    Shepard Fairey- OBEY War By Numbers VSE OG Colorway HPM Stencil Shepard Fairey x Ernesto Yerena Montejano x Hecho Con Ganas x Obey

    War By Numbers VSE- OG Colorway Variable Stencil Edition Acrylic Artwork on Hand Deckled Fine Art Paper by Street Artists Shepard Fairey x Ernesto Yerena Montejano x Hecho Con Ganas x Obey. 2022 War By Numbers VSE- OG Colorway 20x26.5 inches. Signed & Numbered Ultra Rare Edition of 14. Variable Stencil Edition (VSE) on Paper. Signed by Shepard Fairey, Hecho Con Ganas publishing chop in the lower-left corner. "Created during the Iraq war, but the quest for peace requires perpetual vigilance, and the current invasion of Ukraine is a reminder of the brutality of war. The “War By Numbers” image is a statement about not becoming desensitized by war to the extent that it becomes as banal as a paint-by-numbers image. The “Peace Elephant” is an appeal to our sense of Karma and harmony with the world around us." - Shepard Fairey A profound intersection of artistry and activism emerges in "War By Numbers VSE- OG Colorway," an emblematic piece presented by the collaborative brilliance of Shepard Fairey, Ernesto Yerena Montejano, Hecho Con Ganas, and Obey. Showcased on meticulously hand-deckled fine art paper, this 20x26.5 inch artwork not only exemplifies the prowess of its creators but also delves deeply into the social and political fabric of contemporary global scenarios. Dated 2022, this piece holds the distinction of being an ultra-rare Variable Stencil Edition (VSE) on paper, with only 14 such editions in existence, each one thoughtfully signed and numbered. Notably, the presence of the Hecho Con Ganas publishing chop in the lower-left corner augments its authenticity and intrinsic value. While the artwork itself is a marvel of color interplay and design, its underlying message is both timeless and urgent. Shepard Fairey's own words elucidate the motivation behind its creation, highlighting its inception during the Iraq war. Yet, its resonance extends beyond that particular conflict. The piece emerges as an enduring reminder of the costs of warfare, particularly with the poignant backdrop of the recent Ukraine invasion. Fairey astutely draws attention to the dangers of becoming inured to the horrors of conflict, suggesting that society must never allow war's devastation to become as commonplace and mundane as a paint-by-numbers image. This sentiment is further emphasized by the inclusion of the "Peace Elephant," symbolizing the universal aspiration for harmony and an appeal to humanity's collective conscience. In the vast realm of pop art, street art, and graffiti, "War By Numbers" stands as a testament to art's ability to transcend aesthetic appeal, challenging viewers to confront and engage with the world's most pressing issues.

    Bask Wolf Like Me Original Acrylic Painting on Wood by Bask

    Wolf Like Me Original Painting Acrylic on Mixed-Media Reclaimed Wood Panel by Bask Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. “The esthetic of my work is similar to the Detroit landscape. The re-purposed nature of my art plays off of panels, wood, signs, that once were proudly displayed. But over the years they stopped serving their intended purpose and thrown out. The inspiration behind the work I made for this show was Detroit's strengths, struggles, and landscape. I took the opportunity to move to Detroit fourteen years ago, but for a number of reasons beyond my control, my stay lasted only 4 years. However, that was long enough for the city to have a profound impact on my work as well as my consciousness towards social and political issues. And even though I haven't called Detroit home in 9 years, the impression it stamped on me is something I hope I never lose. And it was this appreciation for the influence that DETROIT has had on me, that inspired the work I made for the show.” -Bask

Characterized by its use of iconic imagery intertwined with gritty urban landscapes, it stands as a vivid commentary on consumer culture and societal decay.

