PAINT ME POP= LONDON calling NYC


I am a huge admirer of pop artist culture and my all time favorite is Michael Salter’s his work can be found all over the world but if you want to see his work it is featured on http://www.notcouture.com/

Simply click on gallery and you can view work on his own thumbnail.
My other favorite artist of all times is Andy Warhol; he has inspired me through my life in my art as an artist designer and photographer. He is always in the back of my mind whatever medium I am being creative in. Recently my partner Scott came home one night last month to inform me that they found an original Keith Herring mural UN touched on a façade of a building in the east village of Manhattan. This is unheard of since its been decades since his passing and the unlikely hood of a mural unseen and for that matter preserved over the time in great condition is highly unlikely to have occurred. Therefore, as this treasure is preserved and noted...I like to take this time to appreciate the former and present stars of pop art culture. We at Kifka+Heller are planning to homage such artist in the future by creating our own unique version of pop art interpretation and integrate it in our fashion apparel and home collection… so I keep you all posted . PEACE and POP $^%(&%^)(&_*
