Real Fake Art: A Gallery of China’s Copy Artists

China produces 70 percent of copies of famous masterpieces for export to North America and Europe. The fastest copy artists chug out 30 paintings a day. In his series Real Fake Art, photographer Michael Wolf took portraits of professional artisans next to the Lichtensteins, the Van Goghs and the many disproportionately giant Mona Lisas mass produced in this fascinating, multimillion industry, timeless classics and contemporary art blockbusters alike. A painter stands shyly by her Francis Bacon in an alley. A sharp looking gentleman holds a Gerald Richter canvas copy, similar to his Sonic Youth Daydream Nation cover. As a series, the project explores the interplay between the Chinese tradition of artists copying master works to develop their skills and the capitalist structure that makes it lucrative. Check out some of our favorite individuals in our gallery.

Producers Series #13: Martin Rushent

It seemed fitting for us to run Martin Rushent next in the Producers Series due to his untimely passing this week. For a lot of people he opened the door to electronic music by taking synths to Top Of The Pops and beyond, and was, in many eyes an out and out genius. Play loud.
