Trouble & Drew’s “Comics & Nonsense”

Exhibit opens Aug 30th 6-10pm 

Please RSVP at rsvp@hvw8.com

Dj sets by @hateboy2 x @willshott

Exhibit runs Sat. Aug 31st – Sun. Sept 1st, 1- 6pm.

This exhibition celebrates the longstanding collaborative friendship and partnership of  Trevor “Trouble” Andrew and Andrew “Drew Toonz” Miller.

Trevor and renowned comic artist, Drew Toons, came together creatively over their shared love of blending high and low fashion culture and art into uncategorizable new works that both comment on the world around them and make you laugh or cringe. Their fun is infectious, but don’t miss their eye for detail, world-building and the pure joy that comes from making art.

Works include the pairs co-authored original, full-length comic book “No Work City,” which chronicles the almost real-life adventures of Emo Cat & Trouble Andrew as they battle corniness in all forms — especially the form of the Corn Lord –, a whimsical and intricately detailed dioramic representation of the world as they see it, and many of Trouble & Drew’s hand-altered/ toys and vintage comics.

Trevor Andrew (b. 1979; Nova Scotia, Canada)
Trevor “Trouble” Andrew, aka Gucci Ghost, is a multi-disciplinary Artist. He is internationally known for his raw street aesthetic and pop art sensibility. Trevor’s recent work explores our relationship with consumer culture, bending the perception of what is “real” and what is luxury.

In 2013, Trevor began tagging the streets of Brooklyn, New York with a personalized vision of the iconic Gucci logo. He transformed everything around him to Gucci by repurposing discarded objects and clothing, extracting the power of the brand identity. This work quickly garnered a substantial online following, and led to an official collection for the iconic Milan based fashion house. As a result of Trevor’s collaborative work, the collection has become a major global success story that has helped bolster the brand.
