Pakage Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 My next project for school is to pick an artist (they must be currently alive) and i will be building a gallery website for their work. the challenge is to make the gallery in the same vein as the style of the art that it contains. to be honest, im an uneducated slob and know virtually zip about art. especially current art. Virtually the only famous artist that i can name off the top of my head is banksy, who come to think of it would actually make a pretty sweet subject to build a gallery for if nothing better is suggested. can anyone point me in the direction of any artists that you think are pretty sweet? it can be contemporary, digital or even graph art. aslong as its art and not design then its sweet. ez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Awesome Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Roll with Banksy imo, that man is so far ahead of everybody else designing a Banksy inspired gallery would be a real interesting thing to do. eg: this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paint Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 If they don't have to be a super famous artist, I'd go with someone who has a cool visual style you can design the gallery around.

Taiko Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 One to watch imho. His shit is going to blow up in a few years the rate he is going. He was a year below me in art school and am uber jealous of what he has achieved so far. His work can be seen/has been seen in Masterworks and Object Space in Ponsonby for those that are interested. /end plug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
