Gary Baseman, creator of the animated television show Teacher's Pet, talks about art that combines fine art with toys
Few artists keep their street-level cool amid widespread exposure as easily as has Gary Baseman. Though his whimsical style has become immediately identifiable thanks to mainstream projects like the much-missed ABC-TV cartoon Teacher's Pet and numerous corporate campaigns, it still retains an underground patina that keeps his gallery shows and limited-edition designer toys feeling endlessly pertinent. "How do you do it, Gary?" thus seems an ideal query with which to cap Baseman's Rollins College lecture, in which he'll address the subject "Pervasive Art" (the same topic he discussed in a 2004 appearance at the Orange County Regional History Center). Attendees will also have the chance to win original art that'll be awarded the following evening during a product signing at Winter Park's überhip Überbot store. Look for copies of Baseman's book, Dumb Luck, and some of his new adult playthings to arrive in time for the store visit. Just like him, this guy's "pervasive" art really gets around.(Staff)
