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 a 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 Nicks career so far and marks the beginning of the next chapter.
