Don Fritz work has evolved from an early interest in Pop Art and icons of American pop culture expressed through popular imagery and cultural artifacts. He explores visual symbol for what it represents both literally and metaphorically.
He uses humor to juxtapose the underlying presence and psychological consequence of the menacing cultural narratives intrinsic in children's toys and books. Power is trivialized and becomes symbolically accessible in stylized toys such as guns, jet planes, and rocket cars where the violence is hidden under their glazed surfaces.
