This great post of a trip to artist Kelsey Brookes studio is one of several lushly photographed articles on current contemporary art happenings around the world from another recent art blog discovery Arrested Motion.
For his debut solo show with the gallery, Kelsey has delivered a stunning new body of work that seems to bridge the best qualities of his earlier work with the more detailed work from his bigger shows last year (like his solo with New Image Art).
All his best elements are there, from his day glow color palette to the intensely detailed highlights to his stunning use of text and the human form – “Bigger, Brighter, Bolder” delivers on all three statements and then some. The key to Kelsey’s work is viewing it up close, and many of these new works are in the 3 x 3’ and 4 x 4’ range, so in-person viewing is a must….
