Femme Fatale at Trispace Gallery & Bar

Stockings, suspenders, bras and basques feature prominently in a new art show titled “Femme Fatale” at the Trispace Gallery in South London.

Artist and curator, Shelley Li, said, “We are letting ourselves go with the mystique and glamour of burlesque depicted in art. A lot of the paintings have been specially created for this show and never seen before.”

What we thinking about art exhibition white wall and art work? No in this case, what you about to experience is a whole new world of art and creativity is unlimited. It appears in any form anyway which u will feel more in connected with. That is this show all about.

During the launch on 26 September there will also be a fashion show of two new 1960s/1970s retro dresses by Charlotte Machine. One is a mermaid design and the other a black PVC mini dress with transparent side panels, which she describes as “short and raunchy!”

The artists on show include shelley Li, Anna Glinkina, Anya Myagkikh, Sadiq Toma Layla Mohammed of the group, Courtly Love, as well as Stuckist artists, Charles Thomson, Joe Machine, Ella Guru, Emma Pugmire and Jasmine Surreal.

The evening starts at 6pm. There will be live music and dance performance 8-10 pm, and a DJ 10 pm – 3am.

The show runs 26 Sept – 1 Oct 2014, open 12-6 pm, Tues-Sat.
