This event has ended.
Krause Gallery presents the first solo show by two internationally known artists CB Hoyo who resides in Parts unknown of Europe and Thirsty Bstrd who resides in Paris, France.
Both artists have mastered the “Real Fake”, but once you buy one you will feel like a “real” collector.
CB Hoyo was born in 1995 in Havana, Cuba. At a young age, he immigrated to the Dominican Republic, and now lives in Europe.
His artistic process began as a child, when he started interpreting the world through his paintings. Over the past few years, his work has increased in stature.
A self-trained artist, CB Hoyo continually produces works that celebrate life itself. Fresh, colorful, and fun are three words that easily describe his creations.
Working with any medium on any material, the artist uses a mixture of art historical trends but always incorporates his unique voice.
CB Hoyo is making a proper mark on the current art scene. Some of his works are already exhibited in private and public collections in 6 continents.
Thirsty Bstrd is a french visual artist from Paris, using spray paint, stencils, stickers and videos. His work mainly consists in making satirical comments about society, politics and consumerism, by « using powerful symbols and popular images and making them look funny or weird. The purpose being to provoke and generate an emotion.»
For a few years, he was the artistic director of his own creative agency based in Paris. In addition to his inventive works for companies, he worked as a curator and organizer of urban art exhibitions in Paris and Los Angeles, showing his own art at every opportunity.
His work features in solo and group shows and numerous collections in Paris, UK, Singapore and USA. His artworks, from stencils to stickers, can be seen by a worldwide audience in the streets.
Mostly composed of eye-catching images and provocative statements Thirsty Bstrd’s magnetic art pieces often act as clever satirical commentaries about social and political issues and consumerist culture. By merging ingenious statements with paradoxical images, Thirsty Bstrd creates artworks that are truly fascinating and thought-provoking.
