Endzone Dancer by Steve Powers
This is an epic piece.
“Endzone Dancer is a 2004 work from Stephen Powers that was both his contribution to the Beautiful Losers traveling exhibition, and the penultimate chapter of his collection of graphic short stories, First And Fifteenth. The work is comprised of twelve 61cm square panels pained in enamel on aluminum, that together form the suicide note of a desperate caped crusader named Superfeen. While the work is darker than anything in Powers’ canon, the color and line are so life affirming that one can’t feel anything but bliss that superfeen is drowning before our eyes. The wisp of smoke that rises in the last panel is not a wayward soul heading skyward, but the smoke from a new fire born in the heart of our hero. He will rise again from his grave, a bench on the lower deck, and renew the battle with evil at happy hour.”
–David Mogen-David, Fortified Wine Spectator

Go Buy Now: El Tono’s Cuadrimetria Chicha Print
Edition of 25
28″ x 40″
50 euros
“These prints are very unique for many reasons. The “Chicha” posters are traditionally used to announce Cumbia concerts that occur on a weekly basis. They must be designed and printed quickly to be distributed all over the city as rapidly as possible. A thin low-quality paper is used to facilitate the ease in which the posters are put up. Because of this technique there is a notable difference between a silkscreen print produced in the “Chicha” workshop and other prints produced in a conventional silkscreen workshop used by artists. These prints, like all silkscreens, are one of a kind, but the “defects” in the Chicha posters are exceptionally captivating. There are discrepancies in color, letter form and registry. This technique used on high quality paper make these imperfections even more interesting.”

Go Buy Now: Tauba Auerbach’s Untitled (Fold)
We love us some Tauba Auerbach, so this is a no-brainer
Tauba Auerbach’s two-tone screenprint is a visual cacophony of purple and yellow gridded dots that, when seen at a distance of 9 or 10 feet, resolve into an ingenious optical illusion suggesting a piece of paper that has been folded into sixteen segments.
(Income from this edition will be used towards Tauba’s new book, an ingenious pop-up extravaganza that breaks new ground in pop-up technology.)
(Thanks Liam!)
Go buy now: Winston Smith’s Idol
Winston Smith, the man behind the curtain of so many artists. Winston Smith’s iconic work influenced and shaped so many of today’s artists, whether you or they knew it. More importantly, his work helped define the message of the Dead Kennedys, one of my favorite bands of all time.
So, if you’re familiar or not, take my advice and pick up this small numbered edition print. It’s worth it. Available at Paper Works Lab.
