A Million Posts And Counting: Painting In A Haunted Spice Factory ...

Wednesday, April 11, 2012 Artist Hernan Bas Talks About His Supernatural Work Hernan Bas isn't sure if he's 33 or 34 years old. The painter has been too busy working to keep track of his birthday. Bas, who's made painting his livelihood for 10 years (a figure he does know), recently moved to Detroit from Miami to pursue what he calls a more "hermetic" life, concentrating almost exclusively on his work. But despite his best intentions for a private life, Bas already has three solo shows this year. A show at the Lehmann Maupin Gallery in New York opened last month, and he has shows lined up in South Korea and Paris.
