Kenny Scharf, self-described “pop surrealist”, is an American artist known for his dynamic and vividly colourful creations in painting, sculpture, and performance art. Scharf's fun, colourful work is both a nod to the future and a reference to past art historical movements such as Pop and Surrealism. Since his rise to prominence over 30 years ago, Scharf continues to approach his practice with playfulness and a youthful spirit, reaching beyond the elitist boundaries of fine art and connecting to popular culture through his work.
