Paul Kindersley : She wanted his soul, but...

3 Sep-27 Sep 2009

Overview

The Transition Gallery Prize is a contemporary art award that was set up this year. A solo exhibition at the gallery is awarded to a Chelsea BA graduate for outstanding work and Transition is pleased to announce that Paul Kindersley has won the inaugural show. She wanted his soul, but he could only give her his blood is a new work specially made for Transition. It references sexy 70s vampire movies in a form of shrine to stolen film memories and real life encounters with the cult Germen actor Udo Kier. In a charged environment formed from sounds, looks and props from Kier’s films the viewer becomes the vampire with the film as the ultimately doomed, but struggling to keep alive, victim.
