Aesthetic Apparatus



Founded by poster boys Dan Ibarra & Michael Byzewski in 1999 as a side project fromtheir "real jobs", Aestetic Aparatus
as been since very active on the limited edition, screen printed concert posters scene. Not only they make rock posters, they also make really nice screenprints. "Postsynaptic Profile" a big 26x34 five color screenprint is a good example of what they do, since the use of photographic images is frequent in their work. You can see (and buy) all of their nice products, like some one of a kind test prints, on their website.

Kenyon Bajus



Philadelphia suburban dweller and illustrator Keyon Bajus pratcice what he call graphic satire. We can not argue with him on that matter since his work as a strong socio-political dna. This 18x24 screenprint called "World Police", is not his strongest statement, but has the advantage of being featured on page 156 of the march edition of Juxtapoz.
You can find it here alongside other satirical and subversive pieces.

Chris Kerr



When he's not hicking trough a magical forest, or drinking beer with elfs, multidisciplinary artist Chris Kerr make some pretty out of this world prints. His style is hard to define, but all we can say is that we very much like his particular aesthetic. Respectively entitled "Who drank all the blood?", and "Coke Kills Elves" these two screeprints are good examples of wath is going on in Kerr's mind. The first one is a 4 color 9.25x11.25 signed and number edition of 46, while the other one is a 8.5x11 two color singned and numbered edition of 26. Both can be find at Little Paper Planes or at slimlimb ... home of the Chris Kerr realm.

Kill Pixie

Une nouvelle sérigraphie pour Kill Pixie. Exclusivement chez nos amis de la galerie Lab101. Jeune artiste de rue, plus particulièrement les rues de Sydney en Australie, Kill Pixie est un ancien adepte du graphity, travaille maintenant en atelier. Pour ce faire, il a dû migrer vers des mediums plus soft que la traditionnel peinture-aerosole, à savoir ; l'encre, l'aquarelle, l'acrylique. Son travail dans les textures est extrêmement unorthodox et ses personnages semblent toujours sortir d'un univers paranoïaque. Il sera intéressant de voir ce jeune artiste évolué dans les années à venir !
