Lastplak is a group of around nine painters with different backgrounds and diverse skills. Our goal is to paint, no matter what surface, size or location. Our work can be found all over the world, but our homebase is Rotterdam, so that's where most of our stuff can be seen. Ja toch!
Ox-Alien just came back from holiday in Vietnam where he spread some of his aliens and some Lastplak posters. If you are gonna be in Vietnam soon and you spot one of these posters and take a picture with you in front of it, send it to lastplak@gmail.com and we wil send you a poster for free! Here some pictures.
Last saturday it was once again time for the anual Maassluis Art Tour Saus Sessie at Grrt's. The weather was ok, the beers were nice and the food was good. The caravan got it's 20th layer of paint and oh, and there was a theme; don't paint your normal character. Can you figure out who did what?
Last saturday there was also the Goofy vs. Regular graffiti contest at Area51 in Eindhoven. Pinwin, Mayb and Sterf participated for the crew and took the 3rd place! To check the whole wall click HERE!
Last weekend we had a demolition jam right in de middle of Rotterdam city at the Grote Markt. Because there are no legal spots to paint in Rotterdam we decided to paint this demolition site. Old and new school writers showed up from all over the country and the sun was on our side. Luckily the police didn't bother us. Here some pictures.
Last Saturday’s Lastplak Your Art Fair was a big succes! The project was realized in only two weeks, so big Thanks to all the artists who joined in on such short notice and basic possibilities. There were about 800 visitors through the evening and beer was sold out even twice, like always… The fair showed a nice variety of work and gained lots of interest and positive reactions. All film material that was shot will probably appear online soon.
The exhibition, presentations and live paint session were suitably accompanied by DJ sets ftom Martha, Tjerk, Michiel and the Captain. Host of the evening De Rijminstructeur spit his linguistic linesand prepared the crowd for the Reggaeton and Hiphop live acts, something some people were not so used to, but props to these young guys for rocking their set!
As soon as the fair was put up, it was torn down, and we definitely hope to do something like this again somewhere in the future!
