Bernard Frize – ‘The Brush Paints’

By Patternbank On November 14, 2012 · In Inspiration

Patternbank loves Bernard Frize’s exaggerated brushstroke paintings for colour depth and pattern structure inspiration. Frize who was born in Saint-Mandé, France in 1949, now lives and works in Paris and Berlin. Frize’s work is always abstract and is concerned not with personal expression but with the actual process of making the work. He is fond of saying ‘the brush paints’. Techniques include the use of several brushes tied together. In certain works in which multicoloured brushstrokes interweave like woven threads. See more of his inspiring work on his site – bernardfrize.com

Barry McGee – Fusing Imagery

By Patternbank On November 12, 2012 · In Graphics

Patternbank love Barry McGee’s unique personal style of fusing together found and invented imagery along with tags and assorted objects. Influenced by Mexican muralists, tramp art, the graffiti artists of the 70′s and 80′s and the San Francisco Beat poets, he creates a unique visual language. McGee, also known by his street name, Twist, is acclaimed for his work in the street and for his painted installations in galleries, museums and art festivals around the world. You can see more of his work at the Prism Gallery in California where he exhibited earlier this year.

Sarah Walker – Information Overload

By Patternbank On November 5, 2012 · In Inspiration

Sarah Walker’s acrylic works on paper and panel are a complex mix of abstract shapes, organic patterns and intricate geometric structures. Walker is interested in how we scan and process information overload nowadays. Her lattice-like structures suggest blood vessels or crystals and rocks. In her words “I intend my paintings to operate as tools for perceptual recalibration. In them conditions exist for the viewer to process several systems at once. Patterns and diagrams found within the sciences, nature and architecture form the basis of imagery.” Walker lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. See more of her work at sarahwalker.org

Smashed Up Glitch Art – Laurent Segretier

By Patternbank On October 30, 2012 · In Inspiration

These glitch fuelled visuals are the stunning work of Hong Kong based artist and photographer Laurent Segretier. His digital artworks take on new forms when computer screens displaying original photos are smashed up and then re-photographed. Amazing and refreshing stuff, see more of his work on his tumblr site – monsieurchon.

Mathew Zefeldt – Insanely Surreal

By Patternbank On October 25, 2012 · In Inspiration

Loving these utterly surreal large scale paintings by Mathew Zefeldt. They almost grate the eyes with their rainbow compositions, abstract symbolism and intense patterns and textures. Mathew says “My work addresses the multiple visual languages of painting and brings them together in one plane, creating an overlay of styles and gestures that echo the fragmented, heterogeneous nature of contemporary reality.’ Check out more over at his Website.

Klaus Merkel – Brushstroke Brilliance

By Patternbank On October 25, 2012 · In Inspiration

German artist Klaus Merkel is known for his outstanding paintings and deservedly so, with their uncompromising scale and bold sweeping brush marks they investigate the conceptual tasks of painting. Patternbank love the bold colour combinations, abstract shapes with blocks of colour against textured brush marks and grid formations. Klaus Merkel was born in Heidelberg (DE) in 1953 and lives and works in Freiburg (DE). You can see more of his work at merkel-atelier.de
