Description
Marco Pop Art Mouse Pad 2000s
This is a very cool original piece by Marco a famous pop artist from New York.
MARCO is a world famous legendary NYC born and bred POP Artist who has been compared to the Keith Haring/Andy Warhol of his generation.
Marco actually had the distinct pleasure of collaborating with LA2 or Little Angel to his friends who had actually collaborated with Keith Haring when LA was a teenager in the then wild n crazy Lower East Side…Keith, according to LA2, had a tiny studio on Broome Street between Eldridge and Bowery in the early 80’s and had bumped into LA2 in the playground where LA2 pop-art-print-illustration-graffiti-prints-keith-harring-murals-painting-arrow-photo
was hanging out with his friends. Keith took LA2 under his wing when he realized that this little kid was the one who was tagging “LA2” all over the hood. The pair even collaborated on pieces that ended up in Keith’s first major show in NYC at Tony Shafrazi Gallery in SOHO…
Marcoart is happy to see that LA2, through his diligent effort has successfully been able to set the record straight so that now the world is slowing beginning to realize what the Art World has always known:
LA2 was in integral catalyzing element in the creation of Keith Haring’s style, and most importantly is finally getting his just due and assuming his rightful place in the pantheon of Pop Art Pioneers …
One gallery that currently carries his works aptly describes LA2’s relationship to and influence on the evolution of Keith Haring’s style as follows:
“Angel Ortiz (now known as LA Roc or LA II) was 16 years old when he began his fateful collaboration with Keith Haring. Haring, who called him “the grafitti king of the Lower East Side,” had searched Ortiz out after seeing his “tag” all over NYC upon his arrival from Pennsylvania. “My friend told me: ‘There’s some white guy with funny glasses and a tight ass looking for you,'” Ortiz relates. Ortiz was one of the earliest and best-known of an exuberant generation of street artists who would transform how America thought about art–indeed, what people would consider art.
Haring relates in his authorized biography: “I was so crazy about LA II’s tag that I asked him to collaborate with me…The images consisted of his signature and my own..” Soon thereafter, Ortiz left high school to work with Haring. They had their first joint exhibition at Tony Shafrazi gallery in 1982. LA II is credited with teaching Haring his “high and tight” style, his use of marker, how to paint using spray paint, among other innovations.LA’s style has continued to evolve, with a more complicated use of line and form and more exuberant color, but his signature style remains almost instantly recognizable–and he remains a pop icon.”
By the time Marco was introduced to LA2 by Lower East Side Legendary photographer Clayton Patterson (check out Marco in front of his mural at 4:37) who after a long rich history has recently left NYC for Austria, home of the “Governator” Arnold Schwarzenegger as reported in this Wikipedia article:
“In a relatively history-rich report on Patterson, 65 years old as of April 2014, the New York Times’ Alan Feuer reported the imminent departure of the artist from New York city for theAustrian spa town, Bad Ischl, on the Traun River in the center of the Salzkammergut region of Upper Austria; Patterson is quoted as saying of NYC, that “here’s nothing left for me… The energy is gone. My community is gone. I’m getting out… I didn’t really leave the Lower East Side. It left me.” In the same report, Alan Kaufman, a writer and a friend of Patterson, suggested his departure was akin to “Atget quitting Paris”.”
