Emblem of an Abstract Riot no.2 - by Patrick Wong

I have a new Pop Surrealism sculpture release available starting today entitled "Emblem of an Abstract Riot no.2". It's the followup to the Mickey Mouse inspired version first released back in 2015.
The phrase "emblem of an abstract" comes from the essay "On the Rights of the Molotov Man" published back in 2007 in Harper's Magazine. It discusses copyright and appropriation in the art world. At the time I had been threatened with a copyright infringement lawsuit and this topic was close to home. The "Emblem of an Abstract Riot" sculpture originally was a reaction to the lawsuit.

"Emblem of an Abstract Riot no.2" measures 6 x 6 x 3.75 inches. Available to order through the webshop http://patrickwong.bigcartel.com, the handcrafted resin art-multiples are priced at $200 and available for a limited time.
