Transformers: portraits by Sadie Lee<\/code>
\nart@ketchum pleon proudly presents \u2018Transformers\u2019, a series of powerful portraits by award-winning artist Sadie Lee<\/a> [UK]. The exhibition features work from two of her recent shows: \u2018And then He was a She – Paintings of Holly Woodlawn\u2019, and \u2018Pin Ups\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u2018And then He was a She – Paintings of Holly Woodlawn\u2019 is a series of large-scale oil paintings of Holly Woodlawn, legendary Warhol Superstar drag queen and star of the Warhol films \u2018Trash\u2019 and \u2018Women in Revolt\u2019. Holly is perhaps best known as the character in the first verse of Lou Reed\u2019s iconic hit \u2018Walk on the Wild Side\u2019. Funded by Arts Council England, The Drill Hall, London, queerupnorth and Salford City Council, and supported by Homotopia, the show premiered in Salford, then travelled to the Novas Gallery, Liverpool, The Drill Hall, London and was shown in Berlin at the Schwules Museum in 2010.<\/p>\n

\u2018Pin Ups\u2019 was first shown in 2011 in Liverpool as part of Homotopia\u2019s annual arts festival. The collection of portraits is an homage to some of Lee\u2019s favourite underground icons. These include legendary artist\/performance artist David Hoyle; revered actress Rita Tushingham; promoter and photographer Stav Bee; figurative painter Matthew Stradling; artists\u2019 model Frank Sweet and professional pin up Anderrida Shurville.<\/p>\n

Original paintings and limited edition giclee prints will be available to buy throughout the exhibition, which runs from 27 Aug – 19 Oct 2012<\/p>\n
