Matt Leines Greatest Hits
Greatest Hits is a collection of new unique multiples in the form of cut out paper puppets. Many of Matt’s favorite characters and subjects will be on view such as Tigers, Wrestling Heroes, Wrestling Tiger Heroes, Men with Strange Heads, Wrestling Heroes with Strange Heads, and More! But that’s not all! All new characters will also make their debut such as Kitty Kats, and Girls??!? This is truly a show for everyone. And it’…s all for sale. With the Holidays quickly approaching here is a perfect opportunity to get some shopping done early and cross some of those names off your list. Matt Leines Greatest Hits will feature the perfect art gifts for Men, Children, Man Children, Grandchildren, Boyfriends, Girlfriends, Friends, and all sorts of Ladies. You won’t want to miss it!
Matt Leines has shown his work all over the place. From well known party spots/art galleries in New York and Los Angeles to Spanish Museums and Japanese music festivals. He had a book come out called You Are Forgiven in 2008. This will be among his first proper showings in Philadelphia, the town he calls home, since his arrival three years ago. Sorry for the one week delay in the show opening, the artist had a little bike accident which almost left him a cyclops. For more info surf on over to www.mattleines.com
