ACE is a mystery. All I can tell you right now is that he's a guerrilla printmaker and that his logo is an anthropomorphist boxer. |

Adam King explores landscape and the pastoral through two and three dimensional collages. His work reveals post-apocalyptic terrains pieced together from the collected imagery of an urban consumer culture. These landscapes and their inhabitants are a disturbing reflection on our fixation with all things fashionable.
He is based in London and studied at the Wimbledon School of Art.

"One of the most important motif in my work is contrast nature and technical civilization. There are my own contemporary person experiences from everyday live existence.
There are grotesque and certain tension in my paintings. Important pictures series is for me the "Metro" cycle. I placed there scenes from nature- fishing, chase, hunt, in to the decorative application of the underground's walls..I wanted symbolic transfer a little bit nature in to the Prague underground stations.
Conflict between natural and technical world is in the animals portraits too. |

Alex Dewart’s painting are based on landscape and could be said to explore the space between : representation and abstraction; digital and analogue ; the simulated and the real.
They may be based on real places or be completely imaginary. It is an enquiry into the relationship between painting and the virtual imagery of the latest technology.
I am interested in the idea of the ‘Contemporary Sublime’. |
