Artist William Quigley, owner of Skrapper announces its fashion show (line launch) and after party!

Location: REDBULL Event Space, 40 Thomson St (at Watts) New York, NY 11101

‘Do you know William Quigley? Many have sat as subjects for Quigley’s much sought after portraiture such as Michael Jordon, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Eminem, Bruce Springsteen, Ice Cube and Shaq, all giving their check of approval to Quigley’s quirky, unpredictable and innovative approach. The appeal of his work is considerable; partly because of his mastery of the brush and his medium. The other part is his impressive frame of artistic reference, and his ability to capture a subject’s intensity, laying their essence naked before us at emotional, physical and intellectual breaking points.’ – Zink Magazine 

When asked about charities and giving back to society, William stated, ‘The Skrapper Philosophy is US Nationalism – integrity, respect and passion for a place that is too often taken for granted. To make everyone who is working hard towards something feel special and important!’ 

William Quigley began his artistic career in 1983 with the first showing at the McNeil Gallery in Philadelphia alongside Andy Warhol in 1985; it was a sellout show! Quigley’s art follows the footsteps of the Renaissance painters, ‘preserving the new world empire of entertainment and big business, with honest and accessible portraits of the movers and shakers of our time; ignoring the art-smart elitism, he brings us accessible icons in an egalitarian light and we are energized. You can experience his work at: QuigleyArt.com.’ Zink Magazine!

(Designer & Inventor)

‘Quigley paintings are raw, uncompromising, and sophisticated. Although the galleries are of high interest, most of the success surrounding his work came from ambitious, unconventional avenues that have led to selling hundreds of paintings. Not having the pressure of a market or specific style has allowed him to develop a body of diverse eclectic work that is as much about the process as it is the result’. – NY Arts Magazine 

K+R will be covering the event!
