“EXOSKELETON” Exhibition currently at GAMUT Gallery in Minneapolis, MN.

Thanks so much to the city of Minneapolis, MN and to all the folks who rolled out to @gamutgallerympls for the opening of “EXOSKELETON”. The evening was filled with amazing energy and positive vibes! Much love to @mplsartbabe and the Gamut Family for hosting us and featuring our work in their beautiful gallery. The •LIVE• purchasing link is below and also on gamutgallerympls.com. Extremely honored that so many pieces found new forever homes on opening night! 🫶

Originally introduced at the Sound of Art Exhibition in New York over 15 years ago, Monty Montgomery & @tony_philippou merged their unique artistic styles into #Kaleidoskull, blending figurative realism and abstract geometry. Tony’s contrasting realistic human and animal forms emerge out of the structure of Monty’s precise angles of bold color, textures, and shapes. Kaleidoskull’s latest series of works featured in Exoskeleton utilize insects as representations of the literal and metaphorical translation of our defense mechanisms we use to protect ourselves physically and emotionally. Together the duo constructs visual imagery that relates to our sense of wonder at the exquisite beauty of things masked, yet revealed. Each figure in their paintings and drawings is combined with an insect as a form of armor and anonymity. Monty and Tony wish to connect with viewers through their world of imagination, inspiring the audience to feel empowered and engaged with the world they have created.

Inspired by their combined love of geometric and organic forms, Montgomery and Philippou endeavored to create a new aesthetic that exhibited the beauty, strength, and contrast of the design elements intersecting women, insects, and color theory. Boundaries are intended to be pushed in the realm of art, design, and the remarkable synergy between nature and geometry as a definitive force.

I appreciate all of you very much!

A few words from Lauren Siri of 1805 Gallery. – “1805 Gallery is thrilled to offer a selection of Monty Montgomery’s original works from the Geo Series that were originally commissioned by Polychromist of the San Diego Museum of Art in 2019 for their annual “Art Alive” event. Monty’s geometric paintings are clean precise blocks of color that are effortlessly layered and intersect to create the illusion of depth. Monty Montgomery Art is known for his Geo Series, a lifelong painting exploration with endless color and shape combinations. Bright blue triangles, fire-orange squares, lime-green trapezoids are just a few of the shapes and colors that compose Monty’s paintings. He has created over 140 works in the Geo series to date. His preferred paint palette is a collection of vibrant Montana Cans (official) that he selects as he develops a painting or mural. His intuitive process demonstrates clear confidence in color and composition.”

“Brown Ballerinas For Change” collaborative mural in the FAN District of Richmond, Virginia.

The “Brown Ballerinas for Change” collaborative mural with Nico Cathcart has been completed in the Fan District of Richmond, Virginia on the corner of Main and Granby streets. The mural is inspired by the activism and power of the four young women who make up Brown Ballerinas for Change. The mural contains all four ballerinas unified together in a graceful jump with a sparrow in flight symbolizing renewal and change. We are all so thankful for the uplifting energy that Ava, Kennedy, Sophia, and Shania have gifted the country. The mission of B.B.F.C. is to help create advocacy, social justice, and to increase participation of underrepresented populations in ballet. Nico and I are incredibly honored to have worked with this group of powerful young women.

A little Holiday tour through Virginia!

Hope all of you are doing great out there! It’s been so nice having a little time here in Virginia with Family and Friends. Had a nice visit through Richmond, Virginia for a few days with a stop by GreenGate RVA for a little touch up on the “Geo #86” mural located at 12171 W Broad St. Henrico, VA 23233.

Honored to have various murals throughout the wonderful town of Visit Farmville, VA and across the campus of my alma mater Longwood University. New color hits ”Farm Vegas” soon…

No more appendix…. MOM saves the day!

These minutes, surrounded by the songs of Nature have never been quite so clear. Cherish every moment, enjoy all that is offered, appreciate everyone and do your best to slow down just a tad… Listen to those around you and cancel that flight or those plans if you must, make that call, no hesitation. Be safe out there. Everyday.

Thank you so much for stepping in and being my very gentle yet strong MOM Dianne Montgomery… Listening to you and not stepping on that plane saved my life! I love you so much!

