Last night saw the opening of the World AIDS Day exhibition The Optimist at the East Gallery, 214 Brick Lane, London.
A packed venue on a wet night saw conversations flow from the quality of art on display, the themes present within to the draw of three toned and semi-naked male models. Each with accurate interpretations of three of the selected artworks rendered upon their bodies, by world class make-up artists. MAC Cosmetics Charity AIDS Foundation was a co-sponsor of the event alongside Positive East whose intention was to raise awareness of the many social and health issues of HIV and hopefully raise money through the sales of original and a limited edition run of signed prints.
Show continues until the 6th December, go see!
Not one of the naked models.....
