(PR.co.nz) The Red Rock Gallery is proud to present ‘TAUPO’
An exhibition featuring new works from the brilliant creative partnership of Weston Frizzell, the collaborative identity of Otis Frizzell and Mike Weston.
After many years of working together, Otis Frizzell and Mike Weston’s creative partnership has evolved from that of a celebrity artist (Otis Frizzell) and his art dealer, producer and manager, (Mike Weston) into a full blown art collaboration.
Their Warhol influenced production line approach and entertainment industry influenced promotion and management has taken them from the street art and pop culture melting pot of Auckland’s K road into the fine art world.
Their output draws heavily on appropriated imagery, style and content. Presented with satiric and often ironic subtext, it challenges notions of authorship and originality.
Adding a new edition print to the WORD series for which Weston Frizzell have become so well known, they offer their own take on ‘TAUPO’ in a new and very limited edition of 10 only prints produced exclusively for Red Rock gallery show.
New and recent large format art works & select limited edition prints showcase their unique style & premium calibre of their work making this an exciting show to experience!
