Joe Ledbetter's first U.K exhibition, "SHOCK AND AWE!" opened last Saturday evening the 10th of October in Notting Hill. The evening welcomed a large crowd of dedicated fans and some newcomers to the gallery.

The exhibition was an over all great success and we are really proud to have had some a great artist show with us here at London Miles. Follow the rest of Joe's AMALGAMATION TOUR 2009 on his blog, his next stop is Amsterdam!

While each exhibition will showcase a different theme, the work is meant to show international commonalities through current events and humour.
London Miles Gallery is proud to host the launch event of the tour and Joe Ledbetter’s first European solo exhibition. Inspired by Rock and Roll and 80’s travelling rock bands , “Shock &Awe”opens onOctober 10th and will be on display until November 10th.

About Joe Ledbetter:
Influenced by classic animation, graphic design, and daily life, Joe Ledbetter's art is... well... a lot of things. Light-hearted in its approach, he often combines cute and cuddly creatures with unfortunate — albeit humorous — situations. With a lean on the subversive and absurd, these scenarios are all too familiar, questioning our tendency of taking life (and ourselves) too seriously.
While working as a graphic apparel artist for three years, Ledbetter got involved in the LA underground art scene, beginning with group shows like Cannibal Flower. By the summer of 2004, he had honed his trademark visual style of emblematic line-work, vibrant colours, and endearing characters to the point of quitting his day job. His incredible cast of creatures have since been emblazoned on over 100 designer vinyl toys, as well as apparel and lifestyle brands, the world over.
To attend the private opening on October 10th, 2009 please R.S.V.P to Sales@Londonmiles.com

Nothing Gold Can Stay, the first European solo show with Scott Belcastro opened Last night, Thursday the 17th of September at London Miles Gallery. Scott Belcastro was not able to make it to the opening due to being all the way over in California, but the collection of beautiful paintings he created for this show is some of his best work to date. The show included some large works, size 30 x 40 inches and few smaller ones, 12 x 12. The amazing shading of his endless skies to the detailed splattered grassy hills created such a warm and truly stunning collection of work. It was wonderful to watch people as they walked up closely to see the pieces in detail and how a silence just over took them. Scott's work tends to just make you feel at peace, and a inner silence that is hard to find in our day to day hectic lives.
The exhibition will be on display until October 5th, and all the artworks are on sale. If you have any questions about purchasing the artworks, please email Sales@londonmiles.com
We look forward to you visiting the gallery and enjoying Scott's Beautiful collection of artworks as much as we do. This is really one of our most special exhibitions to date.
