Description
Irons was a psychedelic poster artist, an underground cartoonist, a book illustrator and an emerging tattoo art virtuoso who brought a new sensibility to an age-old art form. He was only 37 when a speeding bus on a busy Bangkok street killed him in 1984. This retrospective spans his whole artistic career, from his earliest dance posters, to his groundbreaking science fiction and horror comix, to his innovative and colourful tattoo art. This panoramic collection is framed by Rosenkranz’s extensive and revealing portrait of the artist.
