Vintage telephone booth bank from Shae (aka Miss Lullie Vintage, who really knows how to pick a gift!) and possibly the cutest little 70s notecard set ever made!
This series of paintings combines elements of my work from the past 10 years into some of my most strangely and intensely personal work to date. I have a feeling my girls may have gone feral for good...
The first preview of these girls will be at the Bestial show this weekend in Barcelona...
Iguapop Gallery Presents: "BESTIAL" A Group Show Curated by Miss Van Opening Thursday July 5th Exhibition runs through August 4th
For this exhibition Miss Van has selected 15 international artists:
Jeremy Fish, Aiko, Mike Giant, Herbert Baglione, Fawn Gehweiler, Ciou, Mademoiselle Kat, Landry & Limbo, Kev Grey, Nano 4841, Poppy Jabianski, Angelique Houtkamp, Sunny Buick, Kid Acne, Junko Mizuno, Miss Van.
Fawn Gehweiler's signature character based paintings, installations and works on paper have exhibited in galleries around the world and appear in a number of prominent private collections. Originally from Hawaii and currently based in the Pacific Northwest, her work combines the influence of a bohemian upbringing, sartorial escapism, and her own family tree.
Once described by The Face magazine as "the visual equivalent of candyfloss peppered with broken glass, delicious yet dangerous" and widely considered
a major influence in the recent explosion of young feminine art in the United States, her work hinges on a delicate balance of past and present, building obsessive narratives through personal artifacts that reflect the imaginary worlds of little girls, treading the fine line between wide eyed innocence and dark fairy tales.
