Pop Artist Sean Danconia to launch new-brand, SupaPop, at Licensing Expo 2015
LOS ANGELES, June 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Sean Danconia, Disney ®Artist and Anime Expo® Guest of Honor, debuts "SupaPop" - his newest brand universe at Licensing Expo 2015 (Mandalay Bay Convention Center) in Las Vegas, June 9-11th. Joseph Watson Collection to host a red-carpet Animation Premiere event on June 10th.
Artist / designer Sean Danconia's dynamic take on the comic & animation worlds has made him a household name among Pop-Art aficionados. Recent exhibitions of his work include Disney's Wonderground Gallery (Disneyland® Resort), Mouche Gallery, Hero Complex and Sotheby's.
The SupaPop universe to debut at Licensing Expo 2015 is Danconia's latest hyper-inventive imagination explosion. Inspired and set in the multi-pop-cultural city of San Francisco, Danconia's universe masterfully superglues Gaming, Comics, Anime, Cinema and Music into the ultimate licensing launch. SupaPop functions as both a Creative Lab for his latest inventions and an umbrella brand kicking-out new characters, collections and baby-brands.
Aimed at a wide demographic - from tweens, teens and tastemakers of all ages - SupaPop rolls-out a range of categories starting with apparel, accessories, home furnishings, toys/collectibles, gaming and apps. Having opened last year's Anime Expo 2014 with his original animation feature, Danconia's SupaPop is already garnering attention from top creative studios catering to a host of media platforms. SupaPop's premier game offering will feature "My Starling" in a futuristic-Dim Sum adventure, in collaboration with 5 Elements Entertainment.
The SupaPop story universe unfolds as a Time-Capsule-Toy city, created and sealed in Sixties San Francisco... set to POP! open in 2016. Inside is the future - of our past - a retro futurist rainbow youthquake! SupaPop's irreverent character set and eye-popping visuals are inspired by 60's Animation, Design, Pop Art & Music, along with a collage of cultural kitsch from the "flower-power" capital of the world.
As with Danconia's previous brand collections and characters--developed for Disneyland's Vault 28, Saks 5th Avenue, Fred Segal, Hot Topic and PacSun--SupaPop targets hip, cutting edge retailers. Plans for SupaPop retail capsules are also in the works, building on the success of Danconia's "Artist in Residence" Pop-Up Shop at Downtown Disney® District.
About: SupaPop is the brainchild of Sean Danconia, father of the Pop-Fusion art movement, released in collaboration with new media creative group - ENJIN FACTORY - based in Beverly Hills, California.
