Last week, global street art collective
Monorex joined forces with
Courvoisier for a unique display of live art at
The Future Gallery.
Courvoisier invited international, innovative street art collective
Monorex to join them for the
Courvoisier Revolutionary Spirit 2010; two weeks of July, packed full with interactive events involving Courvoisier's hand picked
Future 500 members, from artists, chefs, editors and forward thinking creatives. We'd already sampled the unusual culinary delights at
The Complete History of Food as part of the two week festival. Next on the menu was a healthy dollop of or two of paint, courtesy of
Monorex.
We're more than accustomed to seeing street art by Monorex appear overnight on east London's
Village Underground walls and the likes of
Jimi Crayon scaling the city's buildings armed with more spray paint than troop of vandals. But, last week Courvoisier hosted
Mono Brow, which saw Monorex exhibiting in a more unconventional setting.
Tucked away in London's West End,
The Future Gallery was a hidden hive of artistic activity as seven of the Monorex collective transformed the gallery from sterile white walls to a mind-blowing mural adorned gallery!
After two days of being open with the public free to view the freestyle transformation by
Wen,
Stika,
Disco Teck,
CHU,
Mr Gauky,
Alfa and
Jimi Crayon, the event ended with a Courvoisier powered private view, with selected limited edition screen prints by Monorex available for sale. All proceeds went to charity, with
Eliza Doolittle proving very philanthropic on the night, snapping up most of the pieces for herself!
All in all, another incredible event by
Courvoisier and their
Future 500.
