STUCKISM

INSTITUTIONS AND PLACES

What's on guides

London art guide from Spoonfed - comprehensive and independent site

Museums/Galleries

ArtWatch International monitors (often dubious) conservation of art. ArtWatch UK UK branch

http://dblackie.blogs.com Watchdog site on the British Council

The Walker Art Gallery Liverpool. Internationally-renowned and government-funded like the Tate, but does the job the Tate ought to be doing by presenting new art movements (we do particularly have the Stuckist one in mind) to the general public.

The Tate Gallery Modern Art museum in London. Has a few good paintings that you can view when the rooms are not closed for redecorating, or being used as embalming studios or bedrooms.

Mall Galleries "traditional modern" is we believe the term that applies here. A number of different art societies under the umbrella of the FBA (Federation of British Artists).

Museum of Bad Art which actually contains some rather good art, certainly preferable to the Turner Prize.

Hoxton/Shoreditch & environs

www.artshole.co.uk Artshole - specialising in student art - a good idea.

www.artwords.co.uk Artwords Bookshop, 65a Rivington Street London EC2A 3QQ Tel: 020 7729 2000 Email: shop@artwords.co.uk Stocks books you would expect in Shoreditch, but stocks The Stuckists too.

www.laviande.co.uk Now closed. Independent gallery (in the former Stuckism International premises)

www.thecentreofattention.org Now moved and itinerant. The Centre of Attention. Intrepid gallerists Pierre & Gary. Beware of bar staff.

PRACTICAL HELP

Fire risk of linseed oil

Drying oils/linseed oil on rags/tissues can spontaneously combust. Lindsey Jardine said it happened to her (post on facebook): "DO NOT throw yr paper towels soaked in drying linseed oil in the trash- it WILL spontaneously catch flames!!!!!!!! ... it was a wad of paper towels completely soaked with oil because it was a clean up after a spill. and 3 hours later that shit was smokin! hah! there's a danger warning in the smallest print on the bottle: "Product may spontaneously catch fire if improperly discarded. Immediately after use, place rags in a sealed water-filled metal container.""

The Winsor and Newton Health and Safety Data Sheets for drying oils say: "Possible spontaneous combustion on drying." Wolf House burnt down from a fire started in this way. See fire report: "A loosely piled handful of cotton rags dampened with boiled linseed oil has been shown by our experiments to be capable of self-heating to flaming ignition in a few hours."
