Subversive Holiday
Opening Reception on August 6, 2011 from 7:00 PM to 11:00 PM
Exhibition Runs through September 1, 2011
Hold Up Art
328 E. Second Street, Los Angeles, CA 90012
Hold Up Art is proud to present "Subversive Holiday," the first solo exhibition
for the prolific wheat paste artist Septerhed. Known for his plurality of designs
and characters, Septerhed has earned a respected place in the street art
circles of Los Angeles. Though his background in illustration and graphic
design helped to inform his visual aesthetics, it is Septerhed’s sarcasm and
sense of humor that make his images not only enjoyable, but memorable.
Generally, Septerhed's images tend to originate from a digital composition, and
are reproduced through either silk-screening, or by hand with acrylic paints.
"Subversive Holiday" features a closer examination of three of Septerhed's
most recognizable characters (The GEO-HEDs, Toxins and Wolves),
explaining the existence and nuances of each style as a specific mode of
design. The exhibition will also feature a limited edition giclee print, “Don’t Mind
Me” released exclusively through Hold Up Art.
