Poking fun of pop culture and politics, Eric Yahnker‘s sense of humor is beyond reproach. While the artist’s execution may seem lighthearted, Yahnker’s message takes a sledgehammer–or, in some cases, a wrecking ball–to the pillars of modern day iconography.
His work is painfully aware; as the issues that he addresses in his pieces range from Putin’s invasion of Crimea to Woody Allen’s pseudo incestuous relationship with his then adopted daughter, now long-time wife, Soon-Yi Previn.
