Eric Firestone Gallery is delighted to announce the North American representation of FUTURA2000 and the artist’s first gallery show in NYC in over 30 years, Futura 2020. The exhibition opens October 22 at the gallery’s new ground-floor location at 40 Great Jones Street, reservations are required.
As one of the most celebrated artists to emerge out of the world of graffiti and street art, FUTURA2000 was first recognized for bringing abstract painting to the genre. His painting motifs relate to computer technology and video gaming and often are cosmic panoramas and abstract compositions. FUTURA2000 employs spray paint with virtuoso precision, creating a thin, refined line, contrasted by larger mists of color areas, and gestural brush marks. By leaving large areas of his canvases open, and allowing the forms to float across the surface, FUTURA2000 suggests access to a cosmic space.
