New Bonfire of Vanities pictures....

 

Bonfire of Vanities - work in progress

Just back from dismantling this display of my cartoneras  and cartonera Dante's, with these quick sheets of first proofs for a new cartonera Bonfire of Vanities.... images based around Savonarola, Manegna's Virtus Combusta, more recent times with Walter Benjamin's Arcades Project and Paul Klee's Angel of History - Angelus Novus

Hopefully this new cartonera will be ready in time to show and sell at the Linklater Pavilion on November 12th at the Railway and Trust's Green Christmas Fair 

-Sadly I forgot to take installation shots at Fitzroy House - juggling too many things at once as usual
