I Heart Cool Stuff

I absolutely love Brent’s style– it’s not this cutesey stuff that I’m normally into, but he has these very well defined lines and such bold colors, I can’t help but love his intricate work. Not to mention, the man is too cool for words as I’ve had the pleasure of hanging out with him a couple of times this year. Well, a buddy of mine wanted his asthetically boring speakers to have a little more style… (more…)

MPH has posted my interview with Brent Nolasco on their site. This interview took place briefly before he had his solo show at MPH on June 13th. Check it out if you want to learn more about Brent and his background. [MyPlasticHeart]

Last Friday, I left you with a peak at Brent’s custom Kaws which he created for his Broken Hearts and Stolen Souls show at MPH. Above is a side view of the piece of work. I believe it’s the piece I took the most pictures of, I’m in love with it. I only wish I had $1900 to drop on it, it truly is magnificent. Please hit the jump to continue reading and to see more images of the show. (more…)

Today is Brent’s show over at MyPlasticHeart. I’ve been anticipating the arrival of this date since I first got wind of his upcoming show, and believe me, it’s been a while. I kept track of Brent’s flickr for sneak peeks and was falling in love with all the photos he released. I’ve been especially favoring what he did to Kathie Oliva’s Benny and Red Bird figures.  Well, if you thought those were great, hit the jump to see what I’ll be looking at in person tonight. (more…)

A great way to celebrate the end of finals, and yet another semester, is to stop by Brent Nolasco’s upcoming show at My Plastic Heart. The show will be “featuring an extensive line of customs and paintings showcasing his amazing detailed work.”[MPHBWNN]

Though I have  yet to see the pieces, Brent really is both an amazing guy and artist, and I am anticipating his first solo show. The man really deserves this opportunity and I hope that more people recognize his works and style. I will share more information when the date nears.

P.S. VinylPulse has the first peak of one of the pieces.

It’s been a week and I’m still catching up on NYCC. MPH had an incredibly busy booth with all their exclusives and signings. Among those exclusives were 5 sets of custom vivisect figures created by Brent Nolasco. I have yet to purchase any of the vivisect blindboxes, mainly because I’ve been purchasing a bunch of other stuff and preparing for NYCC, but how I wish I had the loot to purchase Brent’s customs. I think he did an amazing job, completely changed the look and feel of these already cool figures. As the label says though, they’re all sold out! If you haven’t checked out his stuff before, I highly recommend you head over to his flickr page (which also contains better images of the customs above) and maybe contact him about creating a custom for you.
