Peter Bakacs

Peter Bakacs is a painter based in Ocean Grove, Victoria, who has a love for mid-century design and vintage cars. A Melbourne native, Peter spent his childhood in the outer eastern hills subsisting on a diet of skateboarding, cartoons and 70s cars. With a fastidious hand, Peter reveals a bright, acrylic world of vehicles, old school pastimes, and pop typography. 

Take a look at Peter's solo shows: The Fast Can't Lose (2017), In Transit (2019), Super Heavy (2021), and Overhaul (2022).
