PAUL STANLEY
Paul Stanley is the charismatic front man/lead vocalist/rhythm guitarist/songwriter for hard rock super group KISS, best known for his wailing vocals and high-energy on-stage antics.
For 50 years, Paul Stanley has stood beside some of the more idiosyncratic lead guitarists in the classic rock world. But it's Stanley's immense rhythm chops that laid the bedrock for Kiss's sound, and have powered everything they've done since.
In 2023, Paul Stanley created this brand new series of artwork “Joy and Rebellion” - a intoxicating dance of colors that spans the spectrum. Radiant reds, electric blues, sunlit yellows, and lush greens collide in a harmonious cacophony of hues. Each shade competes for your attention, drawing you deeper into the canvas.
Peter Triantos Art Gallery is honored to present his artworks for the first time ever in Canada joined by Paul Stanley in the opening!
