Fred Lindberg started THE (deviant) ART FESTIVAL as a society and network of contemporary artists in London 2005. The thought behind these art events was to put people and ideas together rather than single pieces of art. To create a foundation for collaborations. In 1937 Hitler exhibited “Entartete Kunst”, 1962 came Fluxus events like “The Festival of Misfits” and today our Art is striving to exist in-between being singled out as a degenerate, or choosing to be a misfit.

Frog Morris is an poet and performance artist from England. In July 2006 Frog Morris hosted an evening of performance poetry in Trollhattan, Sweeden, for the (deviant) Art Festival. Frog Morris worked with Swedish poet Johan Lindblom in an attempt to translate lyrics and perform poetry in a mix of English and Swedish. Other performers and artists at the festival also attempted to write and perform poetry in mix of English and Swedish, including Charlotte Young and John Kline. Here are some video highlights...

Arboreal
5 May – 3 June 2007
Private View – Friday 4 May 6.30-9pm
First Thursday Late Night Preview - Thursday 3 May 6-9pm
Arboreal: to dwell in or frequent the woods.
Arboreal explores man’s interaction with the world and with one another, taking in consumerism, perceived social status, abuse, relationships and apocalyptic times. Humans are absent, their presence embossed through the use of structures, materials and the juxtaposition of the organic and synthetic.
Arboreal is not only concerned with the physicality and strength of the organic form but also how it can represent a deconstruction of the mind, a direct contrast when laid next to the formalities of the manmade world.
Lee Maelzer’s paintings explore contrasting representations of the apocalyptic sublime and the ordinary. They are filled with portent; describing with a certain amount of tenderness the fine line between everyday life and the end of the world.
Opening times: Fri – Sun 12-6pm
