Hans collaborated with Rowland Scherman on this piece using a large black and white print of Jim Morrison and decoupaged reproductions of Jim's drawings and poetry in his own handwriting, photos of Jim as a child, and painted over the image creating what is truly a collaboration of the three artists. It is signed by both Hans and Rowland, with Jim's signature decoupaged in from a reproduction of his Will.

Hans collaborated with Roger Hoit on a painting / photography piece as part of the "Eyes of Africa" photo exhibition and AMREF fundraiser that was on display in May. The eyes of five animals for his photographs are decoupaged into this portrait of a Messai boy on the day of his circumcision ritual. Hans wanted to paint a visceral portrait of Africa, conveying the dichotomy of its beauty as well as the continent's ongoing hardships.

Hans welcomes Russell Simmons to the gallery for a private fundraiser for The Diamond Empowerment Fund, building schools in Africa. Hoit's "Eyes of Africa" photography show was the backdrop for this fantastic evening.
The Gallery also hosted an event with Roger Hoit that raised over $32,000 for AMREF, raising money for medical research in Africa.
Hans grew up on Cape Cod and below are colorful, stylized portraits of some of his favorite Cape landmarks, from Chatham to Provincetown. There is an emphasis in these images on architecture and light, much like Edward Hopper, who did much of his work on the Cape. His style and technique give these unique paintings a youthful energy, using heavy amounts of paint at times to build a texture and occasionally decoupaging hidden elements into the work. The show was very well received and only four original pieces from that series are currently available, but Hans has limited edition Giclee prints available of many of the works.
