Pop Pop Fizz Fizz

At the HOW Conference, I was lucky enough to attend a presentation by Charles S. Anderson of:
1. Charles Anderson Design
2. CSA Images
3. Pop Ink (in conjunction with French Paper)

I'm a huge fan of the work that CSA has produced. The Pop Ink work is especially interesting/pretty/funny/wicked/twisted/etc. You could fill in almost any adjective. It's great stuff. I'm also a big fan because Mr. Anderson has accomplished what I dream of doing one day. Namely, establishing a kick-a$$ design studio and creating fabulous art to be licensed and sold.

From the Pop Ink site:
Pop Ink merges low art and high design into an infinite visual universe of saccharine sweet, slightly disturbing yet strangely compelling art and artifacts for a (post) modern world. Pop Ink products have been featured in numerous publications including: In Style, Dwell, The New York Times, ReadyMade, Martha Stewart, O Home, and Communication Arts, among others.

Pop Ink products are the result of over two decades of work by Charles S. Anderson Design and are produced in collaboration with French Paper and Laurie DeMartino Design. Established in 1989, Charles S. Anderson Design's work is a continuous evolution inspired by the highs and lows of art and popular culture. They have produced award-winning art, identity, packaging, and product design for a diverse list of clients.

Characterized by its visual impact and humor, Charles S. Anderson Design's work has been influential in the design industry both nationally and internationally, and has been exhibited in museums worldwide including: The Museum of Modern Art, New York's permanent collection; The Smithsonian Institution's Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum, New York; The Institute of Contemporary Arts, London; The Nouveau Salon des Cent-Centre Pompidou, Paris; and The Ginza Graphic Gallery, Tokyo.
