Emma Larsson
Born in 1977 in Sweden, Emma Larsson has had a personal art studio since her teenage years. She studied art in college but did not complete her degree, so she considers herself self-taught. She has been dedicating herself to the creation of art full-time for several years now.
Emma Larsson has been exhibited in Sweden, Denmark, UK, USA and South Korea. She has done numerous collaborations in different mediums with high-profiled brands such as H&M, SOHO House London, Rahel Comey, Artpieces, and more. Her artworks have also been featured in Harper’s Bazaar, Vogue, Harper’s Magazine, and more. Larsson is part of important art collections including The Frederick R. Weisman Art Foundation. Following a four months art residency in Mexico in early 2022 where Emma created a large body of work inspired by this estranged environment, she will have her debut solo exhibition at Simard Bilodeau in Los Angeles in September 2022.
Christina Zimpel
Christina Zimpel was born in 1961 in Perth, Western Australia. She currently resides in New York and works from her studio at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. She received her BA in graphic design at Curtin University, Western Australia. Her career began as an art director for fashion magazines such as Vogue. She eventually got out on her own as a full-time artist. She now translates her sense of humor and observations of her daily life into fruity, expressive paintings of stylish women.
Zimpel has been exhibited in group and solo exhibitions all over the world, including Australia, Europe and the United States - Los Angeles, Oakland, and New York. Her most recent work is part of Odd & Imaginary, a group exhibition presented by Simard Bilodeau Contemporary in Los Angeles.
Maria Lundström
Maria Lundström was born in 1954 in the far north of Sweden. She lived close to nature and gradually moved south to study art at Konstfack University of Arts, Crafts and Design. She currently resides in a small chapel which she converted into a studio south of Sweden.
Over the years her work has evolved in style that are recognizable today. She is now part of international exhibitions and has collaborated with Gorman Clothing (AU) for a collection of homewares designed from her paintings. Lundström has been exhibited in group and solo exhibitions in Europe and the United States; Los Angeles, Oregon, and Denmark. During the summer of 2021, she was part of Heads Full of Poetry at Simard Bilodeau Contemporary in Los Angeles.
Andrej Glusgold
Andrej Glusgold was born in 1968 in Chisinau/Moldova (USSR). He graduated from the University of Arts in Bremen. He has been living in Berlin since 1996 where he teaches as a professor of photography at the UE- University of Applied Sciences Europe since 2011.
His work includes photography, drawing and poetry. Glusgold is influenced by Shamanism, outsider art, religious and folk art. His driving force as an artist is the quest for spirituality. The images are visual recordings of the complex processes inside our psyche. In 2021, Andrej Glusgold was part of the group exhibition Heads Full of Poetry, presented at Simard Bilodeau Contemporary in Los Angeles.
Jack Breakfast
Born in 1975, Jack Breakfast is a multimedia artist who was born and raised in Toronto, Canada. He started his career as a musician, playing piano. Later in his life, Breakfast’s heart eased and opened. In 2016, the Turner exhibit at the Art Gallery of Ontario changed his perception of life. Staring at Turner’s impressionistic yellow going into different tones of yellows pushed him to go to an art supplies store for the first time. There, he purchased papers, pigments, panels, and other art material. Since then, Jack has been painting everyday.
Breakfast has had two solo shows in Toronto: at The Press Club and Jinks Art Factory. In 2019, his work was exhibited at the Toronto Outdoor Art Fair. For the first time outside Canada, Jack will be part of Odd & Imaginary, a group exhibition opening in July 2022 at Simard Bilodeau Contemporary in Los Angeles.
