About Agostino Iacurci

Agostino Iacurci (b.1986) is a contemporary visual artist working with painting, murals, sculpture, drawings, and then welcoming space through installations. Originally from Foggia (southern Italy), Agostino’s art practice began at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome and then moved to various places, the last being Berlin for six years. Until 2022 he was in New York for a residency at ISCP (International Studio & Curatorial Program) in Brooklyn.

Iacurci has worked extensively in the public art context making large murals, alternating them with more traditional studio practice, experimenting with various mediums, and collaborating with other professionals, artisans, and crafters.

Often driven by a site-specific attitude, Iacurci manages heterogeneous materials, constantly manipulating them. By doing this, he generates images in which he willingly recounts cultural history, emotional memories, literary references, and tales.

NFT Art | How To Create and Where To Sell

hueandeye — Fri, 15 Jul 2022 17:07:10 +0000

As NFTs can be associated with physical works (as with the Bansky piece before the fire) or can exist alone in the digital realm, this flexibility gives excellent monetization opportunities that will require creative interest without necessarily significant technical knowledge.

Besides, since their high traceability facilitates the authenticity and source of the work, this feature, in turn, makes the job easier to buy, sell, and trade.

Everybody heard of Christie’s auction of an NFT art, a purely digital collage, for US$69.4 million, with an NFT to “guarantee” authenticity.

This ownership information is stored on the blockchain with a specific ID and linked to unique metadata. It became part of an algorithm.

More interesting is that NFTs’ value derives from owning the whole entity.

The non-divisible nature of NFTs also helps with ownership rights and verifying provenance.

Besides associating the artwork to an NFT, software code called smart contracts may regulate aspects like managing transferability and paying royalties.

Therefore, NFTs can be extended beyond the sole ownership and transferability and include various other applications and functionality, like linking the NFT to another digital asset.

For example, one may write on a smart contract to automatically distribute a portion of the amounts paid for any subsequent sale of the NFT back to the original owner to give the owner the ability to recognize the minor marketplace’s benefits.

CAN MY CONTENT BE AN NFT?

Probably yes!

Indeed, almost anything is a digital asset to link to an NFT. Today, there are very few restrictions of what content may or may not be getting “tokenized” and turned into an NFT art. The technology is still in its early days. It’s a great moment to experiment with the medium with your artwork as the market for digital art continuously grows its demand.

Digital art, songs, memes, and even startups are on sale on NFT marketplaces. And the best is only yet to come.

HOW TO CREATE AN NFT?

You won’t need a total technical understanding of the cryptocurrency or blockchain systems to start with NFT crypto art. It’s crucial to mention that NFTs are mainly part of the Ethereum blockchain.

The following three steps are a summary of what you will need to commence selling and trading art with NFTs:

Set up an Ethereum Wallet
Purchase a small amount of Ethereum.
Connect your wallet to an NFT Marketplace.

WHAT IS AN NFT MARKET?

There are several websites that you can submit your NFT art. You may think of these sites as NFT art galleries. The popular term for these websites is “NFT marketplaces”.

WHERE TO SELL NFT ART?

The answer is “NFT marketplaces”.

Here’s also a list of the most popular NFT art marketplaces that lists NFT art for sale:

Top 10 Emerging Artists to Follow in 2022 | Hue&Eye

hueandeye — Sat, 09 Apr 2022 14:52:38 +0000

Overview | The Emerging Artists to Follow in 2022

Over the last two years, the world has seen artists exploit their talents for deeper topics. Indeed the pandemic was central, and themes such as human feelings, sustainability, and physical or mental health were at the core of artists’ conditions. This 2022 is the year of a back-to-normality state of mind, which is already visible in many recent works of painters, photographers, and illustrators worldwide.

Experts predict a return to figurative painting in 2022, thanks to several high-level representative exhibitions opening in museums across the world in the early months of the year and the need to take advantage of the emotional capabilities of painting post-pandemic.

Following is a selection curated by Hue&Eye listing the Top 10 Emerging Artists to Follow in 2022.

