Art:Bob London

A resident and contemporary of East London's forward-thinking art scene, Bob London is an astute observer of the human condition. The Irish-born artist is forever on a quest to survey and explore every last aspect of human existence. From the beautiful to the bizarre, the morose to the mundane, London presents his findings in a variety of haunting and evocative drawings, paintings, and one-of-a-kind customized clothing and accessories.

Defining traits of the elusive and often-mysterious London include his predilection for finely made knit cardigans and his presence as co-curator, alongside Tom Wilmott, at the Flea Pit gallery in Shoreditch. A venerated illustrator in both the UK and the US, London has been commissioned by publications including the LA Times and the Guardian. He has also exhibited his work at the National Portrait Gallery in London, and was recently invited to exhibit as part of an upcoming tribute exhibition, honoring the late, great John Peel.
