"Poptimism" - Vinnie Nylon 1st Solo Gallery Show @ High Roller Society Gallery, Bethnal Green London 8/9/12 - 7/9/12


Nylon Blackbook sketch for The Kool Skool from 2001
Not only is Nylon one of the cleanest painters and a serious hard worker, but he is is a longtime friend of The Kool Skool. Check out his solo show "Poptimism" - Vinnie Nylon 1st Solo Gallery Show @ High Roller Society Gallery, Bethnal Green London 8/9/12 - 7/9/12


Poptimism private view and drinks Friday September 7th 6-9pm. The exhibition will run at the gallery from the 8th September – 7th October 2012.

High Roller Society Gallery - 10 Palmers Road - Bethnal Green (next to the bridge over the Regents canal) E2 OSY. Number 8 bus from Liverpool Street/ Bethnal Green Station



Welcome to Poptimism, the first solo show in London by Vinnie Nylon.
Vinnie Nylon has been involved in the street art and graffiti movement for over 25 years, producing walls, print, paintings, graphics and billboards for a variety of small and international companies and commissioners.
This all new body of work is born out of a lifelong collecting obsession, a visual playground in which all of the collected toys and mascots meet head on, a collision designed to level the fields of high and low art. Where old meets new and ultra cute takes on a slightly sinister undertone.
Since the mid 90s Vinnie Nylon has been placing an army of candy coloured characters and advertising mascots onto canvas and walls. A new spin on old favourites, a savage twist on others, all harking back to a simpler post war era when the distinction between childhood and adulthood was so much clearer.
Lost icons that are no longer employed to distract us from the austerity of mid century Britain and America take on their new guise to reclaim their rightful place in a new visual universe.
Television as smokescreen, popular as social acceptance, reality sugar coated with a big goofy smile slapped on it. Poptimism reintroduces, reevaluates and explores the themes of seduction by ad media, sentimental attachment and mass production.
The works on show include vintage petrol cans, sticker art, fanzine and screen print as well as a number of new paintings and mixed media pieces. Trademark bright colours and thick impasto sit beside the more demure offerings of hand finished print and collage pieces.
The frame is the door that leads into a world of visual pop delights and plastic fantastic high low art for all to enjoy, so step inside and keep it pop, never stop playing.

Nylon featured in our exclusive video of 'Haters' - Heavy Artillery Crew Graffiti Exhibition from late 2009
