About this item

An exclusive opportunity to own a unique original artwork by Gig Depio. This is one of three defaced currency notes presented for the first time. We expect them to generate significant interest.

Las Vegas-based Filipino painter Gig Depio presents the conjunctions of contemporary and historical forces in the form of intense, often large-scale, figurative compositions. Depio’s body of work focuses on American culture and its history, the exploration of the unfamiliar west and later expansion and influence across the globe, especially on the convergence of American, Philippine, and Spanish histories at the turn of the 20th century and in contemporary society.

Recipient of the 2016 Nevada Arts Council Fellowship Grant in Painting, he has exhibited across Nevada, with shows at the Nevada Museum of Art, the University of Nevada Las Vegas, the University of Nevada in Reno, and the Clark County Winchester Cultural Center Gallery, Las Vegas, among others. Depio has been an exponent for public, non-profit and independent art in Nevada since 2009, and has recently extended his advocacy internationally, including exhibitions with the National Commission for Culture and Arts (NCCA), Manila, Philippines in 2018, and in 2019 at the 58th Venice Biennale, Giudecca Art District (GAD), Venice, Italy, and at Three Works Gallery in Scarborough, Yorkshire, United Kingdom.

Gig will be featured in the July 2021 edition of Turps magazine, the publication owned by YBA Marcus Harvey.
