James Howard - AUTHORIZED

James Howard 

has had a run of success since graduating from the Royal Academy Schools. It is no surprise to me that Charles Saatchi bought his entire degree show, an exhibition of satirical but playful digital prints.

His recent solo exhibition at the Aubin Gallery continues to explore the same themes - vinyl banners and video works that at a glance seem to be the type of pop-up advert we may encounter on the internet. Adverts that use cheap tricks, bright colors and plays on words hooking the audience in. Upon closer inspection it soon becomes apparent that these are a mockery, the 'products' for sale, that promise to offer better health, wealth, or peace of mind in fact probe fun at our search for a more full filled existence.





AUTHORIZED runs from 28th April - 26th May at the Aubin Gallery (64-66 Redchurch St).
