ACID HOUSE ART EXHIBITION


An interesting Art Exhibition started today at the Idea Generation Gallery in London. Visual art of the 80s acid house generation and the balearic scene of the 90s are showcased in the form of the artists commissions for album covers, flyers and posters plus newly commissioned pieces for the event.
Luke Insect, Leo Zero and Dave Little are amongst the most influential graphic artists in the country and join together as a collective known as 'Golden Sun Movement'. Their works include flyers for Spectrum Club Nights, Boys Own designs, artwork for the likes of Nike, MTV and Michiko Koshino plus work for bands including Gorillaz, William Orbit and The Prodigy.
The Psychedelia imagery is heavily inspired by the 60s but the unique perspective of the Acid House and Balearic scenes stand out.
The show runs until 08 May.
