From the Publisher:
A gem-like catalog produced in conjunction with Ben Jones’ first solo show in Athens, Greece. Ben Jones, a member of the art collective Paper Rad, makes fantastic cartoon surrealist paintings one part Stanley Kubrick and one part Andy Warhol. He’s a young pop master and this catalog celebrates his first major solo show. Using 8 different spot colors, Jones has replicated the process of looking at his day-glo paintings, in print form. Included here are working drawings for installations and paintings, as well as print-only images that any Paper Rad fan will have to have.
