Alice In Wonderland (1903)



A British silent film about the famous story by Lewis Carroll. Directed by  Cecil Hepworth and Percy Stow. Although the original film was partially destroyed, it was recently restored by the British Film Institute.

Michael Hussar

Michael Hussar's oil pantings are a trip to the dark side, dealing with themes such as love, hate, sin, redemption and death.

He personally describes his work as "a voyeristic snapshot of perceived humanity, complete with freaks and fakery; a gothic wonderland illuminating the grey area between truths and lies".

A selection of Polish and Czech posters from the 60's. Artistic posters with a combination of photography and collages were quite common during this era.

Nikki Salk and Amy Flurry are probably the only ones who can take a simple material such as paper and turn it to Haute Couture.
