Sickboy Solo Show "Burning Desire" LISBON, 3rd Feb, by sand on Jan 27, 2011 10:59:14 GMT 1, 
Yellow Pants Gallery is proud to present BURNING DESIRE, a solo exhibition of new work and site-specific installations by Sickboy, this February in Montana Shop & Gallery Lisbon, Portugal.
Sickboy is a well known London based street artist that got us used to strong visuals and bold messages, both in and out of gallery spaces.
He uses, in a convincing way, a surprising mix of two different kinds of artistic speech in his work: you might know him for his insanely detailed canvases or his bold statements and really graphic icons. But in case you just donโt know him at all (please do feel ashamed!) you should seriously think in passing by Montana Shop & Gallery Lisboa one of this daysโฆ What youโll see is what Sickboy does best: being himself in the middle of a crazy world that sometimes makes you want to enjoy the ride, and other times just makes you feel like screaming and telling everyone toโฆ well, you knowโฆ
His commercial work relies on prints, mixed media canvases and some amazing installations to set up the fantastic universe whereSickboy inhabits.
And thatโs why weโre so happy about bringing him to Lisbon, because this way heโll be able to share his amazingly colorful and passionate universe with a new and totally different audience! We think heโs happy to come too. At least heโll enjoy better weather than what heโs having in Londonโฆ
So, if youโre interested in getting a little bit of this show home, want a preview of the catalog, or you just need to get an answer, all you need to do is contact us: info@yellowpantsgallery.com
The exhibition opens on the 3rd of February 2011, and itโll stay until the 28th at Montana Shop & Gallery Lisboa.
About the Artist: A leading artist to emerge from Bristolโs infamous graffiti scene, Sickboyโs humorous work has cemented his place in the upper echelons of the British street art movement. He is one of the first UK artists to use a logo in place of a tag, and his red and yellow street logo known as โThe Templeโ can be seen on walls and wheelie bins worldwide. A long-serving artist with Pictures on Walls,Sickboy has built up one of the largest bodies of street art works in UK history and he is tipped by the leading financial press as one of the movementโs most investable and influential artists. His temples, slogans and street stunts โ including the caged heart installation dropped outside the Tate Modern in 2008 โ have landed him global recognition. www.thesickboy.com

Sickboy Solo Show "Burning Desire" LISBON, 3rd Feb, by sand on Feb 3, 2011 12:39:42 GMT 1, Sickboy on the cover of next VNA too.
Sounds great! ;D
I'm kind of disappointed by the lack of large scale canvas work in this show...it reminds me of the 'Logopop' shows. Lots of smaller, more affordable works. Nothing wrong with that of course, and i'm looking forward to seeing what the installation is.
I remember reading in a interview last year that Sickboy was planning a large London show with collaborative works with Eine, Paul Insect, DFace and more.
That was suppose to be in 2010...I wonder if that's now later on this year?
