About the Item

With both cultural icons and world events often acting as inspiration, Soren Grau strives to communicate meaning through both figures and colors. Each of his artworks conveys both personal meaning and ambiguity, to be interpreted differently by each person. The pure pleasure of creating is the driving force behind his painting. He believes that art need not be complicated, and that art is for everyone. This 20 inch square painting is framed in a white modern frame and is ready to hang. The size and price include the frame. Convenient local Los Angeles area shipping. Affordable U.S. and worldwide shipping available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included. Soren Grau is an artist from Denmark who has lived and worked in Los Angeles for the past 12 years. He paints in a street art-inspired Neo-expressionist style inspired by artists such as Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat. Rather than focusing on mainstream art-house, Soren’s work instead engages the viewer with color and symbolism. “Whatever an artist does, they put a piece of their soul into the artwork,” explains Grau. “In that way you can show who you really are. You can make yourself individual by creating something unique that is a part of you but that can also be a part of those who see it and experience it.” Soren, who is a self-taught artist, has during his lifelong career won numerous industry awards for his aesthetically pleasing style, graphics and colors. His artworks are represented by Artspace Warehouse Los Angeles and have been collected by international companies, including Red Bull, HBO, Toyota, and FX (Fox), as well as by private art lovers.
