ne of the most talked-about rising stars in the pop art world is Steve Kaufman [aka SAK], whose painting subjects range from street life and graffiti to Super heroes and World Champion athletes. |  |
||
| Something of a child prodigly, SAK had his first "one child" show at the age of 8, received a summer scholarship to The Parsons School of Design at age 14, and by the age of 16 had particopated in the first group show at the Whitney Museum. | ||||
| His early 20´s found him enrolled at the Shool of Visual Arts and working at the Factory for Andy Warhol, who was to have a profound influence over the young artist`s later work. | The Warner Bros. Studio Galleries commisioned Mr. Kaufman to create a series of his widely popular "Warholesque" limited edition portraits of Batman, Superman, the Looney Tunes characters, and his latest success, a special signed limited edition of Olympic Gold Medailist Muhammed Ali (aka Cassius clay], to commemorate the 1996 Centennial Olympics in Atlanta. | |||
| SAK has always reflected his concern for the world around him in this work, benefiting such causes as AIDS, gang violence, homelessness and Meals on Wheels. | ||||
