Peter Bagge at Scott Eder Gallery In Brooklyn

Peter Bagge is having a solo art show at Scott Eder Gallery In Brooklyn, opening April 9th and running through May 5th.

Bagge’s style moves to a fluid beat, incorporating elastic design with over-the-top characterizations and brutally honest portrayals of suburban and domestic landscapes. The ever-present humor and slick signature gags effortlessly poke fun at the subjects and the reader while at the same time coating the darker matter and message of his social commentaries. The best comedians make fun of us, but most people never know it…so it is with Peter’s stories and characters: there might be a rubber tip covering the syringe, but the prick is still there. Rarely matched by any other artist of his generation for this blend of humor, social/politcal viewpoints and cartooning bravado, Peter continues to spread his brand of graphic expression while maintaining the core style and evolving ideologies true to his game.
