EVENT PAGE

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Our newest exhibition, includes a roster of Norwegian artists who have a direct relationship to graffiti, street art and related urban cultures and whose work, with intent or not, challenges the traditional relationship between citizens and the city, art and commerce, insiders and outsiders.

The show seeks in many ways to explore the variety of styles and techniques the work of these artists have to offer, ranging from the stencils of Martin Whatson, AFK, Argus and Hama Woods to Nipper’s Mission Directives, DOTDOTDOT’s recent detailed works, NIMI and Sinnsykshit’s intricate paintings to Skurk’s newest project ‘The Observer’.

Whether it is a sticker, wheat-paste, tag, piece, mural, stencil or urban intervention, whether it is produced for a festival, sanctioned or unsanctioned, funded or not, it is an act of appropriate citizenship at a time of political, environmental and economic crises. So, yes, Urban Art Norway! Come check it out!

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Featured artists:

AFK (NO), Argus (NO), Atle Østrem (NO), DOTDOTDOT (NO), Fru Bugge (NO), Hama Woods (NO), Jan Olav Forberg (NO), Martin Whatson (NO), NIMI (UK/NO), Nina Ghafari (IR/NO), Nipper (UK/NO), Sinnsykshit (NO), Skurk (NO), Wan Ho (CH/NO) & more

WIP WIP!! Something is cooking! HAMA WOODS busy cutting details for a new print to be released as a part of the URBAN ART Norway show! Stay tuned, more info coming shortly!!

[Reed_Projects]

Skurk paid us a little visit yesterday and dropped a new strong series of works from their ongoing project ‘The Observer’ to be included in the show. Here is a couple of in progress shots along with a brief description for the project.

“Every single print in The Observer series has been hand pressed from the original woodcut. It’s a highly manual process: chop, plane, sand, burn, ink, press, conceal & sign. No computers involved. These trees have all lived through (observed) a significant event in human history.
The prints seek to capture these unique moments in time. A hand written quote has been concealed within each print, at the actual point in time the event took place. Count the rings. It will help you find your place in the larger historical context.
Due to the hand-printed nature of each piece, no two are exactly alike”

Come take a closer look next week or mail sales@nuartgallery.no for interest

Disse trykkene er skikkelig flotte og man kan se det manuelle arbeidet som er gjort. De tar seg godt ut på veggen rammet inn i eikeramme. Ønsker Skurk og NuArt lykke til med utstilling. Observerserien er etter min mening det mest gjennomførte Skurk har gjort til dags dato.

Introducing Sandie Carol who will be joining the line-up for our upcoming show!

Sandie is a French-Norwegian artist, based in Vitry sur Seine, France. After working as a photographer for two decades, she realised the digital colours didn’t give her the same pleasure as the beginning and stepped into a new way of expression through photography by creating her own colours that she now uses to decorate her images. Her work is therefore multimedia, mixing photography, acrylics and spray cans.
She has participated in several street art events in France and Norway, with street artists such as C215 (FR), Nimi (UK/NO), AFK (NO), Skurk (NO) and this opened up for a new artistic expression, made with heart and hands in the streets. One of her works in Vitry « Fjord Dream » appears in the Parisian street art guide «Guide du Street Art à Paris» and she is represented in contemporary urban art galleries in Norway and in France. She is currently based in Vitry, France.

Here is what French artist C215 says about her work “Sandie’s work reflects her sensitivity, her poetic vision of the world, which she veils with a pictorial layer while unveiling the dreamlike side of reality”. Give Sandie a warm welcome to the Gallery and come check out her work on Thursday!
