| About the Artist | |
The Apocalyptic Anthropomorphism of the Pure Evil Bunny was spawned in San Francisco and was first spotted in London around the turn of the millennium along with other characters in the So Fuzzy Crew, infamous for for writing ''WAR IS SO LAST CENTURY'' LARGE under a bridge in the East End. Pure Evil and the S.F.C. are the aliases of one man. His pop gothic artwork is inspired by death metal , rock zombies and home studio vampires everywhere. His work can be seen in cities worldwide. |

| this is all in future tense... but it should be in past tense.. you get the idea.. PURE EVIL at the ZOO ART FAIR !!! Pretty darn excited about this one… the ZOO ART FAIR is on at the same time as FRIEZE the big art fair in Hyde park.. But its MUCH cooler because lots of indy galleries are showing there, and we don’t give a monkeys about SAATCHI and WHITE CUBE.. (sorry Charles im only joking I do care about you A LOT) OUR MISSION IS JUST TO PAINT. Oh and its in the LONDON ZOO how cool is that... So PURE EVIL is going to be there on the BEAUTIFUL CRIME stand.. Come on down and check it out it should be GROOVY. KILLER RABBITS IN NEW YORK!!! On the 9th of september PURE EVIL had an art show in Union Square in New York... check out http://www.pureevilclothing.com/newyork/newyork.html for photographs from the show. PURE EVIL VINYL SHOW An intersection between Graffiti art, DJ culture and Fetish clothing. “One morning at 6am I was lying in bed half asleep thinking about women, and then I was thinking about records…. I fell back to sleep for a few minutes and I think the two became merged together… I woke up with a new idea… my life long love of women and of record collecting had merged into an idea for a new show… Heres the Recipe for vinyl women: Heat 12” white labels to 450 degrees C until they turn soft andpliable, almost like liquorice. Form the records onto a naked female form (a real woman preferably) until they cool and harden. Leave the women to cool and then drill the records and bolt them together. Hang them and go ‘WOW’… sit back and marvel at the beauty of vinyl women. Working with ‘THE VINYL FACTORY’ I’ve have created 6 women using 12” white labels produced by the old EMI record pressing plant and I showed these along with new PURE EVIL paintings on vinyl at the PHONICA record store from April 14 to May 18. The show has now transferred to HOMESTEAD locatedat 148-150 St Johns Street, Clerkenwell, London EC1.” THE NEW BERLIN WALL Pure Evil report from Bread and Butter Berlin "Berlin day one.. I got to Berlin last wednesday for the Bread and Butter show, picked up 99 euros worth of paint and spent 20 hours on this piece... ( I slept for about 4 hours ) then it was transported in 7 pieces to the `Barcelona` room in the show... Biggest piece I`ve done, it was about 20 metres long... more Berlin photos to follow on the fotolog, including PURE EVIL bunnies in Potsdamer Platz, at the Brandenburg Gate and in the bleakest corners of East Berlin... " Pure Evil DITCHED Party PURE EVIL took part in the DITCHED magazine benefit party at 17 Kingsland Rd on the 18th ofNovember… it rocked, and featured work by Blek le Rat also.. He rules. DEATH ON KINGSLAND ROAD : PURE EVIL ONE MAN SHOW 4 days to paint the inside of 17 Kingsland rd, and 4 days of rock'n'roll and dementia thanks to the participation of the greatest rock n roll band EVER!!! BOEDEKKA!!! … Vikings, Cathedrals, Poets, Pipers, pure evil Rabbits and DEATH. Paris Stencil Project : Day One This had been planned about a year ago, with artists from France, Great Britain, Italy, Usa, Denmark, Portugal, and Spain in attendance...The artists who made the weekend were Blek le Rat, Jef Aerosol, mosoko, Epsylon Pointpoch, Gil Bensmana (poster),Silencio, Taksi, Spliff, Pure Evil (me) and a whole lot more who I cant remember.... I showed up there on Friday and was met at good ol' Gare du Nord by one of the organisers who took me by metro to one of the first locations where there was frenzied stencil action going on in a long lean alleyway... It was quite amazing to be just dropped in at the deep end, I didnt know what the rules were, and I learned that there werent really ANY.. which suits me fine. I picked up some of the free paint that was in abundance and just went for it, mixing it up with stencil artists from the old school and new school. I thought about the protective facemask I left in Shoreditch, held my breath, and went for it.… After about 3 hours I finally exhaled and stepped back and admired the work, created by about 12 people working in syncopation... although there wasnt the fear of capture by police that i'm so used to in London , and there was the luxury of having the time to paint and stop and think and paint again, the adrenalin was still there. Because the standard was so high , there was no room for error. If mr cock-up came calling, I wasnt home. When the whole wall was done , everybody chilled and I caught a moment to look up and down the street itself "wow im really in Paris, this is COOOOOOL". It was well beatnik, there were guys with berets and goatees all over the place. Awesome.Next wall was about 100 metres long, so I just picked a nice flat spot and went for it... beautiful french girls offered to help me hold up my stencils while I painted. It was really getting interesting... I thought I'd set the pace a bit in the Pocoiriste (stencil artist) pelloton, so I finished my piece in about 20 minutes , just as the Gendarmes showed up. It was a legal spot, we'd got permission to paint it, to the delight of the people working in the office opposite ( "more paint! more colour" ) but for some reason the permission hadn't landed on the desk of the local police... so everybody stood around and fannied about for an hour... It was a bust, we had to move on. This was more like it. It was time to find a supermarche and get some beers in and wash the paint out of my throat. If you want to know where to find the booze in an unfamiliar arrondissement, ask the wino's. That night a convoy of cars wound its way to another alleyway opposite a beatnik stencil gallery that fed us cous cous (so good they named it twice) and beer. Sweet. The wall opposite was totally covered , it seemed like it had been a spot for centuries... the only course of action was to go UP. We grabbed the crappiest ladder, one that had a nice kink in the middle , and started working on pieces 25 feet off the ground, hanging onto a Telegraph pole for some kind of security. I learned to love the ladder. I was terrified but I knew i wasnt getting down until it was all done. Painting was the new spectator sport in Paris... I dont know if people really wanted to see me fall, or if they just were wondering exactly what I was doing up on the second floor of the building... but It was entertaining apparently. I got down off the ladder, got a beer and finally met Blek le Rat ... If you dont know him, you should. BLEK !!! He's the DON CORLEONE of stencil art. Big Respects to everybody who was involved... See you at the next one. PURE EVIL participated in the following other Graffiti / Art shows.. THE NEW EAST ENDERS with ADAM NEATE and WALESKA NOMURA The INDIVISIBLE CITIES show is a part of the Backjumps show in Berlin. It is a one-on-one personal exchange, where the result of one person's interpretation of another's work is part of the project. http://www.toyshopcollective.com/indivisible.html The HOLLYWOOD SHOW in NY , publicity photos and posters from Classic Hollywood films have been taken and mutated. check the link out. http://www.woostercollective.com/ International DOODLEBUG day no.7 detonated on Saturday 04 september with large scale llive painting at Londons vibe bar / Truman Brewery courtyard on Brick Lane.PURE EVIL ,The London Police, Galo, Mysterious al, PMH, Adam Neate, Buddy Lembeck, Downey, Verbs, loads of others all doodled in the sun.

