The force is strong with this one. On June 1, Artist/graphic designer PaperFrank will debut new works in an exhibition entitled “Afro Picks and Bunny Suits 2″ at Archive Gallery. All work and merchandise will be for sale. If you’re in Atlanta and want to know where the art scene is heading, you need to make it out to this show.
Atlanta based artist PaperFrank has been killing the arts scene in Atlanta. From RockSmith Clothing to City of Ink his signature style, a mix of neo pop and anime, is everywhere. You Mad?
Atlanta based painter/graphic designer Paper Frank is doing a damn good job of permeating the Atlanta art scene. Bright, engaging and youthful, I was introduced to Frank’s work by Scarlett Spade of CocainePretti, and since then I’ve enjoyed working with him on events (Super Pop, Tabloid and Art Nouveau’s Three year Anniversary Party) and watching his career flourish. Now an apprentice at Atlanta based tattoo shop City of Ink, the self-taught artist is working on a upcoming solo show. Paper Frank is Art Nouveau Magazine’s Artist of the Week. Take a closer look at his work below. Photos courtesy of Paul Abraham Photography.
This past Thursday, we celebrated three years of Art Nouveau Magazine with some very special guests. Brooklyn based rapper Theophilus London made his debut at the show will also featured showstopping performances by Tendaberry, theDOLLDAZE, Rahbi (aided by two strippers, yes strippers!), Ethereal, Aware and many many more. The scene was set to look like a circus featuring visuals from Atlanta’s visual army of GreatEclectic, Sean Fahie, Paper Frank and Corinne Stevie. Check out this video recap shot by K.D.
We told you we had something big planned for Art Nouveau Magazine’s three year anniversary. Feb 24, at the Deefor Centre in Atlanta, Celebrate this Brand of Insanity with us and a few special guests. For the first time, Theophilus London will travel all the way from his home of Brooklyn, NY to bless Atlanta with his signature mix of old school soul and electro hip-hop.
