Art | Collaborative Art Panel

Today we learned about abstract art and Thank You x, an street artist from Los Angeles. ThankYouX first became well known on the streets of Los Angeles in 2009 for his large iconic Andy Warhol spray paint stencils. Inspired by the pop tropes and bright colours of that NYC art scene, ThankYouX has exhibited paintings and sculptures in London, Los Angeles, Miami, New York and Hong Kong.  Now using his Street style in a more abstract way, he has been getting new attention for his geometric mixed media cube paintings. He was the official artist of the 2016 Global Citizen music festival in New York.

After the we watched the video and discuss about abstract art, students started creating a collaborative cube drawing, similar to Thank You x's style. Have a look:
