Parra is best known for his curved post-Pop imagery, highly saturated colors, vibrant hand-drawn letters and worlds inhabited by hybrid, surreal characters. Celebrated by galleries and championed by an underground following, Parra has quickly become a respected and eclectic artist worldwide. His latest showing sees the artist return to Los Angeles’ HVW8 Art + Design Gallery with “The How Original Show,” an exhibition consisting of all new work in the form of drawings and paintings, revealing the process of sketch to final piece. Each work is an original, a departure from his well known numbered silkscreen editions. “The How Original Show” will remain open to the public through November 6, 2011.
