“Art, Music, Life, Repeat,” the solo exhibition of Fred Tieken

by | Oct 28, 2019 | Arizona, Scottsdale

Royse Contemporary presents “Art, Music, Life, Repeat,” the solo exhibition of Fred Tieken. This exhibition will feature a selection of his latest mixed media and digital works,  showcasing the expressionistic and painterly in style, love of color and line, diverse subject matter, all blended with his poignant commentary. “Painting is like baring my soul to the world,” states Tieken, whose level of emotional commitment is beautifully and vividly demonstrated in his work.
 
After a daunting 2018 filled with medical battles, Tieken has returned in full force to his art, producing two exciting new bodies of work, the “ER” and “Brainstorm” series. “Tieken’s work highlights personal subjects and shares experiences with his viewer through irony and wit,” states curator Nicole Royse. His art offers wry social observations and smart symbolism, as well as a brief glimpse into his fascinating world, fueled by his passion for life, art, and music.
 
Working from his two studios in Paradise Valley, Arizona and Venice Beach, California, Tieken’s work has been featured in more than 60 juried exhibitions and one-person shows from coast-to-coast. He also has shown in major art fairs including Aqua Art Miami, XContemporary, Spectrum Miami, LA Art Show and Palm Springs Fine Art Fair. Next up, Tieken is excited to be returning to the LA Art Show in February 2020.

Tieken Gallery presents New Works by Fred Tieken and Sabine Meyer Zu Reckendorf

by | Oct 28, 2019 | Arizona, Paradise Valley

Fred Tieken returns to Tieken Gallery with two series of work that chronicle his return to good health after recent issues – 25 pieces in all. Much of this new work is introspective and abstract, and a departure from his well-known style. Look closely and you will see photography, collage, ai in the form of digital manipulation and a few strokes of acrylic here and there.

With this show, we also are welcoming Los Angeles – based artist Sabine Meyer Zu Reckendorf to Arizona for the first time. She is best known for her playful sculptures made from industrial surplus materials. She formerly worked in the Hollywood movie industry as a special effects technician, prop maker and miniature builder.
