OPENING TONIGHT: Bortusk Leer's MONSTERS NYC--featuring a new mural outside!

UPDATE: Just a few minutes ago, Ari posted the definitive picture of the FINISHED mural...here it is, love you Bortusk Leer! This is gonna be iconic:

TONIGHT, starting at 6pm, O My People, is the opening of Bortusk Leer's two-week show 'MONSTERS IN NEW YORK', featuring musical entertainment from his homies Mike Borgia & The Problems! It's going to be a fun and life-affirming party, so we hope to see you there!

BUT EVEN MORE exciting is the fact that Bortusk took advantage of the pretty weather today to paint the first mural in our permission wall project!!! WOW, how major, how very, very major for us and the neighborhood, I daresay. Here is some timelapse of the mural in progress...thanks Bortusk, thanks MONSTERS IN NEW YORK!

Have a great night everyone!

The Superchief Gallery At Culturefix Presents:

Bortusk Leer

MONSTERS IN NEW YORK

Solo Exhibition

Exhibit Dates: 6/10 through 6/16

Opening Reception: 6/14 6-11pm

We are happy to present the first New York solo show by UK artist Bortusk Leer. Bortusk burst onto the street art scene in 2007 with naively spray-painted and marker penned psychedelic monsters and characters. These characters have become a common sight on the streets of London, Amsterdam, Barcelona and countless other European cities. They have made their way around the globe by air, sea and land to far flung places such as India, Australia, Cambodia, New Zealand and of course the good old USA, (where they have popped up in New York, Seattle and Alaska to name but a few.)

They are always having fun in whatever surroundings they might find themselves!

Bortusk has named his style “art comedy” and dedicates himself along with a growing team of admirers andpasters to spreading the smiley faced, lolling tongued, and googly eyed LOVE around the world. Bortusk’s heavily satirical work and recognizable paste ups using newspaper as the support and method of spreading his own message, highlights an ongoing concern to challenge the idea of traditional mass media and mass produced objects. These acts of mischievous sabotage using obsolete objects and materials represent in fact another unconventional choice of his to use low-tech procedures to emphasis the often-ephemeral nature and lifespan of these randomly applied paste-ups within our urban landscape.

With this show you are invited to experience it as an opportunity to step out of the doom and gloom of your daily routines. An exhilarating mixture between a funfair, cartoon and rave party feel, the show’s only intention is to put a smile on your face and brighten up your day!
