The exhibition reflects a diversity of artworks which through its often complex creation, is infused with significance. The series of concerns we address as artists as we craft our work is never simple and draws on a multitude of external factors as we play with ideas of truth and meaning, the seen and the unseen. This is the first in a series of fine art exhibitions for the London Festival Fringe www.londonfestivalfringe.com 23rd-27th April, 1-6pm Nolias Gallery 60 Great Suffolk Street SE1 0BL

10 – 27 July	Solo exhibition by Pierre Gerard Private View Thursday 10 July, 6 – 9 pm "The Plb series". For the exhibition, I have been inspired by "plb schnzl", a fictionnal character -or a noise- that I used as pseudonym. Working with somebody else's identity opened up new possibilities for my work - which means I had plenty of good excuses to be as outlandish and irrational as I fancied -. The pieces I made are playful, nonsensical and disturbing at the same time. There are faceless princesses, non-descript business men, shady Uncle Sam waving from a kebab skewer, enlighened Lego-man going through the crowd of Pierros, small kings and scuba divers... The world as it really is! A show with a lot to look at. We will have paintings and small texts I mounted on paper and cardboard. I even made up a song for the occasion. A song about bullying.
13 – 29 June	Solo exhibition by Julian Woodward Private View Friday 13 June, 6 – 9 pm
30 May-2 June	LONGLOST FRIENDs PRIVATE VIEW: 30 May 2008 at 18:30 Using discarded toys as building blocks to form sculptures, adorn clothing and nature, Ozden Demir and Alp Gokalp create art pieces that takes you back to your childhood memories. Toys that are no longer with children, all gathered from charity shops all around London, evoke playful memories of childhood thus bringing a new approach to "grown up life". The works are not only about self-projection but also exploring children's' inspiration, imagination, fascination and memories. In this unusual show the viewer is asked to indulge in the playfulness. Perhaps you will re-unite with a "longlost friend" that you have given up among the works. An old feeling from childhood… It may be emotional or may be not? OZDEN DEMIR ALP GOKALP introducing HONEY PINE DRESSER "LIVE"

X-Pose is based around a group show of artworks by members of DAN (Deptford Arts Network) to be held in the Cor Blimey Arts gallery, located on Creekside. The treasure hunt combines a raffle where one of three artworks can be won by anyone who takes part – you must collect a card from any of the studios participating and get it stamped as you visit the different exhibitions being held for Deptford X.
