Artist Lord Biro has just received an email from American journalist Erik Peterson, features writer for the Nottingham Post, viscously attacking his drawing ' Pigeons having sex outside ASDA in Hyson Green' on show at his current exhibition 'Notts Post Secondary Modern Artshow', 7 West End Arcade Nottingham – finishes July 4 (not open Sunday).
Mr Peterson said in his email ''I was disgusted, mortified.. ..by “Lord” Biro’s vile depiction of pigeons..' and 'I shall be contacting my local councillor.. ..regarding this beastly attack on all that is good in the Forest Fields/Hyson Green area.' ..etc etc.
Many people who have seen the drawing including Radio Nottingham DJ John Holmes and media icon Ray Gosling find it very amusing. Other residents in the Hyson Green/Forest fields area past and present who are in the exhibition include – undercover cop Mark 'Flash' Kennedy, local guitarist Harry Stevenson and Robin Hoods' friend Much the Millers Son, who once lived at Bobbersmill on the nearby river Leen.
