I suppose Cleon Peterson is the kind of artist you love or hate, his brightly coloured neon paintings and prints are immediately recognisable and almost always filled with scenes of ultra violence. He's really popular with the urban art crowd and has even been a guest artist at OBEY. I've read and seen Clockwork Orange a few times now so this work is right up my street, jam-packed with cynical social commentary and almost a "Where's Waldo?" quality in some of his more panoramic pieces like this one. Anyway if you've no idea who the guy is but want to know more then there's a cool interview with him at Anthem Magazine. If you need more then look him up on the net, he's everywhere

Here's the press release "The BLDG is excited to announce the release of a new print series by artist Cleon Peterson. For those of you unfamiliar with Cleon"s work he is know for creating anxiety-riddled worlds fueled by violence and chaos. Cleon produces a world where deviance is the norm and his characters are forced to navigate through a lawless terrain.

Both prints measure 13.5 x 17.5 and are printed on heavy 100% cotton paper using ink so bright it may cause blindness. The prints will be released sharply at 1:00 pm EST on July 14th. For more information visit www.BLDGrefuge.com for more information.
