NEO INDIGENOUS Opens at Crewest Gallery THIS SATURDAY 7.7.12

Victor "MARKA27" Quiñonez brings his critically acclaimed new body of work

NEO INDIGENOUS

to Crewest Gallery

110 Winston St. Los Angeles, CA

Please join us for the Opening Reception: THIS Saturday, July 7, 2012 from 7-10pm

 

Neo Indigenous celebrates Marka27's highly-anticipated return to Los Angeles. Representing a shift in the artist's cultural consciousness, Neo Indigenous embodies Marka27's quest to bridge past with present, illustrating his yearning to bring deeper meaning to both old and new art forms. By juxtaposing ancient elements with contemporary design aesthetics, Marka27 reveals both a connection and a disjuncture in the process. Challenging viewers to confront the existing practice of commodifying art, the exhibit leaves a lasting impression-- a mark Marka27 has predicated his reputation on.

Using multiple mediums such as paintings, collectible vinyl toys and speakers, silk screen panels, and prints, Neo Indigenous is a sensory feast of the artist's ability to float seamlessly between varying art forms. As a special treat and tribute to a city he once called home, never-before-seen works will be unveiled and the artist himself will create a live installation piece. Having worked with clients such as Pioneer Electronics, VH1, Disney, Scion, and Kidrobot, Marka27's LA premiere is the go-to event of the summer!
