London Arts Gallery farewell featuring Mike Ballard





Artist Mike Ballard creates an art space for the renowned Arts Gallery which sadly faces demolition around March next year to make way for the expansion of the Bond Street Tube Station. Ballard has covered the entire gallery from floor to ceiling with totally immersed artwork. The artistic archives of almost every age has been researched for inspiration and subject matter. There are skeletal Egyptian pharaohs, lunar landscapes, grafittied train-cars, bonsai trees, pulsars, Dan Brown-inspired ciphers and lightning bolts flying from giant fingers; all locked together Escher-like in a gigantic mural that literally fills up the entire gallery space.

Form + Function is not always a good thing


This gem is designed with the wine connoisseur in mind, the wine connoisseur whom would like to have their hands free to nibble on cheese or update their twitter page whilst sipping on a stellar cab.
