Blum meticulously crafts his materials into scenes inspired by the nonstop news blitz and renders them with his brand of humor and satire. The works resemble sketches of cultural pop trends and political tenor sweeping into our daily lives in view of the constant social media connection. Blum started incorporating found materials into his artwork twenty years ago. He is shaped by decades of working in media and design, including projects with Apple and Levis as well as film and music videos working with musicians like U2 and Billy Joel. His insight in those fields has enhanced his storytelling and imagery allowing him to draw attention to every day topics. Blum’s works are included in the permanent collections of the New York Museum of Modern Art (MOMA). NY, NY; Smithsonian, Washington DC; and the Legion of Honor Achenbach Foundation for Graphic Arts, SF, CA.
