Urban Spree Galerie presents “Sneaky Bit In“, a solo show by the Australian visual & street artist Anthony Lister.

Invited by Urban Spree as part of our Artist-in-Residence program, Lister spent 3 weeks in Berlin between August and September 2018 to create a whole new body of large scale paintings, sculptures, media art, and a large mural.

For this residency project, Lister incorporated a large palette of references stemming from cubism, Picasso, Alejandro Jodorowski’s “The Holy Mountain“, African masks, religion, divination and tarot, Aboriginal trans women, and references to Damien Hirst.

Lister also painted a large mural at Urban Spree, referencing some of the paintings in the show and hybridized by the tremors of Egon Schiele.

Anthony Lister (b. 1979 in Brisbane) is a contemporary Australian -born painter and installation artist, best known for his merging of “high” and “low” cultural imagery. Particularly well known as a street artist, Lister is considered amongst the best in the field with graffiti art legend Banksy even commenting that Lister appears to piss great art in his sleep.

He studied at the Griffith Queensland College of Art and was further educated under mentor Max Gimblett in New York City. Lister helped pioneer the street art movement in his home city as a teenager and is considered Australia’s premier street artist.

Lister employs multiple media including charcoal, latex, spray paint, oil pastels to create his scrawling, figurative style.

Lister has exhibited nationally and internationally including at the Lazarides Gallery in London, Underdogs Gallery in Lisbon, New Image Art Gallery in Los Angeles, Robert Fontaine Gallery in Miami, Jonathan Levine Gallery in New York, Olsen Gallery in Sydney, Black Art Projects in Melbourne, Fireworks Gallery in Brisbane, and Allouche Gallery in New York City.

Lister currently lives and works between Sydney and New York City.
