WESR & JADE : Behind the eyes

April 24, 2012

In May, Pretty Portal features the exhibition "Behind the Eyes" (In the streets of Lima) by the two Peruvian Urban Artists Danny Figueroa aka WESR and Jonathan Rivera Enriques aka JADE.



Both belong to the founders of the Peruvian Urban Art and Streetart scene. Their works are dominated by figurative elements with bright colours, which grace many houses of the Peruvian capital Lima. WESR and JADE find inspiration for their work in the Peruvian culture and folklore. The traditional Ukuku masks are continually found in the works of WESR.

WESR regularly commutes between Peru and his newly adopted home, Berlin. In recent years, he painted large murals on the Stroke Artfair Cityleaks Festival and showed his works on exhibitions in Berlin and Munich. For JADE, the exhibition at Pretty Portal Gallery will be his first visit to Germany.

In the exhibition "Behind the Eyes", the two artists show drawings and illustrations on paper and acrylic paintings on canvas.

Introducing new artists: SWEET TOOF and ORTICANOODLES

April 16, 2012

Sweet Toof

Sweet Toof’s work starts with and evolves out of his street art in the streets of London and Bristol. Equally disciplined in traditional painting and printmaking techniques, Sweet Toof masterfully blends urban detritus with bygone decadence. Fusing ancient methods with modern materials, Sweet Toof’s imagery combines layers of historical and current cultural references to create unconventional, iconoclastic art that is at once both traditional and contemporary.
