Guyton/Walker

I love these homage-to-Pop installations by Guyton/Walker. See more images at Greene Naftali.

To me, it's clever and fun. Here are some Warhol and Lichtenstein images, so you can see how immediate the influence is.

Roy Lichtenstein:

Andy Warhol:

(Of course, these brief images don't exactly exemplify the breadth or highlight of either artists' career. But they show the subject matter, style and technique that have informed Guyton/Walker's work.)

Guyton/Walker is a collaborative effort by Wade Guyton (who did the inkjet paintings I highlighted here) and Kelley Walker, whose work can be seen on Saatchi online.
