Detroit Lewis 25 Dollar Paintings

Description

Excerpted from the website:

Twenty-Five dollar paintings is a underground art revolution featuring outsider art, political cartoons and commentary by controversial South Dakota artist Detroit Lewis (aka Scott L. Ehrisman). Lewis has developed into one of the most high-profile artists currently working in the Midwest. He is an acknowledged leader among the more cutting-edge artists within the local art community.

Perhaps most significantly, Lewis has a common belief that satirical humor can be used as a means for exploding the cultural myths and commonly held social preconceptions of our society. Lewis believes that it is his duty as an artist and as a socially responsible human being to serve as a cultural iconoclast.

Though his art might superficially suggest otherwise, Lewis is in fact an idealist.
