SAK Superman Watch!
Steven A. Kaufmann Former assistant to renowned Pop Artist Andy Warhol, Steve Kaufman...aka SAK...is considered one of the most important and talked-about Pop artists or our time. He had his first one-man show at the age of 8, received a scholarship to The Parson's School of Design at age 14, and by age 16, participated in his first group show at the Whitney Museum in New York. Kaufman's first one-man show was at a bank in the Bronx. The paintings were donated to the Jewish Holocaust Museum of Art in Brooklyn. In 1972, Kaufman was chosen along with nine other students from NYC to participate in a cultural exchange between Japan and the U.S., and was soon awarded a scholarship at Parson's School of Design for fine art and design. Kaufman later enrolled in the School of Visual Arts in New York and soon met Andy Warhol. Kaufman became Warhol's assistant at The Factory - Warhol's famed fine art publishing studio - Warhol was to have a profound influence over the artist's later work. The impact of celebrity on contemporary culture intrigues Kaufman, thus famed faces of art, music and film are often the subject of his artwork. Kaufman seeks to discover society's common denominators in his artwork - the elements and individuals who generate an immediate response from the viewer. Kaufman is an artistic journalist commenting on history, both past and present. His dynamic style often combines images of the world's icons with visual tapestries woven out of landmarks or other related references to their celebrity. Kaufman delivers his perspectives in highly refined fine art serigraphs, allowing for greater fluidity and definition in his images. Kaufman returns to each silk-screened canvas to add over-painting embellishments, making each serigraph in the edition a unique work of art. Kaufman's artwork reflects his changing thoughts and perspectives during the creative process.Steve Kaufman has always reflected his concern for the world around him in his work, benefiting such causes as AIDS, gang violence, homelessness, Literacy Volunteers of New York, Nevada Women's Fund and Meals On Wheels. Instead of hiring actors or other illuminati as Warhol did, Kaufman hires gang members from the streets of LA to work in his studio as assistants. Up for bidding is the rarer Warner Brothers Limited Edition Timepiece presented by WB Studio, known as the SAK Superman. This individually numbered Limited Edition timepiece captures the image of DC Comics' Superman, as interpreted by artist Steven A. Kaufmann. The Box itself is already a killer! It seems to be of acrylic surface with very vibrant colour of Superman and the art somehow does remind one of andy warhol earlier influences! Leather Band timepiece is just as stunning! All mint and never been displayed. This watch is numbered 1354/2500 pieces worldwide. Needs a new battery. Plastics cover for front and back still intact!
