Pejac Unleashed
Hello Again Addictees!
We have new listings coming in thick and fast (if you missed the last lot, click here). The latest works are from the muy caliente Spanish street artist Pejac.
Working in various mediums, Pejac is known for his recreations of classic masterpieces, like the installation Don’t Look Back in Anger (2016), which features a rendition of van Gogh’s Starry Night (1889) carved by key into the hood of a Jaguar. Although he graduated from the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera in Milan, Pejac is a fierce proponent of street art who believes art should be accessible to all. His works can be found in Paris, London, Milan, Moscow, Hong Kong, Istanbul, Tokyo, and the United States.
Arty-Fact: “Don’t Look Back in Anger” recreates Van Gogh’s “Starry Night” as a response to the UK’s decision to exit the European Union (Brexit).
By scratching onto a Jaguar, an iconic British car, Pejac addresses the human obsession to cover marks and scars by turning them into something positive.
“Passion can lead us to destroy and in a split second it can push us to create. We are unpredictable beings, anger is a necessary emotion.” ~ Pejac
