Renowned "dog artist" Skip Hartzell creates art inspired by man's best friend

South Florida artist Skip Hartzell creates large paintings, sculptures and drawings that capture the essence of “dog”, all of the work is rich with intricacies of color and technique. His painterly expression captures each dog’s own personality with beautiful textures, line and brush strokes using mixed media to bring each dog to life. He is best known for his unique sculptures recognized immediately by their distinct form and style that only Hartzell can produce. 

'Studio Floor', Charcoal and Flashe on Paper, 60 x 42 Inches.

Art Collectors, art aficionados and dog lovers alike are experiencing Skip Hartzell’s Dogs at CityPlace in West Palm Beach.

“Dogs are always in the moment. Although nothing in life has held my attention longer or has been more fascinating to me than dogs, my work is about much more than that. It is about form, movement, color and texture. The dogs are a recognizable common denominator that allows me to communicate my joy of living, passions and sentiments,” explained Skip Hartzell.

Pigalle Gallery In Miami Presents A Unique Art Exhibition Featuring Artists Gus Fink and Humberto Poidomani

Pigalle Gallery in Miami’s Little River Art District presents an exciting showcase of work in 'The Hall of Wonders', an exhibition of small and large-scale paintings by beloved artists Gus Fink and Humberto Poidomani.


Pigalle Gallery is pleased to announce the inaugural exhibition of visionary New York artist entrepreneur Gus Fink and award- wining Argentinian artist Humberto Poidomani in a one-of-a-kind, highly anticipated art exhibition. 'The Hall of Wonders' opens with a reception on Thursday, May 16th from 6-9pm. The exhibit is curated by DAM, The Directed Art Modern, and runs through June 30, 2019 featuring the latest small and large-scale paintings by Gus Fink and Humberto Poidomani.


Poidomani’s work explores the journey of Dante through inferno followed by Purgatorio guided by the ancient Roman poet Virgil and Paradiso guided by Beatriz whom the artist in this case symbolizes as the Virtue itself. The rendition of this journey is displayed over the city of Florence. “Sometimes when I open my eyes, I see Hell, I quickly take my brushes and paints and I start painting… slowly I start to calm down. At times I see people walking, but they are just bodies floating. We live in a world of transparent lies and if we have lost the paradise, why should we pay the debt for having lost it if perhaps never existed?”, explained artist Humberto Poidomani.


Poidomani has presented his works in numerous museums, galleries and art fairs. His solo shows include a retrospective in the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo of Salta Province, Argentina; E.C.A. Contemporary Spaces of Art in Mendoza, Argentina, and Scope New York.


Artist Gus Fink is recognized from his Art Loop exhibitions, The Oddball Art Hall at Oddity Bar, his collaboration with Spaceboy Clothing GUS FINK: Don’t Let Go. Mickey in Chaos land, Mr. Cuddless or his creepy toy brand Dr. Krinkles. His style is bizarre and unsettling, yet magnetically appealing, sometimes even cute.


“What gives us joy and inspiration can be more than words or money can ever buy. I find joy on taking what is and isn’t important and turning it into something fresh. Something new and inspiring for people to wonder on about and bring new purpose. To me good art is a good idea. It’s bringing out something that didn’t exist before into our reality. This is why I’ll rip pages from an old dictionary or comic book. Or paint on currency. From pictures that were once the most valuable thing of old families to chunks of cardboard from an Amazon box. I let the paint pour out from my soul and onto any canvas that gets tossed in my line of vision,” explained artist Gus Fink.


Pigalle Gallery is a unique space dedicated to Contemporary Art and Design in Miami’s Little River Art District. The gallery is an innovative platform nestled in a new art building and is part of the group “Little River on 75th Art Collective”, presenting solo and group exhibitions, installations, public art projects, conferences, and art publications. Pigalle Gallery is located at 360 Northeast 75th Street – Suite 122, in Miami, Florida 33138. For more information visit www.pigallegallery.com
