  • Logan Hicks Brings Advanced Stencil Art to No Limit Borås
    2015-04-19 05:10 CEST Logan Hicks brings advanced stencil art to No Limit Borås Logan Hicks is a New York-based artist known for his photorealistic stenciled paintings. Studying at the Maryland Institute of Contemporary Art in the early 1990s, Hicks cut his teeth as a successful screen printer, before being inspired to branch into stencils. Hicks moved to California to align with the Low Brow movement of the 90s, and concentrate on his fine art stencil work. Hicks relocated to Brooklyn in 2007 to continue his fine art. - Logan´s got an amazing art style. His photorealistic pieces are created with a stencil technique he has taken to perfection. Most people seeing his work for the first time supposes that it´s a printed photo rather than a stencil piece. As Logan is a great artist and we haven´t had a stencil artist before I´m really happy to have him in our line up for 2015, says curator Shai Dahan. - I really like that we could add yet another form of street art. We´ve got a great mix and the line up for this years artists is crowned by a real stencil king in Hicks. I´ve seen a lot of his pieces in photos but so looking forward to see work in progress in Borås. I´m totally convinced that Hicks will be admired by many during this years festival, says project manager Stina Hallhagen. Called a painter with a photographer’s eye, Hicks’ work has largely focused on the perception of the environment, at times humanizing its architectural angles and structures, and at others using its vastness to explore self identity.

  • January 5, 2017 New York, NY
    January 5, 2017 New York, NY - Taglialatella Galleries is pleased to announce an opening reception for artist Logan Hicks, meant to celebrate his numerous achievements of 2016. Highlighting his year, Hicks was commissioned to paint the famous Houston Bowery Wall, located on Houston Street and the Bowery in New York City. The wall was originally painted by Keith Haring in 1982 and has hosted murals in recent years by world-renowned contemporary artists, such as Shepard Fairy, Swoon, and Kenny Scharf. Hicks’ mural, entitled “The Story of My Life”, depicts important people who have influenced his life, from family and friends to colleagues in the arts, all congregating in what appears be a typical crowd on the streets of Manhattan. Hicks’ mural was praised by publications such as The New York Times and The Washington Post, Juxtapoz and Time Out magazines, and lauded as “spectacular” by Gothamist. As tradition mandates, the honor of painting the Houston Bowery Wall will be given to another well-accomplished artist this month, but “The Story of My Life” will live on beyond the temporary mural. Taglialatella Galleries plans to unveil a limited edition version of the iconic image as a hand-sprayed multiple on paper. Each work in the edition of 50 will be unique, spray painted by Hicks using 7 layers of stencils, hand-signed and numbered by the artist. The works will be available for sale through Taglialatella Galleries. For more details, please contact the gallery. The reception will also feature select works on canvas and board, including a larger format spray-painted re-creation of the mural on canvas.

  • SØREN SOLKÆR: SURFACE BOOK and EXHIBITION PROJECT All The
    SØREN SOLKÆR: SURFACE BOOK AND EXHIBITION PROJECT All the portraits in SURFACE show artists who work in the public space. It is a book and exhibition project that was started in August 2012. The artists are photographed in cities across the world with their own art work , in a subjective and staged manner using artificial light and often props and masks. The resulting portrait aims to investigate the relation between the artist and his work and its space in the urban environment. The aim is to portray the most significant figures in public and street art both on the contemporary scene as well as the pioneering figures. The book will be published in February 2015, followed by numerous exhibitions worldwide. So far, I have photographed more than 110 artists , in locations stretching the globe – including Copenhagen, Stavanger, London, Miami, Newcastle, Paris, Berlin, New York, Los Angeles, Berlin, Sydney and Melbourne. SURFACE is an interpretation of the genre as well as the personalities behind the art itself. It is my ambition to present a snapshot of the scene in its current days of transition, whilst also shedding light on the pioneering figures who paved the way. SURFACE isn’t meant as documentation of street art but as is common in my approach, I photograph the artists in a visual interplay with their work, which consequently facilitate evidence of the art works themselves. SURFACE – THE BOOK The book will be a 248 page hardcover coffee table book measuring 24x32 cm, featuring around 140 artists. It will be published by Gingko Press in February 2015 and distributed worldwide.
