Why do we like Louie Cordero?
His most recent piece is a roughly six-foot sculpture of on zombie head. Super-stylized and beautifully painted, it's the perfect undead acid-trip, a 3D cartoon out of a sixties brain-eater pulp comic that you can't stop looking at , can't stop wanting it ,can't stop loving it. And then when you're done looking at his zombie bust, head over to this page from the Jonathan Levine Gallery to see more of his work. His paintings are fantastic as well....
