After 22-years, tattoo artist and painter Vincent Castiglia has opened his own Vincent Castiglia Gallery & Custom Tattoo in Fort Lauderdale, FL. Castiglia will hold an opening party on February 22 at the gallery featuring friend and event collaborator Burton C. Bell (Ascension Of The Watchers, ex-Fear Factory).
"I am absolutely honored to be invited to Vincent's opening to view his latest work in person, SEAT OF THE SEED ATOM!" said Bell. "I am even more excited to have been asked to be the DJ of this significant event. I am looking forward to a fantastic evening with my friend to celebrate his vision!"
The Gallery will be a semi-permanent (rotating) installation of Vincent's painting, sculptures, and limited edition items, hosting Annual solo exhibitions of curated artists, and bi-annual juried group exhibitions, open for submission to all fine artists working in the realm of Surrealism.
The opening also marks the long overdue release of 36 new limited edition, Large-Format (original painting size) as well as Standard-Sized Editions, now making the work accessible for every price point. The Large-Format editions are extremely limited (12 pieces per edition and will never be printed again). These are as closest to owning an original at full-scale as possible for 1/20th of the price. Standard-Sized limited editions (limited to 180-230) as well as open edition poster prints also available in larger number.
Special exhibitions aside, Vincent's original paintings will be viewable by appointment only, inquires can be emailed. A very special limited edition of only four, Autopsy of The Soul, 16" x 20 Giclee canvas prints of will be offered at the opening only, first come/serve, which Vincent will be signing and personalizing for four collectors.
Vincent will be opening his tattoo books again officially at the forthcoming flagship location, VCG, by appointment, beginning in March. The custom-Tattoo studio will also host established guest artists year-round, as well as emerging talent working in the custom arena. Tattoo portfolio submissions can also be emailed: [email protected].
