An painting on panel made using silkscreen printing and paint. Starting by sampling the famous image of Magic Johnson in a fur coat and pairing it with convenience store staples of donuts and beer, this piece touches on a range of excesses in American culture. The bright colors play off of the idealized image of Los Angeles in the collective American psyche.

Alexander Key is an emerging contemporary artist from Charlotte, North Carolina. His work appropriates a wide variety of cultural ephemera, extracting familiar aesthetics and re-contextualizing them into new compositions that act as bittersweet commentaries. Mining from the resonance of childhood images and personal nostalgia, he explores the impact of these mental keepsakes on a broader collective memory. Working primarily in the medium of silkscreen printing, his work ranges from monotone prints to densely layered paintings. Please reach out if you are interested in showing his work or want to know more about his artistic practice.
