______________

Matt Gondek, an American artist born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in 1982, has carved a distinctive niche for himself as a pioneering figure in the deconstructive pop art movement. A self taught artist with a background in digital illustration and graphic design, Gondek's creative philosophy is rooted in a punk rock spirit, celebrating rebellion and destruction through the visceral reinterpretation of beloved pop culture icons. His work, characterized by bold lines and a vivid, "pop" color palette (including a signature "Pink Cocaine" hue), features well known cartoon characters such as Mickey Mouse, Bugs Bunny, and Homer Simpson appearing to melt, explode, or fall apart in a chaotic yet balanced composition.

Gondek views these characters as "modern day gods" in contemporary culture, and his art serves as a critical engagement with power and societal norms, exposing the underlying aggression and flaws within society with a dark humor. He fluidly translates his unique vision across multiple mediums, including large scale murals, paintings, sculptures, and digital art, including NFTs and limited edition designer toys. Based in Los Angeles, Gondek has achieved global recognition with sold out exhibitions in major cities like New York, Paris, Tokyo, and Hong Kong. He has collaborated with notable celebrities like musicians J Balvin and The Weeknd and has a sharp business sense, branching his art practice into various commercial avenues while remaining true to his distinct, explosive style. Gondek is also the host of the "Clean Break" podcast, where he discusses the art world and business with other influential artists.

___________________

Matt Gondek is an American painter, muralist and digital sculptor who has built a global following by exploding the icons of childhood. Born in Pittsburgh in 1982, he grew up on comic books, cartoons and the raw energy of nineties punk, influences that still pulse through his bright, anarchic palettes. After studying film and working as a freelance illustrator for the music industry, Gondek opened a boutique store in his hometown, but retail quickly gave way to fine art when he discovered that painting offered a louder voice.

He calls his style “Deconstructive Pop Art”: clean vector lines, fluorescent acrylics and bold black contours that fracture familiar characters Mickey Mouse, Homer Simpson, Donald Duck into shards, drips and melting grins. Each piece is executed entirely by hand, without stencils or projections, allowing spontaneous brushwork to echo the looseness of street art while maintaining the polish of gallery painting. Recent series such as Fight Club pair spiked baseball bats with cartoon heads, questioning who holds power in contemporary culture.

Gondek’s studio practice spans canvas, sculpture and digital media. He is currently completing a 104 panel polyptych titled Total Recall, in which every small painting interlocks to form one continuous image, a nod to his love of epic narratives and video-game level design. Murals rise in Los Angeles, Tokyo, Hong Kong and Paris, while celebrity collectors including J Balvin and The Weeknd champion his work.

Beyond the easel, Gondek hosts the Clean Break podcast, discussing art, business and the punk ethos that drives him to tear down idols while celebrating their colour. Whether casting a bronze sculpture or releasing an NFT, he approaches each project with the same credo: create loudly, question everything, and leave the audience smiling through the wreckage.
