Nick Walker: A Sequence of Events

LONDON - Book Launch / Book Signing / London (Solo) Show 28 May 2009

Black Rat Press would like to announce that our next exhibition is a book launch and solo show of works by Nick Walker. Drago publishing invited Nick to work with them on a book to be published as part of their 36 Chambers Series. The 36 Chambers is an ongoing Drago project where artists are invited to produce a book with 96 pages in black, white and a colour of their choice - beyond this broad guideline artists have total freedom over the content of the book. For Nicks book - A Sequence of Events - he produced a series of works on paper and we are delighted to celebrate the launch of the book by holding an exhibition of these works along with a book signing.

The exhibition will provide a unique opportunity to gain an overview of Nicks work to date. Currently planning a New York show featuring a new direction and body of work this show is a celebration of Nick’s career so far and marks the beginning of the next chapter.

Nick Walker is one of the world’s best known street artists and his instantly recognisable style and humour have gained him a worldwide following. In 2008 Nick had sell out shows in LA and at Black Rat Press in London where collectors queued for over 36 hours to be amongst the first to get into the preview.

Nick has attracted headlines worldwide, in the UK these include the front page of the Independent arts magazine 2008 and the Observers round up of the year’s biggest events of 2008. His work is in numerous public and private collections worldwide and can currently be seen exhibited alongside Warhol, Murakami and Marden in the ‘With you I want to Live’ show at the Museum of Fort Lauderdale.
