Opus Underground

Ben Frost

(9 Oct 2008 - 3 Nov 2008)

Opus Gallery is proud to present a solo show by Sydney artist Ben Frost. He is best known for his confronting and often controversial Pop Art paintings. Using a ‘collage’ style of unlikely juxtapositions, his dynamic paintings are complex mash-ups of popular culture that savagely critique our media and advertising obsessed society.

Frost is a man with a lot going on in his head. By subverting mainstream icons from advertising, entertainment and politics he creates very alluring, very disturbing snapshots of modern life. What else would you expect from a man who faked his own death to publicise an exhibition, Ben Frost is dead!
