To celebrate the documentary on uber collector Long Gone John
"The Treasures of Long Gone John", we're gearing up for an awe-inspiring international group exhibition showcasing some of Long Gone John’s favourite artists from the pop-surreal and lowbrow genre. The exhibition unearths some of the American underground art stars featured in the film including; Mark Ryden, Todd Schorr, Shag, Robert Williams, Coop, Tim Biskup, Camille Rose Garcia, Anthony Austgang, Gary Baseman and Seonna Hong. It's gonna be full of dark dripping fairytales, twisted nostalgic trips, jazz inspired graphic madness, devil girls aplenty, cartoon aesthetic on acid and some of the original visions from hotrod and custom culture’s original Robert Williams.
Book to see the film on Friday night (11 August), then come back to Outré for the opening of this inspired group show.
