Produktbeschreibung
Hardy Marks Publications is proud to announce the third volume in its Drawings for Tattoos series, featuring more of the work of San Francisco's Don Ed Hardy. The focus of this volume is drawings done between 1955 and 1957, when Hardy (at age 10-12) was applying "tattoos" with eyeliner and colored pencils on neighborhood kids. He and his partner in the "toy tattoo shop" were featured in a photo article in his local paper, which is included in this book along with pictures his work. Hardy produced hundreds of flash design sheets during this period, before going onto art in other mediums for ten years. He returned to actual tattooing in 1967 after graduating art school, and went on to develop the cultural and artistic potential of the medium, leading the world to its current popularity. This volume of his Kiddy Flash shows the precocious roots of his life-long passion.
Autorenporträt
A Southern California native born in 1945, Hardy completed a B.F.A. degree in printmaking at the San Francisco Art Institute. In 2000 he received an honorary doctorate from SFAI. His focus now is on painting, printmaking, and works in other media that have been exhibited in galleries and museums internationally. In addition to curating several shows, he has written and published more than thirty books on alternative art under the Hardy Marks imprint. Hardy's various works form the basis of the global fashion line Ed Hardy, that became an international phenomenon. His life and works are documented in a variety of books and films. In addition to showing his own works, Hardy has curated a number of exhibitions for both galleries and nonprofit spaces and frequently lectures at museums and universities. His work has appeared in numerous periodicals, books, and films internationally. In 2000, he was appointed by Oakland mayor Jerry Brown to that city's Cultural Arts Commission, and awarded an Honorary Doctorate by the San Francisco Art Institute. Hardy divides his time between his studios in Honolulu and in San Francisco.
