Invisible Cities Show, by BlackRatPress on Feb 17, 2012 11:54:03 GMT 1, Its 2012 and we at Black Rat Projects are feeling excited for the year ahead. Last year ended with the success of Swoon’s Murmuration installation and we hope you all had a chance to come by and see it.
Our first show of the year will open on Friday 24rd February. Invisible Cities features secondary market works by Banksy and Shepard Fairey alongside works by Swoon. This diverse group of artists are eponymous with the current Street Art movement in their retrospective cities. While these three artists work in very different styles addressing a range of different themes and concerns, what unites them is their creation of Invisible Cities; laid out over the pre-existing landscape in unexpected places – in these we find moments of unrestricted creativity and human connection. We will be holding a preview evening for Invisible Cities on Thursday 23rd February from 6.30pm – 9pm. Invites will be sent out early next week.
This year will also see Black Rat Projects hitting the airwaves! Yes, that’s right, the sound of Black Rat will be coming to you every month on Strongroom Alive Radio. You can expect news from our favourite street artists, interviews and all our favourite music. Our first show airs live this week Friday 17th February 7-9pm on 87.9FM, with special guest Jaimie de Cruz, producer of the Banksy’s Oscar nominated Exit Through the Gift Shop.
www.strongroom.fm The show will be available to download afterwards.
February will also feature the launch of a brand new print by Candice Tripp “This Will Hurt Tomorrow”. We await its arrival with baited breath; stay tuned for more details.
In January this year Black Rat travelled to Kenya with Swoon to run art workshops in Meru, Kenya with the Equality Effect, a human rights charity. The Equality Effect is an incredible charity and Black Rat is proud to be partnering with them in 2012. Later in the year we will be co-hosting an auction on their behalf. For more details on their work, and to make a donation….please visit their website www.theequalityeffect.org
