From the 6th to the 31st of July, the Openspace gallery invites the artist Doze Green, one the masters of characters in graffiti and
of the first break dancers of the Rock Steady Crew. He is an historical reference of the hip-hop community. Starting graffiti and breakdance in New York in the last 70s, his work is now picture. Exhibited by the Jonathan LeVine Gallery from New york and the Lazarides Gallery from London, he presents his phantasmagorical, timeless and tribal-like artworks for the first time in France at the Openspace gallery.Doze Green is an artist as passionate and syncretic as his painting. Known
to be one of the hip-hop world references, he combines the style of his first
graffiti and his well-known past of dancer with an energetic and spectral
painting process.The movement is as important to him as the material he uses. In his works,
he tries to translate the metaphorical and timeless concepts that question
him. Affected by the cubism movement and his Afro-Caribbean origins,
he is also influenced by the b-boy culture and way-of-life. Doze Green
paints the duality of the human condition and tells us an emotional and
symbolical story.At Openspace gallery — 5 rue Alexandre Dumas (75011), in the presence of the artist.
From the 6th to the 31th — ‘NEW WORKS’ — DOZE GREEN solo show.
