Best known for his bold text paintings and
most recent film making, London-based
artist David Austen featured paintings,
sculptures and works on paper. His newest
pieces were made by gouache that is
copied and pasted onto the immersive
installation that is composed of 33 parts, as
well as showcasing a collection of paintings
from 2009-2016. The small yet bright and
colorful circular pieces brought a sunny,
positive vibe to some of the more serious
pieces, including his oil-on-canvas texts,
with bittersweet phrases like "The City of
Love and Fear."
