Shaw TV's 'The Express' Features Unique Art of Anthony Hollenstein

Film shoot with Tim Chung of Shaw Cable TV

​Here's a still from the shoot with Tim Chung on the camera. A 3 minute feature highlighting some of my paintings using my own method; the "Hollenstyle 2" 
​Aside from some glare, a mispronounced name (It's Anthony Hol-len-stein), and a little exaggeration, it was cool to be featured on TV. It doesn't happen every day.

The Under $100 Art Launch

​Participating in the New West Artists launch exhibition, with 3 under $100 works, Anthony had to try something other than what he's used to. Rather than spending hundreds of hours on one piece, he had to create three works in a short time frame. As he was put to the fire he worked at a quick pace to create these 3 oil paintings for the event. 
​
Anthony admits that the limits in time and price range were a challenge, yet having stretched himself to try something new and having sold all three of his works, it was a great experience.

Julie MacLellan from The Record did the New West Art Group proud with a very insightful and comprehensive article on the founding of the NWA, the passion of the artists dedicated to it's success and the Art Launch event. Featured in her article were Andrea Fergusson, Anthony Hollenstein and Shelly Rothenburger.
​

The NWA, an artist-run, non-profit group was designed to celebrate, support, encourage and promote visual artists in the community. Its official launch with the exhibition Feb. 11 to 13 at River Market was a great success. The under-$100 theme was chosen to make the exhibition as inclusive as possible.

Celebrating arts and culture in Queensborough during November was a great chance to show my Fraser River Series and my "Hollenstyle" method of painting. The raking light was fabulous and the people were left in awe! I really enjoyed it too!

Art Inspired by a Royal City

Prior to the showing in the 2010 New Westminster Cultural Crawl a very descriptive write-up in the New West Newsleader newspaper, August 6th edition, was generously written.

Inspired by a Royal City
Local artist Anthony Hollenstein's work as part of the Cultural Crawl August 2010
                By Sean Kolenko 
                    Contributor

Local artist Anthony Hollenstein is always on the hunt for new inspiration and a new scene to paint. When he discovered the beach underneath the Skytrain bridge that looks back on New Westminster, he said he had to commit the scene to canvas.

"As a painter, the past has so many romantic connotations " said Hollenstein, a Royal City resident since 2004. " And the Fraser River and New Westminster have so much of that kind of character. It really makes this one of the best places to paint."

Hollenstein's love of the Fraser River produced a 10-painting series, highlighting different aspects of the river, that will be on display during this year's New Westminster Cultural Crawl.

The series, he said, is a melding of impressionist and post-impressionist styles, which makes for a colourful and layered visual experience.

For instance, in the aforementioned painting, called "Under the SkyTrain Bridge", each piece of the landscape comes forward until the closest element - in this case a log- feels as though it is right in your face.

Hollenstein's 10-painting collection on the Fraser River will be on display at the Fraser River Discovery Centre at 788 Quayside Dr. on Aug. 7, 2010, from noon to 4 p.m.
