Much of MadGods inspiration is derived from the remnants of past culture. These veins of originality are no longer with us in the form of authentic style and rebellion that existed in the formative years of youth culture, music, skateboarding and the independent artist. Most only recognize the patterns left in the wake of original influence.

MadGods has always taken a fondness to the interpretation of our own subcultures by foreign voyeurs, more specifically, the methodical breakdown of western music and skateboarding imagery and styles by Japanese Otaku cool hunters at the turn of the millennium. Using this fondness as a filter of sorts, we touch on realms of thought that we once believed were slowly becoming extinct with a new generation of youth that don’t remember a world before the internet. Using a familiar aesthetic, we perfect the art of dressing sheep in wolf’s clothing.

ReCap: Sex and Death

November 4th, 2009

img_7071Sex and Death is the theme of the group art show put on at THE 5TH GALLERY here in Austin, of which MadGods was a co-sponsor of. The opening party was back on the 16th, but there will a closing party on November 13th and the show is up daily if you are in the downtown area. Here are some pics from the opening.

img_7081The 5Th Gallery is barely 200 sq. feet so a lot of the party happens on the sidewalk.
