Lik + Neon are excited to be hosting our first instore exhibition of 2013!
'A Night with Benjamin Phillips'
7.3.13 - 14.3.13
Private View: Thursday 7th March


A long admirer of Mr Phillips' work, we thought it was about time to
formally celebrate the artist's signature talent with an exhibition - which happily coincides with the recent release of  'Peanutborough Cucumberland'
 a collaborative book project by Benjamin Phillips and fellow illustrator Yeji Yun.
War scene from the book 'Peanutborough Cucumberland'
 Benjamin  has produced a bounty of new sculpture, prints,
framed originals & collectable postcards, especially for the exhibition.
Here's a sneak preview of some of the new work...
