About this Venue

Clutter Gallery is a leading contemporary art gallery specializing in the vibrant world of designer toys and lowbrow art. Located in the artistic community of Beacon, New York (home to the world famous Dia museum), Clutter Gallery has established itself as a premier destination for collectors and enthusiasts alike. Since its inception in 2011, the gallery has been dedicated to showcasing the work of both established and emerging artists who push the boundaries of pop culture, street and low-brow art. In addition to its dynamic exhibitions, Clutter Gallery also houses an impressive permanent collection of Designer Toys, curated by the team behind its renowned print publication. This collection serves as a testament to the gallery’s deep-rooted connection to the designer toy movement and its commitment to preserving and celebrating this unique art form. Self-produced art toys are designer collectibles created and manufactured independently by the artist or small teams without the backing of a large toy company or mass-market brand. These toys are often highly personal, artistic expressions and are usually made in limited runs. Key Characteristics include independent creation where the artist is in control of the entire process from concept, sculpting, and painting to production and packaging. These are usually made in small batches, often 10–100 pieces, which adds to their rarity, made using materials like resin, sofubi (Japanese soft vinyl), or 3D-printed components. Clutter Gallery presents Gift Wrapped 2017, our annual cash-and-carry, holiday times extravaganza! Brent Nolasco is renowned for his imaginative and emotionally resonant designer toys, sculptures, and paintings. His work seamlessly blends elements of the surreal, grotesque, and whimsical, often exploring themes of transformation, mortality, and personal mythology. Nolasco’s art is characterized by a fusion of “cute characters with nightmarish backdrops,” creating pieces that are both endearing and unsettling. He employs a diverse palette and mixed media techniques to craft unique textures and forms, reflecting his belief in constant evolution and the interplay between life and art
