FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Author Biography 1976, Sean Äaberg was born and raised in Oakland, California into a bohemian family. In 1988 at age 12 he discovered zines, the Church of the Subgenius and Punk all at the same time which gave his world of Pee-Wees Playhouse, Dr. Demento and MAD Magazine direction and drive. Äaberg has viewed his visual art as a part of a series of cultural systems and tries to incorporate all levels of culture with his work. In 2000 Äaberg married artist Katie Äaberg, and they started Goblinko as an umbrella for their projects. In 2011 Äaberg decided to give big zines a go again and PORK Magazine was born. The magazine covered Rock&Roll, Weirdo Art and Bad Ideas, going for a big-tent approach instead of targeting little niche groups. PORK influenced a couple generations of low-brow artists and entrepreneurs who copied the Goblinko business model. As the internet changed the way people consume media, Äaberg decided that making games would better fit where he and his audience were at. In September, 2019 Äaberg had a stroke and is now recovering. Review "Sean Äaberg follows in the lowbrow tradition of the late great Ed Roth with his own brand of uncanny psyched-out caricatures. Äabergs cast of characters are equal parts grotesque and goofy, which he renders with meticulous detail - warts, ooze, rotten teeth and all." - Juxtapoz Magazine "I love the Underground Comix meets Day-Glo posters vibe." - Tony DiTerlizzi "Sean Äaberg the great Punk Artist Freak is killing it with his game! Seans work ethic, developed aesthetic, and obvious love for fantasy illustration is further developed by his DIY roots and disciplined power! Power that is only derived from years of being in the punk community, where your credibility is gained from direct action and a committed love to what you are doing! Especially when no one cares. Sean is an inspiration of persistence to me!" - Skinner "The first time I saw Sean Aabergs artwork was for my friends band Personal and the Pizzas. Soon after I got a copy of his magazine PORK. Its that edgy style and color that just kinda pops out at you. Sean has a great vision as an artist not only in his graphic style but his finger is constantly on the pulse of the pop culture trash we all love and hold so dearly to our hearts. I personally cant wait to see all his art under one roof in the book that in my opinion is way overdue." - Dirty Donny Gillies Review Quote "Sean Description for Sales People Hardbound, coffee-table book of Sean Aabergs artwork.
