As part of his recent Strange Future exhibition in New York City, Tristan Eaton unveiled his new Let’s Bang sculpture as a prototype. Based on his recently released black light print of the same name, the large-format piece (36”) blends sex and steel, long legs and an old-school revolver. Beyond the obvious word okay, the piece has a seductive retro vibe, perhaps an eye towards seemingly simpler times.
While he’s primarily focused on his original paintings and epic murals, it’s good to see Eaton revising the three-dimensional forms that earned him a large following back when designer toys were this weird, wonderful medium. Based on his response to IG comments, it sounds like smaller-sized versions of Let’s Bang might be in our future as well. From the New Money Dunny in metal, to this high-end statue, the end of 2019 has been good for collectors looking for to collect new 3D work from Tristan Eaton.
The piece looks awesome and so good that Tristan is doing sculpture again . Is this a limited or open edition? Would you know what’s the estimate price?
I am not sure on the release details. Will try to find out
