PRESENTS FEATURED SELLER Item Location: Northbrook, IL 60062United States Ken Keeley 20TH CENTURY NEWSSTAND Art Mixed Media FrameDescription Shown here is a unique piece of artwork created by renowned American artist, Ken Keeley. This work, entitled: "20th Century Newsstand" is a mixed media piece utilizing various collage elements to form an almost 3D effect. In this work, Keeley has juxtaposed various figures of 20th century pop culture and placed them within a newsstand setting. This is the first piece of artwork done in this particular style by Keeley that we have seen. Many pop culture icons are represented here including New Yorker and Rolling Stone magazines, Marlon Brando, Elvis, Marilyn Monroe, Michael Jordan, Mickey Mouse, Charlie Chaplin, JFK, Winston Churchill, a Hershey's candy bar wrapper, and much, much more!Keeley's process: The figures have been culled from various newspaper headlines and magazine covers and were then painstakingly reproduced in a smaller format by Keeley. Keeley then took the individual reproductions and collaged the pieces into the setting by floating them with clips and other devices. The result is an overlap effect, which gives the piece an overall feeling of reality. This piece has been framed and measures 34.5 inches x 50 inches overall. Image size is approximately 24 inches x 39 inches. A handsome mat encloses the collage to give the piece a shadow box-like effect. The piece is in very good condition. It is a little loose in the back by the upper left corner. The heavy wood frame is also in very good condition with some minor nicks and normal wear. The piece is ready for hanging. This unique and unusual work of art could be yours today! ARTIST BIO:Ken Keeley is an American artist who is recognized as a leader in superrealism.
