We Preview Bottleneck Gallery’s Exciting James White Solo Exhibition: ‘Celscapes’
This Friday Bottleneck Gallery will be opening up a gallery with one of the most exciting and original concepts I have ever see. And there have been a few. On Friday, August, 29th, Bottleneck Gallery will open James White (Signalnoise)’s solo exhibition, ‘Celscapes’.
A celebration of classic painted backgrounds that we were so used to seeing in t.v shows, for ‘Celscapes’ James White will take on both modern and classic film, t.v and cartoons. We are lucky enough to share a few pieces from the show. Read one for some truly beautiful preview pieces from the show!
Starting This Friday, Matt Ferguson Gives You A Second Chance To Get Hold Of His Batman, Lord Of The Rings, Doctor Who And Alien Inspired Prints With An EPIC Sale!
Last year was an awesome year for Sheffield, UK based artist and designer Matt Ferguson and this year shows no sign of slowing down. For a while Matt has teased that he will be holding an extremely limited sale consisting of artist proof’s and extra copies of his most popular prints and this Friday is the day they will drop!
The sale will include extra’s of both The Hobbit and Lord Of The Rings inspired letter presses, “One Ring To Rule Them All” and “There And Back Again”, and artist proof’s of his Alien “Yin Yang” piece for Hero Complex Gallery, four full sets of his Bottleneck Gallery, Doctor Who prints and his Batman “He Stole My Balloons” and “I believe the word you’re looking for is “Aaahh” giclee’s.
A lot of these will be extremely limited, as few 1 in some cases, so it will be first come first served but to sweeten the pot further, Matt has also produced some exclusive Batman mini art cards that he will be randomly inserting into orders for free!
Here’s what artist and designer Matt Ferguson had to say on working on his Lord of The Rings and The Hobbit inspired pieces;
“I always liked the circular nature of the adventures in the Hobbit and Lord Of The Rings stories, how by the end of the adventure everything is set right and the Hobbits go back home the way they came. So I found myself thinking about how that would make a good piece of art, the perfect summation of “There And Back Again”. Once the idea popped into my head it all seemed so simple, why not make it all one piece with the ring and then the different locations/events that happen on the outside of it all going round in circle. I then applied the same idea to the Hobbit but instead of using a ring I thought it would be cool to use a hexagon motif, as it reminded me of the angular aspect of Dwarf society, it also just so happened that I could fit some dwarf writing into that shape better as well. I really couldn’t believe no one had come up with a similar idea before! I love it when a plan comes together.”

Mondo celebrate ‘Batman: Mask of the Phantasm’ turning 20 this year with a screening and poster by Phantom City Creative. PLUS Horkey ‘Two Towers’ and Simpson ‘Home Alone’ on sale details.
Having just produced ‘Cult Collectives 10 top picks of 2013’, Mondo and Phantom City Creative have already made a start with getting their names onto the 2014 list.
Mondo announced on their blog last night that on January 7th at the Alamo Drafthouse Ritz, they will be throwing a belated birthday party for Batman: Mask of the Phantasm, which turns 20 this Christmas. As part of the celebration, Mondo will be bringing two new limited edition posters to the 35mm screening, as seen below and available for sale in the lobby, by Phantom City Creative!
I have tremendously fond memories of Batman: Mask of the Phantasm, to this date it is still my favourite Batman movie and remains the only Batman the Animated Series movie to get a theatrical release. The vision of Batman the Animated Series creator and director Bruce Timm and regular written by Paul Dini, Batman: Mask of The Phantasm features the voice talents of the one true Batman, Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill in a post Star Wars career defining turn as The Joker.
No word as of yet on how many of these posters will be available or if there will be an online drop with any left over. Follow Mondo on Twitter to keep up to date with any announcements.
For more work by the awesome Phantom City Creative, who produced the award winning Godzilla poster this year, follow them on Twitter, too!
Today Mondo will also be releasing three new posters, the much anticipated Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers regular and variant by Aaron Horkey along with a brilliantly fun Home Alone by Adam Simpson.
Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers Poster by Aaron Horkey. 19.25″x39″ 14-color screen print. Hand numbered. Regular Edition of 505. Printed by Burlesque of North America. $100
The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers Poster by Aaron Horkey. 19.25″x39″ 7-color screen print. Hand numbered. Variant Edition of 245. Printed by Burlesque of North America. $200
