LOVE ME TENDER

CURATORS’ QUOTE

‘What French born LA artist with a fine art/fashion spin would not choose the Hamptons for the launch of his world ‘Love Me Tender’ tour?   Not Punk Me Tender.   Welcome to the world of vibrancy.   As Henri Matisse said, "Color helps to express light—not the physical phenomenon, but the only light that really exists, that in the artist's brain." 

And into that brain we go for this solo exhibit.  Beauty, spirit, and transformation are the major themes that come up in Punk Me Tender’s art. His creations are fully instinctual, as in no rules.  Butterflies have become the artist’s hallmark embodying freedom, wonder and change but that is only part of his always evolving oeuvre.  His work is exhibited in over 30 high-end galleries around the world and is sought after by luxury hotel brands like Miami South Beach, SLS and Nobu.  Celebrity collectors include Khloé Kardashian, Paris Hilton, Kylie Jenner, Mariah Carey and Dave Navarro.  Live art performances are also part of the artist’s signature style and the one at our opening on June 17th promises to be ‘très magnifique.’’  'Andrea McCafferty + Kat O'Neill. Co-Owners/Co-Directors
