Leeds Art Fair 2009

Leeds Art Fair is an annual event and we made certain we were there again this year to sample the tasty treats on display. This year we came armed with snazzy camera enabled mobile phones so we could take piccies to document the occasion. Check em out:

I have to just say that I'm being quite biased with this artist (because I'm really into the hand-drawn style at the moment) but I thought this display by Kathryn Edwards was beautiful.

Here's Johnny checking out Helen Parsley's work. Incredible art and beautifully framed too.

We finished off our daily dose of creative inspiration by popping into the Leeds College of Art & Design for their Damien Hirst exhibition: "In a Spin, The Action of the World on Things."

The entry below was written on Wikipedia for Damien Hirst: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damien_Hirst

What Hirst has insightfully observed of his spin-paintings in Life and Death and Damien Hirst is the only comment that needs to be made of his entire oeuvre:

"They're bright and they're zany - but there's fuck all there at the end of the day."

We have to agree with Damien really...
