Electrik Sheep Presents....  A solo show of new work from Jon Bugerman. What most see as a discarded piece of cardboard littering a side street, Jon Burgerman sees as an opportunity; a blank canvas to fill with his signature doodles and characters all jostling to escape from their colourful habitat in an explosion of energy. Jon follows on from a roster of successful shows in '09 at Electrik Sheep, a wicked show to end the year ! “Paralysis of Choice” opens Friday 27th November at 6 pm with one of Electrik Sheep’s infamous street parties and will fun till the end of December. For those who can’t make it to the show all work will be available online at www.electriksheep.co.ukHere's a few pieces he's prepared so far, sizes / pricing / etc. to come !     Opens 27th November 6pm, till 31st December For more information contact Laura Dover laura@electriksheep.co.uk +44 (0)191 261 4444 www.electriksheep.co.ukwww.jonburgerman.com

I bought Jons book yesterday after having flicked through it for about an hour in Magma book shop in Seven Dials. I am not normally the kind of person who reads books in the shop, but I truly couldn't put it down. So colourful, and full of energy. I am definetly going to buy something at the show.

Ah db, thanks a lot that's great to hear, sure he'll love it !!
Thanks also, as usual, to everyone who came along, it was MOBBED and a brilliant atmosphere ! Jon was also very happy with the turnout and response.
The afterparty was also good... had to be a few headaches in Newcastle this morning...
