Alan Ganev: "Tagger"

To commemorate the November 9th game against the Los Angeles Kings, classically trained artist Alan Ganev drew inspiration from both teams by juxtaposing urban culture and traditional fine art. "Tagger" expresses the playfulness of their rivalry through the reactive fusion of opposite forces, the porcelain figurine of a king dueling with energetic lines of urban expression. The exciting merging of art forms, classical heritage with present practices, unites the delicate and the raw, giving birth to a new kind of poetry.
