All sorts of art from all sorts of artists. 6 artists in a month, that has to be a Cargo record. First up was Hush and Asbestos painting at King Adz Urban Cook Book launch

Hush has been painting here frequently in 2008, the same year in which his technique of melding large eyed temptresses in various form of undress with furious backgrounds consisting off newspaper cuttings, 1950′s americana quotes has become much sort after. Click here for my interview with Hush, more work and a clever video from Romanywg.

It was only a matter of time until Hush painted ‘his’ women with their breateses out…

Also painting that day was Asbestos. Mysterious, hand obsessed Irish artist who has been making his mark on the art scene through subtle ‘finger painting at the Cans Festival and the Take A Deep Breath Show at the Carmichael Gallery across the pond. One to watch out for.

The following Saturday, Anthony for Opus sorted out for Part2ism (or part2 for the oldschool folk) to come and paint with Copyright down at the Yard. Everyone was pretty miffed that Part2 had painted over Hush’s piece, but he assured us he rang Hush to ask him personally. Here’s Copyright’s piece below, for more info on Part2 and Copyright check the Opus Underground website.

Gent of the scene Blam painted down on Cargo’s infamous ’5th wall’.  The dude has his ‘painting open mouths’ down. Click here for Blam’s website.

A couple of weeks later the 5th wall was covered in twisted icons of capitalism, self imposed happy heroes of our generation, ugly spokespeople of the dumb founded kids from the 80′s. That’s right, Australia’s finest Ben Frost, at the tail end of his Craptalism show on Dray Walk, came down to throw up a black and white version of his take on the corporate world. We all think we should have a massive colouring in competition like Wimpy used to have. Don’t go outside the lines!!

If you want to paint or know someone who would like to ‘do their art’ down in Cargo’s yard, then drop an e-mail to art@cargo-london.com. Thanks to everyone who comes down and keeps the walls ticking over, and an extra special thanks to Anthony from Opus Underground. Big Up

Lots of love
