This Saturday

I know you'll dearly miss our drunken freestyle battles at all the hipster bars this weekend but we're off to Nashville to check out Twist Art Gallery's opening. We're partnering up with them in the upcoming year to bring some Nashville artists to Atlanta and some of our local favorites up there.

Don't worry, we'll be true to our school. Just like we would to our girl or guy.

Warning Phase 1 (In Progress)


A version of this is actually Metatronic's first entry for the ME/WE show, which is being finished by Bryan Westberry. On another note, Bryan's been working on a hilarious new cartoon called Oxmar. Check out the website for more info.

Fresh New Kicks!

Vik Singh, you are my hero.

I've never owned shoes I didn't buy at Target, Payless, or some other knock-offery, so I definitely don't know how to rock shoes like these.
Do I need special pants? Socks? Some kind of unique facial hair? What colors?

HELP!

Love,
James

Chris Devoe at Highland Inn Tonight!

Aside from being an awesome guy, Chris is also an amazing musician and DJ. Check him out tonight @ Highland Inn:

One night only Audio Visual clash from David Moore (Eyekiss Films) and Chris Devoe, featuring a mix of Downtempo, Breaks, Chill Hip Hop, and Progressive Beats by Arepaz Reoords artist Chris Devoe.

Em's Munny


No it's not the subtitle for City Slickers 3, it's a toy / sculpture by Beep Beep intern Em Kemph which was featured in last Saturday's Munnybrella show over at Mint Gallery. Em is what they call a "polymath", one whose knowledge is not restricted to one subject area (thanks for the vocab Em.) You can learn all about her various art and music excursions over at her blog notaglumalot.

Check check it!

Warning Signs

Lately I've been really obsessed with warning diagrams and have started working on some pieces featuring them.

There's something really fascinating about an image that has to convey some deadly accident in the simplest form possible without using words. Don't let baby drown in the paint bucket!

The ones without people are the best, especially the "shield your eyes. lasers in operation." sign I have in my bathroom (not pictured). I also really like this one from the air conditioner behind Aurora that looks like an electric shock warning for Masons.
I'll upload some of the drawings as they progress.

Welcome!

Howdy! There's plenty going on at Beep Beep outside of what's actually in the gallery. Collectively we're involved in all kinds of stuff including curating, zines, street art, music, our own art, djing, and much much more not to mention all the things that our friends are stirring up.

Hope you enjoy!
