In the Land of Retinal Delights: The Juxtapoz Factor

The Laguna Beach Art Museum will be hosting an exhibition entitled ‘In the Land of Retinal Delights: The Juxtapoz Factor‘ from June 22 - Oct 5, 2008.

In the Land of Retinal Delights: The Juxtapoz Factor is an exhibition that presents the work of 150 artists and posits that there has been a huge, but unacknowledged art movement taking place in this country for the last 40 years. Since 1994, this ground swelling of lowbrow, surrealistic, pop, figurative, narrative work has coalesced and found a voice in the pages of Juxtapoz magazine published in San Francisco.

The show is curated by Meg Linton. Mark Murphy has been chosen to design and produce the full-color catalogue along with Ginko Press featuring essays created by by the curator and Laguna Art Museum director Bolton Colburn.

Artists include: Gary Baseman, Tim Biskup, Tiffany Bozic, Dalek, Ron English, Neck Face, Shepard Fairey, Phil Frost, Os Gemeos, Doze Green, Jim Houser, Matt Leines, Barry McGee, Takashi Murakami, Mark Ryden, Andrew Schoultz, Joe Sorren, Jeff Soto, Swoon.

This show is going to be epic.
