Yanko Tihov Branded Music World (USA) 97 x 94 cm Archival pigment-based print on 308g Hahnemuhle Cotton Rag paper Signed by the artist Edition of 30
Originally from Bulgaria, award-winning London-based painter and printmaker Yanko Tihov (born 1977) has a number of portraits and surreal works on urban life in his portfolio – but he is most known for his “passport maps” that are inspired by history, immigration and our changing world. He started his 'Branded World' series in 2018 as a natural continuation of his long interest in identity and branding using passport covers and famous toy brands.
Branded Music World (USA) represents 50 of the most popular American musicians, one from every US state, using Lego characters, with each figure wearing The Great State Seal.
Yanko is represented by his publisher and contemporary art dealer TAG Fine Arts in London.
