Scharf has spent fifty years doing versions of the same move — the kid from LA who landed in downtown New York at the end of the seventies, shared an apartment with Keith Haring, turned a back room into the Cosmic Cavern and put his blob-eyed cartoon creatures on everything from canvases to television sets. Karbombz is that instinct applied to the least promising surface available: rush-hour traffic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe book collects more than 600 of them across 220 pages, and the design is half the pleasure — it's built to look like an early-2000s desktop-publishing job, all Photoshop and QuarkXPress, with the layout language of car ads and Auto Trader classifieds. A monograph pretending to be a used-car listing, which is exactly the right joke for the subject.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Beyond the Streets","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58570809999695,"sku":null,"price":57.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2424\/8147\/files\/KennyScharfKarbombz_1.jpg?v=1787749747","url":"https:\/\/www.legrandj.eu\/products\/kenny-scharf-karbombz","provider":"Le Grand Jeu","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
