Detailed Description
Lowbrow art, emerging in the late 20th century, revels in visual rebellion. Marrying the renegade spirit of underground comics, street art, and pop culture, it challenges the sanctified halls of fine art with bold satire and fantastical imagery. Its works pulse with graphic intensity, infused by subcultures and punk ethos, bringing to life a wonderland layered with irony and social critique. With roots entwined in California counterculture, it persists as a steadfast arena for artists who delight in breaking rules and conventions.
