SWEET LIFE | Pez | Solo Exhibition , by midnightmouse on Apr 3, 2018 13:46:19 GMT 1, SWEET LIFE | Pez | Solo Exhibition | Apr. 20 – May. 05 2018 avenuedesarts.org/art/sweetlifepezsoloexhibition
Avenue des Arts is honored to present “Sweet Life”, a solo exhibition by the artist PEZ. Opening on April 20th, the exhibition will feature more than 20 works from the artist, including original canvases, sculptures, 1 print release.
Artist Statement
« Sweet Life »: a first retrospective that encompasses the four ages of life through my favourite series.
It all starts with the Dream Series which evokes childhood in a satiric way, at the crossroads of black humour and offbeat daydreams. The Distroy Series, with its references to pop culture and video games heroes, is intended as a snapshot of adolescence. The “Green pieces” then take you into adulthood, anticipating a disenchanted world and questioning our ecological legacy. Finally, the Pixel Series concludes this exhibition. The material world disaggregates into a cloud of pixels and becomes abstract, symbolizing the journey to death.
LONDON APRIL 20th – MAY 5th, 2018
Opening reception: April 20th, 2018 from 6pm to 10pm HOXTON ARCHES – 402 Cremer Street LONDON E2 8HD
April 20th to May 5th, 2018 from 11am to 6pm

SWEET LIFE | Pez | Solo Exhibition , by Schrödinger's Chat on Apr 16, 2018 10:30:20 GMT 1, Going to try and make it. It will be great to see his work in the flesh.
A was a little disappointed to see that it is a retrospective, so I imagine we will have seen most of the images before in one form or another.
Nevertheless I'm sure they look amazing in person!

Gallery seem pretty much useless! Never reply to emails and can't organise a preview list! For what could of been a big London show for PEZ, he should of got someone else to host it for him.
As far as I know, it's 20 originals and a print
