Great news for one of our favorite artists, Vhils. The Ayrton Senna mural by Vhils will be displayed permanently at the newly renovated Grand Prix Museum in Macau, China. Known for its exceptional exhibitions of motorsports the museum opened to public on 1 April 2021. The Grand Prix Museum originally opened in 1993, however has been closed since 2017 for renovation. That’s a significant endorsement that is sure to reflect downstream in the value of all of Vhils' artwork.  I expect even broader horizons for Vhils in the next 3 years. Vhils first gained prominence when his work of a face carved into a wall appeared alongside a picture by street artist Banksy at the Cans Festival in London in 2008. A photograph of him creating the work appeared on the front page of The Times. You can see profile pages of a few of our Vhils artworks here at SoCo Modern in the links below.

"One day I was visiting one of my watch dealers and noticed a bucket of old watch parts and asked him what the bucket was for, he told me that it was his garbage and asked if I was interested in it. I took that bucket home and started to tinker, and eventually started making Cufflinks from these spare parts." - Dan Tanenbaum ( Source ) And now look at what Dan has been up to... he's dropping Art Bombs.     "Time Bomb Grenades" 1 & 6     thank u @socomodern & @watchpartsmoto !! looks so dope ?????? pic.twitter.com/jxtabvQUMG — Steve Aoki (@steveaoki) April 28, 2021 [caption id="attachment_1716" align="aligncenter" width="331"] We Are With Steve Aoki... the Time Bomb Grenade artworks by Dan Tanenbaum are spectacular.[/caption] The article Dan Tanenbaum’s WatchPartsMotorcycles Time Bomb Grenades plus Steve Aoki Love is courtesy of socomodern.com from SoCo Modern Art Gallery - Feed https://socomodern.co
