The print is a catalogue cover image that I created for Antonio's bicycle manufacturing company, Cinelli (also based out of Milan).  Entitled "Modern New Bicycle", the signed and numbered giclee print is limited to an edition of 50, with an image size of 11 x 14".  

Please contact the gallery at info@colomboarte.com  for inquiries.

The show, inspired by the mysteries of childhood discovery, will consist of small paintings all framed in vintage frames, and one LARGE complex piece that will anchor the show.  The small scale of the pieces is in keeping with childhood objects: trading cards, comic books, toys, etc.

The show is tentatively called "OURS", and a preview of the title piece appears below.

For inquiries about the show and the work, please contact Antonio Colombo at info@colomboarte.com.

Stay tuned for further news and images about the show.

Antonio Colombo of the Antonio Colombo Arte Contemporanea (Milan, Italy) asked me to be a part of his booth this year.  In addition to European artists, Mr. Colombo will feature a handful of North American artists, including my two favorite Gary's, Taxali and Baseman.

Two new pieces (designed as one continuous piece), painted specifically for the fair, appear below.

The book is broken down by artist, and contributors range from designers, artists, illustrators, cartoonists, you name it.  Its a wonderful volume of preliminary typography sketches and ideas from contemporary creatives like Ross MacDonald, Louise Fili, and Javier Mariscal to name a few.
