COMUNE // NEW WORK BY GREGORY HAYES


The paintings in the Amalgamation series do not have a narrative, and are not suggestions of something outside of themselves. Instead, each painting evokes a concern and fascination in itself, its complexities, its visual dynamics, its achievement of manipulation and technique, and the demonstration of artistic capacity. – Gregory Hayes
Gregory Hayes (born 1980 in Buffalo, New York) is a contemporary artist based in Brooklyn, New York. Hayes began studying art with original Drop City artist Clark Richert at the Rocky Mountain College of Art + Design, where he received his BFA in Painting and was named Most Distinguished Artist. He received his MFA in Painting from the City University of New York, Brooklyn College where he studied with Vito Acconci.

COMUNE // DROP CITY TEES BY ADAM HARTEAU – SS13


A Spring & Summer 2013 feature on a couple of Drop City Contributors Adam Harteau’s latest graphic tees. 
Adam Harteau’s work influenced a large majority of our current pieces for Spring & Summer 2013. We referenced his work numerous times during the development of our collection and really wanted to mimic the adventurous essence you feel when in the presence of his work. So without hesitation we produced three of his art pieces into our graphic tee collection for Spring and Summer 2013.
Thanks Adam.
