Originally seen at the Nuart festival in Norway, Nick Walker has re-created his ‘Coat Of Arms’ piece for the viewing pleasure of his local brethren in Bristol. The piece is situated on the side of Vicenzo’s Pizza on Park Street.
After the jump check the piece out in context.
Apparently there’s a few of these available for collection from the POW headquarters, so if you missed ‘em and are in the area be sure to swing by. They’re not going to be advertised on the site but while stocks last they can be picked up in person for the same price they were released (£95). Appointments can be made by emailing POW here.
After four successful years in the pleasant surroundings of Notting Hill, Sartorial Art are moving on to bigger (literally) and better things. Choosing to throw their proverbial hats down slap bang in the middle of Kings Cross’ emerging art scene, the team are continuing in their forward-thinking direction.
Kicking things off in the spanking new 6000 foot space with a double exhibition, one of which will be Burning Candy, featuring the inescapable talents of the Before Chrome boys, Sweet Toof and Cyclops, plus Tek 33. The shows will run from October 15 – November 11, with the private view on October 15 from 5 – 11pm.
Accompanying Burning Candy is a book of the boys’ exploits over the years, rich with photography and interesting commentary, it’s a very good read. Sweet Toof, Cyclops and Tek 33 have kindly signed 10 copies for us, if you’d like one drop us an email to competitions@ukstreetart.co.uk to be entered into the draw. The winners will be announced on Tuesday October 14.
After the jump check out a selection of pics from the book. And we’ll have an interview with the artists in the lead up to the show so keep your eyes peeled for that too.
The 101ers have been doing their thing for tiiiiiime. Originally started in 1995 in Greece by Naze and Kesa they’ve since had an array of artists pass through their stables and in the early years of this century upped sticks to London town.
Now consisting of just Ren, Krah, Fors, Kai 1 and Eon, the boys will be showing new works at an exhibition at Brighton’s Visual Imprints gallery from October 2 – 25. Be sure to check out the opening party with live painting on October 2, for more info email the gallery here.
After the jump there’s a few teasers of what these guys are capable of.
These little gems were created while Karborn was squatting in Bristol at the tender age of just 17. Previously thought to be lost, the originals were unexpectedly returned to the artist by his old house mates.
The prints come in a set with 4 designs, from an edition of 20 sets, with each set priced at £25. To pick yours up go to the Duck Art shop here.
Full pics of the prints in the set after the jump.
We headed down to the Ben Frost private view last Thursday and the No Walls Gallery have done a fantastic job with their first show and we expect big things to come from this group and artist. A viewing is strongly recommended.

This is going up right now as I am typing this and we’ve got a whole host of shots of the amazing work that JR and his team are putting up. He opens his brand new solo shows on 3rd October at both Laz on Charing X Road and Laz on Greek St. More on these later…
Typical of the man, he’s working on a HUGE scale (as always) and is covering almost all of the side of Foyles bookshop on Manette St just off the Charing X Road. With pieces on the opposite building and the whole front of the other building and a stunning piece on the side, this is whetting the appetite for what could be amazing shows come the 3rd.
