about the film:
A feature film presented by Humble Pictures in association with the Shooting Gallery.
First hand accounts from the artists, galleries and collectors who started and continue the new american art movement.
Pop Surrealism or Outsider Art is a wide spread populist art movement with origins in Low Brow art, underground comix, punk music, hotrod street culture, Kustum culture, Street Art, Graffiti, Graphic Design, Tattoo, Surf Culture, Tiki Culture and other California sub-cultures.
This is not a current version of Modern Pop Art. This a new movement, a new thinking in the art world. These are the artists that will inspire a new generation.
Just as artists from the expressionist, Ab-Ex and Pop Art periods their importance was unrealised until many years after they were "discovered". Most of the public has already seen these artists through their other work, ad campaigns, tshirts, album covers and graphic design.
Watch as this new movement rises from the streets and into the galleries.
