Slightly longer pause than expected that, but have been digging in the crates for some stuff that seemed lost for a good while. Lots of interesting old bits to bring in the New Year then, including the flyer from Banksy’s show at Eat The Beat in late 2000, and what could well be the first [...]

Happy Christmas!
Christmas never mixes well with keeping up a blog, but normal service back in a day or two.
In the meantime, what the hell are you doing on the web anyway? Step away from the computer and go and have fun!
Happy christmas all!

More people leaving stuff round for others to find at the moment too, had these snaps sent in the other day, looks like 24 free pieces have just (or recently) been left round Bristol to spread Christmas cheer and good will and the like. Left in places like North Street in Bedminster, Cumberland Road, Feeder [...]

Jeffrow And The Fridges
It’s been ages since Jeffrow was out and about, but now he’s back with a little project. Always a fan of kitchen white goods, Jeffrow’s plan is to go round Bristol finding dumped fridges and asking the owner if they fancy having a piece done on the front of them. There are 4 images, which [...]

PRSC Auction Closes Tonight
Quick reminder that if you’re stuck for Christmas presents for anyone, then you could do worse than get down to the PRSC gallery at the end of Jamaica Street tonight, where bidding closes for the various pieces of work they’re auctioning off to raise funds for the project.
Apparently pieces are still pretty mixed in price, [...]

Nick Walker On St Michael’s Hill Gone
Lots of people will have seen this piece over the last year or so…
Nick Walker ‘Last Time In Chequers’. Swear it went up the day Tony Blair stopped being prime minister, so 27th June 2007 according to Wiki.
Anyway, as of the last few days, now gone.
Shame in a way, as it had been being peeled [...]

Pro Cathedral Lane And Park Place, Clifton
Enough of this gallery stuff already, back out to what’s going on around town. Took another wander up pro-cathedral lane by the triangle the other day, always a good spot for graf. Apparently one of the early shots in the ‘Children of the Can’ book was taken on this very lane in fact. Nothing new [...]

Here’s where it’s at so far…
…and here a plan for it when it’s all done. Being finished in [...]

PRSC Gallery And Auction
So, the PRSC project is becoming more self funding, and has finally sorted out that the way to do this with art coming out of their ears is to set up a permanent gallery and sell stuff on. The gallery opened last Friday night, and is a dry run for setting up the first permanent [...]