Camille Walala

Known for her ambitious, large-scale, and explosively colorful interventions in public spaces, Camille Walala uses the man-made landscape as a platform for disseminating positivity. Her work encompasses full-facade murals, immersive 3D installations, street art, interiors, and set design – characterized by a fusion of bold colors and playful geometric patterns. Since her ‘Dream Come True Building’ burst onto the Shoreditch streetscape in 2015 and thrust her into the spotlight, Camille and her creative producer, Julia Jomaa, have been engaged in an increasingly bold roster of international projects. These have included collaborations with leading global brands – such as LEGO, for whom she created the HOUSE OF DOTS; the creative direction of the groundbreaking Mauritian hotel SALT of Palmar; and a slew of major installations for events like NYC’s WantedDesign and London Design Festival – including Walala Lounge, as a complete suite of semi-permanent street furniture that transformed South Molton Street, Mayfair, into a corridor of color. Camille finds inspiration in community and collaboration, and the power of color and pattern to transform atmospheres, elevate moods, and spark positivity.

@ Camille Walala

Mongezi Ncaphayi

Born in 1983 in Benoni, South Africa, Mongezi Ncaphayi lives and works in Cape Town. Mongezi Ncaphayi uses various materials to explore social questions of politics, power, and rampant inequities in his abstract paintings and prints. Ncaphayi’s work has won him numerous honors, including the prestigious Absa L’Atelier Gerard Sekoto Award, the Africa First Art Prize, as well as residencies at the Thami Mnyele Foundation in Amsterdam, The Ampersand Foundation in New York, the Mixit Print Studio Boston, and the Nirox Foundation in Johannesburg, among others. His work is in the collections of the Smithsonian National Museum of African Art, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, the Thami Mnyele Foundation in Amsterdam, the Bibliothéque Nationale de France in Paris, France, the Ampersand Foundation in London, and the Luciano Benetton Foundation, in Treviso, Italy, among other institutions and private collections.

@ Mongezi Ncaphayi

Xie Lei

Currently living and working in Paris, in his paintings, Xie Lei emphasizes ambiguity and sensory details to create environments for viewers to enter and explore. Often producing monochromatic works in a dark palette of mixed colors, Xie Lei can perhaps be best described as a symbolist painter. Ancient rituals, traditional Chinese imagery, or Western mythology form the subjects of many paintings. His work is included in public and private collections, such as Musée d’Art Contemporain du Val-de-Marne (MAC VAL) and Burger Collection. Notable solo exhibitions were staged at Yishu 8 Beijing, Galerie Anne de Villepoix Paris, Palais des Beaux-Arts Paris, Z Gallery Arts Vancouver. Besides, his works were included in group shows at MAC VAL, the Musée national de l’histoire de l’immigration, Langen Foundation, and White Space. He exhibits in a solo presentation at artgenève, presented by the French gallery Semiose. He is also a 2022 artist-in-residence at the Boghossian Foundation in Brussels.

@ Xie Lei

Deborah Segun

Born in 1994, Nigerian multidisciplinary artist Deborah Segun is garnering attention for her large-scale figurative works that celebrate the beauty and nuances of womanhood. With an intuitive gaze, Segun deconstructs traditional representations of women, reimagining the female figure using smooth, rich curves and exaggerated silhouettes that recall the modernist vocabulary of Cubism. Segun’s intimate portraits capture moments of joy and acceptance, evoking a sense of hope by employing fresh compositions and fluid strokes of blue and earth-tone acrylic.

@ Deborah Segun

Lefty Out There

Known for his polymorph designs, Lefty Out There is a pioneering multidisciplinary artist and illustrator. Lefty’s goal is to ‘cover everything.’ Launching his career as a street artist in Chicago, the artist’s current practice combines the craft of graffiti with technologically advanced processes like LED boxes, computers, and laser cutters. His ambitious murals and daring canvases have caught the attention of prestigious brands across the globe, including Nike, Adidas, Facebook, and Google.

@ LeftyOutThere

Cooper

Born and raised in Evansville, Indiana, Andrew Cooper – now more widely known as Cooper – is an American visual artist. Emerging on the art scene in 2018, Cooper is a Los Angeles-based artist who paints nature-inspired canvases.

Cooper’s subject matter and vibrant style are the perfect antidotes to post-pandemic blues, with the art world taking a revived interest in figurative art. With physical art fairs and exhibitions seemingly returning to normal, there is no longer a need for art to be digital or geared towards digital consumption. Utilizing a diverse and vibrant palette, the vivid colors Cooper uses are reminiscent of 1990s post-Modernist pop, with the artist taking inspiration from David Hockney and Jonas Wood. Although only in his twenties, the artist has already exhibited in shows and art fairs across America, including Miami, New York, and Los Angeles.

