Mark Ryden (born January 20, 1963) is an American painter who is considered to be part of the Lowbrow (or pop surrealist) art movement.[1] He was dubbed "the god-father of pop surrealism" by Interview magazine.[2] In 2015, Artnet named Ryden and his wife, painter Marion Peck, the king and queen of Pop Surrealism.[3]
Ryden has been described as a "relentless kitsch meister working in the tradition of Bosch, Dalí, and Little Golden Books"[4] and a master of Lowbrow style.[1] His work has been described as having a pop-surrealist style that contains a nightmarish quality.[5] His inspirations include "old children’s books, interesting product packages, toys, photographs, medical models, skeletons, shells, minerals, and religious statues."[6] His album and single artwork for musicians includes Aerosmith's "Love in an Elevator" (1989), Michael Jackson's Dangerous (1991), and Red Hot Chili Peppers' One Hot Minute (1995).
