Kinder Challenge
That Friday Feeling
In an attempt to re-live that 'bring in your toy' to school before your holidays start we're having a little easter gambling fun over at SHOWstudio
Hello
Paul Bruty, Dorian and myself often like to play a game we have called the 'Kinder egg challenge'. One of us goes round to the newsagent and buys four kinder eggs. We then choose an egg each and make whatever toy is inside. The toys are then anonymously placed in the kitchen and we put a pound by our own toy. We then ask a guest judge (a member of SHOWstudio) to go in and order them from best to worst. The person whose toy is judged to be the best wins all the money (£3!) and the judge recieves the fourth egg for their efforts.
Anyway, it seems Danny was quite amused by this and has sent a basket of Kinder eggs to the studio to say happy Easter. So we have decided to hold a studio-wide Kinder challenge with YOU as the judge. There is £8 at stake for the lucky winner, so choose wisely.
Results, and a more professional demeanour, will follow after the weekend.

Hi, I am pleased to hear of your enthusiasm for the mighty Kinder Egg.. I am also a big fan and have recently opened an exhibition at The Print house, 18 Ashwin st. Dalston London E8. The installation is homage to Kinder. A 22ftx14ft volcano emerges through the floorboards with a giant spinning kinder egg on top, there are over 1000 toys invoved some of which move mechanically, a smoke machine, waterfalls and more. I have organised the space/exhibit myself and I'm hoping to involve a gallery with the view to showing in their space by the 18th of June. I would be very pleased if you could as fellow appreiciators of Kinder visit the piece and possibly give any information regarding its next move. Photographs of the piece in its last studio can be viewed at the website listed above. Kind regards, Duncan Mckellar
