Don Ed Hardy
Floater State II

2007

About the Item

Color lithograph, Edition 20. Don Ed Hardy’s lithographs, created in the spring of 2007, continue the “look” of his Ghost Writer painting series which has been developed over the past five years. They are evocative of ancient Chinese stone rubbings, or x-rays. Both prints refer to earlier images from Japanese art history. Floater State II, a meditating skeleton poised above surging waves, was done from memory after a 19th century Japanese painting. It reflects the classic Japanese themes of life’s transience and cheerful macabre humor, as well as making reference to the notion of our earthly existence as a “floating world” that is always subject to ebbs, flows, and sudden changes.

The Seven Deadly Sins: Sheltering in Place
By Enrique Chagoya
Located in Lyons, CO
Color lithograph with collage, Edition 30. The artist describes this project: "This lithograph has been produced keeping in mind the pandemonium sparked by the departing administration and its long-term effects on society. I worked the images during shelter in place without being able to travel to the Shark’s studio in Lyons for the first time in a couple of decades. It has been our first collaboration at a distance, but still in close communication, and very workable. My print focuses on some of these issues (with a sense of humor inspired by James Ensor’s version of The Seven Deadly Sins...
