Pop Art Show John Stango Images.

After being asked to participate in this show I was contacted by John Stango and his wife, Mimi. They had an interest in my work which was reciprocated upon seeing Johns' art. Stangos work combines texture, color, and a familiar era subject matter all wrapped up in pop sensibility.

John hits all of the iconic subjects in his personal style and it really hits home. His work is featured in some of the most prominent collections and his latest project for Absolut Vodka was a homerun!

A blurb about his work which is featured in the Pop Show.

John Stango is an Urban Pop Impressionist painter from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania with a large cult following throughout the world.  According to one critic, "John Stango made retro cool long before it was retro chic!"

You can see more of his work here and here.
