Artist’s website
Chicago-based artist Dzine (born Carlos Rolon) is a painter and the owner of an experimental record label that works with world renowned DJs and producers such as DJ Cam, Gotan Project, and Guidance Recordings.

Jim Rosenquist is a true American original and his book ought to be read by anyone who wants to understand the last half-century of his country’s visual culture, high, low, and in between.” –Robert Hughes, amazon
