Royal Skullduggery
Simon Raab's work is among art that stood out among hundreds of other artists during Art Basel week.
Art Miami and all the other art shows during Art Basel all have great art. In fact, you can become overwhelmed. You might find yourself, after a few days, walking right past works of pure genius.
This is the state I was in at this point whilst making my way through Art Miami--perhaps the most high end (i.e. priciest) of the satellite shows.
Then I saw Raab's work. I know I repeat this with regularity but these images and videos do not fully capture the brilliance of these pieces, which are polymers on steel. The media used make this unique but they are aesthetically beautiful as well.
Galerie Peter Zimmermann in Mannheim Oststadt, Germany. The gallery has been open (although not in this location) since 1993. The gallery exhibits and focuses on informal art and abstract color field painting—along with similar artists. Their artists are a mix of established and new artists, which I wish were true of more galleries. They work with museums, art shows and other cultural institutions to get the word out about their artists. They want you to see these works.
Raab is orignally from France but currently lives in Santa Barbara, California.

I confess to not getting all the names of the work. I apologize.
