We designed this poster for the tour, depicting the musicians as a band of merry warriors setting out on a quest across the wilds of North America.  If you can't make it to one of the shows, you can still purchase the poster in our webshop!

Uprisings Limited Edition Resin Sculpture/ Bookend NOW available!

wave1

 

Munky King asked if we would be interested in doing our bunny wave image in 3 dimensions as a bookend, and we instantly jumped at the chance. We had always wanted to do this, but never really stopped to seriously consider how it would be done. Munky King brought in the amazing sculptor Julie B and she went to work on it. It was not easy, but she made something truly beautiful based on the image. The finished sculpture is being produced next year in vinyl, but next week Munky King is releasing a very limited edition hand painted resin version of the piece.

Hand painted resin.
Limited edition of 10.
Stands 9.5" tall.
$450

The piece is available now. Use it as a bookend or display it alone on your mantle.

The Unknown Portraits book signing at GR 2 in Los Angeles on Nov. 28

 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - Kozyndan signing at GR2

The Unknown Portraits

GR2
2062 Sawtelle Blvd.
Los Angeles, CA 90025
gr2.net
(310) 445-9276

Please come down if you are in the area - kozy will be drawing portraits into each book she signs!

The Unknown Portraits originated from a found photo album unearthed in a Venice Beach thrift shop. It inspired the husband-and-wife team to create imagined personae documenting the essence of the lost photographs. The clothbound hardcover is comprised solely of small, detailed graphite portraits--each piece capturing the surreal humor and irreverence that has become a trademark of kozyndan's distinctive style of artwork.

Illuminating select portraits are short stories inspired and imagined by a community of artist friends and writers including Pasha Malla, Mark "frosty" McNeill, Ryan Sands, Mariko Tamaki, Maggie MacDonald, Nick Flanagan, and Porous Walker.

The signing will take place on Saturday, November 28 from 6:30 - 8:30 p.m. For more information about the event, the artists, or Giant Robot, please contact:
