Gordon Dalton's new exhibition, When Life Gives You Lemons, Suplex Those Lemons, starts at the Keith Talent Gallery on 23rd April.The press release sez, "When Life Gives You Lemons, Suplex Those Lemons uses wrestling terminology to quash life’s melancholic bitterness. Paintings from 2004, when the art world was booming, take a slapstick sideswipe at art critics and look even more adolescent and pathetic in retrospect. These are shown alongside one of Dalton’s off-kilter constructions, with a shark costume cartoonishly devouring somebody, perhaps the artist himself."
Art world waffle, obviously. But Gordon's work is incredibly witty and well worth venturing out to Tower Hamlets for.
