Permanent Curios
Don Ed Hardy's weirdly beautiful pictorial narratives are drawn from a rich heritage of graphic traditions. Illustrated in this catalogue are a stunning array of paintings, drawings, and watercolors that mine sources as diverse as classical Japanese tattooing, eccentric Chinese and Tibetan pictorial traditions, and the paintings of Renaissance Siena. Tapping into and twisting the iconography and themes distilled from his twenty-year career as one of the founding fathers of modern tattooing, Hardy's paintings revel in the enigmatic allegories that surround the essential life experiences so often commemorated in tattoos--sex, love, death. Above all, it is his love of drawing--everywhere evident in this topsy-turvy mixing of old and new in subject and technique--from traditional religious iconography and modern cartoon characters to Japanese ukiyo-e painting and classic tattoo motifs from World War I--that gives Hardy's paintings their raw power, sense of humor, and alluring beauty. Essay by David Levi Strauss. OUT OF PRINT.

Lew the Jew Alberts

His previously unpublished and rare original tattoo artwork is being published as a tattoo flash collection for the first time. Albert Kurzman (1880-1954) aka Lew the Jew was one of America s most influential tattoo artists at the beginning of the 20th century. Operating primarily on New York s Bowery, Lew constructed some of the earliest electric tattoo machines, and was the first to desig...

Thom DeVita: DeVita Unauthorized
From a young age, Thom deVita mingled with famous New York School painters at the Cedar Tavern and exhibited his paintings at open air art fairs in Washington Square Park. In the 1960s he began tattooing, shortly before it became illegal in NYC. DeVita's eccentric style and sophistication significantly influenced the emergence of tattooing as an art from the 1970s onward; today deVita is viewed as a legend in the community. deVita also produced drawings and montages using acetate stencils, as well as constructions.
