Miss the Paris stop of the Nouveaux Monstres show? Happen to be in/near Lille in late September through November? You’re in luck. The exhibition of sculptures, drawings and interactive art pieces will be in town for over a month for your viewing pleasure.
Visit http://www.lille3000.com/ for more information. Show run September 18th through November 8th.
Included in the show are 4 huge format wall graphics that I did. Below is a picture of one wall as shown in the Paris EXIT exhibit.
Day 2 in Paris. Stomach flu setting in made enjoying anything much harder. Lots of moaning and groaning and making funny faces, but I was still able to make it to the opening of EXIT and have a good time.
I took over the restaurant area of the exhibit which is right on the main floor with huge windows out to the plaza. It’s a great space.
The walls were huge and flowed well into one another across the space. All the bright colors reflected on surfaces of tables, floors and ceilings adding to the fun.
A slide show of work played in the lobby area.
The walls can be seen on the left, with the main exhibit doors on the right.
More pics after the break, or on flickr!
Today we arrived bright and early following an overnight flight from NYC. We got a nice behind the scenes look at the EXIT festival exhibits in mid-construction. Here are a few quick photos from my walls as they are hung and lighting is adjusted…
Today I was working with my own spin on a traditional damask pattern that I like for a wall installation at the VIA and EXIT festivals in France. Here is a version of it that is part dragon, part shaggy dog, and a whole lot of love.
You could set it as a desktop, but you will probably go blind. Here is a larger and less contrasty version for such uses.
The VIA Festival is a celebration of art, theater, dance and music held on the border of France and Belgium.
This year they are proud to present NEW FREAKS, featuring exhibitions and installations of monsters and more created by 16 artists from around the world. New York based artist Andrew Bell presents several large custom printed wall panels filled with his creature creations. After VIA, the artwork will move on to the EXIT Festival in Paris.

I’m working on some art for some walls that will be on display at the VIA festival in Maubeuge (Northern France) early March and then at the EXIT festival in Paris suburb Creteil later in the month. I had to vectorize a bunch of artwork, this is what my illustrator file looks like when I turn all my layers on. This has nothing to do with the final layout, I just thought it was fun! back to work!
