Early lies
25th June - 18th July 2009
South London based artist Chris Getliffe is most well known for his dark & subversive Illustrations. He adopts a minimalist high impact ‘pop art’ style heavily rooted in urban street art. Getliffe savagely attacks the media portrayal of what it is to be a successful ‘functioning’ human being. He works across multiple mediums with painting, illustration, & comics.
He has painted live on the walls of prestigious London venues such as Cargo & 93 Feet East. His work has been featured by the likes of Time Out, Disorder, Who’s Jack, & Gravity Guide. He has also produced work for Carhartt,We Hart Records, Artful, & Fix amongst many others

Tank gallery opened its doors for the first time with a dynamic cross-disciplined group show Think Tank. The exhibition offers an introduction to ten artists, some of which will hold solo shows here in the coming year. Think Tank aims to highlight the width and breath of styles and practices we aim to show at Tank Gallery. Featuring established international artists, recent graduates and previously un-shown artists alongside each other, we have presented an exciting taster of what is to come.
Think Tank will continue until the 3rd of May. We will also be hosting a late night opening on 30th of April featuring a talk by Berlin artist Christine Kriegerowski about Welcome to Wonderland, her projected collection of photographs on show.
