"The appearance last week of a controversial new stencil in Paris has brought even more press attention to the work of artist Nick Walker. Le Corancan is his humourous reaction to the divisive plan by French President Nicolas Sarkosy to ban the Burka. Click here to have a look.

Bristol legend Nick Walker has become one of the most famous and collectable artists from the graffiti scene. One of his most iconic images is of his Vandal character. The bowler-hatted figure leads a double life - office worker by day and paint pot wielding menace by night.

Perhaps the most collectable of Nick's prints are those from his 'Morning After' series. In them you see the Vandal admiring his nocturnal achievements, on his way in to work. The series features cityscapes from around the world and includes London, Bristol, Sydney, Hollywood and New York. He recently released the final instalment - Morning After Moscow. It is normal for fans of his work to camp out overnight to be sure of getting his latest offering. This time demand was so great that a lottery system had to be used, as the number of applicants so far outnumbered the 150 prints available from the edition."
