SHAG (b. 1962) The Golf Widow Acrylic on panel 24 x 48 inches (61.0 x 121.9 cm) Signed lower right: SHAG PROVENANCE: Private collection, New Jersey. EXHIBITED: M Modern Gallery, Palm Springs, California, "A Gracious Oasis: Paintings from Palm Springs," January 29-March 6, 2005. The artist SHAG, the pseudonym of Josh Agle, is celebrated for his distinctive style, characterized by a retro aesthetic, saturated color palettes, and a playful yet sophisticated take on mid-20th-century modernism. His work combines elements of pop art, cartooning, and vintage illustration, creating a visual language that's both instantly recognizable and rooted in cultural nostalgia. SHAG's unique style offers a highly stylized, glamour-infused perspective on American culture, blending irony, nostalgia, and a sense of theatricality that resonates with contemporary viewers.
