Just over a year ago, in April 2009 members of The Friends committee attended the ‘Crimes of Passion’ Exhibition at the RWA.  Many of the ‘Street Art’ works on show were very impressive, and The Friends ended up paying towards three of them for the Bristol Museum and Art Gallery

One that caught the eye was called ‘Concrete Form’ but it had already been sold.  Not to be fazed by that, the artist, street-name Ziml, was commissioned by The Friends to paint another version,’Concrete Form II’ the one now shown.

It is quite a large work but is not yet on display.  In due course it will be seen in the Modern British Art Gallery.

The cost of the work, £600, was paid by The Friends in full.
