GAME PLAN
John Stango - TBD, 2024
Lilac Gallery New York is pleased to present “Game Plan” an exhibition of works by John Stango. A wonderful collection of fine art pieces blending the pop art movement into the 21st Century with his powerful play on iconic trends and household names comprised into his latest works.
Stango creates his artworks upon the 1950’s tradition, infusing it with a new, vibrant, colorful, and masculine approach. With well defined and intense brush strokes, painting with his body using explosions of color, aggressive textures, jarring contrasts and intense highlights. His subjects usually consist of iconic bombshell women, designer logos, sports heroes, stewardesses, Americana images, all while competing with and complementing one another, yielding exceptional compositions we are instantly drawn to. John draws his artistic inspiration from retro advertising, pop icons, B-movies, mid-century modernism, magazines, noir films, vintage signage and all things pop-culture. Forming a unique combination of both silk-screening and hand painting, John creates pieces that are all at once nostalgic and modern.
