The excellent work of former Great Westerner Justin Hibbs, has been shortlisted for the Jerwood Drawing Prize.

Painter Estelle Thompson has been asked to participate in Richard Bevan's new project 'A is not equal to A' at the Quare space in East London. The show is a part of an ‘anti-project’ called missingshow.com. He invited a dozen artists to take picture of his show – what the show consists of has not been disclosed. All the artists have a relationship to the work that will be shown and/or to the process of it being photographed. A selection of the images they take will be shown – as an ‘anti-show’ - at Quare between the 11th and 17th of October.

Costume Boutique, the truly boutique costume hire service, were invited once again to take part in Covent Garden's annual Fashion Fete which occurs in conjunction with London Fashion Week. It is a tongue-in-cheek version of a typical village fete, featuring activities such as Hunter Welly Wanging. This year's theme was modern-retro with an 80’s twist. Costume Boutique provided a dressing up area and style guidance for people to transform themselves into 80s icons. These lovely girls won the Most Stylishly 80s Award!

Tamar Zaig, costume designer and the artist behind Costume Boutique, has also recently worked as Costume Designer on the new commercial for Dell now being shown on Channel 4.
