Artist Christian Rex van Minnen introduces his first art print in over 10 years with the unveiling of 'Parallax.' This print is inspired by an earlier oil painting the artist created and he taps to his archival work of still-life pieces. He uses an old Venetian painterly technique that has been around for centuries.
He also spotlights traditional objects such as fruits and adds a touch of eclectic themes with more modern items such as gummy sweets taking the spotlight. Minnen uses his expertise in art history to imagine these creations that are twisted to represent many different areas such as meme culture and tattoos along with death metal and pornography. The Parallax print is set to be available for 24 hours on February 22 at 7 am.
