Tis the season to be jolly — BLAB! and KRAMPUS are coming to town.
Curated by Monte Beauchamp of BLAB and hosted by Gary Pressman at Copro Gallery, get ready for a darkly magical lineup of contemporary painters, illustrators, and sculptors who will be adorning the walls with their own unique interpretations of the Yuletide Season’s favourite, hair-raising beast — KRAMPUS.
The opening event at Copro Gallery promises to wrap up 2025 with a deliciously dark and festive bang. Curator Monte Beauchamp will be signing copies of KRAMPUS: The Devil of Christmas along with his other Krampus merchandise, including boxed greeting card sets, sticker books, and playing card sets, published by Last Gasp. Prepare to relish in the works of over 50 artists!
