The store URL is http://store.onefiftyexhibition.com/ the show goes officially live at 1.50pm Pacific Daylight time (LA time) tomorrow. Make sure you don’t sleep, the show is only online for 150 minutes!!
Top local artists (and members of world-renown graffiti crew TMD) Askew One, Elliot Francis Stewart (Deus) and Gary Silipa (Ryze) are holding a trio-exhibition that takes the ʻONE FIFTYʼ title to the extreme. The exhibition theme runs exclusively around the number ONE FIFTY. There will be ONE FIFTY pieces of art exhibited; each piece will be ONE FIFTYmm x ONE FIFTYmm; each item costs ONE FIFTY dollars; exhibition runs for ONE FIFTY minutes.
Itʼs a rare treat to have artists of this calibre exhibiting affordable works around such an exciting and novel concept. While ASKEW ONE multi-tasks in video making, publishing and graphic design, heʼs always pushing the boundaries amongst his NZ contemporaries to strive for international-level recognition in graffiti, canvas painting and large-scale public murals.
For ELLIOT FRANCIS STEWART, this show marks the return of a true inner city icon. Having taken a hiatus from exhibiting a significant body of work for the past five years, Elliot is definitely one of the most talented illustrators in Grey Lynn - he may even be the best in the world.
GARY SILIPA is a fine example of an artist starting out in a conventional ʻUniversity graduate/working classʼ mold to please normal thinking society, to breaking free in 2011 and chasing a passion for better ʻselfcompleteʼ living. Silipaʼs work portrays life-stories, challenges and personal successes to keep him going and true to his path in life.
