Logan's run?



Staying (more or less) on the recurrent theme of decadence this week, I feel it is time to celebrate one of our very own home-grown flamboyant purveyors of that genre, Mr Andrew Logan.

The man who was the creative influence on Derek Jarman, whose studios were the early home of Malcolm McLaren, Vivienne Westwood and the Sex Pistols, and creator of the hugely decadent Alternative Miss World, is also an accomplished artist in his own right.

Mr Logan has exhibited his sculptures and jewellery all over the world including in Saint Petersburg in Russia, in Beverly Hills and San Dieqo, in Oxford, in the V&A and in his own museum on the Welsh borders (the very first to a living artist), and even in Heathrow Airport!

Let us celebrate this true British eccentric genius with a little insight into "Loganland"...


And here is some (fuzzy) footage of the Alternative Miss World 2009 event:
