Inspired by a performance I saw at the ICA in London in 2005. Below is a description of the event taken from the promotional material for the performance.
The COSMIC WRESTLING MATCH between Adam Nankervis (as “The Ghost of Joseph Beuys”) versus David Medalla (as “The Spirit of Marcel Duchamp aka Rros Selavy”). The referee for this metaphorical wrestling match (a unique live event which will last several rounds) will be Guy Brett. The Gong Master will be Marko Stepanov. English artist James Moores will be the Bets Vetter aka The Bookie. The viola player will be Miles Christie. The seconds will be Dan Bourke, Gordon Johnstone and Tiago Slewinski. The ICA in London was the venue of a live event by Joseph Beuys, while the founders of the ICA (Sir Herbert Read and Roland Penrose) were personal friends of Marcel Duchamp. Nankervis and Medalla’s Wrestling Match will be their Double-Homage to those two Masters of Modern Art.

Let customers speak for us
Mythical being 5 is the fourth work of Gordon's that I've aquired, and as soon as I saw it on his website knew that it would perfectly finish a room project that I've been working on.
I find Gordon's use of colour sublime, and the subject here is framed by the blue of a sumner sky or sea as it falls backwards.
Is this a fall from height and grace like Icarus, or something forced backwards in defeat or ecstacy or both?
'Being at the edge of the city' is the third work that I've bought from Gordon.
I was looking for a large, abstract print for my living room but hadn't seen anything that resonated with me. Gordon's surreal, dreamlike 'Being' beautifully realised in flat colours grabbed my attention as soon as I saw it on his website. The physical print was a joy to behold and I saw details in it hadn't been obvious on my phone screen.
'Young man in the garden' is the second of Gordon's prints that I have bought and as a new collector of his work I was interested in a variety of his styles.
The block colours and line work give a wonderful sense of freedom and light; as the observer you have suddenly witnessed another person's moment of abandonment and joy.
As soon as I first saw 'Ginger boys with blue lupins' I was charmed by the sensitivity and sensuousness of Gordon's work. The composition and use of colour infuses a simple scene with a nostalgic longing. For me this image is much more than a decorative piece; it connects me to another man's vision.
I bought a signed print and the quality and colour reproduction is fantastic.
