Re-creating Dreams in Digital Artworks with @thegentlemanbronco

To dive into James’ dream worlds and discover more of his art, follow @thegentlemanbronco on Instagram.

“I have really vivid dreams and I remember them all the time,” says James Livitski (@thegentlemanbronco), a self-taught graphic designer from Toronto who gets the ideas for his art while sleeping soundly. Most of James’ works are digital re-creations of his dreams – futuristic scenarios inspired by unknown spheres of the universe, retro photography, vintage pinup girls and music. “You can put a headset on, close your eyes and the tune takes you to a whole new world,” James explains, hoping that his art might touch people in a similar way. “I create it to take you away from anything that’s happening for that one second in your life, and make you feel something you’ve never felt, and make you see something you could only imagine in your wildest dreams and make it your reality.”

Editor’s Pick opens Feb 20:

“A New Republic”  Kehinde Wiley

Brooklyn Museum, 200 Eastern Parkway, Brooklyn, NY

Wiley’s signature portraits of everyday men and women riff on specific paintings by Old Masters, replacing the European aristocrats depicted in those paintings with contemporary black subjects, drawing attention to the absence of African Americans from historical and cultural narratives. The exhibition includes an overview of the artist’s prolific fourteen-year career and features sixty paintings and sculptures.  - thru May 24
