Bio
from Ben's site:
Ben Frost is a painter, who currently lives and works in
Sydney, Australia.
His work explores themes of alienation, dispossession, and
perversity that exists behind the facade of contemporary
western society. By subverting mainstream iconography from
the advertising, entertainment and political spectrum he
creates a visual and conceptual framework that is bold, confronting
and often contraversial.
His work has been exhibited in the Sydney
MCA, Brisbane IMA, galleries throughout Australia as
well as San Francisco, Tokyo, Canada and Europe. His
work is in the collections of Kerry Stokes, Art Bank,
and numerous local and international locations.
Commissioned artwork include clients such
as Mambo, Black + White Magazine, Shock Records, Half A
Cow Records, Livid Music Festival, Blue Magazine, Virgin/EMI,
Men's Style Magazine, Qld Poetry Festival, WhyBin, & the
Melbourne and Sydney Fashion Festivals. |
