Sister Corita: The Print Making Nun

It's been argued by many, that Sister Corita was one of the greatest artists of her time...rivaling even that of Andy Warhol.

"A Catholic convent and college in Los Angeles might seem an unlikely breeding ground for Pop Art and social commentary. However, for nearly three decades, Sister Mary Corita—a Catholic nun, teacher, and inspiration to such luminaries as Buckminster Fuller and Charles Eames—devoted her life to creating cutting-edge serigraphs. In 1946, a decade after joining the Order of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, Sister Corita began teaching art at Immaculate Heart College and by 1952 she had exhibited her first screenprint..."

BRAINSTORMs 'SAILORS DELIGHT' POSTER

Brainstorm Print & Design hail from New Jersey and they've got a killer collection of work under their hats. Their work is humorous and on point. Not over conceptualized. Not uptight. I am absolutely flippin' out over their 'HELLO' print (these babies are sold as a 5-piece grouping). Brainstorm has taken something as lame & generic as a HELLO name tag and doodled the likenesses of 5 of the most important artists of all time.

MR. BRAINWASH: NEW PRINT. NEW SHOW

Stencil/ wheatpaste madman, Mr. Brainwash is crazy-busy these days...he's building up for his huge NYC gig 'ICONS' this February. How big is big, you say? I'm told that he's high-jacked a 15,000 square foot space in NYCs Meat Packet District AND he's donating a portion of his sales to the American Red Cross for Aid to Haiti.

Each of his Mondrian inspired, 8-color screen prints are on archival paper and hand finished, splashed with spraypaint, signed & numbered by MBW. He's even included his thumb print on the flipside...for that added bit of authenticity. The 36"x36" print drops January 20th.
