Haitian-born modern artist Guy Stanley Philoche immigrated to Connecticut when he was three years old. As the middle child of three boys and coming from a family of sports enthusiasts whose passion he didn’t share, Philoche turned to art as his calling. While remaining close to his Haitian Roots, Philoche was the only son to buck his culture’s tradition of the entire family living together and struck out on his own – first attending Paier College of Art and then Yale. He now lives in
New York City.
For the past 15 years, Guy Stanley Philoche has been attracting international attention with his work and his impressive roster of solo shows. As an artist, Guy’s palette is strong and sophisticated. His layering technique has created a body of paintings so richly textured that one can hardly hold back from reaching out and touching the canvas. In fact, it is the artist’s intent and wish that the viewer will follow their desire to reach out and feel the different textures of his canvases.
His work is for the viewer’s pleasure, to be fully enjoyed from a tactile standpoint, and he has varnished the canvases for exactly that reason.
Raised in Newark, New Jersey at the height of the Black Power Movement, and during the eighties, as became the newest form of self expression, Serron Green aka xplorefreedom, realized early on,
the joining of these ideals would be the inspiration for his work.
The self-taught artist began experimenting with graffiti during the eighties and nineties. He began incorporating different mediums such as markers,
watercolor, and even house paint—with spray paint always remaining a constant. Since that time, he has broadened his scope of work to now include materials such as, reclaimed wood, rich textiles, and many
other unconventional items. 2009 was a pivotal year for the artist.
At the urging of friends, fellow artists,and collectors, he began creating work for formal exhibition. Pieces created in the years prior were sold
by word-of-mouth through a broadening circle that created an increasingly steady demand. He currently lives and works in Newark—a limitless source of inspiration. His travels across Europe, The Caribbean,
North and South America, have greatly impacted the way he sees the world around him, and with each discovery of a new locale, its traditions, and culture, it strengthens his belief that art truly has the power
to invoke change in the world.
Gregory Saint Amand also known as (GOGO) is a contemporary
and figurative, American and Haitian artist. He was born in New York but spent a good amount of his early formative years growing up in Haiti.
His perspective about what speaks to the human consciousness and understanding, the visual lexicons that influence our communication and culture is gentle but observantly powerful in its nature.
He displays his conversation with art, Loving to paint in layers to open the canvas and it’s limits, brings about a never-ending exploration. Using bright colors and inks and other interesting mediums and details,his mark vision is evident in the work. Playing with ideas that carry weight and then juxtaposing subjects, that are more light-hearted.
GOGO attended and graduated from The Cooper Union School of Art. His work has been featured in multiple venues and publications such as the Huffington Post, Scope, The Grio, Crème, Art Voice, 101 Top Artist, MILK mag to name a few.
O’Neil Scott is self-taught, Philadelphia-based artist. Influenced early on by both his grandfather and uncle, each of whom pursued creative careers, he took to drawing as a child and spent much of my youth filling the pages of empty notebooks with images of individuals, both fictional and real. In college, he had hoped to study art. But was awarded a football scholarship from Syracuse University and therefore had to prioritize his activities, which meant dropping my studio courses since they conflicted with the school’s training schedule. Majoring in Information Technology and then later earned my MBA at the University of Delaware, he never lost my passion for art. Rather, it remains a vehicle that I continue to utilize as a means to give voice to my innermost concerns. Inspired by the Old Masters as well as contemporary realists, he has always have been captivated by portraiture and its capacity to impart the complexities that comprise the human condition. It wasn’t until he stopped working with acrylic and started experimenting with oil that he started spending so much more time at the easel. He found the material’s pliability so much easier to navigate, but it’s ease of use has pushed him to delve that much deeper into subject matter and risk voicing my trepidation about the many issues that I hold close to my heart, such as social justice, climate change, police brutality and the Black Lives Matter movement. At their core, he wants his paintings to invoke mindfulness, to inspire contemplation,
and to convey understanding.
