Dean Zeus Colman 🇬🇧 Zeus Graffiti Art • Streetopoly

[andrewd]

Met him at Open Studio. Friendly bloke and very good at what he does. There is a classic photo on another forum showing him leaving Open Studio with some of the sculptures on the back of a flat bed van!
Hope he does well!

Seems to be a real buzz growing about this guy. I can't believe the 5 canvasses from urban angel sold out so quickly Didn't even get a sniff.

What do people think of the hand sprayed print on prescription art? It looks the absolute business. I'm amazed it hasn't sold out yet. It's effectively an original huge work of art for less than the cost of a bog standard print.

And quite right too! I worked with Zeus on and off last year and he is a top guy. I cant wait to get my ''Run". He is a big one too watch. His work is so mind blowingly detailed.

The print looks amazing, seriously good

All hand sprayed mike. Not printed. Like pez says, this is a large edition of an original really.

I agree, but I'd have nowhere to put it, I've got to clear some space for my upcoming original canvas ;D

[paulah]

Anyone have a pic / link?

[giiiant]

I want to buy it, I really do. Just don't have the £ right now. Someone post pics of his 3D work, it's jawdropping.

[Harveyn]

Pez - Love this guys stuff. If I had not bought one of his Alphabet canvases from Andrew at UA a couple of weeks back I would be all over this edition of 45. As stated above each one is an original. Saying that I am still tempted.

Edit: Good to have you back Paula....Been away anywhere nice?

[pezlow]

Yeah I haven't pulled the trigger yet either. Really really tempted. Knowing my luck I will delay doing so and before you know it BAM all sold out.

Why didnt you buy one of mine last year!! I had the letter G oh well, at least it all gos back to zeus!

[Harveyn]

Sorry Carl....Did not see that one. Was it the original G-Man canvas? These are prints on canvas with characters hand printed. Great value at £600.

[pezlow]

Nice little vid of him setting up the open studio stuff here:

[pezlow]

Yeah nice to see someone who has been grafting away for some time getting the recognition he deserves.

[craigf]

Quite an amazing walk through of making the print up there as well, very nice

Absolutely. Great artist.

Got some proofs of a silkscreen we never published, better get him to sign them!!!!!!

[pramface]

the 'buzz' which started today you mean?

his pencil drawings were sitting around at nelly duff for months gathering dust, and they were great pieces, totally ignored.

nice to see the hype machine grinding into action once more

Yep and his stuff sat on my site for a while too but I think the point you are missing is that Zeus had two releases today. Many discovered him at the Open studio before christmas and are really enjoying this work.

I think the "hype" thing just doesnt wash. People have been talking about his work more and more since the open studio. When you post that people are hyping the work, I think that you will find may of those"hypers" dont own his work (apartfrom my proofs, which I will get him to sign because I am a crazy capitalist) so what are they gaining from that? Nothing. You have people discovering an artist and writing about it.

Those sketches did hang around, did you buy one?

It was all hand painted, no printing.

Astounding piece of work.

[Prescription Art]

Zeus is awesome, and has so many ideas for this year it's terrifying. When he has a solo show it'll blow your minds!

Here's a video of the stencil being sprayed...

[seidbereit]

Is there a show planned?

Great vid! Love the way he sprays over his hand to get different effects.

[urbanangel]

We will be putting on a few shows throughout 2008.

Zeus will be part of a group show and we are also looking at a solo show later in the year.

Thank you.

Urban Angel

[steve]

[gozgoz]

not digging this at all.

the style is far too Wildstyle NY graffiti style for my liking...

[irf2112]

I know quite a bit about most of the artists on POW, and own have seen exhibited work from several. However, Zeus is the one that I know nothing about. Could somebody please 'educate' me. I do like his piece, 'Error System' - But it would be nice to view his other work.

[urbanangel]

Something new from Zeus

Today we received a new canvas that Zeus had been working on for some time now

It's a 76cm x 76cm Giclee (I hear you scream) on canvas

It is then hand painted to give it that special something

The man (zeus) is hand painted, along with some of the tress, the shadows and the spray cans laying around the floor

It's impossible to tell the whole thing isn't painted...it looks amazing in the flesh

This piece is sold, we have four more from this edition. Each one will have different hand finishing, so no two will be the same

Hope you like it

No flash

[Prescription Art]

Very nice indeed! Love the oversized spraycans...
