Mike Capp redoes Salvador Dalí in a Batman theme aptly timed around the release of the Dark Knight Rises. Capp inserts his own thematic expression onto the classic paintings to make some interesting comic book prints.
The abstract paintings by Dali are unmistakable, and completely open to individual interpretation. Capp takes the originals to a fantastically modern level with his Joker and Batman-inspired designs. The floating Bruce Wayne head and shocked Joker face are sure to be a delight to art fans and Batman fans alike, as the two merge in this piece. Available from $5-20, these prints are a great multimedia mix to hang on your wall.
