Noel Fielding showcases new paintings at pop-up bar in Covent Garden.
Mighty Boosh and Never Mind the Buzzcocks star Noel Fielding becomes the latest celebrity to showcase their work as an artist, by launching a pop-up exhibition and cocktail bar in Covent Garden. The venture – in association with Vestal Vodka – sees a snazzy new cocktail bar in St Martin's Courtyard decorated throughout with Fielding's own typically frenetic and bizarre brand of figurative painting.
The catchily entitled Vestal Vodka Pop-Up Salon and Gallery is the brainchild of Will Borrell (brother of Razorlight's once ubiquitous Johnny) and is open until 7th August, serving all manner of Vestal Vodka-infused drinks and even hosting regular cocktail masterclasses.
Fielding joins the likes of Pete Doherty, Anthony Hopkins, Bob Dylan, Sylvester Stallone and Josh Hartnett as celebrities who have all come out as artists (of varying talents) in recent years.
