COPE 2 Defiance


Opening Reception 6pm-10pm

Galerie MATHGOTH 103, rue Saint-Maur - 75001 www.mathgoth.com

Paris, France - MathGoth Gallery is proud to present Defiance a solo exhibition by Cope 2. Sixteen months after his first exhibition in Paris, Burnings Hearts with partner INDIE 184 in 2010, the famous graffiti artist COPE 2 represents New York for the second time exhibiting his mixed media paintings. Defiance features the works of the international graffiti legend whose work do not settle down combining the techniques of graffiti with the dexterity of brush and collages.

A real change in his work, which premiered at Burnings Hearts, Cope 2 proves his burgeoning and experimental style in Defiance as a bold resistance to his traditional graffiti art . No denial in the work of Cope2, the king's legendary bubble letters and tagging remain at the heart of each painting but with new spaces, thought and imagery.

Limiting his exterior graffiti murals, the canvas is now his favorite medium, which contributes to the accessibility of the artist by challenging the same paradox. Now, favoring studio work, more carefully, Cope2 deepens this trend for a very accomplished performance. Cope2 has become a studio painter with the precision and the passion that implies.

Defiance opens February 18 on display through March 1, 2012.
