Richard Goodall closing show pics

Here are some pictures from the closing exhibition at the Richard Goodall Gallery in Manchester featuring 3 of the finest burlesque performers in the country, Fanny Divine, Lola Pops and Daison Merriere. They were modeling outfits based on my work by Kiku, the Manchester corsetry boutique.
You can find Fanny on my myspace page friends. If you would like to have a outfit of any kind made then visit Kiku at http://www.kikuboutique.co.uk/

Richard Goodall closing show

The Richard Goodall Gallery in Manchester UK has a closing show of my work and there are going to be Burlesque people there...sometimes I wish I made a bigger effort to leave my house and go see some of these shows. I think it would be fun to meet Fanny Divine as she might let me examine her corset.

Fanny Divine with Ray Caesar's Side Saddle

This series of new works consist the largest pieces to date by Caesar. The oversize pieces transport us to the weird and wonderful world inhabited by Caesar’s impossible creations. Intricate and engrossing, disturbing yet beautiful.

Also on view will be the final pieces of Caesar’s previous works, exclusively available from the gallery. His work is highly sought after and is in the collections of many famous collectors and institutions.

The event is proudly supported by Kiku, Barefoot Wine, and Vitamin Water

The Upset

Apparently I am in this book under a section called Gothic. I never thought of myself as Gothic but then I never thought of myself as a "Young Contemporary Artist" either ...more like an old odd guy that makes questionable pictures.

A new breed of contemporary artists is celebrating new found international recognition for their style and approach to creating art that is sprouting from and largely influenced by visual subcultures. The Upset documents the burgeoning artists in this new movement whose works are often figurative and narrative employing classical techniques with great skills to create sculpture, illustration design and painting with the use of spray cans, sharpies and elaborate colour palettes on canvas. In addition to the striking visual work, the book features portraits of artists as well as in-depth interviews with selected artists who are creating outstanding cutting-edge contemporary fine art.
