Artists Talk with LVA: July 27, 2023

Lucy Azubuike is showing with Cheryl Chapman at Galerie Hertz this weekend and this Thursday we will be speaking with her live. Tune in to WXOX 97.1 FM/Artxfm.com each Thursday at 10 am to hear Artists Talk with LVA.

Born in 1972, Lucy Azubuike's creative work was primarily influenced by the 1980s. The 1980s were an era of increasing global capitalism, political upheaval, worldwide mass media, wealth discrepancies, and distinctive music and fashion, characterized by hip-hop and electronic pop music. 

This greatly impacted the generation of artists growing up during this era. The fall of the Berlin Wall at the end of the 1980s marked the end of the Cold War, yet the African Famine also marked the period. During this time influential art movements included Neo Geo, The Pictures Generation, and Neo-Expressionism, which took a stronghold in Germany, France, and Italy. Artists such as Anselm Kiefer, Jörg Immendorf, Enzo Cucchi, Francesco Clemente, and Julian Schnabel were key artists working during this period, alongside Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, and Kenny Scharf, who established the street art and graffiti movements, which quickly gained recognition.

Nature Inspired, works by Lucy Azubuike and Cheryl Chapman, opens at Galerie Hertz on Saturday, July 29 with a reception 1- 4 pm
