IN OR OUT?
====================================
new work by ADAM NEATE, RON ENGLISH and JOSE PARLA

THE EXHIBITION brings together three artists, two from New York and one from London. The title of the show directly relates to the nature of their work, as all three artists have not only have made successful transitions to the International gallery scene but also continue to work on the streets; operating both inside and outside the system.

THE GALLERY specialises in counter-culture and urban artists and is one of the leading proponents of this genre of art; The artists involved in this movement of art are the first to have come solely 'off the streets' something which happened decades ago in the fields of fashion and music. We have been working with artists from this area for 16 years, and represent some of the most important international artists in this field.

☆プロフィール

THE ARTISTS

JOSE PARLA was born in Miami into a family of Cuban exiles, and moved to Puerto Rico at a very early age before returning to Miami again when he was nine. He currently lives and works in New York, and only recently travelled to Cuba for the first time. His work reflects his life and the wanderings of today's urban populations, with their migrations and upheavals. Parl? is concerned with the way that cities function as palimpsests, upon which the experiences of those who pass through them are materially inscribed in decay, in writing, and in the well-worn paths of their inhabitants. His materials and methods of work owe much to architectural construction: cement, wood, vinyl as well traditional art materials like paper, paint, powdered dye, wax, and ink. Parl? describes his work as memory documents; leading these ideas to form a personal philosophy of his work he calls Contemporary Palimpsests. Each painting bears the name of the location or experience from which it draws its source.

ADAM NEATE is a young British artist who became best known for leaving his work in streets. He either hangs his extraordinary cardboard paintings and canvases on existing nails , or simply propped against lampposts for people to find. Over the years he has left over 4000 individually painted pieces on the streets of London alone. His new paintings, which he has been developing recently are powerful portraits, using recycled cardboard boxes as canvases, torn and stapled, creating layers of colour and texture. A new range of t.shirts and clothing from PRADA features Adam's skilful line drawings and paintings.

RON ENGLISH has pirated over one thousand billboards over the last twenty years, replacing existing advertisements with his own hand-painted "subvertisements.". He is widely recognized in the art world as one of the earliest and most celebrated in a line of "culture jammers" ― people who usurp the images of advertising and turn them on their head. In the past, his ridicule has been directed at Coca-Cola, McDonald's, Disney and the cigarette companies, to name a few. One of his most famous lampoonings, from 1999, featured what looked like the Apple Computers logo, the message "Think Different," and a portrait of Charles Manson. It loomed over East 14th Street for about two months. He revels in taking on the establishment, tearing down corporate icons, and unravelling social constructs. His works on canvas, exhibited in this exhibition, contain an equally biting commentary whilst being flawlessly painted in a hyper-real style. His paintings have been exhibited in galleries and museums worldwide and his work included in prominent collections, including the Museum of Contemporary Art in Paris and the Whitney Museum in New York.

BOYS & GIRLS
On wednesday the 27th it's Mysterious Al's miserable birthday. So he's having a killer party at JaguarShoes. It's also the last date I will be officially showing off my exhibition, so come down and get smashed out of your pretty little faces. Have a look at the flyer for what will be a total wreck of a do. Don't forget to make an effort to dress appropriately, or you WILL NOT get in.
