Celebrating its 4th anniversary, the Hundred Years Gallery presents ‘HYG Editions’, a collection of works from 8 familiar faces that have collaborated with the gallery before. The exhibition runs parallel to our programmed exhibition ‘The Decline of Conscience’, a photo series of Nick JS Thompson displaying the inescapable problem of gentrification in London.
For this special occasion, the gallery is treating its visitors with limited edition prints, selected drawings and collage work from artists Yvonne Yiwen Feng, Helen Bermingham, Victoria Kovalenko, Maey Lemley, Nick JS Thompson, Lex Thomas, Jaime Valtierra and Rita Says, as a thank you for their interest in the gallery. They also see this exhibition as an opportunity to show they are extremely grateful towards the artists that have been more than supported for the last 4 years and to encourage new talent to engage with the project.
If you grown a liking for any of the exhibited artists there will be a more than pleasant surprise awaiting at the gallery. Besides an exciting collection of exclusives as well as never-seen artwork, the Hundred Years Gallery will be hosting ‘Editions’ workshops for community groups and schools, giving possible up-and-coming artists the opportunity to get involved, learn, play and explore all there is to know about the mysteries of art. And here is your extra bonus: the artists showing their work at the exhibition will be your workshop teachers.
The exhibition will be running from November 19th until December 20th. However better go sooner than later, it will be over before you know it and this exciting and fruitful event is one you don’t want to be passing out on.
Editions launches with a private view November 19th 2015

Simon Payne’s NOT AND OR to screen at Close-Up Film Centre
On the 16th April the Close-up Film Centre in Shoreditch will play host to a night of weird and wonderful digital creations by abstract filmmaker Simon Payne.
On the 16th April the Close-up Film Centre in Shoreditch will play host to a night of weird and wonderful digital creations by abstract filmmaker Simon Payne.
Close-Up is committed to supporting and developing the exhibition of independent and experimental cinema, focusing on the cross over between the arts and film culture.
The night is part #4 of their Teaser Screening series of videos. Simon’s film ‘Not And Or,’ will be screened last along with some of his other digital exerts such as, ‘Colour Bars’ and ‘Cut Out.’
The films all turn on the concept of indefinite qualities of images, colour, shapes and sounds from shot to shot or moment-to-moment. Hence, his erratic film making style, which sees Payne subvert the ideas of what we think we see by manipulating time and space.
In ‘Not And Or’, we see black and white quadrilaterals spinning in virtual space that alternate with the same static shapes re-filmed from screen in real space. The second half of the piece is the same as the first, but flipped, reversed and re-filmed again, through successive generations – adding while taking away.
The program includes pieces from 1997 to 2014, from observational films to hard-edge abstraction primarily focused on experimental video, promising to open up your mind to the different dimensions at the interface of digital design.
The screening is a futurist’s call for new autonomous cinema for the modern age, helping to merge the lines between artistic mediums of art and film. The event ultimately calls upon us the viewers to debate the notion of what we consider as art and the question: Can video installations be considered a form of artistic expression in the same way film is?
Expand the realm of art in this rare screening of mind-altering digital videos. Alternatively, invest in a worthy membership at the Close-Up Film Centre that allow committed film enthusiasts to raid their huge archive of experimental and independent films and discount admission on film screenings.
