Prayer for Rain Cur8 Gallery (New York) showed work by Harif Guzman at Scope Miami Beach 2019.
Harif, from Venezuela, now lives and works in New York City. At first glance this work reminded me of a Japanese artist whose name eludes. But it is distinct from that as well. It is mainly the monochromatic aspect of the work that is similar. These pieces are acrylic on canvas.
The gallery website describes his paintings as a mix of pop art and street art. The latter is certainly true but it isn't the fancy, stylized sort of street art but the real sort of scrawl you see on the side of ignored buildings. The sort of "street art" that isn't auctioned at Sotheby's.
