Wild Fantasies at Stolen Space 24/9 - 3/10

20 flat banksy prints on the door! And prints for fifty quid in a 'blind' sale - sounds alot like a plan to stay well away from the preview night.

'Wild Fantasies'


A Decade Of Don't Panic Posters

24.09.10 - 03.10.10

An Exhibition Celebrating Ten Years Of The Don’t Panic Poster Guest Curated By Leon Martyn.



Anyone who has been going out in a major city in the UK, and in the fact the world, in the last 10 years, will have picked up a Don't Panic Pack. Starting in London in 2000 these packs are collected and sought after across the globe by those interested in the city's arts and culture for the information inside and in particular the highly collectible and valuable Don't Panic Poster. This unique format has provided a springboard for young creatives and a source of free art for a generation of urban aficionados. Delivered in the ubiquitous Don’t Panic Packs, the Posters have become part of the cityscape across the UK and a treasured component of a night out. See the most famed highlights for the first time ever and ten new pieces of work from street artists, one for each year of the Don't Panic Poster, in ‘Wild Fantasies’ Don't Panic Exhibition.



The exhibition will feature ten limited edition screen prints from some Don’t Panic favourites and some new collaborators alongside 50 classic Don't Panic Posters.



Ten New Screen Prints By:

D*Face

Mr Jago

Word to mother

C215

Holly Wales

Cyclops

Mudwig

Pure Evil

James Joyce

Shepard Fairey



Each artist will produce 50 signed and numbered screen prints all available to buy for an affordable price (TBC). However like the Packs buyers won’t be able to try before they buy as posters will be ‘blind tubed’ leaving their contents a mystery.
