Welcome

Check out Kustom Japan just published for the exhibition opening at Track 16 Gallery in May. The pallets have just reached this side of the pacific and are now shipping. Also we have Don Ed Hardy’s Tattooing the Invisible Man which is akin to being a codex of his career in tattooing and art: illustrated with 553 images.

Track 16 Gallery’s cathedral exhibit to commemorate the 30th annversary of Jeffrey Vallance’s Blinky closed in March, but you can still order the recently published 30th Anniversary Edition. We have also produced two Blinky multiples for the exhibit: a flying disk and a bumper sticker. Both produced in very limited editions of 200. The Blinky Trifecta is available for ordering all three in one fell swoop.

The exhibition catalog Pedro Alvarez: The Signs Pile Up is now available. We published it in conjunction with the Winter 2008 exhibit at the University of California, Riverside, Sweeney Gallery, which is great examination of the Cuban painter’s career. We’ve been big fans of Pedro’s work and here you can also find his artist book Pedro Alvarez: How Havana Stole from New York the Idea of Cuban Art.

We have three recently published Pinspots by Irish painter Michelle Rogers, fashion provocateur Lunna Menoh, and British painter Paul Joyce.

Also, for the first time Smart Art Press has culled through its archives and are making available some rare books that have been out of print for some time. Including, Jim Shaw Dreams, Pierre Molinier, Marcel Dzama: Famous Drawings, and Lisa Yuskavage. View the entire list of Rare and Out of Print.

So browse our shevles and peruse the more than hundred books, films, multiples, etc that we’ve published over the last thirteen years.
