Ealing Open to 21st June includes 'Fred The Shred'

The other day I visited the 8th Ealing Open at Pitzhanger Gallery Project (PM)  in Mattock Lane.
It might sound like a Golf competition but it's actually an exhibition  for artists  living, working or studying in the Ealing borough who are invited to submit a piece of artwork for display (it costs £10 to enter).

Local artists participate in this  large-scale exhibition, at West London’s PM art gallery. The Open this year included a thoroughly  eclectic mix of styles and media, from sculpture to textiles, there was  even a video.
Most  of the works are for saleranging from a nominal £25 to a rather stretching £10,000 (although I didn't manage to spot the £10,000 'My Darling' as being a stand out work by the Armenian artisit Artour Sarkissian Oshankantsi).

My personal favourite was Fred The Shred (it's not for sale) by Cherry Ehrlich
