Art for the People
A Rare Collection of Authentic Archival Soviet Propaganda accompanied by the
Pop Surrealist work of Robert Pasternak
There will be a huge salvaged collection of Soviet WWII - Cold War era
.....
prints
posters
photographs
16mm/35mm film
****FOR SALE*****
A museum/university quality collection direct from Moscow via the defunct Soviet-Canadian Friendship Society.
Formally,
the pairing between Pasternak and the collection emphasizes a consideration
of the era's design aesthetic, advertising sensibilities and printmaking techniques.
While the juxtaposition of the mixed media, presented in a contemporary Post Collapse
era provides a surreal celebration of a bygone Fantasy and Ideal "Reality" that maybe
never really "Existed".
ROBERT PASTERNAK
Is a Winnipeg-based, multi-disciplinary pop surrealist who moves seamlessly from
metaphysical paintings and science-fiction illustration to hand-processed film, collage
with found materials, to imaginative product-design. From High-Sci-Fi to Low-Scrounge
comix, Pasternak has exhibited his work extensively in his 27-year art practice, and Nak’s
illustrations have graced album covers, science fiction magazines, and literary book jackets.
His exhibits are always different in that they usually highlight one of the multitude of areas of
visionary visual work that he is continually juggling and adding to. Nak has exhibited at
La Luz De Jesus Gallery in Los Angeles as well as The Irvine Fine Arts Center in Irvine
California, Plug In Institute of Contemporary Art, Stanley Milner Public Library, Martha Street
Studio and Ace Art.
