About the Item
Stella Illustrator/Artist Roger Hane's painting of three bodyless shirts set against a surreal landscape is more than what it appears to be. The painting was created on assignment for Playboy Magazine to accompany an article on Men's fashion titled "Knit Picks". Upon closer examination, fifty-five years after its creation, the painting is a blend of Surrealism, Minimalism, and Illustration Art. Look carefully at the magenta shirt, and it's a painstaking arrangement of car emojis. Each car is ever so slightly different from the next and lined up with the precision of an Agnes Martin grid painting. The same applies to the other shirt patterns. The shirts alone are a testament to the artist's meticulous technical skill and patience in completing a deceptively simple yet complex artwork.
The work is unsigned and housed in it's original heavy metal frame. It appeared on page 115 of the August 1971 issue of Playboy Magazine, illustrating the fashion article by Robert L. Green titled "Knit Picks," with the caption "Easy-wearing casual shirts in eye-appealing patterns."

Modern Photography Cover, Surreal Landscape
By Mitchell Funk
Located in Miami, FL
Historically , newsstand magazines have used a standard set of practices when it came to choosing their cover image. Their goal was to use an image that people could instantly relate to. The idea being, if an image pops off the page it will attract more attention and then generate more newsstand sales. For editors, choosing a cover was first a marketing decision and then an aesthetic one. That is why most magazine covers and (that includes art magazines) pretty much looked the same. They used familiar images, mostly of celebrities, beauty people or news items of that would beckon and aggressively reach out to the prospect. In this Modern Photography Cover of August 1983, they chose a radical departure. They used an image that was the opposite of the norm.
