STATION 16 @ PAPIER16
Station 16 Gallery will be participating for the first time in the Papier art fair, taking place April 22nd - 24th. This year's edition will be held at Hangar 16 in the Old Port, in 2016 no less – all of the stars have aligned and we are very excited!
Matt Feigin, President of K-Way North America and local Montrealer, took an interest in contemporary street art about two years ago when he first saw the work of Stikki Peaches. He contacted us at Station 16 to buy a piece, and his interest in contemporary street art has only grown since. He has become a small collector. He now owns pieces by Whatisadam, as well as a series by Peter Andrew & Derek Blais, purchased while at The Scope Art Fair in NYC. Matt actually sponsored the renowned Instagram street art curators Instagrafite to join us in New York to cover Scope and the week in NYC. That visit led to a series of devoted Instagram posts called the K-Way Culture walk. Check them out on Instagram with #KWayCulture.
Station 16 Gallery is excited return to the Big Apple this weekend to exhibit at SCOPE Art Show. As one of the largest contemporary art fairs, SCOPE engages with an increasingly international audience and attracts visitors worldwide. Known for its ability to forecast visual trends and emerging artists, SCOPE has a history of innovative curation and presentation. This year marks SCOPE's 15th anniversary of the art fair's New York exhibition, occurring simultaneously with The Amory Show. With 60 galleries from across the globe exhibiting at SCOPE, Station 16 will feature all local artists to showcase emerging talent in contemporary, Canadian art.
“I hadn't picked up a paintbrush or spray can for almost a decade when I first starting fucking around with drawing and painting again,” wrote Hanksy, the pun-master known for his quirky mash-ups of Tom Hanks’ head on various animal bodies. (Yup, you read that right.) “I constantly dodge the label when talking about myself in interviews. In my opinion, it's a heavy term. One that I'm still struggling to figure out. Some people call me an artist; most do not. I find that those who spend bags and bags of money getting a degree - which stamps them official artists - have a more specific and hardened definition. And that's cool. I guess the general consensus is that to be called an artist, you must be creative. I'll take that ticket.”

While street artists tend to keep their personal lives private, the Background Noise series on the Bomarr Blog adds another dimension to the identity of street artists: their favorite music. The series features weekly interviews with street artists along with a curated playlist by the respective artist. For street art fans like us, this is one of the coolest blog ideas we have come across. Over the past 10 months, the blog has featured a number of Station 16 artists, including Stikki Peaches, Enzo & Nio, gilf!, with the latest edition highlighting Whatisadam.
