Bond is dead. Craig's out. To revive the world’s most famous spy we must return to the very beginning. But who is brave enough? Who has the courage to bring Bond back? Known for his ethnically ambiguous bone structure and dynamic physicality, Carlos Sandin is bringing a Bond that obliterates all others. The new undercover hero we never knew we needed. A fresh take on a modern classic this show is for fans of the franchise, the uninitiated, or anyone who has ever wished Bond was just a bit... whackier. Expect action, live music, and multi-roling like you've never seen before. ‘Chokes you with absurdity until you finally surrender to the madness’ ★ ★ ★ ★ (West End Best Friend) ‘Sandin’s true undisputed talent as a clown performer is on full show’ ★ ★ ★ ★ (The Reviews Hub) ‘a seductive wingding of a play and a delight to behold and be held by.’ ★ ★ ★ ★ (North West End) ‘a very vague sense of narrative’ * (Everything Theatre) Information Source: The Pen Theatre | eventbrite

Monster | Love | Melancholy is an exploration of the human experience, examining the complex relationship between love, despair, and the inner monsters that inhabit us. This group exhibition of five artists investigates the cyclical forces shaping our emotional landscape, where clarity and confusion coexist in constant motion. Through a range of mediums—paintings, drawings, photography, poetry, and song—these artists from varied backgrounds and disciplines reveal the universality of this triad, uncovering its ancient roots and modern reconfigurations. Hosting the exhibition at The Tabernacle, Notting Hill, a space once devoted to the sacred and now serving the secular needs of the local community, feels fitting. Whether through faith or reason, this triad offers a mirror to the fragility and and complexity of being human. We invite you to confront and contemplate the cyclical forces of Monster | Love | Melancholy. PRIVATE VIEW: 30th October 2024 (6-10 PM) Exhibition Dates: 30th October- 2nd November 2024 Opening Hours: 31st October-2nd November 2024 ( 12-7 pm) Exhibiting Artists: Siobhan Binaghi, Rhiannon Davies, Irini Folerou, Wayne Lee and Stefan Stoicescu Information Source: Siobhan Binaghi | eventbrite

Timothy Taylor is pleased to present Paris: An Experimental Reality at the gallery’s London space. This group exhibition is dedicated to the dynamic conversations among a group of expatriate painters in Paris in the years immediately following the Second World War, spurring an extraordinary body of work by artists including James Bishop, Sam Francis, Carmen Herrera, Shirley Jaffe, Paul Jenkins, Ellsworth Kelly, and Joan Mitchell. The seven artists featured, who worked in a spectrum of painterly modalities informed both by American Abstract Expressionism and European Modern art, were all drawn to the city in the years between 1948 and 1957. It was a time of renewed artistic energy in the City of Light, one which, while initially overshadowed by the concurrent rise of Abstract Expressionism in New York, had a major impact on the history of Modern art. Of the male artists included in this show, all but James Bishop (who narrowly avoided conscription) had previously encountered Europe as soldiers during World War II. They returned to the city after the war in hopes of

Lehmann Maupin is pleased to announce an exhibition of new works by pioneering Japanese artist Mr., marking the artist’s debut solo presentation in the United Kingdom. Across a new body of work, including painting, sculpture, and works on paper, the exhibition harnesses the Japanese aesthetics of anime (presented with motion and sound) and manga (presented in a print medium) as a means of examining Japanese culture, fusing high and low forms of contemporary expression. The works on view continue Mr.’s longstanding interest in the circulation of popular imagery and its role in fantastical or escapist world-building that stems from postwar Japanese youth subculture.

Her graphic scores are also housed in the prestigious Lit & Phil Library in Newcastle. This October, she will release her latest album, Undercurrents, a minimalist exploration with subtle influences from blues and jazz, reflecting the natural soundscapes of the Scottish Outer Hebrides. Additionally, her upcoming project with electronic music artist Alien Alarms further exemplifies her role as a leading voice in contemporary music.

A Haunting Exploration of Absence and Memory Exhibition Dates 29th October - 9th November 2024 | Willesden Gallery Private View: 31st October 2024 | 6 to 8 pm About the Exhibition Susanne Baumann presents her first solo exhibition: Fading Echoes - a poignant and thought-provoking collection of paintings, created between 2022 and now. She invites you to an intimate exploration of what makes someone present, and the silence and empty spaces they leave behind when they are not. Fading Echoes is more than an exhibition; it is an intimate narrative of Baumann's personal odyssey through the labyrinth of grief and memory. The artist's father's 20-year long battle with Alzheimer's has left an indelible mark, shaping her in profound ways. This deeply personal struggle forms the core of Baumann's current work, as she endeavours to visually express the slow and heartbreaking process of witnessing a loved one slowly fade away. Baumann's art delves into her experience of absence - not just as a void but as a tangible presence. Her paintings evoke the quiet murmurs of memories; the remnants of a presence that lingers, long after the people we knew are gone. Each piece is an acknowledgement of the continuous passage of time and the way it erodes memory, identity, and our connections to those we love. “Fading Echoes” is driven by the question: What remains of us when we slowly but surely disappear - is it just echoes of ourselves? About the Artist Susanne Baumann is a German artist, currently based in London. She completed her Master's Degree in Painting at the Royal College of Art in 2023, having obtained a distinction in her Graduate Diploma there in Art & Design with a focus on Fine Arts in 2022. She has co-curated, organised, and participated in group exhibitions at numerous locations throughout London, including: D Contemporary, 4 Corners Gallery, Willesden Gallery, HSBC Head Quarters, Royal College of Art, Core Arts Gallery, Citizens Art London Gallery, and Safehouse 1&2. From September to November she shows work in Shanghai at Astra Art Gallery. She was longlisted for the Visual Art Open 2023 and has been granted a place in the Professional Development Program 2024 with new platform.art. Information Source: Susanne Baumann | eventbrite

We have considered and learnt from the extensive resources generously shared for free by Alexis J. Cunningfolk of the Worts + Cunning Apothecary - please do check out Alexis' extensive blog posts about the sliding scale: http://www.wortsandcunning.com/blog/sliding-scale Below is Alexis' quick guide to the sliding scale, to help you decide where to place yourself on it... QUICK GUIDE TO THE SLIDING SCALE *The top price ticket is the actual cost of the class. If you choose a ticket price below the top tier you are receiving a discount. We have called this option 'Halloweenie'. *The middle price is for those who are able to meet their basic needs but have little-to-no expendable income. Paying for this class may qualify as a sacrifice but it would not create hardship. We have called this option 'Scared of the Dark'. The bottom price is for those who struggle to meet their basic needs and paying for this class would be a significant hardship. We have called this option 'Zombie'. *For folx who are unable to pay anything, please email us at ashrideslondon@gmail.com, there are a handful of no cost bikes available in every ride. There are a small number of bikes in every ride which are priced higher than the actual cost of the class. These are solidarity tickets which allow those with the means to do so to 'pay it forward' and subsidise the lower/no cost tickets. We have called these tickets 'Killer Queen'. (Please note we cannot offer refunds, but if you're unable to make it, let us know at least 48 hours ahead of the class and we'll do what we can to transfer your ticket to another Ash Rides London class, subject to availability)!
