The invasion of the new breed at Strychnin Gallery
curated by Yasha Young and co-curated by Kasra Ghanbari
On August 10th the world‘s most evil, dangerous and depraved characters will reign Strychnin Gallery at the gathering of Villains and Assassins. Plenty of well-known character designers, creature effects artists, illustrators and CGI specialists will display masterpieces of their exceptionally infamous characters and tell stories about murder, misery and destruction. The show will give insights into the colorful personalities and backgrounds of a variety of fictional evil masterminds, who are the backbone of every fine action story and the fuel of every legendary rivalry.
These characters constantly engage millions of spectators into a love-hate relationship due to their brilliant but twisted minds, their tragic history or supernatural powers and high-tech equipment. All of these iconic figures are best known for their remarkable characteristics and obsessions. While some simply enjoy the thrill of the kill, others are just made to execute orders or even torn between what they think they must do by nature but still despise.
No matter what vicious plans and compulsions some of these malicious creatures have, Strychnin Gallery has invited the most eccentric and compelling villains to be showcased for your pleasure. Come and see them until September 9th.
Exhibiting artists are: Sacha Lees, Ben Templesmith, Toby Cypress, Paul Tobin, Greg Broadmore, Brynn Metheney, Menton 3, Ming Doyle, Jenny Frison, Riley Rossmo, Nathan Fox, Chris Newman, Richard Friend, Alberto Ruiz, Christian Gossett, Shane Pierce, George Pratt, Sho Murase, Christopher Mitten and many more.
