THE PRINT

In 2013 Dick Frizzell personally oversaw the release of a series of open edition art prints featuring his most iconic works. The original "Mickey to Tiki tu Meke" has become one of NZ's most popular art prints, humourously combining a pop art sensibility with Maori iconography. This gallery quality art print has been produced on medium weight art stock (satin finish) using lightfast pigment based inks resulting in a sharp, vivid image with a high degree of colour accuracy. Can be purchased framed or unframed.

THE ARTIST

Dick Frizzell is one of New Zealand's most popular and iconic pop artists. His work has been characterised by an endlessly inventive range of subject matter and styles: faux-naive New Zealand landscapes, figurative still-life, comic book characters and witty parodies of modernist abstraction. His taste is conveniently broad and he has a penchant for fondly remembered and well-worn cliches. His work also portrays a sense of exuberance, ironic humour and baby-boomer nostalgia. An anti-traditionalist, Frizzell often makes a deliberate effort to mix up the categories of high and low art - poking fun at the intellectualisation of 'high art' and the existential angst of much New Zealand painting in the art culture of his youth.
