"ON BLOOD",

2012-02-17T04:45:00.000-08:00

Blood thrills us. It arouses fear and repulsion. An emblem of love and violence. A symbol of both purity and horror. A universal sign of illness and death. Yet as the saying goes, ‘in blood is life’.

The Cob Gallery and Guts for Garters presents a body of work of by Peter Doherty executed in his own blood. This will mark the closure of Guts for Garters and The Cob Gallery’s previous collaborative show ‘Anatomy’. For more information about Guts for Garters, visit their website at www.gutsforgarters.com.

A London debut exhibition of the artist’s personal collection of ephemera and collectibles, co-curated with the artist, will provide the backdrop to Doherty’s archive and specially created new ‘blood’ paintings.

The show will cast new light on Doherty not only as a practicing artist, but as a collector of oddities. As an additional aspect of the show, objects collected and chosen by Doherty will be used to create a unique Gesamtkunstwerk – a Portrait of the Artist.

Original work and prints exclusive to the gallery and signed in the artist’s blood will be available throughout the exhibition. An online catalogue will be produced specifically for the exhibition and images, the work and installation shots will be available.

DOHERTY. FATHER OF CARLA BRUNI'S NEW BABY?

2011-11-18T06:12:00.000-08:00

THE BRITISH SINGER FLATLY DENIES BEING THE FATHER OF CARLA BRUNI'S NEW BABY.

ANY EXCUSE TO GO TO PARIS ...

2011-11-16T08:06:00.001-08:00

Yesterday's Sun newspaper (15th November 2011) announced that Peter Doherty has fled to Paris because, as "close pals" have revealed he has been visited at his London flat by the ghost of Amy Winehouse and that the artist is too terrified to remain there.

I was with Peter to bid him farewell on Sunday 6th November and helped him pack some personal possessions into the black Mercedes belonging to nutritionist Daisy Whitbread, he didn't mention anything about being haunted by Amy's ghost. If anything I would imagine that Peter would be delighted to have the chance to see Amy again in spectral form or otherwise.

He was deeply affected by the singer's death to whom he was very close and has expressed his grief and respects to fans, performing covers of her songs at his concerts.

Before he packed final items into the car taking him to Paris he performed a new song which he has written, beginning with the line " Amy won't be coming round tonight ..."- hardly the sentiment of a man expecting spectral visitations.

The song is still a work in progress and entitled simply "Amy" can be found on YouTube http://www.youtube.com/user/professorro?feature=mhee#p/u/0/lmiYoeEaqow

Peter told me that he had found a new appartment in Paris and that he intended to continue his work -recording voice-overs - on the film based on the novel "Confession d'un Enfant du Siecle" by romantic poet Alfred de Musset in which Peter plays the leading role, against co-star actress and singer Charlotte Gainsbourg.

The film will premiere at Cannes next Summer.

"ANY EXCUSE TO GO TO PARIS" is the title of a blood painting by Peter Doherty.
