Giant Robot is proud to host Long Time Listener, First Time Caller, an art show featuring new work by Team Macho. Team Macho is a collaborative illustration and fine art effort composed of Lauchie Reid, Chris Buchan, Nicholas Aoki, Jacob Whibley, and Stephen Appleby-Barr. The Toronto-based group uses all media (excepting digital), and its work crosses a multitude of boundaries in terms of conception and application. Pieces are rarely pre-planned, and only take form through the artists seeing each other at work. The end results are always surprising, witty, and pleasing in unexpected ways. Lately, Team Macho has been working toward a more finished look, with effort being put toward older modes of painting such as oils and airbrushing.

Long Time Listener, First Time Caller will feature new work with the focus, as always, being to explore the collaborative process, as well as a number of classic prints.

A reception for Team Macho will be held from 6:30 to 10:00 on Saturday, September 19. For more information about the artists, GRNY, or Giant Robot magazine, please contact:
