@AlternativeLdn Presents: If You Don’t Know, Now You Know

Last week I Am Hip-Hop checked out the open­ing night of East Lon­don exhib­i­tion ‘If You Don’t Know, Now You Know’, and what an exhib­i­tion it is!  Hos­ted at the Red Gal­lery, the show is ‘a col­lec­tion of works from loc­al and inter­na­tion­al street artists who cre­ate hid­den, altern­at­ive and thought pro­vok­ing pieces in the urb­an envir­on­ment, which are usu­ally installed without the con­sent of the build­ing own­er.’

The open­ing night was incred­ible, with some amaz­ing art on dis­play and also included an awe-inspir­ing live paint ses­sion by fea­tured artist Josh Jeavons.  The artists on dis­play all strive to keep the urb­an space excit­ing and con­tro­ver­sial and the aim of this show was ‘to high­light artists who’s work chal­lenges the bulk of the mono­ton­ous, socially swal­lowed, com­mer­cial sh** that floods today’s art pub­lic, both with­in the gal­lery and out­side’
