Dean Falsify Cook's--also known as "Sonar Fates"-- work addresses themes of the mystic and robotic through digital means. His illustrations have a particularly industrial aesthetic, bringing to mind video game concept art in all its fantastical precision. Cook's work often contains underlying narratives of technological theory and myth, lending a sense of mystery and voice to the work. Cook is masterful with his usage of the digital form.  

It’s not often we see any new pieces from Gorey, but when they pop up it was well worth the wait. These particular letters may have their own circuit board and fiber optic cables to keep the funk operating.

What’s the vagabond, animal mural painting artist Roa been up to lately? More of the same like painting, painting, and painting. Currently large, big, and huge walls in London. 

Joe Murtagh's work is dangerous, vibrant and sexy. The Liverpool-based illustrator combines the chic and retro with death, war and decay, casting heavy symbols in a brilliant and almost sickly colorful light. Murtagh takes skull and bones to another level, imbuing them with a bold and sexy attitude. Murtagh wields his craft with the deft hand of a graphic-designer-turned-illustrator, creating unique pieces we're very proud to show in our erotica section.  

Juxtapoz contributing editor, Joey Garfield, who recently edited our Beastie Boys issue, will be opening a solo show, The Sound of Never, at SILO Art Space in Chcago tomorrow night, May 18. The works in the show are both sculptural, photography-based, and collage. If you are in Chicago, go see our man on the scene!!!

In our May 2013 issue,  Juxtapoz was honored to have the chance to speak with enigmatic Norwegian artist, Odd Nerdrum. Writer David Molesky finished the piece and headed to France for a special exhibition and open house that the Nerdrum Museum held at the artist's home in Maisons-Laffitte. The event also served as a release for a new book from the Nerdrum Museum called, "Crime and Refuge."

San Francisco-based graphic artist Scott Hansen goes by the name ISO50 when he works on his photography and design works. And much of it has the look of this video. When he does said video as a musician, he is Tycho, the music producer who makes what we would call "summertime ambiance." This is the video for his new track, "Ascension," directed by Charles Bergquist. Enjoy the psychedelic flourishes.

Cheemy Boey, known to most as "Boey," found himself doodling on his cup in a coffee shop when he didn't have any paper to jot down his ideas. Pleased with the results he began sketching on cups, producing an awesome collection of Sharpie styofoam cup illustrations! They can now be purchased in his Etsy shop or through his website.

We are enjoying the work of Fernando Moraes and Roane Ferreira this morning. Working under the collective title, Imarginal, the duo work on a variety of surfaces from, cotton fabric, markers, and even magnifiers on paper, wood, or walls. Some of their pieces take over 3 months to make and measure over 3 feet wide...

Beijing-based photographer Ren Hang's images are uncensored, erotic, dirty, raw, somewhat deranged... you get the point. His work is censored in China but he has a growling list of international shows. He's pretty badass and doesn't seem to have a limit, and the images we chose are even toned down a bit compared to some of the others on his website which you should check out. They cast light on an otherwise shadowy Chinese underground youth culture, where lust and indulgence run as rampant as anywhere else in the world