@ Cooper

Rachel Jones

Working in painting, installation, sound, and performance, Rachel Jones explores a sense of self as a visual, visceral experience. In her paintings, she grapples with the challenges of finding visual means to convey abstract, existential concepts. In depicting the psychological truths of being and the emotions these engender, abstraction becomes a way of expressing the intangible. The artist Rachel Jones has described her own work as an ‘exegesis of color’, and certainly, her work presents a vibrantly colorful palette of textured, abstract forms that collide with one another as a kaleidoscopic assemblage. Allowing form to take on a metaphorical role, her paintings use ‘motifs and color as a way to communicate ideas about the interiority of Black bodies and their lived experience’. Expressive, intricate, and pulsating with energy, the titles of her artworks – A Sliced Tooth, Red Shaped Mouths, and I’m Not So Clean – often reveal a wry connection with the corporeal.

@ Rachel Jones

Dorothy Sing Zhang

Dorothy Sing Zhang has always been interested in composite and constructed images. However, the emerging photographer’s photos are hard to describe; they appear suspended in enigmatic narratives that pause at tense moments. It makes sense that the evolution of Sing Zhang’s practice has involved filmmaking. She studied in Denmark, taught by Jørgen Leth, Lars Von Trier, and Thomas Vinterberg – while simultaneously developing her fine art background at the Slade in London, where she is currently based.

@dorothysingzhang

Hugo Yu

Inventive compositions of primary colors are the common thread throughout Hugo Yu‘s work. With a BFA from the School of Visual Arts in New York, Yu’s quickly created a recognizable visual language. While there is a structure to his practice that Yu connects to his upbringing in Shanghai, Yu leaves a playful openness for viewers’ interpretations, inspired by his current home in New York. In 2022, Yu took on a photographic marathon of creating portraits of ten architectural studios with exciting results. A recent addition to the emerging photographer’s practice is sculpture as a natural expansion of his clever still life sets.

@ Hugo Yu

Bettina Pittaluga

Bettina Pittaluga is a French-Uruguayan photographer currently based in Paris. A former sociology student with a background working as a reporter, Pittaluga’s interest in people is palpable in her portraits. She likes to think that she photographs beauty.

Her work essentially responds to the homogeneous representation of humanity that she sees in the media. She thinks it is an entirely unequal vision of the human race, the exact unequal representation that is mainly responsible for racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, fatphobia, and the rejection of old age. It is crucial for her to do everything to continue deconstructing this hegemony and committing to invoking all these fights.

Karen Lederer | Cryptic Narrative Paintings

Hue & Eye — Sun, 02 May 2021 11:02:56 +0000

Karen Lederer was born in New York in 1986. She first received her BFA in Printmaking and Drawing at the Sam Fox School of Fine Art and Design at the Washington University in 2008, to then go for an MFA in Printmaking at the Rhode Island School of Design in 2012. Her style comes out from a diversity of art source and inspiration, both contemporary and traditional, to bring her printmaking background together with a delicate awareness of graphic art.

“I combine the subtle gradients of monoprinting with the gestural touch of painting”, Lederer says about her art flow. Karen usually begins her layouts out of a printed area which she will then define with paint. Her paintings portray a cryptic narrative that emerges through layers of patterns and objects, with hints of juxtaposed inspiration such as Matisse’s still-life paintings, Picasso’s ceramics together with Instagram aesthetic and contemporary print advertisements, to finally give a contradictory feeling of desire and discomfort. The anonymous body parts present in most of her visuals asserts the presence and perspective of the artist, and the close up of an Instagram image or commercial product depicts a connection with the contemporary daily routine in a contradictory combination with some other object that recalls a surreal approach.

Karen was recently a SIP Award recipient from the Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop Program at the Elizabeth Foundation for the Arts. Her work has then been featured in various American publications such as New American Paintings and Studio Visit Magazine and has also already participated in some important art shows in the US. Karen now works out of her studio in Crown Heights, Brooklyn.

MATT PHILLIPS: POETIC NOTIONS

Hue & Eye — Wed, 05 Aug 2020 10:12:54 +0000

ABOUT MATT PHILLIPS

Artist Matt Phillips currently lives and works in Brooklyn, NY. His practice observes and expresses the modernist abstraction, folk art and African textile aesthetic, to create colorful and poetic paintings.

Phillips has definitely notions of pattern, decorative and textile design to recreate, through geometric forms, a whole spectrum of emotions, such as the feeling of a sunny day at the river mixed up with hints of a soft enigma.

MATT PHILLIP’S TECHNIQUE

Matt’s technique is recognizable through the choice of painting with a pigment and silica blend, which through the brush stroke will dry quickly. Phillips begins each layout as mapped geometrical formations to become playful with common structures such as a grid, to depict the quiet beauty of old memories expressed also with the soft and contrasting color palette he generally goes for.

