Coop finished high school, skipped art school, and arrived in Los Angeles in the late 80’s where he immediately got to work subverting the mainstream. Chances are good you’ve seen some manifestation of his merchandising juggernaut: smoking devils, devil-girls, hotrods, space aliens or monsters on posters, t-shirts, hats, stickers, stationery sets, skate boards, toys, shot glasses, Zippo lighters, and so much more.
He’s done roughly 100 posters, including rock posters for Nirvana, Soundgarden, The Sex Pistols and many others, and album cover art for everyone from the Monomen to the Ramones.
The first edition of The Devil’s Advocate, his full-color book was released to an immediate sellout in November 2001, and went immediately into continuous reprint. Coop’s second book, THE BIG FAT ONE, a 1008-page sketchbook, was released in October 2002. According to Juxtapoz Magazine, Coop’s name is “now more recognizable to modern youth than that of Rembrandt.“
He cites Robert Williams, R. Crumb and Eric Stanton as some of his favorites and great influences, in addition to Big Daddy Roth, Irving Klaw, Wally Wood, Gil Elvgren, and a host of other degenerates.
Cleveland’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame houses two of Coop’s posters in its permanent collection. He was also commissioned to customize an Escalade and design a run of limited edition gambling chips for the Hard Rock Casino in Las Vegas.
Coop’s first solo exhibition was in Los Angeles in 1993, and since then his artwork has been shown throughout the world.

Garage Magazine #19 with Hotrod Empire, Inc. Buchreview!

Hot Rod Empire, Inc. Review in Garage Magazine #19 (USA)
"The combination of hot rods, kustoms, and pin up models is sure a fine winner - afteral you are holding an issue of Garage in your hands, aren´t you? Well imaging a 128 page coffee table book of nothing but page ater page of photosof that subject matter and each and every one is suitable for framing. We couldonly imagine the volume of photosthat Dirk Behlau had to omit to shrink his selection down to fit inside this book. What we wouldn´t give to see the worldthrough Dirk´s lens just for one day. www.hotrodempire.de
Thanks a lot to Jesse James (West Coast Choppers) for putting my book into Garage Magazine #19!

Going to Mexico: Leningrad Cowboys Racing vs The Pixeleye - La Carrera Panamericana 2009
pixeleye, 21:34h
Morgen ist es endlich soweit! Ich fliege mit dem Manager der Leningrad Cowboys von Frankfurt nach Mexico, wo uns bereits die anderen Crewmember des Leningrad Cowboys Racing Teams erwarten.
Die Cowboys haben mich als offiziellen Fotografen für die legendäre La Carrera Panamericana Ralley angeheuert, die der Chef der Truppe Sakke (+Co-Pilot) mit seiner 1953 Corvette bestreiten wird.
Der Mexiko Trip dauert bis zum 4. November - nach dem Rennen werden wir noch dem Tag der Toten beiwohnen. Ich bin gespannt was alles passieren wird....

Zudem werde ich täglich Infos, Videos und Fotos hochladen!
