This August The Trace Gallery presents ‘Casa Grande’, a solo show by Los Angeles-based artist Dave Kinsey. Born in 1971 in Pittsburgh, Kinsey is an established figure of the urban art genre, as well as a renowned designer. Following in the footsteps of artists like Francesco Clemente, Louise Bourgeois and Andy Warhol, he has been commissioned by Absolut Vodka to create a bottle design, available this year as a limited edition, and he is also one of the big names to have had art reproduced on the Californian Kenwood Vineyard label. It’s no wonder that in 2012 Complex magazine named him one of the 100 most influential artists of the past decade. In addition, Kinsey co-founded the design studio BLK/MRKT in 1997 and BLK/MRKT Gallery, which would later become Kinsey/DesForges, in 2001.
