"I should never have been convicted of anything more serious than running a cemetery without a license. They were just a bunch of worthless little queers and punks."

I was saddened to hear of the death of poster and toy artist Frank Kozik. Kozik designed posters for Nirvana, Sonic Youth, White Stripes, Butthole Surfers, Melvins, Foetus, Beastie Boys and hundreds of others.
“I was part of the trash world,” Kozik said in 2018. “I was a no-education loser person, and was definitely into hedonistic experiences. While I have an appreciation of fine art and I understand it, I was going to punk rock shows, not college nor museums. All of the stuff that really turned my crank was that stuff, and it was all stuff that we could kind of reproduce in our own lives; we could get a shitty car and drive around real fast, and we could hang out with fun people and party… and a lot of that stuff is really visually arresting. It’s all power imagery, and it really gets basic impulses across: sex, drugs, violence, weird shit.”

Oh shit. Frank Kozik committed suicide. ☹️
From:
The New York Times
The Life and Death of a ‘Punk Rock Warhol’
By Alex Vadukul
Published July 27, 2023
Updated July 28, 2023
At a gathering open to the public later that evening, Mr. Kozik’s fans would have the chance to mourn his death, but this ceremony was kept intimate. Sharon Kozik, his wife and business manager, watched while a friend read the eulogy Ms. Kozik had written.
“Frank built his life by making his own choices,” it said. “Tragically, for reasons I don’t know or understand, he decided to end his life on his own terms.”
Mr. Kozik died by suicide at his home on May 6.
“I know we all want reasons, but it’s not that simple,” Ms. Kozik said in an interview a week after the service. “There was Kozik, and then there was Frank.”
“When you look at his work,” she continued, “it’s funny, but it’s also dark and bold, and that’s how he was as a person. As far as his death, all I have to say is what was in my eulogy, which is that I don’t understand it. But I think it’s all right there in his work.”

Another OC painting with influence of Studio Ghibli scenery, this time I’ve also added a tribute to Frank Kozik, a graphic artist with extensive work on posters and album art for bands like Offspring and Queens of the Stone Age, and one of the pioneers of the designer toy art movement. His iconic creation, the smoking bunny with an attitude called LABBITS has appeared in countless iterations even in a collab with Marvel. I myself have collected a bunch of these critters and have them displayed proudly in my room ( you can see in the following slides here ). It was a somber moment when I heard of his untimely passing just last week, may he rest in peace in LABBITS Heaven.

A selection of some of my favorite mini vinyls, Dunny and Dunny Adjacent.
As hard as these can be to collect, I really adore the creativity on display.
Consistently charming, energetic, playful and horrifying. A great line for collectors looking to decorate with something a little quirky.
