Perhaps a week or two late, here is Article’s Monthly Culture Briefing for Sheffield this December. Just a look at some stuff going on around steel town.
1. Black and Silver @ Archipelago Works
This month’s exhibion at the Archipelago Gallery has seen the commission of 20 prints by 20 different graphic designers and artists. The only rule was that each piece had to be in black and silver. The prints themselves are diverse as the names involved: Kid Acne, TDR, and Club Pony’s own Robin Beck to name but a few.
2. Royal Stock, Season Two
Exceptional home-grown t-shirt label, Royal Stock has launched its stunning new line. With the aim of providing ‘walking canvases’ for artists of various noteriety, this line of Royal Stock features works from Geo Law, Phlegm, Tom J Newell as well as shirt by founder Lord Bunn.
3. FrenchMottershead @ Site Gallery
The ongoing FrenchMottershead exhibition at the Site Gallery compiles a year long project by collaborative artistic team, Rebecca French and Andrew Mottershead. The exhibition consists of images and videos made in shops all over the world. Their work explores the premise that local shops have much to reveal about their communities. We will post our interview with the team later this month.
