Welcome to Bunny Contemporary: A New Era for East London’s Art Scene
After years of being the creative home and name sake of artist Pure Evil, we’re excited to announce the rebirth of the gallery with a bold new identity: Bunny Contemporary. This rebrand marks a monumental moment in the history of the space, as we step into a fresh chapter—one that honours our roots while embracing the future.
Pure Evil Gallery has long been a cornerstone of East London’s vibrant art scene, a place where art and culture collided, and where the work of Pure Evil himself took center stage. But as the art world continues to evolve, so must we. Bunny Contemporary represents a new vision—one that is dedicated to supporting the next generation of contemporary artists and fostering an inclusive environment where creativity and innovation can thrive.
While we celebrate the gallery’s history, we are shifting focus toward a broader spectrum of voices and perspectives, highlighting new, emerging artists who are shaping the future of contemporary art. We’re committed to creating a space that challenges, inspires, and opens the door for new talent to shine. The name may have changed, but the heart of our mission remains the same: to provide a platform for bold and original art, and to continue being a hub for those who seek to push boundaries.
The Upcoming Shows at Bunny Contemporary
To mark this exciting new chapter, we’re kicking off the year with three dynamic and carefully curated exhibitions that celebrate both the past and the future. Each show will bring something unique to the table, and we can’t wait to share it with you. Here’s a preview of what to expect:
Turn And Face The Strange: A Landmark Group Show
To kick off the new era, our first show at Bunny Contemporary is Turn And Face The Strange, a group exhibition that brings together a diverse range of artists whose work defines our new direction. This show marks a pivotal moment in our rebranding, showcasing cutting-edge pieces that reflect the gallery’s renewed commitment to the future of contemporary art.
The artists in this show are at the forefront of a new wave of creative expression—unafraid to challenge norms and explore the unknown. As we turn away from the past and face forward into new territory, this exhibition encapsulates everything Bunny Contemporary stands for: bold, forward-thinking art that speaks to the complexities of the modern world.
Join us for this exciting group show.
The Christmas Art Fair: Affordable Art for the Holiday Season
With the holiday season fast approaching, we’re starting the festivities early with our Christmas Art Fair. This special exhibition is designed to make art more accessible to everyone—perfect for those looking for unique and affordable gifts. Whether you’re shopping for a loved one or simply treating yourself, this show will feature a diverse selection of works from multiple artists, offering everything from small prints to affordable paintings and limited edition pieces.
We’ll also be running a Christmas Art Print Lucky Dip, where visitors can take part throughout the event for a chance to win original art prints. The opening night will feature mulled wine, festive cheer, and of course, the exciting Lucky Dip. It’s the perfect way to celebrate the season and discover new artists at affordable prices. This is our way of making art more inclusive and fun—because everyone deserves to experience the joy of owning original artwork.
Pure Evil Returns: A New Solo Show
To kick off the new year, we’re bringing back a familiar face—but with a twist. Pure Evil will return for an incredible new solo show, featuring bold new works and stories that have yet to be told. This is more than just an exhibition; it’s a statement that honours the gallery’s history while embracing the future.
Details are still to be announced, but rest assured, this will be a show you won’t want to miss. Expect exciting new work, surprising themes, and a celebration of the art that’s defined Pure Evil’s career.
Keep an eye out for further announcements as we prepare to start the year with a bang.

We’re embracing change while still holding onto the spirit of what made Pure Evil Gallery so special. Bunny Contemporary is excited to continue its legacy of supporting original and bold creative voices.
