Ryan Travis Christian Art
American, b. 1983
Ryan Travis Christian is a contemporary American artist best known for his intricate drawings, which often feature humorous and surreal imagery. Born in 1983 in the suburbs of Chicago, Christian was interested in art from a young age, but it wasn't until he discovered drawing that he found his true passion.
Christian's early drawings were heavily influenced by the punk and metal music scenes of the 1990s, as well as underground comics and graffiti art. He began experimenting with different styles and techniques, and soon developed a unique visual language that blended elements of pop culture, surrealism, and abstraction.
After studying art at the Illinois Institute of Art and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Christian moved to Los Angeles in 2009 to pursue his career as an artist. There, he began exhibiting his work in galleries and group shows, and quickly gained a following for his innovative and engaging drawings.
Christian's drawings are often composed of intricate patterns and textures, which he builds up layer by layer using graphite and ink. He is particularly skilled at creating optical illusions and trompe l'oeil effects, which give his work a sense of depth and dimensionality.
In addition to his drawings, Christian has also explored other media, including sculpture, painting, and installation. His sculptural works often incorporate found objects and everyday materials, and are characterized by a playful and irreverent sensibility.
Christian has exhibited his work extensively throughout the United States and internationally, including at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and the Royal Academy of Arts in London. He has also been featured in numerous publications and media outlets, including Artforum, The New York Times, and The Huffington Post.
Despite his success, Christian remains committed to exploring new ideas and pushing the boundaries of his art. He continues to create innovative and engaging work that challenges viewers' perceptions and expectations, and has established himself as one of the most exciting and dynamic artists working today.(Biography provided by Artetrama)

Further Background:
BE@RBRICKs are a form of collectible toy that resemble a cross between LEGO and well, a bear. These block-style figurines boast teddy bear-style heads that have become an integral pillar of the collectible toy scene. In fact, it wouldn’t be so far-fetched to say that it almost single-handedly carved out the fad of toy collecting in modern times, treading the very fine line between toy and art. Since its inception, BE@RBRICKs have become one of the most recognizable characters in the world, and some of the most sought after.

"HEY MAN, I'M JUST TRYING TO PUSH THROUGH THIS SHIT" Contemporary Pop Painting
By Ryan Travis Christian
Located in Houston, TX
Contemporary figurative painting by Chicago-based artist Ryan Travis Christian. This piece is included in a 2023 group exhibition, "Friend of a Friend," curated by Vincent Di Nguyen at Reeves Art and Design.
Artist Biography: Ryan Travis Christian’s 1990’s suburban Chicago upbringing offered up absurd experiences which he uses as fuel for the surreal personal narratives in his pop-culture-influenced artwork. Impacted by Chicago-style figuration, Christian focuses on the paradoxical relationship between childish cartoons and ominous messages, musing on the technological and material obsolescence of his inspiration. Vintage political cartoons and hand-drawn animation influence Christian’s detailed vignettes - including works by Ub Iwerks, Max Fleischer...
