The fifth annual Frieze week exhibition from Plus Art Projects, and the inaugural exhibition at the Mayor's Parlour showcases bold and unconventional works by 67 artists, straight from the artists’ studios.

The Mayor’s Parlour is a new arts club situated in the 1930s old Bow Town Hall in East London. Established and converted to a high modern spec while reflecting the original interior of the Town Hall by the art fabricator Kerry Ryan. This elegant new curated exhibition venue opens with an immense and diverse exhibition curated by the renowned London based Plus Art Projects.

The exhibition includes a souvenir from the Chapman Brothers’ controversial Hell sculpture, neon artworks by Tracey Emin, Gavin Turk and David Batchelor, a myriad of paintings which range in subject and scale, amongst many other works. Art works are numbered, not conventionally listed; the viewer encounters ambitious, enticing and occasionally challenging artworks, directly, without influence of authorship. The wide range of content and making gives this exhibition a pinhole view of some of the most exciting and challenging contemporary art in London now.

Plus Art Projects is known for its cutting edge intuitive response to curatorial pluralism, across a wide range of mediums and diversity of views, which stand in relation to one single approach or method of interpretation. Diversity of methodology is stressed by the inclusion of over 60 established and emerging artists working in painting, sculpture, neon, photography, taxidermy, film, drawing, mixed media works and high end takes on appropriation.
