Just seen this on the Sartorial website. I know its 5 months away but was wondering if this is going to be his first solo show.

Loved the collab with Dora at Mutate:

Pm me if you have any Rowdy cityscape canvasses for sale / trade.

I've seen the one at Dreweatts and know some have been in there previously.

ROWDY - NEVER SMILE AT A CROCODILE

June 4 - 27 2009, Private View Wed June 3 6:30 – 10pm

SARTORIAL CONTEMPORARY ART
26 Argyle Square London WC1H 8AP



In his first major London solo show the King of Crocs showcases his diverse talent at Sartorial Contemporary Art. Continuing the narrative of City versus The Ancient, Rowdy’s trademark crocodiles are often huge in scale and are indicative of the playful nature of the imagery in his work. The last few years have seen him collaborate with cohorts Cyclops & Sweet Toof resulting in one of the most widespread bombing campaigns seen in the UK’s capital in the last decade. Expect to see Rowdy’s unique take on urban living and landscape in the form of his legendary boulders, abstract cityscapes and of course the ubiquitous crocs.

Well worth a look.

Yeah, really nice stuff ;D

A few of those would make really nice prints. Rowdy Originals are a tad expensive so a print release would be good to get people on the ladder.

Sounds good. I wants me a croc.

Very cool.

I want to but i cant trust myself not to buy.Will you take some pics Tooth ? Have a great time and say hello to the Guys there.

Thanks for the pics and text rattusamorus .it was great to see and read and to view the other shows again.
Were there a lot of people there and loads of red dots and did the Burning Candy crew turn up ? ?

So, there are plenty of charity events, plenty of causes worth fighting for, whole countries at war.... But sometimes it’s just about helping your friends, helping those you love. And here we’re taking the opportunity to help one of our best friends.

If you don’t know, here’s the introduction. Rowdy is one of the longest standing players in UK graffiti, supporting the scene and playing his part in what has now turned into a global phenomenon. He has painted with the best of them, in fact is one of the best of them, always sticking true to his vision, rocking his own style, never selling out his ideas. Recently he walked out of his house, which also served as his studio and when he returned a half hour later, everything had been burned to the ground. EVERYTHING! ID, money, clothes, personal possessions, art, the ability to make art, everything gone!

So, we’re taking this as an opportunity to support someone who has so readily supported us as a scene by auctioning some art to help him get back to a position where he can do what he does best, making art.

It’s a testament to his popularity and reputation that so many artists have donated work to this auction. All work has been personally donated by the artists and the galleries that represent them: Banksy, Paul Insect, Swoon, Sickboy, Hush, Espo, the whole Burning Candy crew and a whole bunch more... So, it’s your chance to buy something beautiful and at the same time help out someone who has helped in his way to make graffiti and street art what it is today.

We have been fortunate to have been given a one off print by Banksy, unseen as yet, amongst many other amazing originals and prints. Please keep checking back for more details.

Thanks,
SFW

Great news for a great cause..... look forward to seeing the work
