Flying Fortress
Gomes

Toronto | January 27 | Off The Wall




"Off The Wall" is an exhibition of character based, graffiti and skate
inspired art presented by Grind Magazine. Recent work by MCA from Evil
Design, Tokyo Night Train, and Nathan Olokun will be featured at the show.

MCA's work has been seen all over the world. In Japan, he's produced a
series of limited-edition prints that sold out in three hours! His work
has also been displayed on a world wide tour with designer toy
manufacturer Toy2R from Hong Kong. MCA's exhibits have attracted a
capacity crowd to many of his shows including the 55DSL store in Union
Square in New York City, and the Cinespace in Hollywood California which
was curated by Gum Magazine. His work has been featured in dozens of pop
culture magazines including Lodown (Germany), Animal (US), Fat Bank Roll
(Sweden), and Vice (US) to name a few.

Tokyo's graffiti-based style is inspired by Japanimation and 1970's
comic-book art. His recurring character, the TOKYO head, is one of most
distinctive tags in graffiti culture. It has even been used in a recent
Fuji Film billboard ad campaign. He has had exhibitions of his artwork in
Toronto at Base Gallery and Spin Gallery. His work has also been displayed
in various local and international graffiti exhibitions including Style in
Progress and 416 Graffiti Expo. Tokyo is currently producing a series of
comics that will be published beginning in the next issue of Grind
Magazine.

Bruxelles | January 28 | "Cornet de Stoemp"



Alëxone presents “cornet de stoemp”, one year of his work developed in his studio in Brussels

For its opening the Gallery Alice has the honour to present the works of the French artist Alëxone who exhibits solo for the first time.

Artist painter who started with graffiti is undeniably the symbol of the artistic European underground scene, his fame will make the pupils from the Star’Academy get pale from jealousy.

But with Alëxone no “premium”, the exhibition is the synthesis of his hard work that started 10 years ago.

Finally, he shows us a very personal universe in his paintings. A world full of strange animals mixed with foreign influences at the limit of the supernatural.

In the land of Magritte, nobody is surprised about anything any more. Not even about genius.

First exhibition “Carnet de stoemp” of the artist Alëxone from 29 January to 14 march 2005.

The Vernissage will be held on Friday 28 January.
