Spacejunk are hosting a new exhibition, Les Enfants Terribles, at Le Plateau espace d'exposition in Lyon from September 17.
The show is a celebration of lowbrow and pop surrealism art movements and features such artists as Reg Mombassa, Jeff Soto and Robert Crumb.
Says Spacejunk: "Throughout time, the art world has seen its share of enfants terribles whose work questions academic standards and disrupts the established channels of distribution and ways of acquiring legitimacy. [...] Drawing their inspiration from comic books, cartoons, Kustom Kulture and, more recently, from the world of tattoos, skateboarding and alternative music, these artists confront us with our own cultural references."
So go get your chin-stroking on...
