- Harold Fox - A man in his 70s, Harold Fox was a virtual unknown to the current gallery market before his first exhibit at Hyaena. He could easily hang alongside some of today's acknowledged Lowbrow masters but Harold, a retired commercial artist and trained illustrator, did not take that path. Instead he followed his own sense of direction, working and raising two sons while painting in his free time, a large body of unseen work that is essentially brilliant. Contemporary and edgy, it's noir without pretense, at times both whimsical and frightening yet always compelling. Now in his retirement years, with his creativity at a peak, his son Heinrich recognized this and sought out to find a larger audience for his father's artwork. We are lucky that he did. The Pulp Lowbrow feel of the work has a darkness that hints of both deviance and experience. And through it all, his paintings have a very distinct narrative. Skewed perspectives and a cast of repeating characters (with the artist, himself, often appearing central to the story) play out each tale through Harold's personal mythology. The work is heavy with nods to Southern California, referencing landscape and culture along with nautical and aeronautical elements. The factors that influence Harold Fox's art are as widespread as the man's lifespan. From antique automobiles, 1940's style, and German heritage to Vietnam and the bohemian era, there is an intense introspection and fearlessness in storytelling that you only get from an artist who has nothing to prove. This is pure. This is honest. This is true art. Original Artwork For Sale (click image for larger picture): All of Harold Fox's frames are either hand made, hand embellished, or both.