| DIFUSOR INTERNATIONAL STENCIL MEETING This is the first of a BUNCH of summer projects im going to be doing .... check out the website... theres going to be some heavyhitters there...stenciltastic...I've got me a wall there thats the same size as the original GUERNICA so I've got 12 hours to paint a fullsize version of it.. should be a challenge. "Difusor is a project for bringing together European artists who use stencils on the street... We would also like to help create dialogue and links between different stencil-related collectives . All this in a city, Barcelona, with a very important street art scene at a time when the political and cultural debate about this subject is very active. ! " PURE EVIL SOLO SHOW Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday.... the show is over and I think it has been a ROCKING success... I cant believe it all happened, nothing got destroyed or damaged, I didnt get arrested and lot and lots of people came to see the show , and a fair few bought prints / t-shirts and paintings.... Thanks a gazillion to Steph from Stella Dore, to Ross who helped me hang the show, to Dora and Dolly from POW who helped me to run 'tings on thursday night.. to Marcos who framed the paintings in Wales, to Tim who drove the paintings up to me overnight on wednesday, to my mum and dad for helping to co-ordinate things when we thought the framer had disappeared with all the paintings ( he hadn't ) .. thanks to the printers who did an unbelievable job , thanks to the neon guys who helped me hook up the neon bunnies for free...thanks to the guy on Ebay who sold me the plan chest for £70 what a bargain... thanks for my international man with a van crew from peru , the punjab and poland who helped me squeeze the paintings back into my house this morning...Thanks to anybody who has bought paintings and prints from me in the past ... Thanks to everybody who came to see the show ... Thanks to my benefactors in Mallorca who prepaid for 8 of the paintings so I had the funds to pay for the whole thing...and the biggest thanks goes to the nice people at the Old Truman Brewery especially the lovely Tamsin who helped me to make it happen.. to view theshow : go to PURE EVIL SOLO SHOW PAGE http://www.pureevilclothing.com/solo.html I have been asked to take over at BEAUTIFUL CRIME and so I have invited a DIRTY DOZEN of new artists on the site.. We thought it was time to step things up a notch and also to get something NEW and DYNAMIC going on.. As it is going with artists this might turn out to be the DIRTY SIXTEEN or the DIRTY TWENTY FOUR we'll see... here are the artists. I love them all equally.. M-CITY HERAKUT BORIS HOPPEK OLIVIER KOSTA-THEFAINE FEFE TALAVERA EPHAMERON JOANNA IMRIE OTHER VAGABUNDOS ZOSEN (ok hes been on BC for a while but we have a new print in the pipes) CALMA PMH MR KERN DEM666 here is our plan : step 1 : set up profiles and galleries. step 2 : sell original art and objects direct from the artist studios. step 3 : produce lovingly crafted prints working alongside the artists. step 4 : organise a MASSIVE group show called ANTI-FRIEZE in October to coincide with the FRIEZE show. step 5 : fill the streets with art. I was hanging in San Francisco for just under 6 months last year when I got an email from PICTURES ON WALLS to see if I was interested in doing a print for them.. YES.. so inna James Bond fashion I flew back to London to make the PANDAS ROCK print, and then ended up extending my stay to work at the SANTAS GHETTO show on Oxford street , which was AWESOME.. I hung out at POW , did a spot of screenprinting and print rolling, and then spent 3 months down in Wales cutting stencils and making some BIG artworks and collages.. planning, planning, painting. So now I have set myself up with an office space in Shoreditch, and I have a new home in London Fields...a real house with a garden and all the rest...Since I've been back in London I've been on a steep learning curve working on producing my OWN prints independently , and working on the BEAUTIFUL CRIME site , hooking up other artists on the site and building it up.The next step is to do a BIG PURE EVIL show called MAY GOD HAVE MERCY ON MY ENEMIES : BECAUSE I WON'T . Im getting all my paintings from San Francisco and Wales stretched at the moment , and then I am going to punk it and stick them up in a space in the East End, invite some people down and see what happens. |
