With this new collection Olson is bringing in Post Modern work that embeds narrative themes: capitalism, pop culture, social decadence and modern platitudes all with his drive of primal punk style! Olson’s work is best described in his own words:
“My Art gives contemporary art a juvenile delinquent phase. It’s self-made style icons gleefully trashed conventions of beauty and society while pick pocketing from the coolest underground styles and believes of the previous centuries…”
– Steve Olson
A collaboration of tightly strung imagery, layered texture, decomposed material and a distracting relationship of art, language, and his person tale behind his work gives it a cultural relevance that is extremely current. Hadid Gallery is pleased to be showing Steve Olson's show Inside Out, not just an art show but an experience. Following are a few images from the opening reception.
