      Timed Edition Print Release by Sebas Velaso

      by

      Over the past year, Sebas Velaso have received many requests from collectors wanting to acquire works at more affordable prices. While this is difficult with the growing demand for work, Sebas has always maintained that more people should have access, than less. The artist have decided to issue a timed release print of two recent images in an effort to keep the work inclusive and accessible, while respecting the growing popularity of the very limited originals.Kalejdoskop Moich Dróg (Kaleidoscope of my ways)Kao da je Bilo Nekad (As it Was Once Before)Fine Art Print Giclee on Hahnemühle 310gsmHand Pulled Varnish Finish45cm x 45cm£150The prints were launched  last Wednesday 26th April 16:00.Over the past few years, Sebas Velasco has identified himself among the great documentarians of the transitional countries of Eastern Europe. With frequent visits to countries of former Yugoslavia, Poland, Hungary or Ukraine; Velasco observes the shifting relationship between the urban environment and economical/political structures. Compositions are collaged from his own photography to create impossible yet familiar vistas, his brutal constructions become stoic remnants of a memory lost to time.It’s been a busy start to the year with Sebas on the road for research and in Studio preparing for upcoming shows including European Museum of Modern art in Barcelona and a group exhibition in China for an show curated by Sir Nicholas Penny, former director of the National Gallery, London.Ascended the the Mer Collection (Image Wasted Years)Following its honourable mention in a painting prize from the Museum of Modern European Art and a shortlist position with the Royal Society of Portrait painters, ‘Wasted Years’ has been acquired by the prestigious Mer Collection, one of the most important private collections in the current Spanish scene. The collection specialises in European and American figuration since 1980 and includes masterpieces of artists such as Eric Fischl, Cindy Sherman, Marlen Dumas, Lisa Yuscavage, Merilyn Minter, Luis Gordillo and Cecily Brown. The title takes its name from an Iron Maiden song title, a band who famously supported the British football team West Ham. The subject is further shown wearing the clubs iconic burgundy and blue jersey. Special thanks to Sergio García Bayón.Exhibition at the Museum of European Modern ArtSebas is proud to announce his participation Representational Art 2023 which opened at European Museum of Modern Art (MEAM) in Barcelona on 21st April – 25th June. Cited by the Culture Trip as one Barcelona’s Top Museums, the collection is housed in an 18th-century palace, showcasing figurative paintings & sculpture from the past 200 years.Collaborations with long time friend and Artist SAINERFollowing their on street collaboration in Colombia this past December, the two artists have recently completed a canvas that has spent the past year going back and forth between Spain and Poland. With a focus on colour, we see abstract and figurative collide as Sebas’ density and depth is offset against Sainer’s bold and flat juxtapositions. Across city scapes or landscapes, cold neon or warm sun, a spectrum of progress underscores the piece. From the raw grid marked canvas to the highest saturation of colour, we are suspended in a deliberate moment of possibility for what could be and what will be. More

      “The Olympic Ring between Apollo and Daphne” by OZMO in Paris, France

      by

      OZMO, on the occasion of the Planète Périphérique Festival, the project organized by the RAS association and realized with the support of RIVP and the Mairie du 20eme,  had the opportunity to create an artistic intervention that develops on the exterior walls of an entire building located in the heart of the Python-Duvernois district, in Porte de Bagnolet, in the 20th arrondissement of Paris.The context and the formal features of the building inspired him for this project: it is impossible to think of painting on the main facade, full of balconies, windows and pillars, so he tried to find a solution that would make these elements become an integral part of the main subject: a huge, fiery red ring.For  The Olympic Ring between Apollo and Daphne   – this is the title of the work I made –  he then recontextualized Apollo chasing Daphne and Daphne chased by Apollo, the statues that the brothers Nicolas and Guillaume Coustou created for the park of the castle of Marly and that from 1940 are in the Louvre.The statues, designed and arranged so as to make a parallel run, are now depicted on the ends of the palace, one on each of the blind side walls, as directed in the opposite direction. They are reached and wrapped by the large red ring, shaded like a neon sign, overlooking the facade.This element, the real protagonist of the intervention, which unfolds along the two suspenders that join the balconies, is a reference to the busy périférique, the Parisian ring road, on which the intervention faces? Is that an answer to the huge advertising signs on the building across the street? Or is that a fil rouge? Does it evoke a track, a path or an orbit? And what possible link does it have to the red ring of the Olympics citeThe Olympic Ring between Apollo and Daphne offers itself to the passerby as an element of short-circuit and harmonization: between the two mythological figures, between the walls of the building, between the idea of the center and the suburbs, and between our perception of street art, graffiti and ancient and contemporary art in the urban context.The Intervention was presented on 13 April during the vernissage of the Planète Périphérique Festival, the extraordinary event that involved about one hundred artists who have created painted installations and interventions in the 3000 m2 of 21 apartments. The collective exhibition will be open until 7 May 2023. More

      Shithouse to Penthouse – Edwin

      by

      Scourge of London’s developers and voice of the people, Edwin, drops his debut solo show ‘Shithouse to Penthouse’ at BSMT Space.London’s development from sharehousing and affordable artist spaces to high-rise luxury apartments and hotdesk hell is perhaps irrepressible, but it at least demands comment. That’s where Edwin’s wit and words come in.For anyone vaguely literate in East London, it would have been almost impossible not to have seen and understood at least one of Edwin’s works over the past decade.Featuring a retrospective of street works alongside new art, the show is a powerful critique of the strategies deployed by developers to inflate their property values, the artists and artworks that form a part of those methodologies, the current status quo of life in London, and a balls out takedown of the rotten fucking Tories.“Sometimes my work can be an intimate conversation with myself that just happens to be highly relatable” – EdwinContained in the voice of dissent shouted by his street works is a respectful nod to the lineage of King Mob and Heathcote Williams, whilst his protest poster series reminiscent of Steve ‘ESPO’ Powers and Christopher Wool. In his confronting social commentary, Edwin asserts that art and protest are inseparable.‘Shithouse to Penthouse’, seeks, for the very first time in a gallery setting, to engage the viewer directly with the multi-faceted aspects of Edwin’s work that underpin the humanity of life in the big smoke.“Like a haircut in the height of lockdown or a man lost in his phone at the pub, these are the throwaway moments I have chosen to explore and process by rendering them in paint and laying down those connections in my memory of that time and place” – Edwin‘Shithouse to Penthouse’ opens with a private view at 6pm on April 20th at BSMT gallery in Dalston.The show will run until May 7th.
