R Land"Viral" before viral was a thing, a town crier raising an anarchical alarm about Atlanta's shriveling soul, artist R.Land has been one of Atlanta's most distinctive and inventive creative visionaries whose wheat-pasted "Loss Cat" posters, Little Bunn Foo Foo stink-eyed rabbit, culture-jamming "Yuppie Ghetto" signs, wild-eyed critters and praying hands have popped up over the past three decades on Atlanta's streets with the regularity of chicken bones and tumble weaves. Land's visual lexicon has become as beloved, and as synonymous with Atlanta as the Big Chicken and Coke bottles. R.Land shows large format paintings and screen-print collections all over the country, in galleries and alternative spaces alike, and his "anonymous" street projects, public installations and commissioned murals continue to pop up coast to coast. The ubiquitous 'Loss Cat' has been carried by international retail chain Urban Outfitters and featured in the bestselling 'Found' coffee table book. His work appears in countless motion pictures and television ser les including 'The Change Up', 'Aqua Teen Hunger Force', and 'The Walking Dead' and his stylized illustrations can be seen in a variety of national publications and a score of other media. Once described by an art critic as having "the approach of Keith Haring, the enthusiasm of Disney and the vision of Finster", he ultimately defies categorization and garners a multi-generational fan base, with collectors and devotees as unique and varied as his unconventional style.Much of Land's inspiration comes from community and he focuses on projects that work in conjunction with the efforts of organizations ranging from natural heritage and historical preservation to children's education and just about anything involving city pride and stewardship. His art, including the iconic Pray for ATL, is now featured in the Atlanta History Center and the Georgia State Capital. Read More Read Less
