Seen: Doktor A’s Freak Mechanique

 FM-4_500

Doktor A’s Freak Mechanique opened this past Saturday (11.14) @ Lift in Detroit. While Doktor A wasn’t able to make the trip across the pond, he joined the considerable crowd at the opening via web video link.  We were also MIA, but thankfully the kind folks at Lift sent along these pics of the evening.

Dok is a master of meshing found objects with vinyl toys as seen by his stupendous sculptures in this show.  His artistry and technical excellence give tangible form to the world of Retropolis which he brings into clearer focus with each piece and each show.
Freak Mechanique also features several paintings and drawings. Check out all the great work over at the show preview page.

Capping off the show was the prototype of the new Doktor A 5″ MAD*L.  The figure will be released simultaneously  On November 21st at Lift’s DesignerCon booth as well as in their online store.  Pics of the final production piece shortly.  In addition to the new production MAD*L, Lift is planning on bringing a small selection of the Freak Mechanique pieces with them to DCon for SoCal fans to enjoy.

Doktor A’s Freak Mechanique runs through December 9th.
