Pixelated Pop Culture Paintings by Adam Lister

Adam Lister is a New York-based artist who has gained worldwide recognition for his innovative approach to painting. His unique style involves using geometric shapes and a pixelated style to reinterpret iconic imagery from pop culture, including movies, TV shows, and cartoons. Inspired by the 8-bit graphics of classic video games, Adam’s work has a distinct aesthetic that sets it apart from traditional artists.

His process involves breaking down recognizable characters and scenes into simple shapes and colors. This approach allows him to create dynamic compositions that capture the essence of each subject while also offering a fresh perspective on familiar imagery. Adam’s use of hard edges and bright colors gives his paintings an energy that draws viewers in, inviting them to explore the details of each piece.
