Le Rat in London

Yesterday people queued to gain entry to the Opera Gallery in New Bond Street, London, for the opening of the Blek Le Rat exhibition (CLICK). The 60-year-old Frenchman is billed as "The Godfather of Street Art". Above is his Kalashnikov. His signature rat obviously inspired Banksy. But why bother to queue in the rain? CLICK for a BBC slide show instead.
