Brain Drain at the Winchester Discovery Centre
Wow, there are a bunch of great appearances to catch if you’re in the UK in May. This one, particularly, stands out as a Jon Burgerman event not to miss. Brain Drain will feature new paintings, prints, drawings, digital animations and soft sculpture, along with key works from the last 8 years.
Jon Burgerman’s work often deals with the modern world, disquietude, mental phenomena and irrelevant minutiae. These themes are taken as starting points for the creation of often flowing and interconnected hand rendered works that are simultaneously painting, design and mass communication.
Brain Drain is a new exhibition by the UK artist. The show will involve the squishing, twisting and wrenching of Jon’s meagre brain to elicit revelational truths and insights through the medium of pens and paint. Augmented reality, dualism, twin earth theory, the pineal gland and the perfect sandwich are current concerns being wrung out.
Brain Drain runs from May 14th – July 11th, and smack in the middle, on May 26th at 8PM for a £5 sum, you can meet the man. This all takes place at The Gallery in the Winchester Discovery Centre, which, I kid you not, is located on JEWRY Street. Loves it! Someone send pictures! RSVP for the 5/26 talk here.
