David Choe - 'Nothing To Declare'

ARTIST STATEMENT

I am a typical artist, so I’m definitely my own worst enemy, my irritable bowel syndrome being a close second, I self destruct constantly, I suicide bomb my own shit weekly, and destroy everything that is good and pure in my life. I love and hate L.A. I was born and raised here, this is the city where I first fought, fucked, farted, and rioted. I fucking love the shit out of this city and I hate it with all my heart. This is the city that never gave me an art show so I had to exhibit at an ice cream parlor. I want to burn this city to the ground. This is the city that came out in hundreds to see my movie premiere and made my parents proud. I want to face fuck this city. Either way it's been way too long Los Angeles, and I’m sorry I had to leave in the first place, but you were really annoying the shit out of me, but I forgive you, I’m sorry I left you when you needed me most, i've seen these horrible atrocious art shows you’ve been subject to, I seen these wacked out gimmicky douchey group shows and art walks you been sexually and mentally harassed by. I’m here to tell you, I’m coming soon and maybe you’ll appreciate me and not to take me for granted this time. Let's make the dysfunction work for us, ok ? I promise to try harder if you try harder. It’s been 6 long year since my last show here in Los Angeles when you fucked me and I left you. In that time I seen things, I’ve heard things, I’ve felt things I’ve never felt before, I been hitch hiking all over the globe, I been to Japanese jails, African jnugles, Chineses torture chambers, the Whitehouse, and to all 7 levels of hell and back. In April 2010 I will have my first solo art show in BEVERLY HILLS with Lazarides. I will take all my love, all my hate, all my pain, all my rage, all my suffering and all my skills and experience I've collected over the years. Everything I’ve learned in every medium from watercolors to oils to spraypaint. I’m gonna express everything I feel about this city and what it is to live and die and be born again in the city of angels… Los Angeles I’m coming home and when I come this time, I’m gonna come harder than I ever have before!!  - david choe

David Choe 'Nothing To Declare' Art Show Details

Opening: Wednesday April 23, 2010 Exhibition Runs: April 23 - May 23, 2010 Location: 320 North Beverly Drive, Beverly Hills CA 90210 Lazarides Gallery is pleased to announce artist David Choe's exhibition 'Nothing To Declare'. The extremely prolific Choe has been hard at work creating new paintings, drawings, and sculptures for the 8,000 sq ft space in Beverly Hills. Driven by an unquenchable thirst for life, Choe saps every possible drop of experience - good or bad - out of his tremendous adventures. From incarceration in a Tokyo jail to hitchhiking down the Mississippi River via paddleboat, freight train hopping city to city and hunting for dinosaurs in the Congo jungle, David weaves these encounters into his work projecting a dramatic and fantastical, often sexually explicit, vision of the world. As one of the most technically proficient artists around today, no media is left untouched. Utilizing a combination of spray paint, oil, acrylic, watercolor, gouache and urine, Choe works his magic on wood, cardboard, polyurethane and canvas. From the artist who first exhibited in an ice-cream parlor, expect no less than a sensory melting pot of life seen through his eyes:

“I will take all my love all my hate all my pain all my rage, all my suffering and all my skills and experience I’ve collected over the years everything I’ve learned in every medium from watercolors to oils to spray paint I’m gonna express everything I feel about this city and what it is to live and die and be born again in the city of angels..."
