| "Lowbrow" it may be called, but high-profile best describes the cultural impact of this contemporary art movement. Found everywhere from wine labels and high-end bar accessories to major motion pictures ("Teacher''s Pet," the upcoming "Pink Panther"), the visibility of this dynamic work has rapidly increased in the last few years to worldwide recognition and acclaim. "Weirdo Deluxe" is the first significant manifesto of the genrea riotous blend of pop culture, street culture, pop art, and surrealismand includes profiles of and interviews with 23 leading artists and hundreds of outrageous examples of their work. Special features include an expansive timeline, and peeks at the artists'' collections and influences. "Weirdo Deluxe" is at once a primer and lowbrow art sourcebook as well as a visual homage to pop culture. |
