BlackRatPress "WHITE NOISE" - 29th Nov, by edcase on Nov 28, 2008 23:28:10 GMT 1, Well, it was 90% sold out, I'm guessing a lot sold before the doors opened? The elbow toe from the flyer was the star piece for me, I'd have bought it in a second if it had been available. The Nick Walker canvas was sold at ยฃ12k, I'm a NW fan but did nothing for me.
Matt Small stuff was ace as usual, had a good chat with him about the show next year...it's going to be one to watch!!
Turnout was steady. Right, download finished let me just edit a few of these and get em online

BlackRatPress "WHITE NOISE" - 29th Nov, by robinbanks on Nov 28, 2008 23:33:25 GMT 1, Back from the show - good but not brilliant is my overall opinion. The Blek bored me to tears, D*Face looked like it was just left unsold from his solo show - nothing new. Cyclops was cool but don't think I'd like Winehouse staring back at me everyday. Elbowtoe was the star of the show in my opinion - really amazing work and very well priced I thought. Asha Zero did nothing for me but Matt Small continues to impress with his iconic style. I'm a big Walker fan and that is the only pic I took - really nice piece this and possibly now looking to explore new areas after the success of his infamous "Vandal".

Matt Small continues to paint beautiful portraits with such an intensity of soul.

BlackRatPress "WHITE NOISE" - 29th Nov, by Guest on Nov 29, 2008 1:03:52 GMT 1, great pics edcase. elbowtoe pieces were amazing, great detail and so beautiful. NW canvas was fantastic and maybe my favorite work. Matts work was his usual high quality, really looking forward to his solo show next year.. Most of the work was sold pre show. wont mention the Blek

BlackRatPress "WHITE NOISE" - 29th Nov, by Prescription Art on Nov 29, 2008 1:52:49 GMT 1, I'd be interested to know who the Elbow Toe portraits were of if anyone knows?
I know this one is Elbow-Toe himself
This is Cake (whose work was in my show last month)
This one is Luna (flickr photographer)
Photos: www.flickr.com/photos/edbartlett/
I'd imagine on that basis that all the other portraits were of people in the New York street art scene, but i'm none the wiser as to who they are.

BlackRatPress "WHITE NOISE" - 29th Nov, by Sacked... on Nov 29, 2008 2:09:54 GMT 1, Somebody told me that mike from BRP had brought the elbowtoe self portrait.Did'nt think much of the dface or the Blek !Cyclops was excellent and had a print for sale as predicted,very nice, an edition of 95.The qualty was fantastic .It's the best he has done IMHO.Bring on the solo show next year !!! Matt Small had a few pieces and a print edition of 100 it was great to meet the man again as Edcase says one to watch next year too.Most of the prices were good apart from dface and Blek.Hope this all makes sense as i'm tired and need to go to bed !

BlackRatPress "WHITE NOISE" - 29th Nov, by goaty on Nov 29, 2008 2:10:11 GMT 1, I while back I bought a canvas of Bleks and to see the direction his work is going is just so dissapointing. It makes me question why I bought his work in the first place. The Jonathan Levine work was soooo poor, I mean a Shell tanker? Then a very poor Obama canvas with no substance it seems as if he's just following crowd?!?
It's as if he has no artistic flair in the slightest and just tries to keep up with the scene by copying others.
Ohh well. I guess Picasso went through patches where his work dipped in form. Yeah, I compared Blek to Picasso.

I couldn't disagree more... I think they way he's simplified his stencil work, whereas everyone else is going the complex route... it's as if he's turning them into stamps... and I've seen a lot of negative posts towards his Obama stencil, but quite frnakly the expression on Obama's face in that piece speaks volumes compared to Shep Fairey's sub par one imho... Blek knows what he's doing so much more than most "Street Art" muppets... But I guess you can't please all the punters all the time.
