We are incredibly excited to be welcoming back artist Zombiedan to our Edinburgh gallery for the 3rd year running, on Saturday the 27th of October and we are sure this one will be another huge success!
Why are we so thrilled to be hosting a personal appearance with this incomparable urban artist for another year? Well if you have attended his last two personal appearances you'll totally understand why, but if not then not to worry because we are here to give you all the lowdown :)
Back in 2016, Zombiedan who was little known at the time - came to Edinburgh to launch his collection of originals at his first ever solo show. We ourselves were totally blown away by the series, and were eager to spend a few days prior to his arrival getting the gallery in order and making it perfect for the event, and had started to hang the works on the run up to the big day. The reaction that week was unbelievable and by the time Zombiedan arrived on Friday, 60% of the collection had already pre-sold! Clients were blown away by the bright bold works which featured the likes of Audrey Hepburn wearing an Adidas tracksuit, David Bowie and Star Wars inspired pieces - and it wasn't long before word had spread and our event ended up being our busiest for a brand new artist EVER, so much so that it was a complete sell out after the 3 hours!
Then in November 2017, Zombiedan was back in the capital once more with a brand new collection and new techniques to showcase in our gallery to his legion of fans which was quickly building and building. This included depictions of an edgy Marilyn Monroe, Wonder Woman and some of his own imagery that he'd created. He had even sprayed up some musical instruments, shields and helmets which completely caught everyones attention. He had also experimented with holographic and metallic spray paints and worked with brand new compositions and colour ways - and the results were fascinating! Again, this was another extremely triumphant day and we definitely celebrated this in style afterwards!
So... with all that in mind we are sure you will be wondering what we will have in store for you this year? Well Zombiedan has been working tirelessly to come up with groundbreaking new imagery and techniques for this event and we know this is going to blow your minds! He has just released a fantastic new collection of works just ahead of his appearance called 'Popculcher' which includes the likes of Prince, Iron Man, Darth Vader, and Audrey Hepburn, which will be on show here along with some brand new secret icons which will be joining the line up - which will include an exclusive Scottish themed work which has been created for the show. We've popped some sneak peeks below so you have a little inside scoop of whats to come....
With all this in mind, will you be coming to one of our hottest events of the year? If you are, or you would like any more information on this artist or his work then please email us at edinburgh@robertsonfineart.com now!!!
