Black Rat Press • Black Rat Projects, by jellya on Aug 30, 2007 13:29:35 GMT 1, Me too. This is a great image. Hopefully there wont be a mass scramble for it and I can just pic one up at my leisure!!  There's never been any profit in Blek La Rats on the bay for the baggers, so even if we miss it, there's a good chance of getting one from a misguided bagger off ebay for cost or even less ;D
CBL's right. A Blek 'sheep' went last week on eBay for £161

The amount of ink used on the Blek screens has to cost more than that!

This is a pic of a canvas that Mike Snelle had for sale
Actually the longer I look at it, the more unsure I am about it, the hand and a foot doesn't look quite right, it all looks a little distorted and out of shape.
I wonder if the prints will be exactly the same or improved at all.

Black Rat Press • Black Rat Projects, by carlito on Sept 4, 2007 13:54:59 GMT 1, Hello and welcome to the Black Rat Reminder – an innovative idea designed to alert you to our official return tomorrow morning and crash our server. Here are a few things you need to know: • Life is not always easy. • We will be putting 2 new prints up online tomorrow morning. • You should probably rethink that yellow jumper you’re wearing. • The prints we’re putting up are Blek’s long awaited ‘David With Kalashnikoff’ , and Armsrock’s snappily titled ‘Hold what you can (because these are lost times)’ in two colourways, pale cream or green to go with your carpets and that Japanese Peace Lily in the corner. Also, we will be taking the remaining stock numbers off the site. This is not because we are dastardly beancounters in stovepipe hats and fingerless gloves coughing with TB and glee at the confusion we’re causing. It’s because we’ve noticed that a number of dastardly, pinched, whey-faced carpet bagging types (you know who you are) are putting prints in their baskets and then watching to see how quickly the numbers go down before choosing whether to bag themselves a carpet or not. Basically stopping anyone who really wants a D*Face from getting a D*Face. This change is for you. I have no idea why I’m mentioning carpets so much. Lastly but not least…ly. We will have a number of originals for sale. Logan Hicks wasn’t able to complete the Black Rat edition before jetting off to Norway on a steamboat, but will complete them on his return. In the meantime we have a couple of Logan pieces for sale while we stall for time, as well as some stunning pieces by the likes of Swoon, Armsrock and Matt Small. This was longer than I expected it to be. I probably need an editor. BRP Kind Regards The Black Rat Press Ltd

Black Rat Press • Black Rat Projects, by johnas on Sept 24, 2007 12:14:32 GMT 1, THIS IS THE NEWS
Because it’s a wet Monday afternoon (unless of course you’re in an area where it’s not a wet Monday afternoon – although, presumably, it is still a Monday afternoon) we thought we’d brighten your day, or at least distract you from you’re your day. Your day, that tarry, tepid coffee you’ve got sitting on your desk and the copy of Grazia you’re flicking through just because you found it next to the coffee and looking at Kate Moss wearing some dress is better than working.
So we bring you news of things. Good news. Items of interest. Salient facts. Art news as it happens and the fat level in a Cadbury’s Minstrel.
NEW ORIGINALS
We will be putting up new originals on our site tomorrow. The artists responsible for those new originals are such artists as Armsrock, Logan Hicks and Faile.
ARMSROCK: We have a number of new pieces from Germany’s finest Danish street artist and poster boy for, well, posters. They are on oddly-shaped, wonky, roughly-hewn wood and very cool.
LOGAN HICKS: We have several works by Logan including an exclusive Black Rat edition called Nerve System. Nerve System is not available anywhere else, because it’s exclusive. Oh and we should probably mention that it’s exclusive.
FAILE: There will also be some original works by Faile up too. We don’t work directly with Faile, but we, like everyone else (except Alistair Darling who hasn’t heard of them) are massive Faile fans and get a kick of just having these pieces around the office. So please don’t buy them.
VAGUE GALLERY AND EXHIBITION NEWS
We will be having our first exhibition next month in a stunning new 2000 square foot gallery deep in London’s trendy East London. More of that to follow, but basically we’re all very excited. It’s going to rock.
FAT LEVEL IN A CADBURY’S MINSTREL: 22.2g / 100g

The gallery is a beautiful converted railway arch on Rivington Street in Shoreditch (Thru Cargo Garden) and the preview evening will be on Thursday 25th October. Invites will sent out via email so if you would like to receive one please make sure you have added your details to our mailing list. You will need to print out the invite to gain entry to the show.
