New Series with Chaz at the Adhoc Gallery in New York

Under the name The London Police, Bob Gibson has once again teamed up with Chaz to make three original works on canvas for the “4 Geezers” show at the Adhoc Gallery in Brooklyn, New York (www.adhocart.org).

After a successful opening night the duo are now busy making new work, combining their two contrasting styles not seen since the Dutch Masters Show in 2006.

10 Years on the Circle Line opens in London

After weeks of careful hand drawn preparation (and a couple of nights sleeping in the studio on bubblewrap) 10 Years on the Circle Line is now open at the Stolenspace Gallery www.stolenspace.com. The opening night was a great success and we would like to thank Richard, Eve, Beth, Clare, Tom, Tab and of course The Monk for all their hard work. See the TLP collabs section for all the finished work.

The sketch book drawings of the opening are by Boston’s own Brian Butler. www.theupperhandart.com

10 Years Later opens in Amsterdam

TLPs 10 year celebration continued in Amsterdam this May. The opening night saw a strong turnout from friends and socialites in Amsterdam’s famous Jordaan quarter. 8 new hand drawn works were on show plus a limited edition print . Following on from the “EVERY 20 MINS” photo project seen at last years Brooklyn (NYC) show TLP decided to repeat the idea but this time with Bob participating too. The rules were the same. Take a photo every 20mins 24 hours a day for seven days and then deal with your weak immunity system and failing relationships later. We’d like to thank Mo, Minivila, The School of Chris, Oscar and Farud for all their patience and hard work. For a panoramic view of the show see http://www.c360.nl/gogallery_tlp/

Green Day Artwork.

When he’s not necking tequilas and playing oldskool arcade games Logan Hicks is busy making world class stencils and, on this occasion, selecting a team of artists to collaborate with some band called GREEN DAY on an art/music project for their new album. The show including 14 other artists will tour with the band over the next year or so. Thanks to Logan and Green Day for getting us involved

Amsterdam Wall Piece is finished

How pleasing it was when the seemingly nice bloke who lives at Prinsengracht No.70 allowed TLP to adorn the facade of his building with a choice black and white image of a totempole lad being constructed by a Bob Gibson robot. How displeasing then, when on the fourth day, the Amsterdam Gemeente (city council) officials arrived and politely told us we needed extra permission to paint any building in the city centre. They kindly allowed us to finish the characters but we were not allowed to make a start on any further background etc. The case is currently under review with the city council whether to keep the painting. They must decide whether normal everyday human beings would prefer to see a considered art mural or a banal grey wall which serves as a breeding ground for weak graffiti and posters advertising drug fuelled house music events where DJs spin other peoples shit records.
