NEW YORK SHOW EXTENDED October 2008
The Outsiders 282 Bowery New York NY
Admission Free
**Now running till 26 October**
"A LONDON-BASED gallerist, who began his career at a car boot sale, has become the New York modern art world's latest sensation.
Steve Lazarides, who is agent to the guerilla artist Banksy and runs two galleries in the West End, opened his controversial show The Outsiders in a disused space in the Bowery in downtown Manhattan in late September.
It features artwork satirising American iconography, predominantly by British artists, including Jonathan Yeo, Anthony Micallef and Polly Morgan.
The exhibition was scheduled to last a fortnight but will now close on 31 October.
Twenty thousand people have been through its doors, making it the most popular modern art show in New York, eclipsing the likes of Gilbert and George whose career retrospective is at the Brooklyn Museum of Art..."
