Alexander Heir 'WARRR2k∞//WORK 2014-2017'
'WARRR2k∞//WORK 2014-2017' showcases the singular vision of Brooklyn-based artist and musician Alexander Heir, capturing a potent slice of his output during a crucial four-year period. Known for shaping the visual identity of the contemporary underground punk and metal scenes, Heir’s work fuses the raw intensity of DIY aesthetics with an encyclopedic command of transgressive symbolism.
This book compiles Heir’s graphic designs, personal art, and ephemera created between 2014 and 2017—spanning flyers, record covers, apparel, and more. His bold, often grotesque illustrations—somewhere between Japanese ukiyo-e prints and Russian prison tattoos—embody a visceral energy that has graced projects by The Mob, Martin Rev, Warthog, John Carpenter, and many others. A founding force behind the clothing label Death/Traitors and frontman of industrial punk band L.O.T.I.O.N., Heir continues to channel subversion into tangible, confrontational art. 'WARRR2k∞//WORK 2014-2017' not only reflects Heir’s prolific engagement with underground music and counterculture but also his deep visual language of morbidity, taboo, and rebellion. This collection is both a document of an era and a manifesto for those still driven by the feral spirit of independent art.
