"Each experience and significant moment in my life is portrayed in each work." - Artist interview with Joseph Yonke

"I grew up painting, art has always been a major part of my life. Ever since I could remember, I’ve been painting. My work is inspired by elements such as emotions and perceptions of the world; however, I have always grown up being inspired by the work of George Condo and Willem de Kooning. My figurative, abstract expressionist work is predominantly demonstrated through large-scale portraits constructed by oil, acrylic and ink mediums on canvas."

"I didn't realize, but I was already an artist on the inside." - An interview with John Fou

John Fou is a self-taught artist with a background in the world of live performance and more particularly in the circus, dance and theatre. He has developed a practice of figurative painting in which he stages social relationships between animals of different species, as an allegory of his life and more generally of human relationships. The artist explores the following influences that include mythology, cave paintings, psychology, dance, video games, cartoons and painting, from Géricault to Huguette Caland, via George Stubbs, Piero di Cosimo, Etruscan frescoes and Le Douanier Rousseau.

"One of the best ways to market work is to make and keep relationships with good people."

Marcus Antonius Jansen was predestined to a career shadowed by conflict. He was named after the Roman general Marcus Antonius, whose romance with the Egyptian queen Cleopatra led to the civil war that almost brought the empire to ruin. Born in New York City in 1968, Marcus Jansen creates powerful paintings that respond to his influences from growing up in the U.S. and Germany as well as cultural and social-political themes. His socially charged urban landscape paintings are influenced by the two opposite worlds he grew up in. Through his colourful and expressive brushwork, Jansen documents the human condition critically, socially and politically and invites the viewer to engage in the reflection.
