Charlie Tuesday Gates presents The Museum House of Death


C.T.G’s first solo show since retirement will be at 
THE VAULTS
Waterloo 
Arch 233 Leake Street, SE1 7NN
Private View 22May 
6.30- 9.30pm
Performance 7.30pm
Transporting you into a fantasy underworld, where beauty and death collide with nostalgia and borderline insanity.
Come and experience lost lives and forgotten pasts sitting together in juxtor posed shrines. Terrifying, intriguing, provocative mixed media assemblage sculpture. Blunt visual puns and methods mock popular culture and tradition. Using context as a vortex, surrounding it with a mystical air of surreal absurdist humour. 
---
As well as sculpture, controversial animalation video pieces will also be screened as well as performance, where real animal are manipulated by hand to perform, sing and dance. Some viewers will find all of these images deeply offensive as they push the limits on taste, ethics and the subject of controversy itself...

 I'll be doing excerpts from the musical show 'SING FOR YOUR LIFE!'  A talent contest where the recently deceased compete for the chance to live again. 
A cross between X Factor and Pet Rescue.



Not for the faint hearted, weak stomached or easily offended...

Plug Me In, Turn Me On

I've been banned from Facebook again.  Whoops. My mum says I need to stop. It’s like, my 5 th   time now. They keep telling me that if I do anything wrong again that’s it. Wiped off the face of the face…book. I’m a repeat offender you see. Keep publishing indecent material apparently. God knows what I was dreaming about but I woke up and the first thing I did was this. It's a collage not a metaphor. Currently living in an ex mental day care centre and I found a curious collection of informational photographs, crying out for a collage or two.  These pictures of plugs were my favourite. Plug Me In, Turn Me On BANNED After creating another masterpiece, the first person I had to tell was Facebook. It turns out that Facebook can’t handle a few pieces of paper stuck together, crafted simply with an eye for detail and glue. Facebook can handle the hideous sites devoted to woman’s breasts and arses and all manor of other shameful public shows and grotesque acts of the mor

Debut Contemporary: CON ARTIST: Crimes Against Artists Humanity

Image
Subtle There's  a man called Samir Ceric in a Gallery called Debut  Contemporary  on Westborne Grove that has bullied, manipulated and lied to thousands of young, naive and inexperienced artists. Playing on the fact they are desperate to make it in the art world.  Here’s some advice for free:  YOU CAN’T BUY YOUR WAY IN There is no short cut to fame and glory. You get it by hard work and hard work only and if you are willing to work hard YOU WILL SUCCEED. You don’t need to pay over 400 pounds a month (for min 3 months contract) for a mentoring scheme from a man with no background in art whatsoever… Astoundingly Samir Ceric had just been voted (AND WON) the Hospital Club’s 100 most influential people in the Art and Design category. "I CHOKED ON MY LOAD" Now let me give you some background on the winner: A serial and self-styled entrepreneur, with numerous failed/bankrupt business and absolutely no art qualifications at all. I was amazed

Like A Lamb to the Slaughter. Easter special.

Image
Like a Lamb to the Slaughter I had arranged for some people to come round. They just wanted to see what I got up to on my day off, take some picture ect.  I was planning on using a hare (it being Easter and all) but the only thing that was budging was a lamb.  I was planning on crucifying it before I knew about Gunther Von Hagens and his idea of taking a dead body to the Pope.  These baby lambs died of natural causes soon after birth.  Sinking feeling I decided not to wash the blood out. It's the harsh, stark  reminder of the brutality.  I then turned the spot light on and...
