The paintings will be shown from October 22nd through November 1st which is the dates that span the UK concert tour by the band. They will be seen only at the StolenSpace Gallery, which is located in Shoreditch, East London.

The band has already set the momentum for the opening by selling out two back to back performances in London, at the O2 Arena, which will kick off the tour.

Lead singer of Green Day, Billie Joe Armstrong, said that the band is excited about the opening of the art show, and that they are thrilled that their album has spawned artwork, since they feel that the music they make is a form of creative expression that fans are connecting too.

The artists behind the commissioned works include French stencil artist C215 and Ron English who were sent album and lyrics and asked to create art that captured the essence of the album.
