Oscar Murillo Lottery Party, South London Gallery, 18th October 2013

A collection of piñata balls hand-drawn by Murillo and friends for the Lottery Party held at the end of the South London Gallery's exhibition of Murillo's work. These balls were collected at the party. When Murillo was asked which ones were drawn by him he stated that the whole point was that they were drawn by him and his friends and one shouldn't differentiate between the authors. Photographic documentation of the event is also available.
