
Locke's work has recently been shown at Tate Britain as part of British Art Week. His work is currently touring in a two-person show with Diana Cooper, organised by The Drawing Room (a catalogue accompanies this exhibition) and in the group show 'Boys Who Sew', organised by The Crafts Council. Hew has an upcoming solo show at the Walsall New Art Gallery opening on 30th April 2005. View more of Hew Locke's work at: hewlocke.net

Los Angeles-Based Fateless Flows Collective
Los Angeles-Based Fateless Flows Collective
Release Their Second Compilation
Shadowmath
Los Angeles, CA - Following on the heels of their debut CD compilation Volume 1, the Fateless Flows Collective (http://fatelessflows.com) are set to independently release their second compilation entitled Shadowmath on March 1, 2005. The second compilation exhibits a contrasting variety of alternative and experimental electronic music by recording artists who have banded together to form this collective in Los Angeles. Thirteen different artists from the collective are featured on this 18-track CD.
While Volume 1 adopted a pure dance culture sound, the collective's second volume, Shadowmath, is a more sophisticated effort and is designed to exhibit a diverse range from chill-out soundscapes to hardcore dance beats alike.
Shadowmath seeps into reflective moodscapes that fill-in the road between the compilation's raw alternative-sounding cuts. The track selection and structure of Shadowmath dips from an atmospheric setting into a frantic, rhythmic riot, and then back. Shadowmath also features tracks from 5 newer members of the collective including Dream Electric, Zygote, Kathie Talbot, Vic Hennegan and Tripform.
Many members of the collective have released material in the past, are members of other bands, and have colorful and deep histories. Some recent Fateless Flows performance activities by members of the collective include Constant Flux and Dream Electric who played at the opening of MOCA's exhibition “Visual Music" in February '05. Surface 10 Activity, Niture, Constant Flux, and Appogee all performed at the closing of the hugely successful rare Van Gogh exhibit at LACMA in 2003. Zygote was a SXSW '04 performer, and Appogee played at the National Skateboarding Tournament in 2003. Many of the members have released new full-length albums in the past year or so, which are mentioned in the album’s track list below.
Currently, the Fateless Flows Collective consists of the members listed on Shadowmath as well as these additional members: The Trace Element aka Henry Tsao, Cavestar aka Kevin Crosslin, Sequanox aka James Cowgil, Violent Fingers aka Laura Escude and Reed Rothchild aka Jess Stroup.
Artist(s): Fateless Flows Collective
Title: Shadowmath
Track Listing:
1.) Indicia - "Rescue Me (interlude)"
www.indiciamusic.com
Indicia aka Betsy Ullery & David Ward -
Coming from distinctly different musical backgrounds, this vocalist/keyboardist duo integrates the organic and the digital into innovative electronic music that is "Indicia" (cannabis indica style). Developing a strong following in LA, their songs blend original electronic loops and samples with harmonic melody and straight-out dance-floor beats. Indicia has been aired often on LA radio stations and made appearances at major clubs like The Viper Room and The Knitting Factory. They've also released their first CD "Indicia."
2.) Appogee - "Coral"
- >From the album Unconscious Ruckus
www.appogeemusic.com
Appogee aka Jay Skinner -
Pushing the boundaries of sonic exploration, Jay Skinner's spectacular shows feature a wild mix of electronically processed guitars over a shifting aural canvass that will go from glitch IDM across the goth/industrial gamut into ambient drones. His Appogee releases include Down on the Dots, Unconscious Ruckuss on Kanpai/Domo Records, the tech country EP "Brightly Shining, Dimly Lit" and remixes for Bright Eyes, Zykos, and H is Orange.
3.) Kathie Talbot - "Blandula XT"

Zygote uses the mechanized process of electronic music production to express complex human emotion. The tools of his output are computers, tape recorders, wires and other conduits of noise.

"Can't we all just get along?" De Benedictis' music under his original moniker Surface 10 (Hypnotic, DiN, SFM Records) has taken many stylistic twists since its genesis in 1996, and has been featured on radio throughout the globe and talked about throughout the Net.
