Great In ’08: Zeus and K-Guy Say…

As part of Vandalog’s “Great in ’08” series, which will be running every day for the rest of the month. Check out previous posts here.

Who is one artist doing really great work right now?

K-Guy: Herakut.

Zeus: It has to be Herakut. Real skills.

Herakut’s Dirty Laundry Show

A few weeks ago I mentioned the new Herakut show “Dirty Laundry” opening this week in Covent Garden.

I’ll plan on twittering the private opening tomorrow, along with photos, so keep an eye on my twitter. The show opens to the public on Friday.
