Stanley Donwood’s El Chupacabra, July – August, 2009

Stanley Donwood’s new show, El Chupacabra, opens July 10th at the Weapon of Choice Gallery in Bristol, England. In other words, anyone living in England who doesn’t go to this show is taking for granted the fact that they don’t have to buy a $1,000 plane ticket to get to Bristol.

Donwood says about the show:

There are thirteen Pandemons in the show called ‘el chupacabra’. Thirteen ghosts at the funeral. Thirteen spectres at the feast of the goat. Loitering on the blackened cliffs of free-market economics, cackling as they raise a glass to toast Milton Friedman, Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher and Augusto Pinochet. Gallons of paint I’ve poured over them to drown their snickering. But still they laugh.”
