BRIMHEIM - PREVIOUSLY KNOWN AS FRANKA - ON A ROLL

Another The Triangle Project artist has gone from The Underground to Mainstream! It is Helena Heinesen Rebensdorff, who previously used the artist name "Franka" as her musical alterego. The name Franka came from her father names Frank, whereas her new name "Brimheim" is from her mother. The difference between the names, have also brought her to a whole new being, on many levels. As if she with this new famale energy have let go of her past, and moved in to a new more feminin future. Helena has also since her Triangle Project days, gone from Electronic Pop, to more Emo Indie Rock including herself on a raw guitar. 

As of late, she has been on Danish National Radio as "The weeks must song"

The main music magazine in Denmark sees her record release in 2021, as one of the most anticipated in Danish music.

One wonderful review after another in all the Danish music press.

POEM FOR BOYSAN YAKAR BY CLAUS ANKERSEN

HEY BOYSAN LETS GO HAVE A SMOKE AND A BEER

Fuck, Boysan

I thought you were on a selfie spree

with a dear lover, new hair or

one of those, oh boy, so boyinsan-ish

'wuhu, here's a diamond flash from a deep cave'

-ish

expressions you threw

like so many flame spears of life burning

through peoples eyes, lenses, screens, lost days and the whole

intercontinental

intersexual

inter

mingled timezone thingie you rode

like a twinsexed mercury high on a white winged horse

but, oh boy, wonderchild, Boysan

you fucking died, Boysan

riding a car on the freeway

and the selfie spree

pictorial tears of the left ones

screaming

for your presence, while you took off.

Could it be, Boysan

you took a detour, Boysan

up north to daneland, Boysan

where you once married

a worm and a bird

and stood up in high heels

in drag for the human right

to love freely

in the name of the most high

priestess, Boysan, princess, Boysan

after we shared a bottle of scotch

with the resident priest, Boysan

because it was too cool for fanatic school

Boysan

Are you sitting next to me now

watching me write this tribute

smoking

smiling

stroking my hair

waving it all off

basking on

in the sunlight, Boysan

forever

brother from another mother

let's go have a smoke and a beer.

ANTON PERICH: PLACED INTO ART HISTORY - IN THE GAP BETWEEN WARHOL AND DIGITAL ART/NEW MEDIA

“No, Wade Guyton did not invent a new paintbrush; Anton Perich did in 1978, when Guyton was six.” 

Anton Perich's latest show at Postmaster Gallery in New York, has smoothly placed him into the contemporary art world, underlining his importance into the timeline of history

ANTON PERICH'S ELECTRIC BRUSH STROKE

Anton and his Ataturk painting in Istanbul at the Istanbul Art Biennial 2005 in connection to the Skanbul Connection Project, that led up to The Triangle Project.

Anton and his "GWB" painting at ABC NO RIO Gallery in connection to the "Grounded - Was Man Meant to Fly" exhibition in 2008.

One of Anton's great inspirations is his countryman and fellow inventor Nicola Tesla 

Anton's son Tristan Perich have also performed several times in connection with The Triangle Project

Anton had a key role in the Max's Kansas City exhibition called "Art imitating Life, imitating Art" that took place at Nikolaj Kunsthal - Copenhagen Contemporary Art Center in the fall of 2004.

Within the exhibition, the Back Room from Max's Kansas City was re-created, where Anton's videos from Max's was shown, including many of the Warhol Superstars such as in the above screen of Holly Woodlawn. In the room, the original Red Neon Triangle by Dan Flavin, that was also in Max's backroom, was installed.

Anton had a separate room with his machine paintings of Andrea "Whips" Feldman, Candy Darling and Cyrinda Foxe Tyler, with a monitor showing the machine in action while painting the canvases on the wall.

Anton's classic portrait of Warhol taking a Polaroid picture of Anton, along with the Banana that currently hangs on Anton's wall in his studio.

Here the Banana with an illustration in the lower left corner of Cesarina Ferro being painted by the machine, drawn by Sasha Fuglsang Mikkelsen.

Anton also came over to Copenhagen in connection to the Copenhagen Night of Culture, where a Fashion show was held. This with the Danish designer Ann Charlotte Vengsgaard who used Anton's photos as prints for her dresses, including the one above signed by Anton on the back.

Frosty Myers was also there, creating one of his Search Light Pyramids over the 13th Century Church that hosts Nikolaj Kunsthal, while Maja Albana played LIVE on stage with her music, which Anton often listens to when painting.

Most of the above images above are also by Anton, including the right image of Max's Kansas City that was used for the 40th Anniversary of Max's in 2005 and designed by Cansu Aybar. Notice Anton in the lower right corner as a young determined man.

The above image of Misha Sedgwick is by Danish photographer Christian Holm was taken at the 40th Anniversary event for Max's. Misha is one of Anton's muses, that often can be seen in his paintings, photographs, videos and in NIGHT Magazine.

The above painting is of Fischer, from the electro band Fischer/Spooner.

In above, Anton is documenting his work at the Steve Kasher Gallery, where he showed in 2010.

Another of Anton's muses, Andrea Langdon.

Another of Anton's inspirations, Andy Warhol.

Kristina Korsholm, who is also part of The Triangle Project and of course another one of Anton's muses.

Misha Sedgewick

The amazing Croatian inventor and inspiration Nikola Tesla

In 2011, Anton created some wonderful over-sized photogram prints of Andrea, which were exhibited at Copenhagen Photo Festival.

When shown, they were printed down in size, close to the size of a Barbie doll looking like little Faries caught in flight by light.

Neke Carson and Colette are some of Anton's New York contemporaries, who over time have been recognized to have greatly inspired and influenced the New York art and underground scene.

Other than Anton's wild times at Max's Kansas City and STUDIO 54, he had his NIGHT Magazine office at above Gershwin Hotel. Here several of his films took place, he had the 10th floor with some of his classic original hand printed black and white photos along with the whole 2nd floor with a NIGHT Magazine installation.

The work shown at Anton's latest show at Postmaster Gallery are a selection of some of his most important paintings and it is with great pleasure one can read the many positive reviews and stories about the exhibition, such as:

The Village Voice's Power Painter
Purple Magazine's Studio Visit
Another Magazine's A Digital Pioneer
Miss Rosen's Electric Paintings
The Daily Servings Story
In a story about a show Anton had simultaneously on the West Coast
And finally the original Press Release that set the tone in the best possible way

Anton Perich: Electric Paintings 1978–2014 
is on view at  Postmasters Gallery through November 22, 2014.
