Greg Santos

For Frisbee 2006, Greg Santos combines a familiar bumper sticker with an iconic portrait of Picasso to comment on competition and brand loyalty in the contemporary art world. On countless windows and truck tailgates across the country, the adolescent half of the comic strip duo Calvin and Hobbes is seen pissing on everything from rival car manufacturers to Osama bin Laden. In Santos' work, a mischievous Pablo replaces Calvin and takes aim at a sampling of modern art stars. The art historical tables are turned as the elder rebels against the youngsters. In Santos' "Pissing Contest"(2006), the undisputed father of modern art marks his territory on the streets around Art Basil Miami Beach.
