They seem to be announcing it rather early, but later this year will be a chance to see an awful lot of plastic bricks on Brick Lane in East London.

Specifically, a big display of large Lego sculptures is being put on inside the Old Truman Brewery near to Shoreditch Overground station.

What can be seen as part art event, part geeky fun, and frankly, part promo for a plastic toy manufacturer, the Art of Brick exhibition should have more than 75 objects on display made from over a million bricks.

You can already book tickets, even though the venue doesn’t open until this September.

I suspect the 20 foot tall Tyrannosaurus will be the most popular item on display. However, it better be really good to justify the £16.50 entry price for weekend tickets.

Not sure why the T&Cs need to explicitly state “No use of illegal drugs”. Isn’t that implicit in the fact that they are illegal?

Of course, being London, the best Lego is the ones used to create tube maps last year.
