October exhibition Outsider by Robert Gordon McHarg III pushing new boundaries!

R.G.McHarg III FRSA was born an outsider, a stuttering English Quebecker who moved to London in the early 80’s and never went to art school. McHarg’s first solo show was 25 years ago. Working in a variety of mediums his work is insightful, irreverent and humorous like the enormous wood cut outs “The Thing” and “St.George” a tribute to George Best, “HIM” a life size sculpture of Charles Saatchi, the Elvis Toilet, “Peace Off” lenticular artwork, Fuji Rocks, “Gonchans” inflatables and the “I shot Damien Hirst” portraits. His past achievements include:
SAND PAPER BLUES (1995-97) an art show with its own merchandising and soundtrack album of 36 original songs written for SPB by musicians including: Wayne Kramer, Joe Strummer, Maria McKee, Wilko Johnson and John Mayall.
ART-TUBE 01 (2001). McHarg’s brainchild is London’s first and only art exhibition on a working tube train. The work of 42 artists who each produced specially commissioned panels which were exhibited on an entire London Underground Piccadilly Line train. Artists included: Yoko Ono, John Cooper Clarke, Gavin Turk, Jamie Reid, Vivienne Westwood, John Dunbar.
