Aguirre Schwarz is an artist popularly recognized as his street art name 'Zevs' and he opens up his latest exhibition named 'Savoure Le Rouge.' It takes place in Paris, France's 'New Galerie' and features a new set of his original works. The overall theme of the artwork is inspired by Coca-Cola's advertisements blown out in a large scale blended with acrylic portraits.
These portraits are of actresses Anne Heche and Janet Leigh, who were the stars of the popular thriller by Alfred Hitchcock film, 'Psycho.' This series blends pop culture references and is aptly named 'Hitchcoke,' with the background of red and the recognizable swirl in a contrasting white. These swirls are made to represent violent slashes on the portraits as a nod to the film and the characters.
