NEW ARTIST
NICHOLAS DI GENOVA
Drawing on the influence of street art, anime, comic books, and animal compendiums, the work of Nicholas Di Genova features an encyclopedic range of constructed creatures ranging from soft and nurturing to calculating and military. A vast and intense fabricated history acts as a backdrop to the hundreds of interconnected species, families and rival clans that find themselves projecting their habits, relations and environments.
Di Genovas paintings on mylar highlight his skill with line and his ability to manipulate colour. Always intense and intricately executed, Di Genovas work rivals the quality of any fine art painter while firmly establishing itself on the fringes of contemporary art.
His first print "Upright Shepard Waddler" will be released to handmadeposters next week!

Nicholas is actually a girl. She couldn't speak until a week after her 71st birthday. There are rumors that Nicholas is a collab with Bugs from Miss Bugs and Antony Hirst. 3 of the unsigned edition of 100 of the new print are rumored to be signed

That's stretching it a bit, don't you think? A 71 yesr-old girl? ;D
Some really lovely bits on her site. Love that series of ferocious animals, but they seem to be very small for something I would imagine has a lot of detail in (10.5 x 7.5in)
Any idea of what sort of prices the prints are?

NEW ARTIST - Nicholas Di Genova - HMP, by Heavyconsumer on Dec 6, 2008 4:22:16 GMT 1, I found looking through the work on his site enjoyable - It's original, distinctive and eccentric (in a good way). Not sure I'd buy any prints, but I find the work interesting to look at and certainly wouldn't mind seeing a few OGs in the flesh if the chance ever arises. Interested to hear what anyone who does buy a piece of work thinks of it up close.
