The Superstroke Art Movement consist out of the following members according to Wikipedia: Greg Simmonds, Diiezel, Mr. Sputnik, John Zaverdino, May Wentworth, Conrad Bo, Jaco Erwee.
The manifesto for Superstroke written in 2008 is as follows:
1. Paintings and sculptures should be executed using expressive even violent brushstrokes on at least some part of the picture or surface.
2. Should a photograph be used for a figurative painting, the objection should not be Photorealism, but Expressionism.
3. If mediums such as pen, pencil, etc are used, the pen and pencil strokes must at least be overly expressive for it to be considered a Superstroke picture.
4. Paintings can be executed in both the abstract and figurative.
5. Subject matters such as Africa, light, dark, life and death are encouraged.
6. Collage, Stencil and Calligraphy may be used for impact.
7. The Super Expressive Brush, Pen etc. strokes can be used on any object with a surface, and this makes sculpture possible in Superstroke.
8. The concept, Art for the sake of art, does not apply in Superstroke. In Superstroke it is art for the sake of Superstroke, as the artist must always strive for paintings rich in texture, or excessive brush or pencil strokes.
