"Make Love Not War" customs from Plaseebo

Launching next weekend, December 11th, 2010 @ the Superfrog Gallery in the New People Building in San Francisco is a HUGE group art show titled "LOVE MOVEMENT" which is a show organized by Shin Tanaka and Nao Shimojo and curated by Jeremy Brautman. Today we are getting a look at Bob Conge of Plaseebo's interpretation of love as he delivers once again a top notch custom figure which is titled "Make Love Not War"! Bob's style is almost instantly recognizable... even if it's not glowing with an internal LED light system. I really love the use of the body of this figure as things have been switched and mashed around. This is going to be one amazing show and will have tons of art pieces from artists circling the globe! Great stuff Bob, and to find out more about this custom, hit the jump for the complete backstory!

Backstory:
"It all began that black and stormy night when Teddy was killed. He became separated from his squad while on a recon patrol and lost his head, literally. This is when Teddy, free from earthly concerns, saw the light. A pink light actually and it was flashing "Make Love Not War". His first concern was to tell his best friend "T" of this wondrous revelation. T was still on the front lines when the ghost of Teddy appeared to him as a prophetic white bear head floating about 4 feet off the ground. T saw the light right away and transformed himself into Brigadier General Passion. He then fashioned the Love Gun from some old military parts for Teddy to command. Filling the Love Gun and his back pack tank with the pink Empathy Gas ( as invented by John Lennon in 1971 ), T and Teddy embarked to save the world from its self. Ah-men!"
