Peta Louthias

There are many words that describe artist Tim Yankeโ€”bold, passionate, spontaneous, innovativeโ€”and all of those qualities can be found in Yankeโ€™s new Fall Collection from Park West Gallery.

You can view the full collection here, which presents over 40 works from an ambitious variety of mediums, ranging from traditional paintings to sculptures to even more advanced art forms.

The centerpiece of Yankeโ€™s Fall collection is โ€œPeta Louthias,โ€ the first augmented reality-enhanced artwork from Park Westโ€™s new Moving Canvas platform.

The magic of Moving Canvas begins when collectors download an exclusive app for their smartphones or tablets. While viewing โ€œPeta Louthiasโ€ through the app, Yankeโ€™s butterflies come to lifeโ€”moving, changing, and flying off the canvas.

โ€œPeta Louthiasโ€ is one of Park Westโ€™s most unique offerings in recent memory. While the virtual aspects of โ€œPeta Louthiasโ€ are amazing, the artwork is stunning to look at even without its digital enhancements.

โ€œPeta Louthiasโ€ is a 3-dimensional work brought to life using the medium of the SCULPTOGRAPH, a new technique that combines traditional painting and sculpture in a fresh new way. SCULPTOGRAPH is exclusively available through Park West Gallery.

โ€œHistorically speaking, collecting the first example of a new medium is a huge opportunity for collectors,โ€ says Park West Gallery Director David Gorman. โ€œThis new work challenges past questions of what art can be, using augmented reality to change the way art can be experienced. โ€˜Peta Louthiasโ€™ is the first of its kind and will always be important for that reason.โ€

There are multiple SCULPTOGRAPH works available from Yanke in this new collection, in addition to other spectacular mediums. Case in pointโ€”collectors will be thrilled by Yankeโ€™s new line of acrylic sculptures. These bring to life some of the artistโ€™s most popular images, driven by his creative fascination with the American West and the spontaneity of abstract art.

The pillar-sculpture โ€œTimberโ€ is wrapped in his abstract designs, which Yanke refers to as his โ€œDNAโ€ or the building blocks of his artistic style. Continuing his focus on Americana, the sculpture โ€œA Vision Womanโ€ is steeped in Yankeโ€™s trademark Neo-West style, a form of Abstract Expressionism using boldly saturated hues. Yanke frequently incorporates Native American imagery and symbolism into his art in addition to dragonflies and other spiritual icons.

This collection also features sculptures and other works featuring Yankeโ€™s trademark American flag designs, lightheartedly dubbed โ€œYanke Doodles.โ€ These flags represent Yankeโ€™s artistic interpretation of his own patriotism and the melting pot of cultures that makes up the United States of America.

In addition to these new mediums, this Fall Sale collection is proud to present a fantastic selection of Yankeโ€™s acrylic and mixed-media paintings. Yanke is a master of iconography, and his paintings re-energize traditional cultural totems with a new sense of urgency and spontaneity.

Park Westโ€™s Fall Sale is also offering a select number of Yankeโ€™s abstract paintings, which were recently the subject of a major museum exhibition, โ€œAbstract Musings,โ€ at Nashvilleโ€™s prestigious Monthaven Arts and Cultural Center.

Tim Yanke has never been afraid to explore new mediums or accept new artistic challenges. This Fall Sale collection is a limited-time opportunity to collect a new work from one of the most exciting artists working today.
