Charlie Owens is part of Art Whino's THE TAKEOVER happening at Art Basel Miami this December. One of the over 20 artists that will be working on live installations and workshops throughout the weekend. We are hoping to go this year and cover this for RVA.
Charlie Owens is an Atlanta based artist influenced by today's modern pop and street art. His work encompasses a mixed media process that utilizes illustration, graphic design and fine art skills producing a bold iconic style, all his own. He achieves his look by way of screen printing, stenciling, wheat paste, and the use of a wide range of acrylics, inks and other materials. By combining his love of illustration and design, Charlie has made a name for himself with his stylized female forms and over-sized murals that showcase the depth and dimension of his talent. - Art Whino

Art Whino is pleased to announce it will be joining the Multiversal show this year! In conjunction with the Miami Art Basel and surrounding Art Fairs, we will be presenting THE TAKEOVER in Multiversal's outdoor courtyard using our “Elite Delta Force” of artistic leaders to create a unique 11,800 square foot outdoor art exhibition packed with an enormous series of installations/murals. The exhibition will be located in the heart of the Wynwood Arts District along with other accompanying art fairs. 20+ artists will paint large mural/installations around 8’ high and 20’ wide each. Each artist will also exhibit smaller artwork in their installation areas. There will be live painting events throughout the exhibition and under the umbrella of the THE TAKEOVER, will be THE KICKBACK LOUNGE featuring custom furniture with artists' artwork as the upholstery, full scale arcade games featuring customized artwork on the cabinets, and a full bar and snack area.
