Emerging from Northern California’s punk scene through handmade zines, posters, and ephemera, Johanson expanded his practice to encompass paintings, drawings, sculptures, and immersive installations. His signature aesthetic combines raw humor, cartoon-like imagery, and reclaimed materials gathered from urban spaces, evolving over time toward simplified abstract forms. Today, his work is held in major museum collections, including the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), the Whitney Museum of American Art, and the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e--\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eSOBU is proud to feature fine art prints created by our friends at Paulson Fontaine Press, a woman- and minority-owned publisher based in Berkeley, California.
