Yeah okay, I know, it looks like we’re being lazy and rather like we haven’t done any Cultivate type things since those two rather intense Intent shows back at the start of the year. Well there has been all the Organ stuff and the Cherry Bombs and the circles and the #365ArtDrop18 pieces and the…
One year on from the Cultivate experiments and the notions of formal on-line website-based art exhibitions, there’s been five of them so far, culminating in the rather successful Intent (Part One) show that opened in January 2018 One year on, did they work? The first of the five shows, Red, went live one year ago…
Intent (part two) happened, people came, art excited, performance took place and well, read all about it over on the Organ pages – ORGAN THING: Highwaymen, circles and some sympathy for the devil, the intent of an artist-led group show in a basement in East London… The thing about an art show in the heart of…

The farm was fun, that one end of year thing will do for us, art is for life, not just for Christmas. We don’t really do black Fridays, Christmas fairs, mince pies and flogging art to death on line like it means little more than a Christmas cracker and a bit of old tinsel. I…
We shall be taking a small Cultivate stall along to Hackney City Farm’s Christmas Fair on Saturday December 9th, expect a selection of very affordable pieces of art. And may we politely point out (again) that original pieces of very affordable art do make for far far better gifts than some heartless piece of mass…
