Thanks
The more detailed stencils are ok but I dunno, some of the other piece look very different in style. Some look so different like the stencils were cut by different people. Reminds me a bit of pieces by Grafter or SPQR in some ways.

Blek Le Rat London Show - 27th April, by aa on Apr 24, 2012 15:39:22 GMT 1, I really like the paint ball cop, but for some reason Zorro seems to be my favourite from the pdf.
I'm going to try and get down for the print, but there is no way I'm going to queue overnight. I'll get up and try the first train into town, and if it's too late, then tough.
Not wanting to be controversial, but why would you queue overnight, when you don't even know what the print will be?
I reckon it's going to be the Mona Lisa image as that's being used in all the publicity shots that I've seen so far.

Blek Le Rat London Show - 27th April, by twist65 on Apr 24, 2012 18:31:41 GMT 1, just looked at the catalogue for the first time and have to agree, some of them are pretty embarrassing really. Maybe the pdf doesn't do it justice but some of the backgrounds look really amateur, and "Graffiti - it's a fun crime!" - if Brainwash came up with that cringeworthy nugget people would be falling over themselves to slam it. Think Bleks another artists who's best days are behind him =\

Blek Le Rat London Show - 27th April, by aa on Apr 25, 2012 13:46:54 GMT 1, I've just walked past the gallery and most, if not all the pieces are there now. I went and had a very quick look around. The pieces are so much better than the pdf. And they're massive. Even if I could afford one, I don't think I've got a wall big enough for most of them.
Anyway, the main point of this, is a quick heads up to anyone in the west end today or tomorrow.
I asked about the print, but the guy there said that he didn't know what it would be.

Blek Le Rat London Show - 27th April, by boatyyy on Apr 25, 2012 21:44:05 GMT 1, thought this an interesting statement in that interview... "...You took the word โratโ as an anagram of the word โart,โ before stencilling the now-famous vermin on the streets and acknowledging that the rat โspreads the plague everywhere, just like street art.โ ..."
for some silly reason i only thought of the rat image as nocturnal as graf artists used to have to sneak out at night to get work up on the walls... but, i ain't that bright, once again confirmed!,
