Andreas
von Chrzanowski - known by the alias CASE - is a German born artist who
works solely with spray paint. He is widely acclaimed as one of the
best photorealistic spray paint artists in the world. With his technical
expertise and gift for subtle juxtaposition, CASE has managed to
challenge and redefine this supposedly unwieldy medium, allowing him to
produce re-contextualised images of beauty which allow us to question
their everyday representation.
For
his exhibition at the 99 Mount Street Gallery, CASE is presenting a new
collection of original portraits. CASE's inspiration for the exhibition
- George Bernard Shaw's classical musical 'My Fair Lady' - is
particularly pertinent for the location and cultural milieu of The
Gallery. It is also a playful allusion to Urban Fine Art's own journey
into the highest echelons of society. The culmination of this project
will be the artist's much anticipated appearance at this year's Mayfair
Garden Party on June 25th, during which he will be completing a two
metre square painting of the scene.
