Beau Stanton   Famous Artists

Working in a variety of mediums, Stanton's work takes the form of large scale murals, mosaics, stained glass, and multimedia animations.  Heavily informed by historic ornamentation, mythology, and the classics, his work seeks to draw parallels between past narratives and contemporary human issues such as climate change, environmental conservation, and post industrialization.  The imagery and themes are always site specific and closely tailored to the locale of the artwork, involving research and scouting of the surrounding area with a goal of creating work that is a direct response to its environment.

Creating large-scale public artwork for the past 10 years, Stanton has completed murals and art installations across the globe in cities including New York, Dubai, London, Rome, Los Angeles, Tokyo, Detroit, Berlin, Miami, Amman, and Nashville.  Notable project partners include Times Square Arts, National Coalition Against Censorship, The Explorers Club, The US Embassy to Italy, Wynwood Walls, Kiehls, Converse, and The Atlantic Magazine.
