Matt Momchilov: American Leather
July 8 to August  26 at The Painted Bird, Los Angeles.
Building on the history and visual language of punk fashion and fan  art, artist Matt Momchilov has created a series of portrait jackets  which insert unexpected subversive cultural pioneers into the lexicon of  punk rock fan art. These works are both a celebration of the figures  themselves, and a way to understand the histories and cultural  contributions of these unlikely vanguards as important models of  rebellion. On view in American Leather will be a selection of pieces  from this series. This is the premier Los Angeles solo exhibition from  the artist.
