Thanks to Natasha Marks for the write-up.

Relaunch Review

On Thursday 4th March 2010 at 6pm inside a disused shop unit in Newcastle (and in the virtual world of www dots all around the world) Kitch-en Gallery officially relaunched with a brand new line-up artists and a slick new website.

The doors opened and crowds of people flocked in to witness the specially curated exhibition of Limited Edition Prints, Originals and Vinyl Toys by the likes of Ben the Illustrator, Phlegm, Craww, Alexander James, Joel Millerchip, Matt JOnes aka Lunartik, Mr Arteest, Jessie Douglas, Tom Satchell, Myne, JamFactory, Creative Ginger, European Animal, Cloud Commission, Mobstr, Lunabee, Mr Guy, Malarky P, Amy Dover and more…

Deconstruction has begun

The deconstruction of our relaunch exhibition at 18-20 Ridley Place has begun.

Nearly all the work is now down, awaiting collection or to be stored for online sales.

It's always sad taking down an exhibition, especially one of such high calibre, I wish it could remain up permanently for all to see but as the saying goes, you close one door and open another... so now its time to say goodbye Newcastle (for now) and to look forward to London early winter for our next big show!

Although the exhibition itself is going and the doors will be locked, the window display will remain for the foreseeable future, so be sure to keep checking back here for updates on that as we'll be putting together a programme of exciting creative happenings to take place in the window over the coming months.

Preview night of our relaunch event

The preview night on Thursday 4th March was an amazing success, with over 300 people of all shapes, sizes and ages through the doors a good night was had by all.

Thanks to everyone that made it down on the night, we hope you all enjoyed it.

A full review along with all the photos and videos of the night will be posted up here very soon. We just need a couple of days to refresh ourselves after such a busy week.

In the meantime be sure to check out our facebook profile to see people's feedback and comments from the night.

Sune Live Artwork

Sune is working LIVE in our window display as I type.

If you're kicking around Newcastle and you want to see how the graff legend works pop down and gawp through the window. Bring a crowd and get a street party going as well if you want.

His work will remain on display in the window throughout our relaunch event. For those of you with the readies we have two exclusive pieces of work on canvas featuring in the exhibition too.

Kitch-en's Limited Edition Litho Prints

Check out our very special, limited edition A2 litho prints that accompany our relaunch exhibition. They'll be on sale for just £3 on the night and are all numbered and limited to 100.

For every exhibition we hold we will be producing a limited edition litho print/poster that will act as an affordable, collectable memory of the night. A bit like when you get a poster from a music gig etc. They will be strictly limited to 100 copies so don't miss out on kickstarting your collection, make sure you get down early to the Relaunch Event on Thursday 4th March, 6pm - 8.30pm, with only 100 available, at £3 they're an absolute bargain and when they're gone they're gone. 

Slideshow Teaser

We've put together a rather spiffing little (well it's quite long actually) video slideshow of our new line-up of artists featuring past and present work including stuff that will be featured in the exhibition and online.

It should help whet your appetites a little bit. The slideshow will be viewable in our window display on alternative evenings to Barry Self's projection.

Barry Self - A Retrospective

With help from Sandy at Ghetto Method, we've put together a fantastic collection of photos by Barry Self.

Barry is a North East photographer who relentlessly documented the hip hop & breakdancing scene here in Newcastle and beyond throughout his life. He sadly passed away at the New Year and now Kitch-en Gallery has the privilege of presenting his very fine collection of photos, many of them never seen before. RIP Barry, known by many, forgotten by none!

This video slideshow will be projected into our window display on alternate nights from 5 - 9pm over the next week or so so be sure to go and take a look. We'll also be featuring a number of Barry's photos in our relaunch exhibition so don't miss that either.
