LA Bartenders have been holding a month of art exhibitions. To bring the mini festival to an end they have invited Recoat to exhibit for the final week.
Recoat have brought together two leading Scottish graffiti artists to create artwork over the week. Rekor and Lyken are both talented artists, they are creative in their mark making and have a flair for colour choice. Within their gallery work they have both started to abstract letterforms and to layer paint and textures. Their work should compliment each other well.
On Monday visitors can go along to watch the artists setting up and beginning to paint their pieces. They are hanging a series of varied sized canvases on one wall. By painting one large piece across the whole wall they will then create smaller pieces that can be lifted off as individual paintings in their own right. The mural and smaller pieces will then be open to the public for viewing and sale on Thursday the 22nd of April between 6 and 10pm.
To finish the month of shows LA Bartenders have invited each of the exhibiting galleries to put in several pieces for a live art auction which will take place at 8.30pm on Thursday the 22nd of April. Artwork will be available from Recoat Gallery, Shooting Gallery and Fostering Art.
