Contemporary Surrealism with Jordan Bara...

Superfine Art Fair
About this episode

In this episode of the Artist Business Plan we sit down with Jordan Baraniecki to talk about being an "artistic middleman". Learn about approaching grants and the contemporary surrealist movement when you tune into this lovely episode.

Guest: Jordan is a 3D collage painter from Canada. He obtained his Masters from Emily Carr University in 2022 with an emphasis on the resurgence of post-pandemic Surrealism. Throughout his travels, he has nurtured a profound appreciation for introspection, philosophy, and psychology, which now serve as the undercurrents of his practice. His work invites the viewer to question their thoughts; the mind retains thousands a day and only the ones that become conscious, also become part of the subject matter. 

Jordan has garnered national and international recognition. Notably, he exhibited at the Academy of Fine Art in Krakow, Poland in 2022. He has collaborated with companies such as Herschel Clothing and The Vancouver Opera. He has partnered with 0x Society Gallery in Montreal to develop NFTs. Additionally, Jordan dedicated a year to an artist residency in his hometown to explore psychological differences of chaos and solace.
