Don't Listen To Them Original Hand-Painted Multiple (HPM) on Wood Cradled Panel ready to hang by Denial Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. Canadian artist Denial and Australian-born Ben Frost have joined forces in a bold exhibition of new work that explores the boundaries of appropriation, in confronting re-imaginings of our current dystopian society. Self-­confessed ‘visual thieves’, both artists have had a long history of stealing and subverting the cultural icons that the advertising and consumerist world has thrust upon us, to create new and pertinent interpretations that are as confronting as they are humorous. Denial’s art is strongly political and social since the artist takes specific positions against issues, such as capitalism, consumer culture, and advertisements. More importantly, the artist is aware of his choices and motivations: “I like to think of myself as activist pop art. How I relate with cartoons and graphics is a lot easier than I do with photo-realistic stuff" Another aspect of Denial's work is humor. His work is satirical, which, by definition, means that it uses humor as a confronting mechanism.

This Is America PP Archival Print by Denial- Daniel Bombardier Limited Edition Print on 290gsm Moab Entrada Fine Art Paper Pop Artist Modern Artwork. PP Printers Proof 2020 Signed & Marked PP Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x18 Archival Pigment Fine Art The Provocative Narrative of Denial's "This Is America" "This Is America" by Denial, the pseudonym of artist Daniel Bombardier, is a profound example of street pop art's capacity to engage with contemporary social issues. Released as a Printer's Proof (PP) in 2020, this limited edition print on 290gsm Moab Entrada fine art paper utilizes archival pigment to ensure lasting quality. Measuring 18x18 inches, each piece in this series is signed and marked by the artist, signifying its authenticity and exclusivity as part of a limited edition run. The artwork's stark, graphic quality and poignant textual message combine to form a piece that is both a visual statement and a commentary on the nation's state. Denial's work is known for its bold aesthetic that employs pop art and graffiti elements to convey messages about consumerism, politics, and social justice. "This Is America" is no exception, with its graphic depiction that plays on themes of identity, representation, and the American experience. The artwork's title, a question loaded with social and political undertones, invites viewers to ponder the reality of America's promise versus its actuality, especially concerning racial and social dynamics. Denial's Artistic Influence and Technique In the pop art tradition, Denial utilizes bright, arresting colors and stark contrasts to draw the viewer's eye and provoke a reaction. His technique is reminiscent of screen printing pioneers but with a modern twist that often incorporates elements of street art, such as stenciling and spray paint. The use of 290gsm Moab Entrada fine art paper in "This Is America" speaks to Denial's commitment to quality; the paper's substantial weight and smooth texture make it an ideal substrate for the archival pigment, ensuring that the colors and details of the print remain vibrant over time. The Printer's Proof designation of the print is significant within the art collecting community. Traditionally, Printer's Proofs are considered rare and valuable due to their limited number and the artist's direct involvement in the printing process. Denial's decision to sign and mark each print as PP sets it apart from standard editions, creating a deeper connection between the artist and the work and adding to the print's collectability. Street Pop Art and Its Role in Cultural Discourse Street pop art, as a hybrid of pop art's focus on mass culture and street art's raw, public-facing expression, has become an influential force in cultural discourse. Artists like Denial leverage the visibility and accessibility of street art to bring critical social issues to the forefront of public consciousness. "This Is America" serves as a visual catalyst for discussions about race, equality, and the American dream, effectively using the visual language of pop art to engage a broad audience in these conversations. The piece's direct and aggressive style is characteristic of street pop art's ability to challenge perceptions and inspire dialogue. Denial's work, particularly in this print, harnesses the power of graphic representation to address complex societal issues, making it a poignant example of how art can reflect and influence the times. In sum, "This Is America" by Denial is more than just a piece of modern artwork; it is a statement, a question, and a reflection of the times. Its place in the continuum of street pop art and graffiti artwork is solidified by its provocative imagery and the discussions it sparks. As a PP archival print, it stands as a testament to the enduring power of visual art to comment on and engage with the pressing issues of the day.

