INSTALL DAY WITH RELIC

 

On Wednesday, August 1, 2012 we began install day #1 with RELIC.  We had a lot of fun seeing the new show come together.  A lot of the work is vibrantly colored, very nicely framed and thick with acrylics and spray paint.  RELIC explained that there is a lot of him, his culture and substance in each of his pieces, especially in his piece "Jeepney" where a lot of the artist exists within the frame.  We appreciate RELIC's hard work in putting together his newest show "KUYA".  We hope everyone can join us Saturday, August, 4, 2012 as we open the doors to this brand new show.  We can't wait for you to see it.

JAIME GUERRERO PAINTING LIVE TONIGHT @ CREWEST

Urban Geisha

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT:  Jaime Guerrero will be painting live @7pm tonight at Crewest during the Dowtown Artwalk.  We are very excited to be able to share his talent as he paints live for everyone to enjoy.  

To get to know Jaime Guerrero more, below find his artist statement and website:

"I'm a Freelance artist living in Los Angeles. Ever since I can remember I've had an urge to create. This strong desire has led me to become skilled in creative activities such as drawing and painting. Over the years my artistic interests have greatly expanded; art has always been about experimentation and discovery. It's a fluid process that I greatly enjoy.

My current work is concentrated around the entertainment industry, such as concept art for games, scripts, and commercials. I also do editorial illustrations as well as personal paintings. I incorporate traditional and digital techniques to my work, and try to find a balance between the two."  -Jaime Guerrero

SNEAK PEEK OF "BUY PRODUCT" TWO RABBITS SOLO SHOW

We are very pleased to present “Buy Product” a solo show featuring the newest and greatest works by the amazingly clever Two Rabbits.  “Buy Product” opens this Thursday, January 12, 2012 during the Downtown Artwalk. 

Here is a sneak peak of some of their works that will be on display:

About Two Rabbits: 

Two Rabbits Studios is a design firm, commercial screen print shop, and fine art studio ran by Los Angeles-based artists Mike Thacker and Bob Motown. Since 2007, the pair have designed and printed hundreds of rock posters and promotional pieces for movies and video games. Two Rabbits started small in a North Hollywood backyard—less than five years later, and they've been featured in galleries, Flatstock poster shows, and craft fairs in the United States and UK. They've worked with Warner Music Group and concert promoters Goldenvoice for artists ranging from Skrillex to  Wu Tang to Portishead. Recently, Thacker and Motown's focus has been on fine art pieces that reflect upon their hand-printed process and design.
