Artistic Frenzy: Opening Reception for Nick Giannini and Free Champagne Event

Description

Join us in welcoming Nick Giannini and his work to 1192 Folsom.

He will be painting live as well as having gallery hung pieces.

Bio:
Nick Giannini's art doesn't make some bold statement about
culture or society and he wouldn't begin to tell the viewer how they

should interpret his art. His work doesn't explore the hidden realms
of the human psyche or dictate his views of our world. Instead, Nick
offers a fun house of images that melt the real with the surreal
making ludicrous, intriguing, and abstract art. Nothing is what it
seems in his absurd world – an elephant is not just an elephant; a
city is more than just a city. The goal is to have the viewer
experience their own interpretation of Nick's artistic frenzy, to find
a piece of themselves in his work and use his characters and
landscapes to spark their own imagination and creativity. Nick is not
one to dip his paintbrush in emotions and splatter it on a canvas, but
rather to paint surreal concepts to stimulate the viewers.

With a degree in Graphic Design and a core in painting, Nick is pursuing his talents in many different medias including logos, flyer designs, album covers and much more, trying to explore all realms of design while maintaining his artistic style. Nick has been painting for the last 4 years, and, in the last year,has begun to explore the experience of live painting. He has painted live for various concerts, parties, club events, and charities throughout the Bay Area. He sees the live painting as a way to touch base with an audience as they watch the evolution of a painting take place before them. He currently has artwork on display throughout California in places ranging from hair salons, skateboard shops, galleries, and restaurants. The Artistic Frenzy is still young and evolving rapidly, full of countless goals and aspirations that he hopes to conquer in the future. Nick hopes to soon expand his network throughout the U.S and focus all his time and energy to his art as a full time artist.
