With an amazing back catalouge of work, as well as a style that literally jumps out at you, Fintan Magee has the goods – and he’s been pretty damn prolific lately, with work springing up all across the country. You need only check out one of his recent wall sized still lifes to get an inkling of the brilliance behind this mans work, and, luckily for those who are up in Brisbane, he has a new solo show coming up at the end of the month at Jugglers Art Space.

“Perhaps you’ve noticed an increase in amazing murals around Brisbane? If you didn’t know, you are about to know about Fintan Magee! The prize winning street artist and large scale muralist will officially kick his his sophomore solo exhibition ‘House of Giants’ off at Jugglers Art Space on Friday 26 August.

The ‘House of Giants’ exhibition will showcase a vast collection of intricately detailed still life paintings, prints and installations featuring a variety of mediums, from traditional media to found and forgotten objects, breathing new life into previously loved items and playing on the thoughtlessness consumer culture.

Following recent successful group shows in Melbourne and Sydney, Fintan is back with highly progressed and eagerly awaited new works in what promises to be his most comprehensive and literally larger-than-life body of work.

In the lead up to ‘House of Giants’ Fintan has completed several enormous art installations across Brisbane, some reaching up to 3-stories high. He is currently putting the finishing touches on a huge mural which will feature as part of the exhibition and which will circumnavigate the entire Jugglers courtyard.”

Damn. Brisbane street art has it going on. Must contact teleportation company, a-sap.
