+1... Kind of excited as I have never ordered a print from Tiny Showcase... and this will be my first Soto...

Thanks again for the heads up, Ross!

managed to bag one too! - sold out in about 10 minutes and the site was crippled with hits...

bought a couple of bits from them before - quality prints and paper - good stuff.

The site was kinda comical in a way... You could tell that their servers were getting killed for a while...

Don't imagine Tiny Showcase sells out editions of 200 in under 10 minutes so congrats to 'em & Soto for the NICE print point

no-one's going to be refunded

the edition size has been increased from 200 to 300 as it was oversold by 100

as the title says folks

Tiny Showcase Print - Self Destructive - For Sale

$50 - free shipping if you're in the U.S. -

Bored with duplicates, yes. I ordered these while at work on my iphone - didn't realize I had two in my cart until it got me to the paypal screen, (which took a good 15 min.) at which point I knew if I turned back and attempted to readjust my order and subtract one of the two, I'd end up with none.
So, no, the image is a great one and having purchased a number of tiny showcase prints over the past two or three years, it's one of my personal favorites but, I have no need for two.

20 USD.

Jeff Soto has been a hero to us for many years and it was a dream come true to be able to sit with him and have a chat about his art and his experiences so far in London. Soto is one of the kings of the Pop Surrealist/Lowbrow art scenes in America and he was here for his first ever show in London, at the Stolenspace Gallery. It was a fascinating interview that left me with a newfound respect for him and his art. Ladies & gentlemen, I present to you, the highly esteemed Jeff Soto!

Part2ism is the undisputed pioneer of British photorealism. His unique graffiti career has spanned over twenty years and his reputation has been firmly cemented in the annals of British graffiti history. More recently, his work has taken a more progressive and thematic approach. With a decade of music production under the Big Dada label also part of this man’s impressive resume, it seems that his creative boundaries know no end…UKAdapta was lucky enough to organize an interview with him after his recent “Artillery For Pleasure” show at the Urban Angel gallery.

Jeff Soto
Lifecycle

Gallery I
Solo Exhibition

June 26, 2010 through July 24, 2010
NEW YORK, NY (June 1, 2010) — Jonathan LeVine Gallery is pleased to present Lifecycle, an exhibition of new works by California based artist Jeff Soto, in what will be his third solo show at the gallery. In conjunction with this exhibition, the artist will be painting a site-specific public mural in New York City, and releasing a new limited-edition print.

Soto conveys narrative subject matter with dramatic lighting and textural richness in detailed and dynamic compositions. His work often communicates themes of nostalgia, fear, hope, and environmental issues. On the subject of his new series of paintings, however, the artist says:

“My work has always indirectly told bits and pieces of my own story, my thoughts and past. This new body of work is still autobiographical without being self-portraiture, but whereas previous exhibitions focused on current events, environmentalism, politics, and war, this show deals with themes that are more personal, emotional and timeless.”

As the show title suggests, works in Lifecycle refer to birth, death, and the voyage in between. The artist’s interest in time, mortality, fatherhood and generational relationships—within his own family and humankind in general—are explored through visual metaphors and symbolism.

Soto’s work exudes tension as his signature iconographic imagery continues to evolve. With background environments full of old machinery and industrial decay, Soto’s creatures inhabit desolate, forgotten spaces. The artist creates ominous worlds where quasi-divine apparitions with organic tendrils writhe from the cavities of smoking, robotic shells, as their lumbering frames preside over sprawling urban landscapes. Figures duel, wild flowers bloom and rainbows thrive, as dark smog and storm clouds loom amidst floating skulls.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
Jeff Soto was born and raised in Southern California, where he currently resides with his wife and daughters. In 2002, Soto graduated with Distinction from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California. In 2008, his work was the subject of an exhibition at Riverside Art Museum. He has published multiple books on his artwork, which has been exhibited in galleries and museums around the world. The artist’s distinct color palette, subject matter and technique resonate with a growing audience: inspired by childhood toys, skateboarding, graffiti, hip-hop and popular culture. His bold, representational work is simultaneously accessible and stimulating.
