It's time to get just a little bit weird! We're excited to be presenting a new series of paintings by Baltimore-based artist Stephen Blickenstaff — since the early '80s Stephen has been laying down a steady stream of wonderful art with a cool '60s monster culture vibe (including the iconic cover of The Cramps' "Bad Music for Bad People") and we're stoked to have 20 new paintings of his to show. Infestations & Splattered Mutations New Works by Stephen Blickenstaff February 20-March 14, 2021 The exhibit will be opens Saturday, Feb. 20, 10am-6pm, but we are being cautious and will not be holding an opening reception. Sign up for our previews email list at previews.rotofugi.com to receive an email when works are available to purchase online. The exhibit continues through March 14th and the gallery is open for viewing at Rotofugi, 2780 N. Lincoln Ave., Chicago, 10am-6pm daily, or view online at gallery.rotofugi.com. About the Artist Stephen Blickenstaff has been creating monster themed graphics and illustrations for publication since the early '80s. Inspired by '60s monster culture, Steve’s work is often described as a twisted blend of horror and comedy. His work has appeared on album covers, T-shirts and posters for bands and personalities such The Cramps, Los Straitjackets, Southern Culture On The Skids, The Fleshtones, They Might Be Giants, and Dr. Demento. Recently, Steve collaborated with his friend and fellow artist John Detrich to create the FUNNY FIENDS sticker series released by Sidekick Labs, and his work has appeared in publications such as "The Book of Weirdo: A Retrospective of R. Crumb's Legendary Humor Comics Anthology" and Les Barany's "Carnivora the Dark Art of Automobiles." Steve is also personally involved in the music scene — he currently plays theremin with the instrumental surf bands the Atomic Mosquitos and Killers From Space. @stephen_blickenstaff #art #lowbrowart #lowbrow #surrealism #newcontemporary #popart #weirdart #contemporaryart #painting #strangeart #characterdesign #popsurrealist #popsurrealism #popsurrealismart #popsurrealismo #chicagogallery #horrorart #horrorartist #horrorartwork #horrorartists (at Rotofugi Designer Toy Store & Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLDPYVwndnE/?igshid=1kz3rqeqen8i4
We sold these back in October but just had one returned from a failed international delivery....one grey available now at rotofugi.com 😃 Repost from @rotofugi • 🐰🖕🐰🖕 The title on this figure is, appropriately enough, “A Vulgar Statement.” This amazing sofubi from our friend mr clement, made in Japan in collaboration with Tomenosuke Shoten, does seem to capture one of the prevailing sentiments of 2020 pretty well! 😂 Figure stands 10 inches tall and features transparent red vinyl that shows through on the feet. Just 20 pieces of each color made, and we have white and grey in stock. Available now at rotofugi.com in very limited quantities, plus one of each available in store only at Rotofugi, 2780 N. Lincoln Ave., Chicago (open 10am-6pm daily). @i_am_mr_clement #arttoys #arttoy #designertoy #toys #toystagram #vinyltoys #toyart #toysforsale #collectibles #vinylfigure #toyphotography #toycollector #instatoys #designertoys #mrclement #lapin #🖕 (at Rotofugi Designer Toy Store & Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKE_8nHHIPi/?igshid=1j4wefnq6xwg1

We are beyond pleased to be welcoming Indiana-based artist Brett Manning back to our gallery walls for an exhibit opening on January 16. We first showed Brett’s work in 2016 and she’s been very busy since then building a following for her otherworldly art and the “spooky things” that she is compelled to make. The Endless Gloaming New Works by Brett Manning January 16-February 14, 2021 The gallery is open for viewing at Rotofugi, 2780 N. Lincoln Ave., Chicago, 10am-6pm daily, or view online at gallery.rotofugi.com. Sign up for our gallery previews email list at previews.rotofugi.com to receive an email when works are available to purchase online! Artist’s Statement My friends! The truth is out! It has never been more evident than now! Clutch those blankets close to your chest and hear me…NO! Hear us! That warm woven security you have draped around your soft body is not quite the protection you’ve been led on to believe – it is more. It is your ritual garb. The veil is not parting, oh no! She quickly decays around us! Crumbling to bits, heralding the return of the Old Ones…the ancient and forgotten deities climb from their hidden holes within caves and mountains, they emerge with ferocity and grace from the great mysterious hills and mounds of grass and stone which scatter our world. They are born from every plume of dancing smoke, man-made or otherwise. They have been watching and listening patiently to our cries, but for how long you might wonder? However long it has taken our collected tears to create an ocean…their return not only approaches, but it is here, now! Make way! Leave cake and milk by your front door, ring bells and light candles! Sing and dance if you feel the call! Do not fear! Celebration and respect is all they demand for their Glorious Reprise so don your magickal garb and join in on the festivities! The time of renewal is now, friends! Daytime greets the Night, old flows into new, our worlds collide! Embrace the Endless Gloaming, dearest friends, the glittering, all encompassing spectrum of The Everything warmly envelops us! — Brett Manning, 2021 @brettmanningart #chicagogallery #art #magick #magickal (at Rotofugi Designer Toy Store & Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJzhexonWd1/?igshid=1ol3yg7sb9b5o
Opening Saturday the 19th!

