Portrait of the Artist in Plastic

Jarvis Rockwell's toys plumb the emotional depths of culture, religion, and the artist's own relationship with his famous father, Norman Rockwell.

Yes, but is it art? Well, probably not, but all those toys sure are cool to look at! I dream of being able to have a room in my house, with large glass cases in which to display all my mexican masked-wrestler action figures. (via ArtKrush*)

*By the way ArtKrush is featuring my old studio neighbor from grad school, Su-en Wong. She's one of maybe four people on Earth who has actually paid money to own some of my art!