Statement: Monty Montgomery’s artistic vision can best be described as an emotional language created using his innate intuition about color and object relationships to connect with the viewer. This authentic viewpoint often humbly defies the norm giving his work both power and vulnerability.
Profoundly affected by his upbringing in the rural Blueridge Mountains of Virginia, Monty’s work has always been informed by his visceral and emotional reactions to daily experiences whether in exploration of nature or trekking city streets. The epiphany came in his teen years when he began expressing this unique perception of the external world by blending conflicting elements into seamless harmony.
Exposure to divergent settings and combining urban sensory input with his impressions of the natural landscape has inspired a collision into one expression where he attempts through color, and geometric abstraction to share his artistic journey.
Montgomery earned his BFA from Longwood University in 1998 and eventually launched Monty Montgomery Art. montymontgomeryart.com He then combined forces with J FEATHER to form KREASHUN in 2012 and recently with Tony Philippou to form Kaleidoskull in 2016. www.kaleidoskullart.com

Step by Step…

The JOURNEY continues… So thankful for every single step and all the amazing folks I am blessed to meet along the way. 🙏

Heading to Farmville, Virginia to add a little color to the local library!

Finishing up in the San Diego studio today with this Prismacolor sketch for the upcoming 25′ x 16′ “Moment #44” Nature series mural in the Farmville, Virginia public library. A geometric cave for the children to climb through, that cozy little mountain side beach on a tranquil lake with majestic purple mountains in the distance. Crisp #loveva skies with linear clouds and that nice warm sunshine hitting your skin.

A sad day in the San Diego studio. :(

Please help support a mural with the students at Zamorano Fine Arts Academy in San Diego, California!

Here’s a few words from Don Masse who is a teacher at Zomarano Fine Arts Academy and has put together a little “Go Fund Me” campaign to help raise funds to purchase paint and supplies for our upcoming collaborative mural with the students that will be permanently painted on a wall at the school in the first week of April. Thanks so much for your support!

Don Masse: “At Zamorano Fine Arts Academy, my curriculum focuses on living artists and one of the amazing things about doing so, is that we can interact with these artists digitally, and in some cases, in person. That has been the case with Monty Montgomery, who was kind enough to do an artist talk with 5th graders earlier in the year and who will be coming back to our school to create a mural with 1st and 5th grade students who created drawings inspired by his work!”

Project Link: http://www.shinebritezamorano.com/2017/09/multiple-murals-and-many-lines.html

Go Fund Me Link: https://www.gofundme.com/a-mural-with-monty

Don Masse: “The funds I am raising will go towards purchasing the paint needed for the 9’ x 25’ mural he will paint with students. Monty is generously donating a week of his time and creativity, and we need the paint purchases to make this wonderful project happen.

This mural project experience will benefit our whole school community. It will be a once in a lifetime opportunity for students that collaborate with Monty. The rest of our classes will tour the mural while It is being created to ask questions and observe a professional artist applying the very skills and concepts that they are learning about in art class. It will add beauty and color to our campus that parents and community members can experience anytime they visit our campus. The mural will be inspired by the Southern California desert landscape and it’s theme and Monty’s geometric abstract style will resonate so well with our school community.

This project will be done the first week of April, so we need to secure supplies by the March 25th.

Your support will mean so much to me and our students. I love being able to bring real world artistic opportunities to our students and your assistance will bring this project to life. You will help bring color and joy to the daily lives of our students!”

Chris drew and painted the water colored image of “G” and then I brought in all of the color and line work “LIVE” at Blackbird Ordinary during Art Basel 2017 while “G” Love and Special Sauce was getting down on stage.

The “Fractal #60” solid birch commissioned door is now installed in Charlottesville, Virginia.

The new “Fractal Series” door is now installed in the home of Pete and Beth Akey in Charlottesville, Virginia. “Fractal #60” is solid birch and was the first door that I have ever taken on. I wanted to allow the tones and patterns of the beautiful wood to come through while creating an interesting motion and energy that bounced around inside the shape. Specific color choices were dialed in with the client to insure a vibe to fit the interior of their abode. Here is a photo taken by Pete of “Fractal #60” installed with “Fractal #46” featured from their collection as well.

Work of Art statement: The “Fractal Series” is a series of works that are based on line, shape, energy, and color relationships. For commissions or more information please contact me through the “Contact” page on montymontgomeryart.com #montyart
