The Art of Tomer Hanuka

Fans of Aesop Rock may recognize Tomer Hanuka's style from the album Bazooka Tooth, but I think it's appropriate to draw attention to some of Hanuka's other work. While Bazooka Tooth looked awesome, the album art doesn't quite showcase the full capabilities of Hanuka.

Hanuka's other pieces push my emotions in two completely opposite directions, while the color palette used in each piece is simply beautiful, the violence in some stroke my testosterone levels in just the right way(that, and it reminds me of the classic Dreamcast game, Jet Set Radio). While heavily stylized, Hanuka also manages to capture human movement damn near perfect, giving each figure just the right amount of fluidity.

The piece above is just a small snippet of Hanuka's work, if you'd like to see more and buy a print or two, head over to his website here! Hit the jump for a few of my favorite pieces
