couple new teaser flyers for upcoming summer shows at Corey Helford. while you’re at it, check out our pics of the mohawked one’s recent Monster Within show at Giant Robot 2. good times were had by all… except you, because you weren’t there.

“Here’s some new images from our next two shows – Eric Joyner on 8/14 (1st solo in 2 years!) and Buff Monster on 9/4 (first exhibition since hitting Europe). Both of these artists appeal to the senses in a way that creates the kind of interaction between art and audience that allows each experience to bring something new to the viewer. Check out the new images and info attached and join us for two must-see Saturday night openings this summer”
