'Duck Man Making Sense of West London' - A Performance by Alex Mazitelli

One of our first Artist of the Week winners Alex Mazitelli, performed a fantastic piece at Salon Contemporary today.  Dressed as a very strange, avant-garde looking 'Duck Man', Mazitelli began by standing outside the gallery asking passers by to donate money for eggs.  An hour later, collecting a whopping £6, the artist stopped by Sainsbury's (with an interesting response!!) and made his purchase.  



Mazitelli then proceeded to make egg paintings in the window of the gallery, handing his work out to an intrigued audience watching outside!




Alex will be performing again at Salon Contemporary next Monday 22nd, from 12 - 4pm.  He'll also be walking the streets of West London, providing an exclusive tour of the First Wednesday venues on Wednesday 1st December!  Artist of the Week opening night AND a CRAZY tour from Alex Mazitelli as Duck Man.

DO NOT MISS THE EXCITEMENT!!!
