Brian Branch
Brian Branch is a contemporary surrealist artist living in Brooklyn. In high school he began creating graffiti art on denim during the birth of the hip-hop/rap era in the ‘80s. Years later, his interest in Fine Art evolved towards oil painting, which eventually helped forge his artistic journey. Within three decades of a life lived in the vanguard of visual expression, his work has been sought after and collected by well-known celebrity figures including the estate of Dr. Maya Angelou, and in the collections of actors CCH Pounder, YaYa DeCosta, and singers Chaka Khan and Valerie Simpson. Branch’s work has been widely recognized and exhibited throughout the NYC Metropolitan area, including Port Authority Six Summit Gallery, Fashion Week, and The Art Walk Juneteenth Cultural Event in Fort Greene.
