American Chinese Luke Chueh’s Cute but Brute Art
American Chinese designer – artist Luke Chueh has an excellent and collectible style of painting, combining wit with visual simplicity – key to creating images with impact.
“Employing minimal color schemes, simple animal characters, and a seemingly endless list of ill-fated situations, Chueh stylistically balances cute with brute, walking the fine line between comedy and tragedy.”
I particularly like his quirky take on both modern, consumerist and personal cultures, such as with his interests in Japanese robots, and the self-referential banana portrait. It’s great looking art which people can relate to.
