Jason Alper is poised to become one the art world's most celebrated, and talked about new artists with his avant-garde and ingenious debut, IT'S ALL BACK ON at Guy Hepner.
Alper was born and raised in England. A “cockney boy” who was exposed and inspired by an array of cultures, from the unrefined streets of East London, to the historic grandeur of Knightsbridge, his life was and is an ongoing dichotomy.
Alper, for the past decade, has been an influencer in the world of popular culture. Collaborating with Sacha Baron Cohen, he is known as a fearless costume designer with an artistic and irreverent eye, and for creating the iconic and memorable characters of Ali G, Borat and Bruno. Always one to push the envelope, Alper made the decision to use his inventiveness by expressing his talents in a new medium, but one that has always been at his core, art.
Alper will be exhibiting 20 pieces of art in varied mediums and materials combining his cutting edge vision of innovation, accessibility and of course a strong element of satire. IT'S ALL BACK ON is already creating a buzz in the industry with some of Hollywood's elite seeking to purchase pieces prior to the opening. Alper's featured pieces include controversial and out of the box works such as “What Would Jesus Wear,” “Luxury Lego” and “Mr. Pink.”
IT'S ALL BACK ON opens April 17, 2010, exclusively at Guy Hepner, in West Hollywood.
