Pose Paints Vibrant New Installation in Detroit’s Belt

Chicago artist Pose recently rocked an installation in Detroit’s Belt, an alley in the city’s downtown that has been converted into an outdoor art exhibition space, curated by Library Street Collective. Already filled with art from some of the world’s leading street and contemporary artists, Pose has added to the madness with his signature collage of vibrant colors and cartoony textures.

Chicago artist Pose recently rocked an installation in Detroit’s Belt, an alley in the city’s downtown that has been converted into an outdoor art exhibition space, curated by Library Street Collective. Already filled with art from some of the world’s leading street and contemporary artists, Pose has added to the madness with his signature collage of vibrant colors and cartoony textures. Each section of the mural is painted with laser-like precision, and composed with the spontaneity of newspaper clippings spread across a table. What sets this piece apart from a lot of his previous work is the addition of 3D elements, integrating real objects, such as brightly colored steps and window panes into his mash of comic styled urban landscapes.

Looking at the art of James Bullough is like looking at reality through the shards of a shattered mirror. The American born, Berlin based artist's paintings and murals, featured here on our blog, have become instantly recognizable for his mixture of realism and abstraction. Bullough describes his work as "altered reality", a style leaning towards photo-realism and working with a combination of materials including oil, acrylic, latex and spray paints.
Dutch artist duo Telmo Pieper and Miel Krutzmann join forces as Telmo Miel, the moniker under which they've painted large-scale, surreal murals all over Europe. While well-versed in traditional figure painting, the artists distort and overlap their realistic renderings to create something dreamlike and surreal. They layer iterations of the same subject over one another in a way that evokes double-exposure photography. Telmo Miel's work, whether it contains something as morbid as an animal skull or pleasant as a beautiful human face, retains a quality of softness. The images drape over one another like sheer, silky fabrics, enveloping buildings in their dreamy haze.
Telmo Miel just completed a new mural as part of Kirk Gallery's Out in the Open 2019 festival, which accompanies their solo show at the Denmark space. The duo, comprised of Dutch artists Telmo Pieper and Miel Krutzmann, are known for wowing inside and outside of galleries with their vibrant figurative works. Their solo show, "Exquisite Waste of Time," runs through June 8. Telmo Miel was last featured on HiFructose.com here.
