Alex Diamond has a crazy style. The comic-influenced drawings and paintings are floating around in Europe for some years. In 2009, he was part of the urban art project Artotale in Lueneburg and is in Barcelona for his current exhibition, called Demon Circus, right now. Today, I received an e-mail by Jörg from the Heliumcowboy Artspace including info about this nice video, which gives some impressions of the show, including an interesting stop-motion painting clip.
Alex Diamond is an artist who apparently lives solely through the art he creates – and vice versa. He plays mind tricks with visual aids, pleasing at one moment, disturbing in the next. Independent from styles and techniques, he mirrors life and our constant fight for possession, superiority, survival and love in an almost nonchalant way. (about Alex Diamond)
