 Frontman of THE HORRORS Faris Badwan will be showcasing his artwork in an exhibition in London next month. The exhibition is entitled 'Drawing A Straight Number Nine' and will be on display at the Book Club venue featuring a hundred new pieces of art - drawings, projections, and other pieces of artwork - from August 11th to the 29th for public viewing. Badwan told NME magazine that: "What I wanted to get across with this exhibition was how much of a part of my life drawing always has been. It invades all of my daily routine, be it in the shredded form of masking tape stuck to my walls, line-drawings on restaurant napkins or the sketchbooks I carry with me. It really is the one constant, solid thing in my life – a stream which runs regardless of what I happen to be doing or where." Read our January 2010 interview with The Horrors HERE - which also features the drawing talents of Badwan himself, as well as each of his band-mates! For all 'Horrors fans who unfortunately do not live in the band's homeland, have a gander instead at some pages from Badwan's many sketchbooks, thanks to Vice magazine...
