FOLLOW THE NEON LIGHT…
Expect the unexpected at Studio Olivia Steele in the artist hub of Alte Münze for an open studio visit and book launch in celebration of Berlin Gallery Weekend 2019. Visitors are invited to draw back the velvet curtain of contemporary artist Olivia Steele’s carefully curated world to view her private artwork collection of stunning neons, treasures and found objects from around the globe. The highly sought after wearable art and limited edition prints made with love and intention by the artist herself will be available for purchase during the event. This is a chance to see the working studio of an international artist and learn more about neon as a medium, while also gathering insights into Steele’s practice.
Coinciding with the open studio event will be the launch of her new book Conceptual Confessions V3. The hardcover art book contains over 160 satin pages celebrating 10 years of carefully curated artworks and installations that shed light on the world and philosophy of the artist. The beauty of this book is that it is a work of art in itself, featuring a stunning embossed linen cover complete with a hypnotic lenticular print of her signature Third Eye Activation Portal. Limited to 500 editions, Conceptual Confessions is an affordable way to own your own Steele! Come full of curiosity to share in Olivia Steele’s magic.

ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Contemporary light artist Olivia Steele harnesses the power of neon gas to assert symbolic phrasing that allures and provokes. Steele has earned an international reputation for her spirited public neon happenings in surreal environments. Pioneering a new breed of conscious art, her expansive career has seen her impart fragments of handwritten wisdom and wit all over the globe, from Berlin to Beirut, Miami to Mumbai. For the past eight years, Steele has maintained her artist’s studio located in the heart of Mitte–Berlin, hidden away on the top floor of a former coin mint. She speaks passionately about her studio that has been an integral aspect of her creation story and her rise to be one of the most compelling contemporary artists working in her field today “Art is life and life is art, the line between work and play is blurry, my Berlin studio is where I started my career and has fostered my growth as an artist and catalyst.”
