Woodbury House unveils its latest addition to its collection; the renowned Los Angeles street art pioneer DEFER. The private art gallery, located in the heart of Mayfair, London, is committed to promoting and preserving the art form and showcasing only the finest examples of works from artists who have made significant contributions to its history.
DEFER, or Alex ‘DEFER’ Kizu, born in 1975, is an iconic figure of the Los Angeles street art movement since the nineteen eighties. His unique ability to create complex and mesmerising letterforms is unparalleled.
DEFER’s inclusion in the gallery’s collection is a tribute to his exceptional contributions to the world of street art, making him a celebrated figure in the history of LA graffiti. His highly detailed examination of line and colour, which he refers to as his ‘Spiritual Language,’ stems from his culture and connection to graffiti and the urban landscape. This profound artistic language distorts the lines between street art and fine art and has earned him international recognition, including features at The Getty Museum, L.A. Louver, and Beyond the Streets.
Known for his unique style and vision, DEFER has earned a dedicated following among art enthusiasts and collectors, making his works highly sought after. The gallery is thrilled to showcase DEFER’s exceptional work to a wider audience, believing that his inclusion will further promote and preserve the art form.
DEFER’s partnership with Woodbury House appears to be the perfect match, with an already impressive list of accomplishments, including collaborations with museums and brands.
The announcement of DEFER as the latest addition to the Woodbury House collection has generated tremendous excitement among art enthusiasts and collectors alike.
The last two exhibitions at Woodbury House, featuring “Mr Wonderful” by Richard Hambleton and “The Return of The Rat” by Blek le Rat, were both sold-out successes. Collectors are sure to be eagerly anticipating the chance to acquire DEFER’s works as well.
Woodbury House is confident that visitors will be impressed by the quality and creativity of DEFER’s pieces. The selection of DEFER is a testament to the gallery’s dedication to showcasing only the finest street art from artists who have made significant contributions to the history of the medium.
Overall, the inclusion of DEFER in the Woodbury House collection is a significant milestone for both the artist and the gallery, and the partnership between the two is expected to be highly successful.
