Jiri Geller (b. 1970) is a Finnish pop artist and sculptor based in Helsinki. He is known for his refined sculptures exploring the phenomenon of contemporary pop culture. His accomplished works present frigid irony and sharp critique by questioning the prevalent, contemporary iconophilia. Geller has exhibited around Nordic countries in various group and solo shows as well as in various international exhibitions globally. http://www.thephotophore.com/jiri-geller/

His subjects come from popular culture and also real life as the piece “PAY ON TIME MOTHERFUCKER” where a cut-of hand of the Mickey Mouse was a message to a gallerist who was slow in payments. (Viite: JUXTAPOZ May 2011 N124. SIVU: 26.)

Geller often uses controversial elements in his work such as skulls and neon colors together.
