Over the weekend, Augustine Kofie’s showing opened in Paris at Galerie OpenSpace, his first true solo outside of the States. California Soul brought his post-graffiti aesthetic to his fans in France featuring a layering of sunny colors, linear and grid-like elements that speak to architectural forms, and themes of “a golden state of mind, overcast optimism, southlandishness and the complexities of the good life in the rural paradise that he saw bulldozed into urban submission.” Take a look at the opening photos below…
