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!
Today, GRRT, Oles, Pinwin, P Bloem and Torrie first went to Schijndel to paint a kid's bedroom, Pascal. The boy suffers from a heavy disease and had a wish to have graffiti painted in his bedroom. The Stichting Kinderdroomwens organisation came in action to get this done. Allthough Pascal prefered a big middlefinger and "FUCK YOU!" on his wall, which his parents dind't agree with, he still was pretty satisfied wth the result, even though it had girlie pink color in it.
Afterwards we roll on to Den Bosch to see the Art Academy's graduation expo featuring works of Mayb and Sterf, nice stuff ! Another part of the expo is a DIY Patatkraam where you have to peel, shape and fry your own potato, good fun !
Then we're of to a squat give-it-away-shop and restaurant to paint some stuff on the walls. Also we force an old VW van off the road for a 10 min. paint job.
As a tribute to Ds. Hans Visser and the forthcoming destruction of the Pauluskerk, our Lastplak crew and friends painted a mural on the side of the buiding.
Pinksterweekend 2007, that means caravan out and camping ! Unfortunately for Grrt his caravan got trashed the night before so he had to ride with satanic messages all over it it across Holland. Early afternoon we arrive at the Napalmed headquarters in Maastricht and set up our camp. Then we do some painting,drinking, talking bullshit, peeping around in the massive old factory and painting and drinking again. The bar is stashed with personally imported Ottakringer beer by the Vienna connection. The next day we do the Kunsttour and ofcourse pass by Skriepa's gallery with some dope ass works ! Also Grrts caravan gets a fresh new paintjob so he can drive home without red cheekbones.
While working on a closed window of a shop, the neighbour comes asking if we also can do the side of his wall. After making an appointment for Queensdaymorning, we sit down for a beer as a badly painted car with two lameheads drives by noticing our comment. 5 min. later they park the car around the corner and we repaint it. A week later, Queensday we paint the wall of the shop at Oude Binnenweg in neo folkloristic fashion.
After painting De Groene Voltage, we continue our tour through the Blijdorp neighbourhood. We paint a flower shop's van. Pity the sexshop suddenly decided not to have his shop painted, so we're off tho the tobacco shop for a space ciggy theme. Offcourse the Flowershop wants a painting too, so he's next.
During the Motel Mozaique festival we spend two days painting at the old Hofplein station. It is temporary rebuilt as festival and camping site on a huge podium with great view on the city. Main act here this weekend is Duvel Duvel.
