THE CHARLES E. COOPER STUDIO.




What Mozart, Elvis and Chet Atkins are to Music Gustav Klimt is to Art.
The hidden genius of Norman Rockwell.



  Atman's Big Bang was by far the biggest explosion
of artistic creativity the world has ever seen
.

 If the Italian Renaissance was a firecracker of artistic creativity then this Atman’s Big Bang was like an Atomic Bomb.
It happened simultaneously in art, music, dance and even sports. It was by far the biggest explosion ... for only one reason:

 Technology finally stole “creativity” from the wealthy intellectuals and gave it to the common-man, PUBLIC. 

Technology thus gave the Public control of artistic-creativity... with the stories and art in magazines, and with recordings it gave the Public control of music; Jazz, Soul, Gospel, Blues and Rock and Roll; and with “Newsreels,” and especially with TV, the Public got control of creativity in dance with their Charleston, Jitterbug, Jive, Samba.
The story of Atman’s Big Bang is the story of Atman Art- the art/entertainment that entertained the Public. In the visual field of art, print, books and magazines, most of the story of Atman’s Big Bang is the story of CEC, the Charles E. Cooper Studio
In the first half of the 20th Century the Charles E Cooper Studio was to the world of advertising/illustration what  Brazil, Argentina, Germany, Italy and England combined are today to the world of soccer.
