Le Gun are the artists Neal Fox, Robert Rubbish, Stephanie Von Reiswitz, Chris Bianchi.LE GUN was founded in 2003 by a group of MA graduates from the Communication Art and Design course at the Royal College of Art, London. Also, LE GUN is an independent narrative illustration publication and provides a common ground for both emerging and established artists, illustrators, writers and poets. The Black Squid (Le Calmar Noir) were a group of surrealist artists based in Paris who broke off from the core group of the surrealists in 1924 in disagreement with André Breton's manifesto and their continued use of colour. François Lardon, Thomas Le Turk, Olga Tiktokova, Diego Mangina, and Éduard Lezard were talented artists but little known outside their small bohemian circle and have since faded into the margins of art history. The group believed that dreams were always in black and white, and that the exclusive use of black and white in art would make the everyday into a dreamscape. They claimed they had simultaneously dreamed of a giant black squid who imparted their manifesto. Apart from exploring the squid as a dream symbol for latent sexual desires, they revered black ink as a liquid of creation. Not long after the split, on September 25th 1925, the five artists held a black and white banquet, the exact motivations behind which remain unclear. They consumed a sumptuous meal and varied drinks, and strange sounds were reported to have emanated from the room. All five artists left the banquet intact and went their separate ways, but catastrophically all five found their demise in various ways the very same night. The debris of the mysterious final dinner was documented in minute detail. No poison was found, or evidence of a suicide pact, and hypothesizing about what actually happened that night was for a while a popular pastime in fashionable salons. Soon however the whole event faded into oblivion. The original document detailing the exact layout of the room & the objects within it still exists. As a group of artists working in black and white, LE GUN feel a strong connection to the Black Squid group and were particularly intrigued by this age old mystery. As well as reproducing large scaleportraits of the Black Squid's elusive members, based on the group's original 'exquisite corpse' drawings, LE GUN has attempted to recreate the final supper before the catastrophe, which will be shown alongside the Black Squid's last known surviving painting. Besides having collective exhibitions, performances and the self-titled Magazine, Le Gun have produced large-scale communally executed drawings in London, opened a curiosity shop, cooperated with Paul Smith for a clothing line, produced a music clip for Pete Doherty's Babyshambles and recently did an impromptu window display/exhibition, talk,etc at Arrtco Collection in Beijing, China. http://www.ourbarebones.co.uk/Thee-Marquis-of-Nowhere http://www.ourbarebones.co.uk/following/ourbarebones.co.uk/Thee-Marquis-of-Nowhere Tue, 08 Nov 2011 14:28:57 +0000 Bare Bones 2272183 <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/2272183/THE WORST NIGHT SPRD.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="473" width_o="2048" height_o="1448" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/2272183/THE WORST NIGHT SPRD_o.jpg" align="left" /> Thee Marquis of Nowhere is a writer and musician based in London.

Studied at New York University, NYC, 
and completed a degree in psychology, then worked in Bellevue Hospital/NYU Medical Center, 
conducting psychopharmacology research on the acutely psychotic...and then...well... then, traveled 
for a year, freaked out, grew some hair, long hair, had a very significant over-nite train ride from Amsterdam to Munich,
looked out the window to a full moon, slept with one eye open, flirted some more with Europe, moved back to the 
US .o.f. A, lived in a roadside motel in 'up-state' New York, countryville, paid 7 dollars daily, hung out with "old" people, took long walks, took some pics of nature, broke into houses, took some more pics, moved to Athens to live the dream, 
moved out of Athens to live the dream, re-landed in London, and has since been living there for the past 4 years 
developing his signature photographic and video style.
Believes in digital but thinks film, and says the people I shoot are like me. His most current project is SoftRock, a series of 5 to 8 minute short films, that premiered in October of 2011, at the George Pompidou Centre, as part of ASVOFF. The SoftRock series, is an exercise in the photogenics of sex, exploring the power within the act (both social and  aesthetic). The films have all the predictable pleasures of porn and pop and fashion: processed, repetitive, manufactured visual thrills intended for rapid and casual consumption. The film pieces are a progression, a smooth yet dangerous stumble, into a world of timid abandon, trance, romantic love and S/M. Like all good stories, the ritual of relationships is presented. But these relationships grow through increasingly ominous and chaotic sexual encounters.  Pain is a constant threat, but it will always be offered to the viewer as decorative and fashionable entertainment, shamelessly pleasing to the eye. www.socratesmitsios.com/ www.socratesmitsios.com http://www.ourbarebones.co.uk/John-Slade http://www.ourbarebones.co.uk/following/ourbarebones.co.uk/John-Slade Mon, 29 Aug 2011 13:33:15 +0000 Bare Bones 1924581 <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/1924581/two.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="451" width_o="833" height_o="561" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/1924581/two_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/1924581/five.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="451" width_o="833" height_o="561" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/1924581/five_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/1924581/four.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="451" width_o="833" height_o="561" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/1924581/four_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/1924581/one.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="451" width_o="833" height_o="561" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/1924581/one_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/1924581/three.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="451" width_o="833" height_o="561" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/1924581/three_o.jpg" align="left" /> John Slade http://www.john-slade.co.uk/ http://letsbringthedeadindoors.blogspot.com/ http://www.ourbarebones.co.uk/John-Paul-Prior http://www.ourbarebones.co.uk/following/ourbarebones.co.uk/John-Paul-Prior Mon, 29 Aug 2011 13:27:11 +0000 Bare Bones 1924535 John Paul Prior GENERATION OS13: THE NEW RESISTANCE CULTURE [click to open in new window] SPECTACLES [click to open in new window] The celebrated artist Wolfe von Lenkiewicz talks to John-Paul Pryor about the dark heart of his visceral debut novel http://www.ourbarebones.co.uk/Hal-Shinnie http://www.ourbarebones.co.uk/following/ourbarebones.co.uk/Hal-Shinnie Mon, 29 Aug 2011 13:14:21 +0000 Bare Bones 1924508 <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/1924508/ALAN KITCHING-1.jpg" border="0" width="483" height="670" width_o="483" height_o="670" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/1924508/ALAN KITCHING-1_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/1924508/chloe-holkham.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="432" width_o="900" height_o="581" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/1924508/chloe-holkham_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/1924508/JasonColour.jpg" border="0" width="543" height="670" width_o="543" height_o="670" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/1924508/JasonColour_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/1924508/KATE.L.S.jpg" border="0" width="564" height="670" width_o="564" height_o="670" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/1924508/KATE.L.S_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/1924508/Timo-IamoGardin.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="484" width_o="900" height_o="651" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/4/137530/1924508/Timo-IamoGardin_o.jpg" align="left" /> Hal Shinnie Having graduated from Cheltenham & Gloucester Collage of Higher education, with a B.A Honours degree in Photography, Hal has worked as an assistant to many leading international photographers.
