I’m always on the lookout for hot and happening events and parties… and it’s still only January! This month we’re mourning the sad demise of David Bowie who I think it’s true to say has left a legacy of self-expression still referenced today. The art of dressing and self-expression, gender fluidity and music continues to live on in the spirit Bowie set the cornerstones for.
Fancy something a bit abstract? I stumbled across this happening; Release Zweikommasieben Magazine #12 with Dale Cornish, SSSS, Mumdance & Logos. Intrigued? Well pop along to Cafe Otto up in Dalston on Thursday 21st for a night of revelation and the latest issue of a Swiss mag dedicated to the documentation of club culture since 2011. 8 till late!
