Nicolas Party
Represented by Hauser and Wirth as of 2019, Nicolas Party is celebrated for his vibrant, surreal landscapes, portraits, and still lifes. Starting as a graffiti artist and graduating from the Glasgow School of Art, Party has developed a unique and instantly recognisable style that blends classical techniques with bold, modern aesthetics. He predominantly uses pastels to craft dreamlike scenes that exude whimsical and impactful visuals, leading to showcases at prestigious venues such as the Hirshhorn Museum and the Magritte Museum in recent years.
