Tomorrow's Guerilla Galleries show in Bristol, by gerry on Feb 27, 2008 22:21:52 GMT 1, Have done a search but can't find anything on here recently about the new Guerilla Galleries show in Bristol which opens tomorrow night. Maybe it's that spelling of guerilla!
Anyway, i got to go in for a sneak peek earlier today, and there's some really properly lovely stuff in there, Mr Jago, Dicy, Cheo, Andy Council, Inkie, Rowdy, 45rpm, Ghostboy, etc.
It's not going to appeal to those who only chase famous names, but if you buy art because you like it, and you know your bristol history beyond banksy, 3d and nick walker, then you totally must go.
Preview with pics of the works there on my blog - bristolgraffiti.wordpress.com/2008/02/27/sneak-preview-guerilla-galleries-new-show/

Tomorrow's Guerilla Galleries show in Bristol, by gerry on Feb 27, 2008 22:39:01 GMT 1, I know they're gonna be selling some of the stuff that hasn't yet sold from when it opened, and some of the stuff they've been given for sale since on their website soon, they were photographing stuff for it when i was there. There's some top stuff in that, couple of lovely inkies for a start.
The new stuff i think will just be in the store only, though may perhaps appear on the website too. Personally i suspect a lot of stuff will go tomorrow night. And i can't be there. Dammit!

Tomorrow's Guerilla Galleries show in Bristol, by gerry on Feb 27, 2008 23:06:17 GMT 1, Ah bless, ta all! I just enjoy writing it and sharing what there is out there, so always good to hear that people are reading it and liking it. Glad the photos were ok too, got myself a better camera for these things a couple of months ago (some of my first snaps were shocking!) but taking photos in the middle of a gallery being put up wasn't easy. Though i think the shot through the step ladder added a nice touch, even if it was inevitable!

Tomorrow's Guerilla Galleries show in Bristol, by gerry on Feb 27, 2008 23:25:36 GMT 1, Yeah, there are some prints that have been kicking around for a while now i think, as least since the 12 days show, lovely all the same, but think that's the only original at the moment...
