Karma, 2008, colored pencil on paper, 30 x 44″
It’s no surprise that artist Eric Yahnker has worked on TV shows like South Park and Seinfeld in light of a new humorous body of work he’s exhibiting this Friday at Jack the Pelican Presents gallery in Brooklyn. His art is described as comical but poignant:
“Eric finds ‘little cracks,’ as he says, “in the status quo.” Each of his pieces is a fully realized joke. But one liners they are not. Instead, they resonate with a powerfully good vibe.”
Like the above piece entitled “Karma” featuring the former animal torturing duo Siegfried & Roy with the frightful mauler that ended their career—and Roy’s life.
