This groovy take on everyone’s favorite pop art icon is only around for a few days at 1xrun. Screen print artist Anthony Cozzi takes Marilyn Monroe right back to the bare-bones basics. So what happens when you strip away her glamour and make-up? You get her skeleton. Literally.

Cool, limited edition prints show up on the website for a few days with a timer. And the goal is to buy the piece before it times out and disappears forever. So catch Norma before she’s gone. Again!

In honor of the 85th anniversary of the Oscars, the designers at Shutterstock have created Pop Art movie posters for each of the Best Picture nominees. Drawing inspiration from Pop Art greats such as Andy Warhol, Robert Rauschenberg, Roy Lichtenstein, Robert Indiana, and Keith Haring, each Oscar nominee gets its own Pop Art makeover. Now it’s time to roll out the multi-colored carpet.

The Rodnik Band is not a traditional fashion label but rather an ironic pop band. Philip Colbert, the British designer behind The Rodnik Band, has created a unique fashion concept, combining aspects of his self composed music, fashion and his love of the Pop Art Movement. His latest collection, Venus in Sequins, salutes artists such as Marcel Duchamp, Andy Warhol and Tom Wesselmann by creating a series of limited edition wearable forms of their most famous works.

Colbert designs each print by hand using lino printing techniques. His mix of bright colours and surreal style walks a humorous line between fashion and art. Since starting in 2008, Colbert has picked up a lot of supporters such as Karl Lagerfeld and earned the sobriquet “Godson of Andy Warhol” – this from Andre Leon Tally. Only a handful of fashionable risk-takers could really pull these handmade pieces off but with only six of each style released, it wouldn’t be a bad addition to any art collection.

Chicago photographer Lisa Predko’s work has a vibrant style that is unmistakable. Her series, Head Vases, is simple in its idea but exhibits a new type of pop art portraiture arousing energy and emotion, not only from the subjects themselves, but also in their composition and colouring.

There’s nothing crazy about fanart, just with Nicky Barkla. Well known characters, turn psychedelic creations, exploding the color spectrum and our loveable icons portray a whole new persona. A tasteful contradiction, if you will. I came across the art through one of the many links flooding the Internet. I’m seeing new colors in my day from this point on.

Thanks to Mari Kasurinen, even if you never loved My Little Pony as a kid, there is a perfect My Little Pony for you now. Her original sculptures are the best of pop art: fun melt-in-your-mind candy.

Andy Rementer’s gonzo cartoon style seems to wink at those of us who have gotten the cosmic punchline and are just grinning at our fellow humans as they start to wake up as well.

Pop agit hero and occasional Lost At E Minor contributor Ron English played a typically clever, snide, brilliant April Fools joke down on the US-Mexico border last week, though, as our friends at Boing Boing note: ‘this piece of sociopolitical satire is going to backfire because the Tea Party will find out about it and demand that it be permanently installed at every border crossing’.

Martin Kreloff is a second generation pop artist living and working in Las Vegas. His work features iconic stars of Hollywood and Broadway juxtaposed with traditional Japanese Ukiyo-e art. Much like East Meets Mae West.

Brazilian-based graphic designer Rafael Castilho (aka Atomic Ghost) seamlessly pastes up and blends images of motorcycle gangs to zombies and grizzly bears to create highly iconographic productions inspired by the Pop Art movement. Check out his impressive series titled Collages.

Ryan Riss, aka Craptical, is firmly rooted in the grotesque school of pop art, drawing heavily from horror comics, drug culture imagery, and the work of Ed ‘Big Daddy’ Roth. Beneath the irreverence and sophomoric imagery, however, is contrastingly well-controlled line work and a mature sense of design and composition.

Norman Saunders was one of the most celebrated pulp artists of the ’30s, ’40s, ’50s, and ’60s, with his images adorning the covers of thousands of comic books, dimestore paperbacks, and trashy men’s magazines. The Illustrated Press has just published a retrospective of Saunders’ work.

Stranglehold, at Sydney’s First Draft Gallery, is an exhibition of new drawings and screenprints by James Jirat Patradoon, exploring his take on fantasy hyper-masculinity with portraits inspired by slasher movie villains, pro wrestlers, biker gangs, and Elvis. This series examines notions of deferred mascullinities: confused and misdirected rites of passage informed more by cartoons and action heroes than by reality itself. Drawn in a style influenced by the comics and cartoons of his youth, Jirat Patradoon’s images of fist-fights and tough-guy bravado consider the idea of violence as the purest form of masculine statement and its integral place in the male mythos. The exhibition opens on February 4.

I’m really enjoying the beautiful work of artist Mike Bertino. Each piece is like ten stories crammed full of pop references and then wedged cheek-to-cheek into one glorious, colorful piece of surreal, eye popping goodness.

I just adore the retro, colorful paintings of Vancouver illustrator Ryan Heshka. Teeming with curvacious bombshells and sci-fi monsters running amok, Heshka most certainly has the retro B-movie aesthetic down to an artform. As an added bonus, Heshka even dedicates a section of his portfolio to his childhood drawings. This guy clearly had skills from the get-go.

Antonio de Pascale is somewhat of a modern pop artist. He recreates familiar supermarket packaging with highly detailed illustrative narratives. His website is content heavy, so prepare yourself. But it’s worth the wait as the works are high resolution and 3D. The acrylic on canvas works are available to view and purchase. It’s food for thought. I’m sorry, it was too easy.

Joe Coleman’s paintings are a feverish cross between Ivan Albright-inspired grotesqueness and R. Crumb-like pop-social critique. Calling himself an ‘apocalyptic visionary painter’, the 52-year-old artist references Spanish-Mexican religious iconography and his intricate and obsessively detailed images often feature well-known criminals and outsiders, whom Coleman seems to consider himself to be.
