Face Time: Famed Artist Mark Kostabi Bringing Unique Exhibit to Ocean Galleries

Rare. Beguiling. Brilliant.

Three words that describe both the artist, Mark Kostabi, and his collection of art at Ocean Galleries for a limited-engagement exhibit titled “The New Direction” on Saturday, May 27 and Sunday, May 28, with in-person appearances by the artist from 6-9pm both days.

“The pieces are just amazing,” says Ocean Galleries owner Kim Miller. “They are full of color, full of life, full of meaning.”

Known for his faceless figures, Kostabi uses these smooth, bold, surreal protagonists to create universally relatable images that transcend culture, race, and definition.

It’s all there, without so much as a wink, whisker, or grin.
