GR Gallery will host ASVP’s “Super Matter” at its New York venue.“Super Matter,” is a cutting-edge solo show featuring the urban art collaborative duo ASVP, revealing for the first time a completely new body of artworks. The show will unveil 18 fresh works including paintings, prints and site-specific installation, expressly designed for this exhibition and manufactured to throw the viewer into a mesmerizing cosmos defined by bright colors and bits and pieces of recognizable icons, inserted in a mysterious context that stimulates our curiosity, says the gallery.The exhibition aims to investigate and present for the first time in a solo show the latest artistic output of this internationally known and brilliant artistic duo ASVP, who are not simply characterized by a strong Urban Art and New Pop Culture influence, but dare to go beyond these boundaries and through a witty and outermost visual aesthetic, break down the restriction among the familiar and the unknown.“The new imagery breaks down the omnipotent institutions and individuals into something new and unconstrained. It takes familiar elements of super heroes and icons and reimagines them as shapes of expressive energy with dynamic strokes, bold colors and movement,” says the gallery. “For this hip new project, ASVP prepared a startling plan, redesigning GR gallery’s visual layout through bulky and colorful wall paintings, and other unanticipated operations, that will strongly impact the visitor and fully match the outline of the new artworks.”Brooklyn-based ASVP is a artistic collaboration between Simon Grendene and Victor Anselmi founded in 2008. The duo is best known for creating graphic images with nods to advertising, pop and comic book culture, juxtaposed with layers of organic abstraction. A combination of painting and printmaking remain central to their approach.The exhibition will be on view from July 25 through August 19, 2018, at GR Gallery, 255 Bowery New York, NY 10002.For details, visit: http://www.gr-gallery.comClick on the slideshow for a sneak peek at the exhibition.http://www.blouinartinfo.com Founder: Louise Blouin
