art seen : noir & blanc

Lesley Taylor |

John Clark’s art work combines two of my favorite things; bold graphics and the hard boiled detective novel. Bold black portraits that twists nouveau 50’s glamour shots and punk are screenprinted on torn out pages of vintage books. For inspiration, he uses work from deviantART photographers Kokain, LoveLife, Yellow and Sunset.

ALSO FEATURED:
(top right) The Inside Within, $50, Chris Pew and Paul Urich through Receiver Gallery (1415 Valencia Street, San Francisco) a relatively new gallery that features emerging artists.
