Cartooons go violent in new exhibition

The legendary artist and musician Jimmy Cauty will be exhibiting his latest body of work, Splatter, in which he collaborated with his son Harry.

Cauty, a founder member of the revolutionary electronic music groups The Orb, The JAMMS, KLF and the art organisations K-Foundation, Blacksmoke, has worked alongside his 15 year-old-son Harry to create an iconoclastic and disruptive body of new works entitled Splatter.

The Cautys' new project employs hijacked popular cartoon characters and liberated animations, to violent, shocking and entertaining ends, all of which will be part of their own specialist cartoon art gift shop. In a pastiche of the real world, The Aquarium L-13 gallery will produce a vast array of merchandise to support and fund this project, including original draft collages and drawings, life size models, limited edition animation cells and prints, badges, balloons and fake blood.

The exhibition is open from October 10 to November 8, 2008 at The Aquarium L-13 gallery.
