1. You've never heard of Todd Schorr?
Do none of you read Juxtapoz?

2. Absolutely LOVE his work!!! Big fan here.
As an avid reader and subscriber of Juxtapoz, I would have to rank his work as well as Joe Coleman and Robert Williams (the godfather) as the elite of this movement, IMHO.
Have you got his latest book "Dreamland"? One of my favorite art books in years. I love the fact that he uses techniques of the Baroque and earlier periods on such post-pop themes and subjects. My only gripe with these guys is that they seem so confined to southern cal or new york. That's why nobody here has heard of their talents. I live in Atlanta, a town with many cutting edge galleries that would do anything to show some of their work, but we never get it. If they are sincere about being anti-art-establishment, then why do they insist on marketing only to "old-world" art scenes? Thats just my little soapbox. Anyway, glad there is another connisuer here.
