《彩虹之上》(2021)由安迪·沃霍尔博物馆的首席策展人约瑟夫·迪亚兹组织,是该博物馆公共艺术项目的第一个委托项目。
这幅壁画位于博物馆面向玫瑰路的外墙,灵感来自波普艺术、死亡纪念和福禄贝尔礼物,这些彩色积木鼓励孩子们在学习和实验中建立联系。
Typoe说:“这幅壁画为公众提供了一个选择有趣形式的机会,并为个人提供了发现和解释构图的空间。”“有了福禄培尔的礼物,孩子们可以在一个不受限制的玩耍区域内堆叠和排列积木;在《彩虹之上》中,公众可以在无拘无束的观看中发挥想象力。我希望所有参观沃霍尔的人都能受到这些色彩领域的欢迎,并在离开时体验自己的形式之旅。”
来自迈阿密的Typoe是一位多学科艺术家,他的实践在黑暗和光明主题之间不断紧张。他参加了世界各地的画廊和博物馆展览,并在墨西哥城、纽约、洛杉矶、布宜诺斯艾利斯和巴塞尔展出了他的作品。Typoe是PRIMARY的联合创始人和创意总监,PRIMARY是迈阿密的一个艺术集体和画廊。

Over The Rainbow (2021), organized by José Diaz, The Andy Warhol Museum’s chief curator, is the first commission in the museum’s public art program.
The mural, sited on an exterior wall of the museum facing Rose Way, is inspired by Pop Art, memento mori, and Froebel Gifts, colorful blocks that encourage children to make connections in their learning and experimentation.
“This mural is an opportunity to engage the public with a selection of playful forms and allow room for individuals to discover and interpret the composition,” says Typoe. “With Froebel’s gifts, children stack and align blocks within a zone of uninhibited play; with Over The Rainbow, the general public can exercise their imagination through unbridled viewing. I hope that all who visit The Warhol are welcomed by these fields of color and leave having experienced their own journey in form.”
Based in Miami, Typoe is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice plays upon the constant tension between dark and light subject matter. He has participated in gallery and museum shows around the world and exhibited his work in Mexico City, New York City, Los Angeles, Buenos Aires and Basel. Typoe is cofounder and Creative Director of PRIMARY, an art collective and gallery in Miami.
Over The Rainbow is organized by José Diaz, chief curator.
Over The Rainbow has been made possible with the generosity of the Richard King Mellon Foundation.
