ARTIST BIO
Recognized world-wide for his uniquely imaginative, erotic style of paintings, Hajime Sorayama is a Vargas Award winner, an achievement of highest regard in air-brush artistry.
The sleek chrome aesthetic of robotics in a hyper-sexualized feminine form has been a signature style for Sorayama that has spanned over 4 decades. Considered as one of the most influential pin-up artists of our time, Sorayama's art is displayed in permanent collections at the MOMA, Smithsonian Institute and the US Library of Congress.
ARTIST BIO
New York based artist Daniel Arsham straddles the line between art, architecture and performance. Architecture is a prevalent subject throughout his work; environments with eroded walls and stairs going nowhere, landscapes where nature overrides structures, and a general sense of playfulness within existing architecture.
Simple yet paradoxical gestures dominate his sculptural work: a façade that appears to billow in the wind, a figure wrapped up in the surface of a wall, a contemporary object cast in volcanic ash as if it was found on some future archeological site.
Together with his fellow artist Alex Mustonen, Arsham established the Snarkitecture – a collaborative and experimental practice of creating in the fields of and between art and architecture.
