Deadbeat Hero - #WeAreSweatermen

The Sweatermen characters make a comeback in Deadbeat Hero's solo show - #WeAreSweatermen - this April at Improper Walls.

Rob Perez aka Deadbeat Hero is an American artist who has recently called Vienna home. His Sweatermen characters made their first appearance back in 2012 and served as a social commentary on the smartphone culture. He continued to develop his extremely comfortable and warm looking characters, covered up anonymously in colourful sweaters and ski masks as they deepen into various social media apps. Deadbeat Hero’s new Sweatermen series aims to highlight our need to be constantly connected.
In 2013 he unveiled his Sweatermen collection. Soon a well-received solo show titled “The Sweatermen” was opened at the Silkworm Gallery in San Antonio, Texas. His soloshow at Improper Walls is the tweak point of his outstanding contributions to various group shows shown at and by Improper Walls since 2014.
The interactive exhibition at Improper Walls will include the real time photo print opportunity Hashtagprinter. Visitors are invited to take a selfie with the Sweatermen and post it to Instagram or Twitter. If posted with the right hashtag, the photo will be printed on the spot. With music from Sounds of Blackness Co-founder Thiago Rosa.