In this particular piece, the recognizable figure of Minnie Mouse is manipulated in an unconventional graffiti stencil style, emphasizing the essence of street art in its rawest form. The "Period 12" refers to Minnie's untimely Menstruation and the painting number. Gillette infuses this piece with a paradoxical blend of innocence and bleakness. This contrast not only critiques our media-saturated society but also invites viewers to question the impact of corporations on our shared cultural consciousness. With its unfiltered portrayal of the tension between popular culture and reality, the "Minnie Period 12 Hand Stencil Original Canvas" by Jeff Gillette stands as a powerful exemplar of modern pop and street art.

    Diaspora Tolu Original Painting Enamel and Acrylic on Plexiglass by Askew One Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2015 Signed Original Painting Artwork Size 20x14 Custom Framed "Back in April/May of 2014, I spent around 6 weeks based in Los Angeles making these paintings for my solo show at Known Gallery. I was living and working above the TSL store, trying my best to make enough work to fill the space which was a pretty daunting task. The pieces themselves are a combination of head portraits painted in what I would say are my signature style and then also a series of smaller abstract works that signify the idea of migration through the Pacific, both in a historic and recent sense. The model for the portraits was my friend Sereima aka Stelly, who’s Sydney-based and of Fijian descent. To me, she really represents the changing face of the Pacific in many ways. Following on from a really successful show in Sydney, ‘The Evolving Face’ I wanted to move away from the mugshot poses of the previous body and bring more attitude and exuberance and Sereima was perfect because she is the absolute embodiment of those things." - Askew One Born in 1979 in Auckland, New Zealand, Elliot O'Donnell is a self-taught artist who is widely recognized in the street art community as Askew One.

  • Interdimensional Test Print Unique Acrylic Silkscreen Print by Dalek- James Marshall

    Dalek- James Marshall Interdimensional Test Print Unique Acrylic Silkscreen Print by Dalek- James Marshall

    Interdimensional Test Print Unique Hand Painted Acrylic Silkscreen Print by Dalek- James Marshall Color Screen Print on Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. TP Test Print 2023 Signed & Tagged Hand Painted Silkscreen Test Print Acrylic HPM Embellished One-of-a-Kind Artwork Size 20x26 Exploring the Layers of 'Interdimensional Test Print' by Dalek - James Marshall James Marshall, known in the art world as Dalek presents 'Interdimensional Test Print,' a unique hand-painted acrylic silkscreen print that captures the vibrant essence of pop street art. The 2023 artwork, sized at 20x26 inches, is not just a visual spectacle but also an embodiment of the experimental nature inherent in creating screen prints as a TP (test print); it bears the marks of an artist at work, the trial stage where colors and compositions are explored before the final edition is run. This test print is tagged and signed by Dalek, bearing the hallmarks of his distinctive style - bold colors, geometric shapes, and a unique sense of depth. The term 'HPM' denotes 'Hand Painted Multiple,' indicating that while the print may be part of a series, each piece is uniquely embellished by the artist, making it one-of-a-kind. The combination of silkscreen printing and hand painting blurs the lines between mass-produced art and unique creations, a hallmark of street pop art and graffiti artwork that often plays with such dichotomies. Dalek's Artistic Process and the Significance of Test Prints Dalek's 'Interdimensional Test Print' provides insight into the artist's process. The test print serves as a creative playground for the artist, a space to experiment with color overlays, composition adjustments, and new techniques. This stage is crucial as it allows the artist to see how different colors interact on the chosen paper, how the overlays create new hues, and how the various elements of the design come together. It's a behind-the-scenes look at the meticulous process involved in screen printing, where each layer must be carefully considered and executed. Using acrylic paint to embellish the print adds a textured, handcrafted dimension to the work, distinguishing it from the more uniform, mechanical process of screen printing. This interplay of precision and spontaneity often characterizes street pop art and graffiti artwork, where the raw, immediate energy of street art meets the calculated design of pop art. 'Interdimensional Test Print' in the Context of Street Pop Art and Graffiti In the broader context of street pop art and graffiti, Dalek's 'Interdimensional Test Print' stands out for its vivid exploration of form and color. Street pop art often takes cues from the bustling urban environment and its cacophony of signs, symbols, and colors. In this piece, Dalek synthesizes these elements into a cohesive whole that is both chaotic and controlled, a reflection of the complex urban landscapes from which street art emerges. The print showcases Dalek's evolution from his earlier graffiti-based work towards a style that incorporates street art and fine art elements. His work has always been characterized by an engagement with the visual lexicon of graffiti—its bold lines, vivid colors, and recurring motifs. Yet, in 'Interdimensional Test Print,' there is a noticeable shift towards a more abstract and complex composition that suggests a deeper engagement with the formal qualities of art-making. This piece not only represents Dalek's artistic journey but also the journey of street pop art itself. The genre has moved from the fringes of the art world to occupy a more central position, where it is recognized for its innovation, technical skill, and capacity to communicate complex themes. 'Interdimensional Test Print,' with its hand-painted layers and meticulous silkscreen technique, is emblematic of this shift, encapsulating the essence of street pop art as a continually evolving form and defying easy categorization. Collectors and admirers of Dalek's work recognize the intrinsic value of a piece like 'Interdimensional Test Print.' As a one-of-a-kind artwork, it holds aesthetic appeal and an intimate connection to the artist's hand and creative spirit. It embodies the dynamism of street pop art and graffiti artwork, a field that continues to push boundaries and challenge our perceptions of art and creativity.

