TONIGHT @ ANDENKEN GALLERY: DAZE – FAT CAPS AND BURNT RACKS: RECENT WORKS

The walls of Andenken Gallery are covered in a beautiful spectrum of color. Please join us tonight starting at 7pm for the opening of DAZE. A Buyers preview will be available later today. If you have any questions please visit andenkengallery.com or contact tom@andenkengallery.com

Andenken Gallery is honored to host Chris “Daze” Ellis’ solo show, “Fat Caps and Burnt Racks: Recent Works.” The show consists of recent paintings and works on paper, inspired by and drawn from the artists’ vast collection of sketchbooks.

“To me the sketchbook has always been an important part of my artistic development. It is a part of my creative process in which ideas are spawned, developed, and ultimately refined. Many of the paintings in the exhibition contain actual pages from my sketchbooks and diaries and reveal the underlying layers of development of both figurative themes and letter styles. In some works such as the agenda paintings, the central focus is a representational portrait. In others I have used the style of my name as the focal point. Either way, both reveal that the core of my subject matter has always been urban themed.”

Daze’s work is included in the permanent collections of The Museum of Modern Art and the Brooklyn Museum in New York,  as well as the Ludwig Museum in Aachen, Germany, to name a few. Recent projects include working on large outdoor murals in Rio de Janeiro, Paris and New York, as well as design work for Stussy, Upper Playground and Andsuns. With shows in Paris, Stockholm, Florence, New York, Chicago, Tokyo and Geneva, one can find Daze’s work in private collections and galleries worldwide.

Opening reception will be held Friday June 5th at 7pm. Andenken Gallery is located at 2990 Larimer St., Denver, Colorado. A buyer’s preview will be sent out on Friday evening. Please contact Andenken Gallery by email to be placed on the buyer’s list for all shows in the future.

London Police in Amsterdam

So…awesome show coming up in Amsterdam I’m pretty excited to see.  London Police solo show at GO Gallery opening this Saturday.   Like most everybody,  I love the smiley little ‘Lads’ and this is my first chance to see a full on explosion of new work from this dynamic duo.  Here are the details as they sent them to me.  Pass it on.

GO Gallery invites you for the exhibition of

The London Police, 10 Years Later…

The London Police started in 1998 when two English geezers moved to Amsterdam to add some British flavour to the liberal streets of Holland’s capital. From humble beginnings, drawing their iconic “Lads” characters throughout the city, TLP have spent the last 10 years traveling the world leaving artistic traces and making shows in over 35 countries. To celebratea decade of TLP the duo have collaborated their unique styles to produce a mixture of new canvasses and their latest photo documentary project.  Bring your mates, bring your dog, there’s something for all the family.

Who cares wins.

AMANDA MARIE AT METROPOLIS

Colorado and Andenken Gallery favorite Amanda Marie is set to show new work at Metropolis with Lesley Reppeteaux.

Amanda Marie:

Amanda’s vintage sewing patterns and children’s book characters are vivid and graphic, bringing the audience a nostalgic warmth, drawing them into the hidden metaphors and relationships while hybridizing spray paint stencil graffiti and neo neo expressionism with acrylic paint. After college, Amanda has been represented by Andenken Gallery where she shows her paintings several times a year, including Andenken’s portable gallery at the Democratic National Convention in which she appeared alongside Shepard Fairey, The Date Farmers and David Choe. Amanda’s work, along with Swoon, is one of the few strong female presences on the stencil art/street art scene.

Lesley Reppeteaux:

Born in Nova Scotia, but an eventual resident of a half-dozen US cities, Lesley’s brand of Pop Surrealism has been shown at Copro Nason, Thinkspace, M Modern, La Luz De Jesus, Gallery 1988, DVA Gallery and more. Though she and Amanda both attended the same art school and have shown at the same galleries, this 2-person show will mark their first meeting. Lesley’s painted fables show a love of classic Disney animation, as well as contemporary artist Camille Rose Garcia.