Now that’s what I call winter cheer! #sadandhorribleshow #fuzzyfriends (at Rotofugi Designer Toy Store & Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIoTnFinpgg/?igshid=cai9q052u7xu
Restocked, just in time for the holidays...everyone needs a little Keith Haring! ❤️💚💛 Available now at Rotofugi, 2780 N. Lincoln Ave., Chicago, open 10am-6pm daily or online at rotofugi.com where we have free US shipping for blind box orders of $30 or more! -- Keith Haring was an iconic pop artist and graffiti artist inspired by the New York City street culture of the 1980s. Inspired by the originality and spontaneity of spray-paint graffiti Haring began producing chalk drawings on blank NYC Subway advertisement boards. As his career progressed his art spread to other mediums and he rose to the top of the art world with mass appeal. Haring continued to create public art with the intention of making art accessible to all, which resonates with the mission of Kidrobot. Haring was involved in numerous charities and causes and hosted drawing workshops for kids around the world. After being diagnosed with AIDS in 1988, he founded the Keith Haring Foundation. His later works leading up to his death in 1990 contained political and societal statements that encapsulate the era. His art has since become iconic and remains relevant to this day. -- @kidrobot @keith_haring @keithharingfoundation #dunnys #designervinyl #toystore #toycollection #toyart #toystagram #toycollector #designertoys #dunny #arttoy #vinyltoys #vinyltoy #designertoy #arttoys #toyphotography #kidrobot #kidrobotdunny #blindbox #blindboxes #keithharing (at Rotofugi Designer Toy Store & Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIn_O-hHYsD/?igshid=caxl1xkepxaf

The Sad & Horrible Show New Works by Sad Salesman & Horrible Adorables December 19, 2020-January 10, 2021 As we were planning the end of our exhibit calendar for this year we couldn’t have known just how insane 2020 would be, but we’re ending the year on something Sad and Horrible regardless, very apropos. But there is literally nothing sad or horrible about the works of Sad Salesman and Horrible Adorables — both make some of the cutest things on the planet and we can’t wait to show you what they’ve been up to! The exhibit will be open for viewing and sales beginning Saturday, December 19, 10am-6pm, but we are being cautious and will not be holding an opening reception. There will be many pieces in the exhibit that are cash and carry, so it’ll be a great show for a little gift shopping! Can’t make it to the gallery? Sign up for our gallery previews email list at http://previews.rotofugi.com to receive an email when works are available to purchase online, often before the exhibit officially opens! The gallery is open for viewing at Rotofugi, 2780 N. Lincoln Ave., Chicago, 10am-6pm daily, or view online at gallery.rotofugi.com About the Artists Sad Salesman is New York-based artist Eric Althin…he believes there is a little sad salesman in everyone. He created a tragic but tenacious fellow, who ended up becoming his mascot/logo/website. He has always been a character lover and for most of his life, a toy collector. As a kid it was He-man and Star Wars toys, then it became designer toys and sofubi. He started sculpting his own toy designs and fell in love with bringing new characters into the world to make your inner sad salesman smile :) Horrible Adorables are the creations of Jordan Elise Perme and Christopher Lees, a wife and husband team from Cleveland. They met at the Cleveland Institute of Art where Jordan graduated with her BFA in Fiber & Material Studies, and Chris was pursuing training in fine arts after completing his BS in Mechanical Engineering. @sad_salesman @horrible_adorables @horbsadorbs #chicagogallery #hifructose #juxtapoz #art #artgallery #designertoys #sculpture #softsculpture #resintoy (at Rotofugi Designer Toy Store & Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIZeSu3HxTm/?igshid=ql41jyef6llw

DeerCat is by Amber Aki Huang, a Visual Development Artist for Dreamworks TV and was produced by Strangecat Toys.

Have you checkout out our current exhibit with Daniel Danger yet? —— Half Curtained and Breathless New Works by Daniel Danger November 21-December 13, 2020 Rotofugi, 2780 N. Lincoln Ave., Chicago, 10am-6pm daily, or view online at gallery.rotofugi.com About the Artist Daniel Danger is an illustrator and print-maker living in the woods of Massachusetts. The son of a middle school art teacher and a professional potter, he was probably never going to be an accountant. His explanation of his own work is borderline nonsense and involves overlapping timelines, references to SIERRA point n' click adventure games, number stations in the desert oscillating whispered converations, the death of ghosts at the hands of foliage, giant trauma shadow beings born of kidnapped children that drip wolf shadows, and 1920s childrens books. He is the lost boy-king of Ghost Island, and a broken brain'd hoarder of vintage music gear, old toy ambulances, and bad hardcore records. Him and his wife have a dog named after noted character actor Toby Huss. Daniel plays or has played in the following bands: Caspermask, A City Safe From Sea, The Saddest Landscape, IDNOCLIP, Squall, XcrimedogX, & Some Stranger. @tinymediaempire #chicagogallery #hifructose #juxtapoz #illustration #illustrationartists #illustrationart #illustrations #screenprinting #screenprint #screenprinted #art #artgallery (at Rotofugi Designer Toy Store & Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIJfGdJnEBZ/?igshid=1nwtbnpxsfw25
