BBC News is reporting that The Hospital art gallery in London will put on an exhibit in September of this year showcasing the infamous relationship of The Sex Pistols' Sid Vicious and Nancy Spungen.

The exhibit includes a blood spattered poster advertising Never Mind The Bollocks which hung in room 100 of New York's Chelsea Hotel where Spungen was stabbed to death, allegedly by Vicious (who himself died from a heroin overdose months later while out on bail). The organizers are not however claiming that the blood is the result of Spungen's death. The collection of artifacts, including original T-shirts, posters and handwritten lyrics, was assembled over the past 15 years by art dealer Paul Stolper and Andrew Wilson (deputy editor of Art Monthly).

In less morbid news, two plaques were recently unveiled in north Norfolk to mark gigs played by the Sex Pistols. The first was at the Pavilion, in the village of West Runton in 1976, the second was in 1977 at the Cromer Links Pavilion (both venues have since been demolished). A ceremony in honour of the band was held at the Village Inn pub in West Runton this past Saturday.
