Download Art Is Everywhere: Vic Reeves
Jim's passion for art began in childhood, when his parents encourage him to paint, sculpt and enter competitions on the back of cereal boxes, which happily, he won.
As a teenager Jim studied at art collage and it was here that he discovered the performance art of Gilbert & George and Joseph Beuys, which inspired his early adventures in comedy and which has continued to inform his writing and performances throughout his career. Recently seen on your TV discussing the history of Video Art, Jim's own art work is exhibited up and down the country.
He is also an ambassador for the Turner Contemporary, home of our special Art is Everywhere show on Tuesday the 3rd of December.
