\u201c For this special \u2018Juxtapozed\u2019 exhibition I wanted to paint one of my strongest and most iconic characters \u2018The DirtyLand\u2019 . It\u2019s been a long time since I\u2019ve painted her, the ruler & leader of this DirtyLand universe I\u2019ve created. I felt it was time to resurrect the queen \u2018D\u2019 with a new direction & color palette, building intense contrasts, and elevating the attention to detail. She speaks loud in her pose and wicked stare bringing you into her dirty world saying ‘It’s Never Over! “<\/em><\/p>\n

For those that have always wanted to get one of Viveros\u2019 iconic \u2019DirtyLand\u2019 warriors don\u2019t miss this opportunity!<\/p>\n

ABOUT JUXTAPOZED:<\/strong>
\nNow widely considered the largest and longest running art movement in history, the New Contemporary Art Movement encompasses everything from Street Art and Muralism to Pop Surrealism and Hyperrealism.
\nJuxtapozed, a show title drawn from the magazine of the same name in the imperative tense, celebrates the legacy made possible by Juxtapoz. The access the publication has facilitated since the early 90s to a widely cast variety of media and expressions, has shaped the movement itself and preserved its continued relevance. Founded in San Francisco in 1994 by Robert Williams, Craig Stecyk, Greg Escalante, Eric Swenson and Fausto Vitello, Juxtapoz evolved from the intent to foster and support the art and culture of the underground. The magazine provided an alternative voice and narrative as a counterpart to the dominant New York-centric discourse of contemporary art and featured artists who straddled the boundaries between “high” and “low” culture. Aligning itself with the aesthetics of contemporary street culture, figurative art, California car culture, gig posters, tattoos, graphics, psychedelia, and comics, the publication became a conduit and forum for an entirely new generation of artists who were latching on to a populist visual vernacular.<\/p>\n

Curated by Andrew Hosner of Thinkspace Gallery, Gary Pressman of Copro Gallery, and Adjunct Curator of the Fort Wayne Museum of Art, Josef Zimmerman<\/p>\n

Opening Reception:<\/strong>
\nFriday, April 21st 7-10PM<\/p>\n
