Arkiv’s “Escapist” opens Friday at TAG
Toy Art Gallery is proud to present “Escapist”, a solo show from renowned Indonesian artist Arkiv Vilmansa. The exhibit will feature new painted works, sculptures, limited edition prints and a special preview release and signing of the new figure “The Sumo”.
“Over the past several years, artist Arkiv Vilmansa’s iconic character ‘Arkiv Instant’ has made the artist a household name within the lowbrow art and toy culture scene. Arkiv looks to develop his signature image, while debuting new characters and continuing to explore his unique style of combining the surreal and theatrical with playful and whimsical caricature.”
Opening reception is Friday, Aug 5th 2011 from 7pm-11pm. Arkiv will be in attendance with a live painting session. A signing session will follow on Saturday, Aug. 6th starting at 2pm.
The Show Preview will be available on Thursday, Aug. 4th. The exhibit runs from Aug. 5th to Aug. 26th, 2011.

Toy Art Gallery is proud to present SOFUBI GODFATHERS, featuring Paul Kaiju, Mark Nagata, Blobpus, LASH, and Bob Conge/Plaseebo! Each of these artists are trailblazers in the Kaiju-influenced soft vinyl world, and we’re extremely excited to have their signature creations all together under one roof.
SOFUBI GODFATHERS features special one-of-a-kind hand-painted customs of LASH’s OLLIE and SLUDGE DEMON, Paul Kaiju’s SALAMANDER JOE and BOSS CARRION, Mark Nagata’s KAIJU EYEZON, Blobpus’ DOKUGON, and Bob Conge/Plaseebo’s various monster amalgamations, just to name a few.
These five are some of the most original and exciting artists in the Kaiju scene, so don’t miss out on seeing their work in person before it disappears!
SOFUBI GODFATHERS opens on Friday, July 8th from 7-11 PM with an opening reception, and runs until July 29th.
