Vernissage print by Etienne Clement

Anything that involves toy figures and play-mobile-esque scenes has got to be good, and Vernissage by Etienne Clement from his 'Wendy's World' series does just this.

His complex photographic works are set on backdrops of photographs of buildings, landscapes or ruins which act as a stage for his collage of toy figures, miniature magazines and false modelled landscapes.

Each picture in the Wendy's World series features Wendy who is an artist, and in Vernissage she is at a private view at an exhibition of works from the Wendy's World Series.

This Lambda c-type print is sized at 30 x 40cm and is from an edition of 25, and costs £375.

DVD Review: Bailey on Warhol (1972)

According to the particularly straight-laced introduction, Bailey on Warhol is 'an attempt to capture the spirit of Warhol using some of the techniques he has pioneered and several stills of his most famous work.' Pretty good summing up I'd say of this 1972 made for ITV documentary.

Bailey on Warhol uses a slightly leftfield, slightly irritating format - acquaintances come and go, each with a tale, a party piece, an opinion or an anecdote, all cut up with some Warhol words from a Warhol clone under coloured light, not to mention an occasional glimpse of David Bailey himself. Yes, the words are often pretentious, usually sycophantic and now again, almost certainly an escalation of the truth for effect, but let's be honest, this is the art world. What do you expect?

Martin Parr signed poster from BALTIC

If you haven't been to see Parrworld at BALTIC what are you waiting for? They are currently presenting the only UK showing of the exhibition by influential photographer Martin Parr, and this is your chance to get hold of one of 50 signed exhibition posters.

The exhibition runs over two floors, one containing Luxury a collection of over 40 recent works by Parr, and the second floor is showing more than 150 prints from some of the world's most famous photographers and a range of objects from Parr's personal collection. It runs until the 17 January so you still have plenty of time to make a visit.

The poster has been produced to coincide with the exhibition and features some of the objects from Parr's collections, and is signed by the artist. At £15 that is much cheaper than the Objects Box which we featured recently. Get one while you can.

Objects Box by Martin Parr at the Rocket Gallery

The limited edition Objects Box from photographer Martin Parr is a curious combination that perfectly sums up his work.
