James Jean is a highly acclaimed Taiwanese-American artist renowned for his captivating and versatile work that seamlessly bridges the gap between commercial illustration and fine art. Born in Taiwan in 1979 and raised in New Jersey, Jean studied at the School of Visual Arts in New York and has since established himself as a prominent figure in the contemporary art world.
Upon graduating in 2001, Jean quickly made a name for himself as a prolific cover artist for DC Comics, most notably for the series Fables and The Umbrella Academy, earning multiple Eisner and Harvey Awards for his intricate and imaginative cover designs. Beyond the comics industry, his commercial clients have included Time Magazine, the New York Times, Linkin Park, Target, and Prada, the latter of which he has collaborated with on several fashion campaigns.
In 2008, Jean shifted his focus from commercial work to concentrate on painting and drawing as a fine artist. His distinctive style blends surrealistic elements, delicate linework, and vibrant colors, drawing inspiration from a wide range of sources, including Art Nouveau, Japanese woodblock prints (Ukiyo-e), and Chinese silk scroll paintings. His work, which often features dream-like narratives and fantastical creatures, is characterized by its meticulous detail and ability to evoke a sense of whimsical melancholy.
Now based in Los Angeles, James Jean exhibits his work in galleries and museums worldwide, with pieces in the permanent collection at the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco and past displays at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. He has also created celebrated posters for major films like Everything Everywhere All at Once and Blade Runner 2049. His continuous exploration of both traditional and digital mediums and his ability to blend Eastern and Western cultural aesthetics have solidified his position as one of his generation's most influential and admired artists.

_______________

AJ Masthay is a contemporary artist best known for his distinctive concert "gig prints" created using the traditional medium of reduction linoleum block printing. A native of Connecticut, Masthay has established himself by embracing a labor-intensive, hand-carved process in an industry dominated by digital design, making his work unique and highly sought after.
His artistic process involves carving a single block of linoleum, printing a color, then carving more from the same block for the next color, and so on, building complexity with each layer. This subtractive method results in limited-edition prints. Masthay's subjects are primarily inspired by live music and bands like the Grateful Dead and Allman Brothers, capturing the vibrant energy and spirit of the music scene.
Masthay's work is valued for its craftsmanship and tangible connection to artisanal methods. His art has been offered at auction multiple times, with realized prices for original pieces reflecting their collectability. He operates Masthay Studios LLC, from which he sells his original prints and limited edition digital reproductions on Moab Entrada Rag paper. He also engages with the art community as a mentor, sharing his expertise in traditional printmaking.

Charlie Edmiston 'Jaunt #115' Print Available

Artist: Charlie Edmiston
Title: Jaunt #115
Medium: 3 Color Screen Print
Size: 50 x 70 cm
Edition: 50
Price: €300

 

Charlie Edmiston is a Los Angeles-based abstract artist known for his bold, large-scale works and distinctive use of color and geometric shapes. His artistic journey began with a foundation in graffiti and street art, a background that has influenced his risk-taking and vibrant contemporary style.
A graduate of the Otis College of Art and Design, Edmiston comes from a family of artists, with a calligrapher father and a cartoonist grandmother. This artistic lineage is evident in the dynamic and diverse nature of his work, which seamlessly transitions between large and small scales, and from free-form expression to structured geometric abstraction. His pieces consistently exude a sense of verve and vivacity, challenging viewers with compelling color compositions.
Edmiston's work has been exhibited both nationally and internationally, including shows at Scope Miami, the Urban Art Fair in France, and Avenue des Arts Gallery in California. He gained significant recognition when he was commissioned to create an official, Lucasfilm-licensed portrait of Luke Skywalker for a Star Wars coin, which is now archived in the Lucasfilm archives.
In 2024, at Milan Design Week, Edmiston presented four new works that demonstrated a dialogue between classic mid-century Danish design and California contemporary art. These pieces were specifically inspired by the timeless designs of the late Danish designer Finn Juhl, focusing on color theory, shape, and craftsmanship, mirroring Juhl's unique sculptor-like approach to furniture. This collaboration highlights his versatility and ability to draw inspiration from diverse sources, translating them into his unique abstract visual language.

