Donald Baechler

Donald Baechler is a contemporary American artist commonly sited as being part of the pop art movement. Whilst his paintings do have a delightful playfuness about them, I personally do not think “pop art” when I think Donald Baechler.

Yes, his characters and ideas are slightly cartoony in character but I do not see main stream comic book figures appearing in his works. Baechler collects objects when he travels and the resuse them in his work.

His idea of a deliciously mouth watering cornet ice cream really works - it shouldn`t but it does - he becomes immediately more serious with some wonderfully accomplished sculptures and flower paintings.

You can see Donald Baechler`s work in many of the major American Museum`s including:
