Punch Me Panda is an artist, and his art is taking a blow for -- and from -- you. The performer, who describes himself as "sympathetically masochistic", invites anyone feeling frustrated, angry or simply having a bad day to take it out on him.
Tado have been busy over the last few months putting together The Private Panda Club which opened in Berlin as part of the Pictoplasma Conference. The exhibition featured a series of 10 photographs set in a panda-themed gentlemen's basement bar. The photographs are a collaboration between Tado, Tom Jackson and Kipi Ka Popo.
