About

Limited Edition of 25

In his systematic encounters with pop culture, Kelley Walker has earned himself the nickname of “post-pop wizard”. Walker produces a series of loaded pop images through a copy, cut, and reprint technique that often involves screen-printing and an Epson ink jet printer. The artist also explores the concept of contamination by integrating alien bodies and elements to his works. Whether computer glitches appearing on photographs of natural disasters, or perfectly constructed brick walls cemented with pages from decoration reviews, the results are often violent, hilarious, spontaneous, and overdetermined all at once. Rather than simple silkscreens, Walker’s masterful precision often creates the impression of looking at a mosaic.

The Artist

Kelley Walker

Kelley Walker (b. 1969, Columbus, Georgia) is an American post-conceptual artist whose multidisciplinary practice explores the circulation, transformation, and consumption of images in contemporary culture. Working across painting, collage, sculpture, and installation, Walker appropriates imagery from advertising, media, and popular culture, manipulating it through digital processes, silkscreen printing, and unconventional materials such as chocolate and toothpaste.

His work draws on the legacies of Pop Art and the Pictures Generation while questioning how images acquire meaning as they move through different contexts. Often combining familiar visual references with abstraction and material disruption, Walker creates works that examine consumerism, media, and the relationship between technology and contemporary image-making. His work is held in major collections including MoMA, the Whitney Museum, and Tate.
