Fred Tieken will exhibit at the Icehouse Gallery, Phoenix AZ

PHOENIX - March 24, 2017 - PRLog -- Fred Tieken has been invited to exhibit his artwork at the beautiful Icehouse Gallery in the heart of the Warehouse District in Downtown Phoenix. Fresh off his exhibitions at LA Art Show and Miami Basel, this marks Tieken's first exhibition in Phoenix, AZ in over a year. Tieken is thrilled to be exhibiting alongside a talented line up of artists including Jayme Blue, Larry Ortega and Joe Holdren in what promises to be a stellar show with a dynamic combination of art.

Tieken's artwork is expressionistic and painterly in style, highlighting personal subjects and experiences through irony and wit. The artist's love of color, bold lines and mixed media are seamlessly blended with his wry social commentary and smart symbolism. Tieken's art allows the viewer a brief glimpse into his colorful and dazzling world where one senses a pure excitement and passion for life, art, and music. "Painting is like baring my soul to the world," states Tieken whose level of emotional commitment is beautifully and vividly demonstrated in his work.

Working from his two studios in Venice Beach, California and Paradise Valley, Arizona, Tieken's work has been featured in more than 60 juried exhibitions and one-person shows from coast-to-coast. He also has shown in major art fairs including Aqua Art Miami, XContemporary, Spectrum Miami, LA Art Show and Palm Springs Fine Art Fair.
