The Vinyl Factory and Lazarides present new exhibition ‘BRUTAL’

Coinciding with Frieze Art Fair, The Vinyl Factory launches a dynamic creative space – 180 THE STRAND – on London’s River Thames. The space will work as an incubator to nurture emerging talent through various events and stands at the crossroads of Art, Fashion, Film, Music & Design.

Launching the space next week will be a collaboration with the one of the world’s most influential urban galleries, LAZARIDES. This exhibition will feature original artwork from sixteen artists, all of whom are responding to the theme ‘BRUTAL’.

Strictly for the brave and forward thinking ‘BRUTAL’ explores the brutality of the times we live in, covering an array of subjects from LA gang culture and handmade weapons, to social existence and chaotic battle scenes.

Described by Steve Lazarides as “a BRUTAL show in a beautiful building for brutal times”, this exhibition is designed to deliver no remorse.
