I do love these guys.
Not enough people work text and insanely funny topics and ideas into their work like these two. But I gues if too many people did that, these two wouldn't be so popular. Forget it, let me shut up.

Oh they are so very good. We met him at a show and he gave me some keychains and a sticker. Such a charming boy!

Gotta admit i did not like their work at first sight but seeing it over the past year in different venues has definitely changed my perception of what they are trying to get at concerning their criticism of popular culture and their myths. It really does take a trained eye to catch and "get" what they do. It's brilliant.

I get the stuff they do, and then I don't get it. Are they on the graffiti tip or are they doing some sort of take on contemporary popluar culture with a twist of humour?
The postering thing makes sense as they do the large scale posters and such, but the smaller stuff is more serious and I don't know if that works on the street, or maybe that's just it...their point.

Oh my gawd!!! I loved their show. It seems like Kenn sakurai does the sensitive hits that really took a shot at my heart. I couldn't believe how beautiful they were worded, almost like poetry. Anyways enough gushing, just see the show if you're in Los Angeles.

Their websites are very nicely designed and simple. I wish more sites had navigation as easy as that. Anyways, their show was absolutely hilarious and laid out beautifully with the sensitive hits really hitting a chord. Beautiful sentiments galore. A must see if you're in downtown Los Angeles.

ESM and Poplab would seem to share website designers.

Kenn Sakurai and Dave O'Regan are probably my favorite thing about Vancouver BC. Worth going to the show just for their stuff!

I just came back from the gallery. Pretty neat stuff. They had some good lemon drops for patron enjoyment. I liked the cereal stuff with some old-school and discontinued titles. The small, postcard-ish stuff was funny, laugh-out-loud funny for some of them. I'm glad it was free though, with free street parking outside. I think I'd've been disappointed if I had gotten my hopes up. Entertaining, not enlightening. Not an evening in itself, but a whimsy of a start.
