ABOUT

OLIVER HIBERT

Eye catching, colorful, bold, fantastic, surreal and psychedelic, is how many describe American artist, Oliver Hibert’s style of artwork. Hibert was born in Seattle, Washington in 1983. Self taught and determined, Oliver Hibert made his debut in galleries by the age of sixteen. Hibert’s bright palette and magical scenes caught the attention of MTV for a music video at the age of eighteen. Shortly thereafter, came an impressive art show at the Phoenix Art Museum followed by consecutive biennial shows at the Tucson Museum of Contemporary Art in Arizona. Oliver Hibert has now shown his paintings, designs and illustrations in numerous retail stores, galleries and museums around the globe including – Los Angeles, New York, Hong Kong, London, Paris and Australia. Hibert has worked with such clients as Disney, MTV, Nike, Adidas, Wayne Coyne / The Flaming Lips, Diesel, Fender Musical Corp, BBC, GQ Magazine, Time Out Magazine, Proctor&Gamble, Salomon Snowboards and Yellow Book.

In 2008, Hibert’s work for DesignersBlock at London’s Design Week was short-listed and exhibited in the “Designs of the Year Show” at the London Design Museum.

Currently, Oliver Hibert resides in Scottsdale, Arizona on his desert farm of cacti and albino peacocks.

Oliver Hibert is represented internationally by DEBUT ART
