Entirely dedicated to contemporary art — including painting, sculpture, and limited editions — the gallery promotes a bold artistic vision centered around Street Art, Pop Art, and contemporary portraiture.

Banksy Thrower

This unique mixed-media work depicts Banksy’s famous Flower Thrower. However, Mr Brainwash has replaced the bouquet of flowers with a book – specifically Art for Dummies. Recognizable by its colour, it references the popular “For Dummies” manuals.

Work well together

The tenderness of the scene is the central element of the entire piece. This work by Mr Brainwash focuses on the image of two children, one with an arm wrapped around the other. Both have their backs turned to the viewer as they sit on a sagging bench, facing a lively, animated background.

Balloon girl

“The Girl with the Balloons” is a famous street art piece created by British artist Banksy. It shows a little girl reaching out towards a heart-shaped balloon. This image symbolizes innocence, purity and the fleeting nature of life. The heart-shaped balloon evokes love and hope. The work has become emblematic of Banksy’s art and is often interpreted in different ways by viewers.

Everyday life

This artwork shows a chimpanzee sitting on a Coca-Cola crate, holding a paintbrush dripping with red. On the wall in the background, vibrant with bright colours and layers of torn paper, the striking phrase “Follow Your Dreams” appears in bold red letters. The powerful contrast between the animal and the message suggests a subtle critique of modern society, an invitation to pursue one’s dreams in spite of obstacles.

Jonone

JonOne’s works are defined by a total occupation of space, where white simply does not exist. His rich, deep palette plays on contrast and layers of colour. His practice combines symmetry and asymmetry, repetition and spontaneity, while maintaining perfect control of the gesture. On each canvas, the inscription “JonOne R” or “JonOne Rock” can be found.

Street

Futé wanted to make his street work more accessible and less ephemeral. His practice focuses mainly on the form and assembly of letters, which always reveal a word, a thought – here, the word “street.”
