If you are in Berlin these days, go and visit the first German solo exhibition of Belgian superillustrator PARRA. Mathias Modica – Our man from M.U.N.K. will do some nice music at the vernissage event on Thursday 27th August.
Not only is PARRA one of the most interesting talents in graphic and new subcult art but he also has a nice little music project: It’s called LELE and he did his first remix for us here at Gomma. Check LELE REMIX of HEADMAN’s “Running into time”. Vernissage will be Thursday.