He says about the interaction between the image and the support: “I like that the image itself is a form. As you start to make the painting, you’re given the rectangle, but that it doesn’t necessarily have to live within that arbitrary shape. It also comes out of an interest in quilts and textiles where you have these image/objects but. The object itself when you put it on the wall is contending with real gravity. So, I think about how would this thing feel on its own outside the rectangle, how do the image droop and sag even though it’s rooted in a hard-line geometric sensibility.”

ORIELE STEINER: THE VISUAL INVESTIGATION

hueandeye — Tue, 04 Aug 2020 11:22:51 +0000

This week we had an exciting chat with Oriele Steiner (b. 1993), a young British painter currently living and working in Brighton.

Oriele was born and raised in North London from both deaf parents, for which her first language learned was the visual one. It was only during her academic years that she understood out how this peculiarity had indeed contributed at shaping her interest in visual arts. Her father, a painter himself, died when she was seven, and soon after that event, Oriele underwent some therapeutical activity, which brought her to consider the visual arts as an essential piece of the therapeutic process itself.

Growing up, she found out with stronger awareness that painting would have soon become her main field of interest. In college, she applied for a BFA in Fine Arts Painting achieved at the Brighton Unversity in 2015 – with a prior Foundation course at Central Saint Marti. Before her academic years, Steiner didn’t consider herself a san oil painter. It was during the second BFA year that she realized how to turn this frustration into an achievement. It mainly happened while attending an art show as she chanced upon in viewing the work by former painter Richard Diebenkorn. Oriele suddenly understood how her weaknesses could be used as strengths and began exploring how to avoid including elements she felt uncomfortable within her artworks. This shift is considered by herself a turning point to her present style. Her subjects will now include blurred and evocative personal emotions. She will engage the viewer to reflect and interpret the depicted characters as a memoir from the past, a set of fuzzy feelings similar to a dream.

Oriele Steiner will explain how this achieved technique fully satisfies her need to explore her memories and personal story. Through her characters, she finds the ability to cover her missing emotional pieces like a jigsaw. This search for emotions is also significantly related to the artwork itself; it’s while painting that Oriele may better understand her primary triggers. Her new subjects all share feelings of loneliness and isolation, with a consequent analysis of human relationships.

It’s a cause of reflection on how this is a perfect fit for this challenging moment of worldwide quarantine. Oriele also had – as many of us – to change her career and life plans when this global emergency occurred. Her plans of moving to London, for which she was already packing for, suddenly vanished. Luckily her young age doesn’t cancel the idea of applying to an MFA and deepen her art skills.

@ Oriele Steiner – ‘Those Left Behind’. Oil on Canvas – 2020. 100cm x 75cm

@ Oriele Steiner – ‘Starting again from…now!’ – 2020. 80 x 100 cm Acrylic and spray paint on canvas.

@ Oriele Steiner – ‘Those left behind study’. Acrylic & Gouache on paper – 2020, 21cm x 29.7cm

@ Oriele Steiner – Untitled. Acrylic & Gouache on paper – 2020, 21cm x 29.7cm

@ Oriele Steiner – ‘What in the name of Zarking Fardwarks’ – 2020
Acrylic & spray paint on canvas. 100cm x 81cm

@ Oriele Steiner – ‘Sorry I didn’t clean the cat litter trays’. Acrylic on paper – 2020. 29.7cm x 21cm

She also though pointed out how having a parallel job suits very well her need of exploring different fields. Oriele is, as a matter of fact, a Fashion Marketplace Manager, which taught her how to take care of more pragmatic topics, she considers essential in life too.

Carlo Tozzi, founder and curator at st-Art Amsterdam, says about Oriele:

‘Soon enough I became obsessed with Oriele Steiner’s artworks, her capability to use pure colors, as the Fauvists artist did at the beginning of the 20th century, to represent a familiar reality. Shee reinterprets an old fashion painting style, reviewed and re-elaborated as any great artist would do. The use of complementary colors and the imposed lack of detail, juxtaposed to the abundance of expression from the whole composition is overwhelming and courageous. I think Oriele has huge potentials and, despite her young age, demonstrates already artistic maturity and awareness. We hope we will participate and contribute to Oriele’s growth and talent development and we appreciate her collaborative and positive attitude’.

Please visit her website and follow Oriele Steiner on Instagram here.
