In God We Trust

In Gods We Trust sees an exciting new exhibition from iconic artist and graffiti pioneer – Nick Walker – the artist’s first major solo show in 2 years.
Having created an international storm through a series of controversial street works (‘Le Corancan’ Paris - March 2010 and ‘Amerikarma’ New York - July 2010) the groundbreaking street artist is now moving from the streets back to the gallery.
In Gods We Trust confronts cultural practices and dogmas through a paradoxical exploration of political and religious landscapes. Debuting 12 new works, this shrewd new showcase is set to be Nick Walker’s most powerful collection to date.
Nick's work has acquired a strong following, with a broad spectrum of collectors including; superstar art lords the Mugrabi family, music stars Ian Brown and Robbie Williams, actor Donald Sutherland, footballer Michael Ballack and the president of Sony Motion pictures Deborah Schindler. Nick Walker’s last two solo shows (Pretty Decorating at the Carmichael Gallery, LA – Feb 2008 and V for Vandal at Black Rat Press, London - April 2008) have both been sell-out successes.

Prior to his openings, crowds of fans can be seen camping on the streets outside for over 24 hours in hope of purchasing a limited edition print.
Julian Farrow, Director, ART SENSUS said: “In Gods We Trust is a groundbreaking exhibition for us here at ART SENSUS, as for the first time ever, we are representing and promoting a home-grown British artist. For me, Nick Walker's art is symptomatic of this turbulent time in politics and religion, as he alludes to the latent hypocrisy and heterogeneous mind-set fostered in contemporary culture.”
“ART SENSUS is delighted that Nick Walker has chosen to complement his street graffiti with this tightly focused exhibition. I hope that the important issues raised in In Gods We Trust resonate across all the generations who are familiar with this seminal artist's work.” In an era where political correctness is heavily ingrained into our daily interactions, prepare to cast your judgements aside and be confronted by the irony of urban civilisation.
