ComplexCon Returns November 18th and 19th With A Fresh Approach to Art Programming

Arts and culture festival ComplexCon had an undeniable reputation for leading the conversation surrounding pop culture and trends. Now, it makes its seventh annual return to the Long Beach Convention Center November 18th and 19th, this time with a reinvigorated approach to art. The comprehensive, expertly-curated festival takes a holistic approach to discussions about style, entertainment, and brands that would not be complete without art. With a refreshed dedication to inclusivity, ComplexCon presents an immersive and unforgettable weekend of style, sneakers, art, food, music, inspiration, and more. 

This year, CACTUS PLANT FLEA MARKET sits at the helm as the Artistic Director. The globally renowned artist and their namesake brand has become one of the most notable influences in culture, art, fashion and lifestyle today. As such, they are uniquely primed to lead the discussion of culture, with special attention to the art programming and overall aesthetic. 

As part of this exciting evolution for ComplexCon, a new wave of artists, makers, and creatives come together to round out the dialogue about arts and culture, ensuring fresh and innovative pieces at every turn. 

An undeniable art legend, FUTURA brings Knew Stand to ComplexCon. The graffiti legend who first gained popularity in the 70s worked adjacent to art for decades following his success, and has pivoted back into the art world in the last few years. With his unparalleled experience, he contributes to the conversation of culture, merging the past and present. 

Queer Kicks, curated by San Francisco-based Schlomer Haus Gallery and presented by Hijinx Arts, is a group exhibition using sneaker culture as a microcosm to explore the effects of personal identity on style and pop culture as a whole. In telling Queer stories at the heart of a major exploration of culture, Queer Kicks provides invaluable perspective, without which there could not be a comprehensive conversation. Twelve artists from across the LGBTQIA spectrum bring their views into the greater discussion of arts and culture, and who/what moves the needle between popular and unpopular, offering a more holistic picture of the world. 

Last year’s event was complete with a garden growing throughout, and this year ComplexCon keeps the flora theme intact. Muralist, artist, and designer Chris Pyrate returns for a third year, releasing a limited run of the next “Gardener” low sneaker colorway, not to mention the upcoming apparel collection available for purchase, and an activation that allows visitors to “pick their own flowers.”

The floor will be full of surprises, including an immersive collaboration between Leen and the Keith Haring Foundation. Kirk Catlin, a ComplexCon fan-favorite, returns with his distinct flash tattoos, boasting exclusive designs for the ComplexCon audience. Superchief Gallery will be presenting a booth installation from their exhibition earlier this year called GARBAGE FUTURISM POST-WASTE, including an exclusive limited T-shirt collab with BAER, and other artist collaboration t-shirts dropping throughout the course of the weekend. 

Bringing the creative energy to the floor, artist and storyteller Gregory Siff will be live painting on a 10x10 canvas, displaying his distinctive style, characterized by bold brushstrokes, vibrant colors, and unabashedly raw emotional depth. Literally Balling–artist Victor Solomon’s on-going exploration of the icons of basketball–celebrates the sport’s evolution and omnipresence. 

A ComplexCon icon and former Artistic Director, Takashi Murakami teams up with +44 to connect with fans via creativity and culture. Louis De Guzman, a visual artist & designer, brings new works as well, furthering the pop culture conversation. Inflatables from Jeron Braxton, a debut Rhymezlikedimez arcade machine, and Skateroom x Michelle Lamy collaboration with Juergen Teller round out the experience. 

With a balance of new and returning participants, like returning Uzumaki Gallery and doodles for the first time, the festival is sure to exceed expectations. Uuuntld and ET artist just begin to scratch the surface of what’s in store. 

ComplexCon would not be complete without awe-inspiring exclusive drops. This year, keep an eye out for Mermaidhair, Rello, Sushibaby, and several exclusive collaborations from CACTUS PLANT FLEA MARKET, with plenty more in store!

With art at the center of the cultural discourse, ComplexCon is a remarkable opportunity to view and experience the works leading us into the future.

Short Film Spotlight: Glucose by Jeron Braxton

Sugar was the engine of the slave trade that brought millions of Africans to America. Glucose is sweet, marketable, and easy to consume, but its surface satisfaction is a thin coating on the pain of many disenfranchised people.

Self-taught, Indianapolis-based animator Jeron Braxton took home the Short Film Jury Award for Animation at the 2018 Sundance Film Festival for what juror Chris Ware called “a mind-blowing and fresh language of imagery, avatar, and sound.” Check it out below.

The 15 edition of character design festival Pictoplasma is now over(although expect its NYC version to pop up towards the end of 2019.) So what scoops from the world of digital arts were the most intriguing to surface from our time in Berlin? And how exactly was that deliciously retro end credits scene of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse made?

You'll be surprised by the answer as it turns out the process was more digital than traditional; read on to find out the five biggest revelations of Pictoplasma 2019 including Jeron Braxton's forthcoming dating show parody and a movie based on the world's greatest cat artist.

How Into the Spider-Verse's post-credits scene was made using a mix of 2D and 3D...

At a special screening of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse we were treated to a Q&A with the film's production designer Justin K. Thompson (who you can see in the above photo in glasses.)

As he spoke during the closing credits, we and he paused to watch the inspired end-credits scene that has Spider-Man 2099 travel back in time into the 1967 universe of the original Spider-Man animated series.

Justin explained afterwards that the team scanned film stock from the cartoon after gaining permission to use the original footage, into which they then placed their model of Miguel 'Spider-Man 2099' O'Hara. That's when everyone realised they were using a 3D model within a 2D environment. Oops.

"The whole scene was made in three days, including the intro where you see Miguel's holo-assistant Lyla materialise on-screen," Justin told us.

"It was actually written by Phil (Lord) and Chris (Miller) while we were doing colour correction - and the film had to come out in a week," he revealed to amazed laughter.

"What did we do? Well, it would have actually been harder for us to get a 2D studio to draw the character for us, especially in that time frame. So we stuck with 2099 being in 3D and the team wrote software literally overnight to make him look and shaded like a two-dimensional character.

"It was kind of amazing that they made it look that way, and it's given me a lot of ideas on what to do next. Because I was like, 'Oh wait, we can actually make it look that shitty? We can make a 300 million dollar movie look that bad?' It's amazing," he joked with a glimmer of inspiration in his eyes.

...And how often the film was screen-tested.

Such last-minute changes weren't unique to the movie, and Justin also revealed how producers Lorde and Miller tested the film with audiences every two weeks using storyboards and whatever footage was available as production rumbled on, changing any lines and jokes that fell flat with viewers.
