"Sponge Brain Upside Down, 2020" is a captivating archival pigment print by Emilio Garcia, renowned for his brain-inspired sculptures. Born in Tarragona, Spain, in January 1981, Garcia's fascination with cognitive development and pop culture drives his exploration of human brain neuroplasticity through vibrant and iconic contemporary sculptures and paintings.
Educated at the Escola d'Art i Disseny de Tarragona in Graphic Design, Garcia began his career in cartoon animation studios in Barcelona, working as a layout artist and illustrator. Transitioning to freelance art direction, he collaborated with major international companies such as Berlitz Corporation, Hitachi, and Diesel, specializing in user interface design and interactive content. His work has been featured in esteemed publications, including the "Web Design Index" series and "Taschen's 1000 Favorite Websites."
Concerned with society's increasing digitalization and detachment from tactile experiences, Garcia redirected his focus in 2008, embracing physical objects as a means of creative expression. Under his brand, The Secret Lapo Laboratories (also known as Lapolab), he embarked on a new journey as a product designer, sculptor, and painter, exploring the innovative possibilities of plastic.
This print encapsulates Garcia's dynamic exploration of the intersection between art, neuroscience, and contemporary culture, inviting viewers to engage with the complexities of the human mind through vibrant imagery and tactile forms.

- Tom Petty Mojo Tour Shepard Fairey Holographic Slikscreen Contemporary Music ArtBy Shepard FaireyLocated in Draper, UTThe Mojo poster was part of VIP ticket packages for the tour. Artists: Shepard Fairey Bands: Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers Edition Details Year: 2010 Class: Fine Art Print Status: Official Tour Print Run: 175/250 Paper: Holographic Fine Art Foil Paper Size: 18 X 24 Markings: Numbered by the artist in black felt marker. Print measures 18X24 and is in perfect condition with no visible flaws. Any questions please let us know. Thank you Frank Shepard Fairey was born February 15, 1970 in Charleston, South Carolina, USA. Fairey's adolescence was shaped by the influences of punk-rock and skateboarding. In his teens, he began creating his own bootlegged clothing and skateboard decals featuring bands and brands he liked. Fairey’s early bootlegs were created because his generally conservative parents would not purchase the clothing he wanted. In 1986, he stumbled upon the Andre the Giant image for which he has become famous for, in a local newspaper. The image was selected when Fairey demonstrated to a friend how to make a stencil; it was modified slightly to include the meaningless caption “Andre the Giant has a Posse” and made into a sticker. The sticker was reproduced en masse and began to appear around Charleston as it spread through the skateboarding community. While the sticker had no inherent meaning, the public response varied from disregard to curiosity to out-right fear. Civic groups editorialized and theorized that the Andre image was affiliated with everything from a band to a hate group. Nevertheless, the stickers were considered vandalism and in time, Fairey would face numerous charges for defacing public property. Fairey's record includes 15 arrests as of March 2009, for defacing property as a result of his so called bombing campaigns. Fairey affixed the stickers on municipal properties nearly everywhere he went, and the Andre sticker was being seen in Boston and New York City, soon others procured the image and were encouraged to spread the campaign worldwide in the form of stickers, stencils and wheat-paste posters. Following high school, Fairey was accepted to the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), where, with an interest in screen printing, he majored in illustration. In 1992, while still attending RISD, Fairey started Alternate Graphics, a mail order catalog business through which he could merchandise his own t-shirts, skateboards, posters and stickers. He also took small commercial illustration jobs to help supplement his income. Shortly thereafter, the Andre the Giant Has a Posse logo was shortened simply to Obey Giant. The Obey, for which Fairey has also become synonymous, is derived from the 1988 John Carpenter film They Live. In the film, aliens who appear as human, rule the governments and economies of the world while the humans are reduced to an unwitting, hypnotized slave-class. Themes from the film continue to appear in Fairey’s work. Over time, the Andre the Giant face was modified into a more simplified and streamlined appearance, reminiscent of Russian Constructivist/Rodchenko style Soviet propaganda posters of the 20th Century. In 1994, filmmaker Helen Stickler featured Fairey and his sticker phenomenon in her documentary: Andre the Giant has a Posse. The following year, Fairey started Subliminal Projects with the late Blaize Blouin, his friend and pro-skateboarder. Subliminal Projects created and released several Obey-Giant themed posters and skateboard decks. Fairey directed a short skateboarding film featuring some of his friends through Subliminal Projects and Alternate Graphics titled A.D.D.(Attention Deficit Disorder). In 1996, Fairey moved to San Diego, California to create Giant Distribution with partner Andy Howell. Later, with Howell, Phillip De Wolff, Dave Kinsey, he formed First Bureau of Imagery (FBI), a branding, marketing and design firm established to focus on the increasingly lucrative sports market. FBI was closed in 1999 and Fairey, along with De Wolff and Kinsey created BLK/MRKT, similar to FBI. At this time, Fairey met and began working with Amanda Alaya, whom he would later marry. BLK/MRKT moved to Los Angeles in 2001. Here, they could expand and were able to incorporate a small gallery. Fairey and Kinsey eventually bought out De Wolff’s share of the partnership and by then had set up offices in the Pellissier Building (home of the historic Wiltern Theater), in the Koreatown section of Downtown Los Angeles. In December 2001, Fairey and Alaya were married in Charleston, South Carolina, Amanda has occasionally been the model for Fairey's prints (see: Commanda, 2007). Additionally, Amanda Fairey works in the capacity as publicist, agent and representative of her husband. In 2003, Kinsey and Fairey split. Kinsey retained the BLK/MRKT name and gallery, which he relocated to Culver City, California. Fairey retained the offices and most of the employees to create Studio Number One and the gallery was renamed Subliminal Projects. Studio No. 1 has since gone on to produce numerous memorable album covers, concert and film posters. In 2004, Fairey created the magazine Swindle with his old friend Roger Gastman. Swindle is a quarterly publication that features fashion, art, music and other pop-culture elements. During the 2004 presidential election, Fairey teamed up with artists Mear One...Category
