We cordially invite you to join us for a special evening celebrating Philippe Shangti’s solo art exhibition at the Andaz West Hollywood on Thursday, September 14, 2023 from 6 PM to 9 PM.
Philippe Shangti is a Contemporary Artist and Photographer who expresses his imagination through his bold and provocative art which has ultimately given birth to his futuristic and out-of-standard concepts.
Through his series of photographic artworks including “Art vs Drugs,” “Luxury Dinner,” “No Pollution Here” and his most recent collection, “SEVEN,” which reconceptualizes the 7 deadly sins, Shangti skillfully manages to denounce serious causes by sublimating important messages.
Shangti has collaborated with celebrities and several well-known brands such as David Guetta, Playboy, Aston Martin, and Ferrari. We’re excited to announce Art Angels Gallery as an official partner.
