I’m at Camden Market Friday, Saturday, Sunday 12pm – 4pm between March and November, unless the weather forecast is bad or I’m sick. I set up on Camden High Street, near the big bridge, on the smaller bridge that goes over the lock. Near Camden Lock Market. The same small bridge on Camden High Street that the town crier, Zombie the “Help a punk get drunk”, and the ice cream van often are. I give away my art to passers-by willing to do a one minute video interview. Original artworks, not prints. Here are the videos:
I’m known as The Camden Market Free Art Man but my real name is Edgeworth Johnstone. I also work under the aliases Heckel’s Horse Jr. and Jompiy and play in several bands. As well as giving my artwork away on the streets of Camden Market, I sell them on Etsy and Ebay. For my music, I have a fan club on Bandcamp. Full bio here.
My Camden Market art giveaways are a political protest against expensive art. From being exhibited in Tate Modern, and my work auctioned at Christie’s (page 36), I’m now giving my original paintings away to passers by on the the streets of Camden Market. Free art frees art.
