CRAIG COSTELLO – NEW WORK

Posted on 2020-02-10

Minimalist, experimental, intellectual and primal. Black and white abstraction. Formal and yet technically avant-garde. Vibrant, refined, gestural – in and out of control. Arrested motion. Perfected through repetition, but never perfect. The work of Craig Costello is all about equilibrium. Surface, movement, paint, application and reaction.

Craig Costello, born 1971 in New York City, USA, lives and works in Brooklyn, USA. Recent exhibitions include Beyond the Streets, New York, USA, 2019, Fundamentals, Rouen, France, 2019 and WHQ, agnès b. Galerie Boutique, New York, USA, 2017. Costello is the founder, owner and operator of Krink Inc. – innovating the finest inks, high quality paint markers and specialty artist equipment for interior and exterior use. Costello uses his own paints and tools – modified fire extinguishers, garden sprayers and shoe polish bottles – in his paintings, sculpture and large-scale, site-specific installations.
