Giant Robot is proud to host a book signing with kozyndan in celebration of their new book, The Unknown Portraits.
Upon graduating from art school in Orange County, the artwork of kozyndan (a.k.a. Dan and Kozue Kitchens) was uncommonly refined. The duo's mix of precision European illustration in the style of Moebius and anime-influenced Superflat art from Japan, filtered through Southern California sunshine, immediately found a receptive audience and has been deepening in style and demand ever since.
The Unknown Portraits originated from a found photo album unearthed in a Venice Beach thrift shop. It inspired the husband-and-wife team to create imagined personae documenting the essence of the lost photographs. The clothbound hardcover is comprised solely of small, detailed graphite portraits--each piece capturing the surreal humor and irreverence that has become a trademark of kozyndan's distinctive style of artwork.
Illuminating select portraits are short stories inspired and imagined by a community of artist friends and writers including Pasha Malla, Mark "frosty" McNeill, Ryan Sands, Mariko Tamaki, Maggie MacDonald, Nick Flanagan, and Porous Walker.
The signing will take place on Saturday, November 28 from 6:30 - 8:30. For more information about the event, the artists, or Giant Robot, please contact:
