Eddie Spaghetti Exhibit
Locally known artist, Eddie Maier “Eddie Spaghetti”, is now exhibiting his work in one of the many galleries at Nico Spalon. Eddie’s works are one of a kind as he utilizes oil painted woodblock printmaking. Learning his technique while in Australia, he carves slabs of wood, inks the surface, and then uses the inked block to print onto handmade paper. Nature is his biggest inspiration for his works, pulling from European, American, and West African regions. Eddie says that by creating such natural works, he feels he can get closer to the spirit that moves through all things.
Here is what people are saying about Eddie’s Art:
“Saw your artwork in Pittsburgh this past weekend and was really astounded by it. Seeing your art made me feel great for the rest of that day. and the positive energy emanating from your it has been with me since. I can only hope that more people have an opportunity to discover your art and experience it in the same wonderful way I did. “

Nico Spalon RetroHair Photoshoot!
The last weekend in July, Nico was proud to host a photo shoot for RetroHair, based out of Pittsburgh, PA. On Saturday there was an open modeling call, with chosen models being shot on Sunday and Monday. There was so much going on, but it was all very exciting! We had very beautiful models, great designers, and a great photographer. These pictures will be featured in national print campaigns, as well as trade shows, and outdoor boards. It was an honor to work with such prestigious figures as Gino Martino, Bob Campione, and Bill Gunzburg. The hair that was done for the shoot was just as stunning as the models, and our team drew inspiration from this, as well as picking up new techniques. Thank you to the Retro team, as well as all the models that came out and participated in the model call, and the shooting. Keep an eye out because Nico will be looking for local models again soon!
