Glenn Barr

glenn barrDark, muted colors dominate the work of Detroit lowbrow artist Glenn Barr, with the denizens of his world always seeming to be in a perpetual post-pop depression. Part 60′s surf culture, part beatnik, part cartoons-gone-wild, Barr’s work is mesmerizing.

    I first saw his work in Juxtapoz Magazine and fell in love with his Flintstones paintings.

    Barr’s one of the folks I aspire to be. I love what he does with the human form. Every piece of work he creates has an essesnce of “cool”. I’ve been a fan ever since I saw his cover for Funkdoobiest’s Which Doobie U B?

    I remember that album cover, and I think that that was the first time I saw his work.
