London-based Paul Insect is one of cult art’s most recognizable and prominent artists.
As one of street art’s trailblazers, a movement marking a new era in art history,
Insect’s work can be spotted anywhere from the streets of London to LA, from Stockholm to Sydney.
Paul has worked alongside a host of today’s most established artists and helped many with graphically
developing their work, including Banksy and Jamie Hewlett. In 2007, INSECT joined these and other
POW artists painting the controversial separation wall in Palestine.
That same year “Bullion” his first major show in London was entirely bought-out by Damien Hirst
before opening to the public. This galvanized Insect’s position as a groundbreaking artist,
“Bullion” is now featured as part of Hirst’s “Murderme” collection of contemporary art.
“Out of Chaos” is Paul Insect’s first show in New York City and features a series of striking new works
projecting a world out of control, visions of both helplessness and hope. How do we emerge out of this chaos?
Insect’s work demonstrates the power of art as the solution.
” When you work on the streets as long as we all have, there are few artists who’s work stands out
as fresh and captivating. Since first seeing Paul’s work in London some 10 years ago,
we’ve been struck by his raw and graphic iconography. He’s got a masterful touch
walking between the lewd and the ludicrous. Paul’s work continues to evolve –
proving he can push the boundaries of portraiture while still dancing with rats at night. “
