Kenny Scharf, Ltd Ed, "Pop Art" Lighter - VERY COOL!

KENNY SCHARF (1958-) Kenny Scharf first came to artistic prominence in the early 1980s in New York, along with artists Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat. His penchant for customizing his immediate surroundings - decorating TVs, phones, walls, and furniture with crazy painted patterns raised his profile measurably early in his career. He placed his bright imagery, drawn from television and pop culture, on the streets and in nightclubs of the city, helping to nurture a dynamic and freewheeling scene. Scharf is a prolific artist who has worked in many traditional media, including painting, printmaking, drawing and sculpture. He has also designed lifeguard stations, Zippo lighters, watches, cellphones, carpets and carnival carousels, along with working on animated films in Hollywood.OriginalLimited Edition Color PrintedZippo Lighter withNumbered Display Box, 1993.
