CONTEMPORARY MASTERS
"At the root of all my work is the recognition that we tend to take most of our experience for granted." - Mel Bochner
Arton Contemporary is pleased to present a selection of works by contemporary masters: Mel Bochner, Bel Fullana, Damien Hirst, Kaws, Harland Miller, Hunt Slonem, Andy Warhol. Each of these artists offer a unique perspective on the concept of icons and ideals.
We invite you to join us in celebrating how these artists come together to offer their audience impactful and creative perspectives through their art. Bochner's and Miller's text-based works reveal the layered meanings of words, while Slonem's joyful bunnies and Fullana's expressive figures add vibrant symphonies of color, line, and texture. Warhol's exploration of popular American consumer culture, media, and fame resulted in the creation of some of the most recognizable artwork made in the last century. Kaws challenges the categories of 'high' and 'low' art and blurs the lines between commercial and fine art. Over the past two decades, Miller has developed a satirical approach to reimagined book covers, blending his love of words and art.
This collection offers a variety of original works and print based works, and marks a rare opportunity to experience these influential artists together. Their works, though distinct in approach and execution, share a fundamental interest in systems of knowledge and representation. Together, they create a powerful commentary on how we understand and categorize the world around us.