Judy Chicago 'Reincarnation' Triptych Available

Artist: Judy Chicago
Title: Reincarnation (Triptych)
Medium: Sparkle Gloss Varnished 24 Color Screen Print
Size: 105 x 44 cm
Edition: 50
Price: €3,025 

 

Judy Chicago is an American artist, educator and writer born in 1939 in Chicago, Illinois, celebrated for her pioneering role in feminist art and her commitment to exploring the female experience through bold, collaborative works. Trained at UCLA, she challenged the male-dominated art world by creating powerful pieces that celebrate women’s history, sexuality and creativity. Her most famous work, The Dinner Party (1974-79), is a monumental installation featuring a triangular table with 39 elaborate place settings dedicated to significant women from history and mythology, each rendered in ceramics, textiles and embroidery, merging craft with fine art to elevate traditionally feminine skills.
Chicago’s practice spans painting, sculpture, installation and performance, often employing vivid colours and symbolic forms to confront taboos and reclaim female narratives. Her Birth Project (1980-85) involved hundreds of volunteers in creating textile pieces depicting childbirth, while The Holocaust Project (1985-93) explored genocide through tapestry and stained glass, demonstrating her ability to tackle complex historical subjects with emotional depth and visual impact.
A dedicated educator, Chicago founded the first feminist art program in the United States at Fresno State College in 1970, inspiring generations of artists to question gender roles and institutional power. Her teaching emphasized collaboration, personal narrative and the validation of craft as high art, breaking down barriers between disciplines and hierarchies.
Today, Chicago continues to create and advocate, producing works that address climate change, ageing and the ongoing struggle for gender equality. Her art is held in major museums worldwide, including the Brooklyn Museum and the Tate Modern. Through her unwavering commitment to feminist principles and collaborative practice, Judy Chicago has transformed contemporary art, ensuring that women’s voices and experiences are seen, heard and celebrated.

Kerry James Marshall 'Vignettes' Folio Available

Artist: Kerry James Marshall
Title: Vignettes
Medium: Giclee Prints
Size: (A3) 29.7 x 42 cm
Edition: UNSURE
Prices: £195

 

Kerry James Marshall is an American painter born in Birmingham, Alabama, in 1955, whose real name is Kerry James Marshall. He is celebrated for placing Black subjects at the center of Western art history, using deep, obsidian pigments to assert presence and challenge centuries of erasure. After moving to Los Angeles in 1963 and studying at Otis College of Art and Design, he developed a precise, layered technique that fuses Renaissance glazing with contemporary narrative, often working in egg tempera for unmatched chromatic depth.
His landmark pieces include A Portrait of the Artist as a Shadow of His Former Self (1980), a near-black figure emerging from an equally black ground, and the monumental Many Mansions (1994), where three impeccably dressed men tend a flowerbed in front of crumbling public housing, ironically titled after a biblical promise of abundance. These works confront stereotypes while infusing scenes of everyday Black life with dignity, hope and biting satire.
Marshall’s practice extends to history painting, collage and public murals, all aimed at “wrestling with the sinewy, sneaky forces of colonization, privilege and erasure”. His 2012 canvas School of Beauty, School of Culture reimagines Velázquez’s Las Meninas inside a bustling African American hair salon, complete with a distorted Disney princess that critiques Western beauty standards.
Recipient of a 1997 MacArthur Fellowship and the 2014 Wolfgang Hahn Prize, Marshall continues to live and work in Chicago, producing works that insist on the visibility, complexity and beauty of Black experience within the grand narrative of art.

Vinnie Hager 'Impromptu' Prints Available

Artist: Vinnie Hager
Title: Impromptu
Medium: Hand Embellished 1 Color Screen Print
Size: 18 x 24 Inches
Edition: 30 (UNIQUE)
Price: $75

 

Vinnie Hager is a Baltimore-born multidisciplinary artist who has turned compulsive doodling into a market-moving visual language. Raised in Millersville, Maryland, he spent solitary childhood afternoons filling notebooks with symbols eyes, envelopes, stars, question marks that still populate his work today. Encouraged by early $25 sales at school, he refined the alphabet while studying at Anne Arundel Community College and later at MICA, where animation and illustration courses fed his fascination with pattern.
Working without preliminary sketches, Hager lays down looping chains of glyphs in Posca pens, Procreate or paint pens, letting each shape dictate the next until dense mandala-like fields emerge. The method is meditative yet urgent; a single canvas or vintage Champion hoodie can be completed in one hypnotic four-hour session. Colour palettes shift between soft pastels and high-visibility neons, but the line remains consistently clean, recalling both hieroglyphics and circuit boards.
During the pandemic he pioneered Instagram “scavenger drops,” leaving free art around Baltimore, then watching followers sprint to claim them an act that converted online buzz into real-world community. The same energy fuels limited capsule releases: thrifted furniture, cut-and-sewn blankets, ski masks and Nike AF1s slathered with his code sell out in minutes, echoing early Supreme hype without the corporate machine.
Hager’s recent Diary NFT project translates seven years of grief into 1,000 unique digital squares, each paired with a physical print, merging Web3 innovation with tangible craft. Whether painting a six-storey Harbour East mural or grip-tape for local skaters, he treats every surface as a page in an ever-expanding sketchbook, proving that sincerity, speed and a sharp eye can transform simple marks into cultural currency.

Lora Zombie 'American Hero' Print Available

This is a 4 colour 24 x 18 inch screen print on 100lb Cougar smoooth paper with an edition size of 100, comes signed and numbered by the artist for $40 each.
