The New Brow film about contemporary underground art became available on Prescreen today.
What is Prescreen?
From their website: “Prescreen is a curated social discovery video-on-demand platform designed to promote and showcase premium content.” Basically it is an online movie service for independent films. I discovered it a few months and found it a place to “rent” hard to find movie for only $2 or $4 depending on the movie.
Sorry to report that Prescreen has closed its doors.
What is the New Brow film?
A feature film presented by Humble Pictures in association with the Shooting Gallery.
First hand accounts from the artists, galleries and collectors who started and continue the new american art movement.
Pop Surrealism and Low Brow is a wide spread populist art movement with origins in Low Brow art, underground comix, punk music, hotrod street culture, Kustum culture, Street Art, Graffiti, Graphic Design, Tattoo, Surf Culture, Tiki Culture and other California sub-cultures.
This is not a current version of Modern Pop Art. This a new movement, a new thinking in the art world. These are the artists that will inspire a new generation.
Just as artists from the expressionist, Ab-Ex and Pop Art periods their importance was unrealised until many years after they were “discovered”. Most of the public has already seen these new artists through their other work, ad campaigns, tshirts, album covers and graphic design.
Watch as this new movement rises from the streets and into the galleries.
Since this movie has been out a lot of folks have been looking for a way to see it and now thanks to Prescreen that is easy.
