New Set Of Prints Available on ZeroFriends.com!!

So, there's a lot going down following the release of the Used's "Lies for the Liars", which is killing it on the shelves. If you don't have it, please pick it up and help support the dying art of CD packaging, which is slowly deteriorating, like Lindsay Lohan's sanity.
Anyway, here is a peek at the 2 new prints available.
Each one is a Limited Edition Of 200.

17" x 17" Printed with Archival Inks on Acid Free Fine Art Velvet Cotton Rag.

Each print is hand signed and numbered by Meeeeee and my right hand.
More updates soon.

Alex Pardee x AIDEN: CONVICTION

So, here is the big announcement that i have been waiting to make...
I AM DOING THE COVER ART AND PACKAGING DESIGN FOR SEATTLE-BASED ROCK BAND AIDEN'S NEW CD, ENTITLED "CONVICTION", DROPPING IN AUGUST.

Yes, this is true. After a little while of talking back and forth, Aiden and I finally got together to discuss their new album and the look and feel of the packaging. It's going to be simulateously viscious and beautiful. I met Aiden on the road during this last TASTE OF CHAOS and, creatively, we clicked immediately. So the next step was to collaborate. Viceroy Pierce and i headed up to Seattle and sat down with them and listened to the new album, discussed themes and got a really cool concept down for the cover. I am really excited about this project. You can check out Aiden at http://www.myspace.com/aiden or aiden.org

More info and sneak peaks soon.
We look pretty together.

LIES FOR THE LIARS

The new CD from THE USED, "Lies for the Liars", which i did all of the art/design/photography for, got released today on regular edition and a special edition with a making-of dvd. This is a project that has been really fucking close to me for the last 7 months and i couldn't be happier being a part of it. Theres a ton of photos and art inside the booklets, so be sure to check it out.
And if you are insterested in who that boxy-lookin guy is on the cover, you can find out more about him, his story, and his universe at HIS MYSPACE PROFILE

THE VADER PROJECT

Everyone my age is a StarWars nut. Even if you are closeted about it. Star Wars is our Harry Potter. So I was excited as shit in a dynamite barrel when i was asked to participate in this project. Soooo, after we were told to keep this secret for months, it is now officially announced. So here is the press release, as well as pics of my helmet. The coolest thing about the helmets? They were all made from the original mold and they are WAY bigger than i imagined. David Prowse has a huge dome.
I am really curious to see the other helmets, theres a ton of people on this list of artists.

also, i think the rest of the pics will be uploaded on myspace.com/thevaderproject

THE VADER PROJECT
75 artists customize Darth Vader helmets in landmark gallery exhibition for
Star Wars Celebration IV
May 24th to 28th, 2007
Los Angeles Convention Center



May 16, 2007 (Los Angeles, CA)-- The Vader Project, a reimagining of the iconic Darth Vader helmet by some of today’s hottest pop and underground artists, will have its World Premiere May 24 to 28th, 2007 at Star Wars Celebration IV, a landmark event being held at the Los Angeles Convention Center to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of Star Wars. The five-day event is expected to attract more than 25,000 Star Wars fans from around the world (www.gencon.com/2007/swciv).

The Vader Project is presented by Master Replicas Inc. and curated by Dov Kelemer of DKE Toys. Kelemer gathered 75 of the hottest underground and pop surrealist painters, artists and designers to participate. Each artist was given a Master Replicas 1:1 scale prop replica of the actual Darth Vader helmet used in the Star Wars films. Each helmet served as a blank canvas for each artist to paint, design, mash up, and customize.

Artists include Shag, Paul Frank, Mr Cartoon, Tim Biskup, Frank Kozik, Marc Ecko, Amanda Visell, Tim Biskup, J. Otto Seibold, Gary Baseman, Joe Ledbetter, Robbie Conal, Jeff Soto and many more. Many of these artists jumped at the chance to lend their talents to one of the most iconic pop culture characters in film history.

Keith Bornholtz, Vice President of Consumer Marketing for Master Replicas, said, "We are pleased to provide this excellent canvas to this group of talented international artists and introduce them to their new intergalactic fans."

"This could not be a timelier event," Kelemer said. "The pop surrealist/
lowbrow/graffiti/designer art scene is exploding around us. A canvas is what you make it, from bunnies to cows to toilet seats. The ‘platform’ group show has been around, and we have seen it all."

Ugly Doll co-creator David Horvath said it best: "It’s Darth Vader!!! It’s the most recognizable character in the universe. After this exhibition we don't ever need to be in a platform show again."

After the premiere at Star Wars Celebration IV the plan is for exhibition to travel to museums, galleries, and events around the world. The helmets will then be offered publicly at auction. Details will be announced later.

Master Replicas (www.masterreplicas.com) has created the highest quality 1:1 and scaled prop replicas for Star Wars. Using all the latest technologies and often scouring the Lucasfilm Archives, the company has released some of the finest and most sought-after movie-related collectibles. The company’s licensed properties include Disney, Muppets, Star Trek, Pirates of the Caribbean, Harry Potter, and many more.

Curator Dov Kelemer, founder of DKE Toys (www.dketoys.com), is one of the largest designer vinyl and art-toy distributors in the world, exclusively representing over 50 companies, artists, and designers. Having started his business selling Star Wars memorabilia more than 15 years ago he has finally found a way to meld both his passions.
