Seripop
Chloe and Yannick are Seripop, a silk screen artists duo. They began their careers creating band posters and more recently have moved to art prints and large installations. Last spring, I helped them prepare an install at Secret Project Robot. Later that year, they were part of the “Street and Studio: From Basquiat to Seripop” at the Kunsthalle Wien in Austria. Their art like Basquiat’s is beautifully raw and combines pop and punk sensibilities. I love everything they do. Many terrific prints are for sale at www.seripop.com.
