Erik Parker Colorful Resistance

the long version

"While internationally acclaimed artist Erik Parker has deep roots in alternative comics, illustration, and graffiti, his body of work successfully bridges that underground culture and the Pop Surrealism movement. The first retrospective look at the artist's irreverent and boisterous artwork, Erik Parker: Colorful Resistance includes a look at four recurring themes (social and political mappings, pictographs, ebullient heads, and animated still lifes), all of which present busy, intense compositions originated from word clusters, viscera-like forms, and animated figurines that represent the critical mass of social movements."--Cover sleeve.
