Introducing Rose Quartz & Serenity: Pantone's Colors of 2016

 

Pantone threw a curveball this year, announcing that 2016 will not have one, but two colors of the year. A first in Pantone history, the company revealed that 2016 will be all about Rose Quartz and Serenity (think baby blue and baby pink). While each color leads to immediate associations with a specific gender, the combination of colors aims to challenge conventional gender stereotypes and establish a more fluid approach to color usage and gender identity.

A Global Street Art Story: ARGENTINA

Representing Argentina in A Global Street Art Story is Franco Fasoli aka Jaz.

Today, his work highlights anamorphic figures that are often in scenes of combat.

TAVA à Barcelone

Après un relocalisation à Barcelone, l’artiste Montréalais Antoine Tavaglione (Tava) laisse sa marque dans les rues de la ville espagnole.

Les gens déménagent normalement pour une de deux raisons: le travail ou l'amour. Pour Tava, c’est une combinaison des deux. Avec une prochaine exposition solo à Copenhague, une collaboration des vêtements avec un designer à Dubaï, et d'autres projets d'illustration, Tava a également pris le temps de créé des oeuvres à Barcelone même. L'artiste décrit la ville comme "un bon terrain d'entente pour voyager à toutes ces destinations et de travailler en collaboration plus facilement avec les commissaires et clients.

New Habs mural by Eric Clement

Les mondes du sport et de l'art se rencontrent rarement. Notre exposition « Gol, Carajo » a prouvé que ces deux mondes pouvaient être compatibles, ce qui démontre que l'art et le football peuvent fusionner dans le travail ludique de Ricardo Cavolo. Le mélange inattendu du sport et de l'art est apparu à nouveau au sein du travail d’un autre artiste de la Galerie Station 16, Eric Clément, qui a récemment créé une murale pour les Canadiens de Montréal. Organisé par notre partenaire, LNDMRK, le projet met en évidence le style d'illustration et de bande dessinée de Clément autour du thème du hockey.

Mathieu Connery: vers une abstraction interactive

 

Mathieu Connery's work naturally commands attention with his minimalist, abstract style. The artist, who took part in the 2014 MURAL festival, created numerous works on the sidewalks of Saint Laurent Boulevard. With a non-traditional approach to street art, he diversifies his techniques and textures while maintaining a cohesive style. 

English version by Alexandra Jagodzinski

 

Mathieu Connery retient l’attention avec son style minimaliste abstrait hors du commun. L’artiste, qui faisait partie de la programmation du festival MURAL 2014, a réalisé une œuvre au sol pour l’occasion. Usant d’une approche non-traditionnelle dans le milieu du street art, il diversifie les techniques ainsi que les textures dans ses différentes œuvres tout en conservant le même style, et c’est ce qui, selon lui, constitue sa signature.

Street Artist DAIN Brings Glamour & Graffiti To Your Walls

Using images of Hollywood icons and fashion models, the New York based artist DAIN juxtaposes celebrity icons, creating hybrids that dissociate the familiar to create something surreal.  Coupling male and female identity, playing with proportions and contexts, DAIN unified characters, which simultaneously complements and detracts from the whole. In his correlated images, our idealizations of these famous personalities become empty.  This month, Leanna Valente, author of Art & Fashion, was given the opportunity to interview the artist.

123 Klan

 

You all know the work of 123 Klan, but for those of you that don't... you may find it strangely familiar. It may be because of their significant character and letter style, but more likely it's due to the fact that they are one of the most contracted graphic designers in the urban scene. With clients like Nike, Pepsi, MTV and Vans, it's no wonder their imagery may seem familiar...