The Role of Acrylic Paint in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork

Acrylic paint has become a cornerstone medium in creating Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork, known for its versatility, vibrant color palette, and quick drying time. This synthetic medium debuted in the art world in the mid-20th century and has since revolutionized how artists approach their craft, particularly in the fast-paced environment of street art. Its formulation allows for a wide range of techniques, from thick, textured brushstrokes to smooth, flat finishes, making it a favored choice among artists working within the dynamic spheres of pop art, street art, and graffiti. The appeal of acrylics in creating Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork lies in its adaptability. Whether applied to an urban alley's brick walls or a studio piece's canvas, acrylic paint can withstand the elements, making it particularly suitable for outdoor art. It bonds to many different surfaces, a quality that graffiti artists capitalize on when selecting unconventional canvases. Furthermore, the quick-drying nature of acrylics is ideal for the swift execution required in street art, allowing artists to layer colors without long waits, perfect for the often guerrilla-style application of graffiti.

Acrylics in the Evolution of Street Art Aesthetics

The evolution of street art aesthetics owes much to the properties of acrylic paints. The medium's ability to produce bold, opaque colors has been instrumental in the vibrant visuals associated with Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork. Acrylics allow for a crispness of line and form often seen in pop art and graffiti's stylized, impactful imagery. Artists such as Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat utilized acrylics to create their iconic works, which continue to influence the visual language of street art today. In addition to their visual impact, acrylic paints have expanded street art's lifespan. While temporary by nature, the durability of acrylics under various environmental conditions has helped preserve many pieces beyond their expected existence. This durability ensures that the often socially and politically charged messages conveyed through Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork endure, allowing these visual statements to reach wider audiences over time.

Technical Advancements and Accessibility of Acrylic Paint

Technical advancements in acrylic paint formulations have increased accessibility and usage in Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork. Today, artists can choose from various specialized acrylics, including those with extended drying times or explicitly formulated for outdoor use. These advancements have democratized street art, providing artists with affordable and readily available materials. The use of acrylics in street art has also been pivotal in the art form's migration from the streets to the gallery. The same paints used for a mural in an alleyway are also used to create works that hang in private collections and museums, bridging the gap between public and private art. This transition has played a crucial role in the mainstream acceptance and legitimization of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork as a significant art movement. In contemporary art, acrylic paints are an indispensable tool for artists. Their impact on the aesthetic development and preservation of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork is undeniable. Acrylics have facilitated the vibrant expression of street artists and ensured that such expressions remain a visible and vital part of the urban landscape. Through their use, street artists challenge traditional boundaries and continue redefining what is possible in art.
