DESCRIPTION:
His work is instantly recognizable for its trademark combination of sly humor and vibrant colors. . Shag is an internationally acclaimed modern artist whose expertly rendered paintings are visual celebrations of life's pleasures and indulgences
This is the softcover edition.. Shag's art looks back on the pop culture of the mid 20th century and blends it with a dose of modern irony, humor, and joy. Blending cartoon, tiki, and vintage illustrative sensibilities, Shag has garnered the attention of a legion of devoted fans and collectors who will delight in this new collection of his work. An acolyte of Exotica, Tiki Culture, and cartoon illustration, Shag's work first looks retro, but on closer inspection is seen to be a loving exploration of the popular subconscious. Shag is a leading light in contemporary hip art
Art of Shag: Bottomless Cocktail by Shag Sandra This is a wonderful book with the art of Josh Agle (SHAG). It is a nice sampling of various types of his body of work. A great coffee table book. I highly recommend it to any SHAG fan or fan of 50's and 60's looking art!. Breakthrough Illustrator SHAG!! Gotham Girl18 Of course, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a bit envious of how this illustrator creates such great masterpieces. Shag, aka Josh Agle, has perplexed the minds of many who often wonder how such simplistic paintings attract such a devoted fanbase. Stars such as Whoopi Goldberg have collected his work, making simple prints skyrocket to unobtainable prices. This book showcases some of Shag's work, and the pictures are of the highest quality.Having had the pleasure of actually meeting Shag at an art gallery in Long Beach, I. SHAG-tastic!!! Absolutely fabulous images!!! I have been a fan of SHAG's artwork for a few years. This is the second book that I own displaying his artwork, with the first one being Supersonic Swingers (2000). I currently have "Shag Party: Cocktails and Appetizers to Seduce and Entertain" on order with AMAZON. I anxiously await its arrival. It's great to have access to so many of his incredible works without having to spend thousands of dollars on an original piece, although if I had it ($) to spend on artwork, I'd have a room full!!
