CURRENT PROJECT 
ANTICIPATION Selfridges continues its arts season at the Ultralounge with ANTICIPATION, an exhibition of the best of London's art schools graduates, in collaboration with contemporary art curators Kay Saatchi and Catriona Warren. Both curators have been allowed unique access over several years to visit the studios of artists before their degree shows in all the London art schools and have developed a comprehensive expertise in spotting the next generation of talent. ANTICIPATION at Selfridges is the second instalment of the celebrated exhibition staged in May 2007, now moving on to the Ultralounge, London's most innovative new exhibition venue. This year the artists will benefit from the larger space and be able to show their work in greater depth. They will have a wider exposure to an audience beyond the art world. The Ultralounge will function like an 'art gallery' with visitors having the opportunity to meet the artists, the curators and learn more about contemporary art. The art in the exhibition will be for sale, with Selfridges supporting the artists by giving them 100% of the proceeds. Last year ANTICIPATION generated over £100,000 in sales. "This philanthropic show was created to provide a platform from which new talent can be launched to a larger audience, so Catriona and I are delighted that we are able to work in partnership with Selfridges in an expanded exhibition" says Kay Saatchi. As two of London's most respected talent-finders and curators, Kay Saatchi and Catriona Warren have worked closely with London's art schools including Camberwell College of Arts, Chelsea School of Art, Central St. Martin's, City and Guilds, Goldsmiths, London College of Communication, Royal Academy Schools, Royal College of Art, Slade and Wimbledon searching for those young artists they feel have the creative and intellectual stature to continue making thought-provoking work for years to come. They are some 20 artists due to feature in the show. Highlights will include Jeni Snell's inflatable bouncy castle bunker, a statement about how children growing up in war zones play amongst the ruins of war. Nick Hornby's sculpture of a life size slice of a 727 will intrigue. Jodie Carey's majestic 10 foot 'Monument' is made of 2,000 cast plaster bones. In last year's exhibition, she stood out with her now famous Chandeliers made from vacuum cleaner dust. Philip Caramazza makes grand statements in small scale works. He will have a bijou museum filled with 60 post-card size paintings of the great works of art history from Velasquez to Richter. Svein Moxvold's 18 foot all-black Union Jack was made as a sign of mourning in response to Britain's involvement in the Iraq War. Alex Hoda's dark sculptural wall pieces are made from rubber, latex and foam. Rita Soromenho's photographs are records of her walks through the wasteland of London whilst Jo Longhurst's compelling photographs explore the intimate relationships between man and dog.
