The latest work of shred artists Ben Allen, Will Barras, Pete Fowler, French, Michael C. Hsiung, Tim Karpinski, Phil Morgan, Schoph, Corey Smith and Owen Tozer will be featured at the 71a Gallery in London’s Shoreditch in a show titled, Looking Sideways London April 26-28, 2013.
“I wasn’t gonna show in the UK for a couple of years”, says Schoph. “But the opportunity to exhibit at a show where all the artists still shred, surf or skate makes sense. The line up is brilliant as well, with such a diverse range of styles. They’re all great artists with their individual deal going off. Standard”.
But if you can’t be in London next week, now worries. Prints of all the art in the show are now up and for sale on Looking Sideways newly relaunched online storefront. The 71a Gallery is located at 71a Leonard St. in London. The show is open from 12 to 6 PM each day, but the new website is open 24-7, of course. For the official word from We Are Lookings Sideways, follow the jump.

#LookingSidewaysLondon
After successful shows in Austria, France and Cornwall, we’re bringing it back home with our first show of 2013 at the 71a Gallery in London’s Shoreditch.
#LookingSidewaysLondon will feature unique work from ten innovative artistic talents: Ben Allen, Will Barras, Pete Fowler, French, Michael C. Hsiung, Tim Karpinski, Phil Morgan, Schoph, Corey Smith and Owen Tozer.
Visitors to the show will also have the chance to buy original works, high quality screen prints and very limited edition archival art prints of the unique pieces the ten artists are creating for the show.
“I wasn’t gonna show in the UK for a couple of years”, says Schoph. “But the opportunity to exhibit at a show where all the artists still shred, surf or skate makes sense. The line up is brilliant as well, with such a diverse range of styles. They’re all great artists with their individual deal going off. Standard”.
New Looking Sideways Website Launching at the end of April
The London show will also mark the launch of the new Looking Sideways website, with visitors to the site now able to buy unique original work and prints from featured LS artists at the new http://shop.wearelookingsideways.com/ site.
“Looking Sideways is all about bridging the gap between boardsports and art, and we reckon our new show and site are going to enable us to do that in the slickest possible way, and give people the chance to own some amazing art“ says Looking Sideway’s director Chris Moran.
The site also features in-depth profiles of LS artists and their work, bespoke LS content, and details of forthcoming LS events. To find out more about the show, buy new work or find out more about the Looking Sideways project, check out www.wearelookingsideways.com
