After recent years of an artistic success I hope the competition in which more than 150 artists from across the country have entered their works of art, artrepublic expect even more overwhelming response his street art contest. And werent be disappointed by what they saw.

Grant Lost Originally DeJong and winner of more than 250 entries to the competition, was the wild card in this campaign confessed years. His apparent windfall to be selected, let alone win, testified that his modest attitude and liberal artrepublics selection process.

Artrepublic was incorporated into the sample and the graphic arts community for over 20 years, with two galleries set in Brighton and Soho, and act as ideal platform for aspiring artists to display their creative skills in the art world. The streets of the art competition was once again a handful Update diamond in the rough, but none stands out more than DeJong lost not grant, which the artist shares artrepublics humble thanks.

With all honesty that never considered winning a contest. I entered both my life and in 42 years has never won anything, so winning Art in the street after seeing the high level of work is a true joy, "said Grant. So the contest was announced as street art, I thought theyd choose a more urban rather than a traditional oil painting.

Although the street art, of course, synonymous with graffiti and poster art, street art term has become a little more committed in recent years. Post-graffiti, for example, has always struggled to distinguish himself from territorial graffiti vandalism blind but fortunately, it is now legitimate public space for use as a canvas. In addition, street installations are becoming more common due to the effect the 3-D images used to manipulate the landscape without tarnish. Another essential element is the non-basic authorization, then the artists can leave their mark without a trial or an environmentalist diatribe upset

The wall that projects are operating subsidies, near myhotel, compared to retire Street in the heart of North Laine in Brighton, is controlled by artrepublic exposed and acts as a perfect (and legitimate) as a platform for the artist. This is obviously breaking the subsidy is desirable and necessary for some time, but an opportunity for creative achievement that came before.

I painted my entire adult life and even managed to earn his living at times, but I can decrease the chances of the Venice Biennale once (a major art exhibition of contemporary takes place once every two years) because I did not know what it was! Grant admits. I was quite young and the ship, certainly more than the ship, so I often wonder if?. But I also believe that the decision has been worn for a reason and now my time to some success.

However, I am still not different from many other artists talented living in Brighton and in general the fight, Grant. The arts scene in Brighton is certainly flourishing, but I often wonder if theres money to support it. It is what an art contest as a street helps promote local artists, not to mention the fact that it has raised the profile of a charity as well.

Charity Street Smart The organization has been a fundraising system that works in close collaboration with participating restaurants to provide more than 90 regional organizations, homeless charities and financial support needed between November and December. This event occurs in cities in the UK and wanted to highlight artrepublic the contribution of StreetSmart Brighton involvement with his campaign.

When we designed the competition, we thought it might Street Art provide an ideal platform to raise awareness of homelessness in the United Kingdom and Smart Street have been very enthusiastic one day, "said Andrew Milledge, Director of Marketing artrepublic. They were very proud to contribute to the cause of a charity that does something very good and overwhelmed by the quality of the participants. The four judges, Pure Evil, Inki, Ben Eine, Static, was a challenge to choose the winner.

Although Grant was already familiar with Street Smart, who was not aware of the Street Art Competition until a good friend taught him everything that decorates his house as a favor, the exercise of his artistic ability in a more pragmatic.

Yes, I must confess that, fortunately, a friend informed me as I competition, ironically, had a brush in my hand, "said Grant. Often disappear from the radar screen and work in my studio, it is not surprising at all that this was new to me. I paint almost constant, but if not Im not that sometimes the use a furnace to produce ceramic pieces. I found a gallery with a studio in the port for six years and the ceramics were my main result. However, the paint is my passion.

And when asked what impact this passion: Well, Bacon is my favorite painter, but my influences are varied, but relevant for me, "Grant said. I especially like Otto Dix and Max, and Beckerman. painters like Matta and Tanguy influence of futurism at first, but in reality most of my day to day influences are my friends and fellow artists that person never heard of – and my wife Jacqueline.

During the week People will start to listen imminent DeJong Grant, the guy whose painting clearly sends a wall in Brighton, which may have been lost somehow, but it has certainly been found.