Enjoy Mixed Media On Cradled Wood Panel Original Painting by Denial Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. Ready To hang. "Recently this piece was not allowed into a show I had wanted it to be in. In Dubai, they have strict rules on obscenity and vulgarity. I had been wanting to paint this piece for a long time and was looking for just the right image to use as a base in it. I finally found it amongst the bowels of the internet. This painting is a visualization of an amazing Bill Hicks joke from his stand-up routine. In his stand up Bill goes into great detail about the evils of advertising when left unchallenged and unchecked. He imagines and describes an ad in the not-so-distant future that one day may exist. This painting is of that ad. Bill Hicks was a fucking genius and I only hope I did his work the justice it deserves. He was so inspirational in forming my current mindset, a true artist and rebel. I take inspiration from different artists in different ways. I like to visualize things like songs or speech or comedy and play with the different elements I come up with. I have a very playful mind." - Denial Denial has evolved as one the most prominent figures of contemporary pop artists, who nonetheless, continue to stay relevant and is interested in generating thought-provoking commentary.

Louis Vuitton Designer Drugs PP Printers Proof Skateboard Art Deck by Denial- Daniel Bombardier Limited Edition Archival Print on Wood Skateboard Deck by Street Artwork Graffiti Artist. PP Printers Proof 2018 Marked PP Limited Edition Signed COA Skateboard Artwork Size 8x31 Skateboard Art Deck With Famous Louis Vuitton Logo With Stylized Pill Elements. The Louis Vuitton Designer Drugs PP Printers Proof Skateboard Art Deck stands as an iconic piece that reflects the dynamic interplay between luxury branding and the audacious spirit of street art. This masterpiece, conceptualized and brought to life by Denial, the artistic pseudonym for Canadian visionary Daniel Bombardier, offers a deep dive into the contemporary societal landscape, making it a focal point of discussion in both the pop art and street art communities. This 2018 creation is distinguished not only by its artistic flair but also by its exclusivity, being a part of a limited edition set of just 50, bearing the 'PP Printers Proof' insignia. Such proofs are preliminary versions of a final artwork, hinting at the artist's journey to the final rendition and ensuring the highest quality of the final output. Each piece from this collection is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity, signed by Denial, cementing its authenticity and value. With dimensions of 8x31, this skateboard deck serves as more than just a canvas—it's an emblem of the raw and unapologetic energy of street culture. The artwork predominantly features the globally recognized Louis Vuitton logo, but Denial's interpretation adds a twist. The iconic logo is intertwined with stylized pill elements, providing a critique on society's infatuation with luxury and the lengths some might go to achieve a state of transient opulence. The pill, a symbol of transient relief, perhaps suggests the ephemeral nature of materialistic luxury. An intersection of fashion, art, and social commentary, the Louis Vuitton Designer Drugs Skateboard Art Deck by Denial is not just a visual spectacle. It beckons viewers to question, reflect, and engage in a dialogue about the modern world's values and obsessions.

Sorry Is Not Enough PP Archival Print by Denial- Daniel Bombardier Limited Edition Print on 290gsm Moab Entrada Fine Art Paper Pop Artist Modern Artwork. PP Printers Proof 2020 Signed & Marked PP Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x18 Archival Pigment Fine Art Denial's "Sorry Is Not Enough": A Striking Statement in Street Pop Art "Sorry Is Not Enough," a potent piece by the artist Denial, whose real name is Daniel Bombardier, encapsulates a powerful socio-political message within the framework of street pop art and graffiti artwork. This limited edition archival print is set on a 290gsm Moab Entrada fine art paper—a medium chosen for its durability and ability to hold vibrant pigments. As a Printer's Proof (PP) from 2020, it has a special place in the artist's portfolio, denoting a limited run personally overseen and marked by Denial himself. The piece's dimensions, an impactful 18x18 inches, provide a square canvas that compels the observer to confront the message head-on. The artwork is notable not only for its technical specifications but for its thematic boldness. It features a stylized depiction typical of Denial's work, with solid and contrasting colors and an iconic and enigmatic central figure. The text "Sorry Is Not Enough" boldly underscores the visual, serving as both a caption and a statement that amplifies the emotional resonance of the image. In street pop art, such directness is not uncommon; it's a genre that often seeks to communicate messages succinctly and powerfully, cutting through the noise to reach its audience. The Role of Printer's Proofs in Contemporary Street Art Printer's Proofs are traditionally part of an edition outside the regular numbered series, typically reserved for the artist's personal use. Their rarity and the artist's direct involvement in their creation often make them more valuable and sought after by collectors. Denial's "Sorry Is Not Enough" PP joins this tradition, allowing collectors to own a piece that comes directly from the artist's hand. The PP mark and Denial's signature confirm its authenticity and the print's status as a genuine piece of his oeuvre. In "Sorry Is Not Enough," Denial employs archival pigment in creating the fine art print, ensuring the longevity of the piece and the stability of its vibrant colors over time. Archival pigments are resistant to the fading and deterioration that often plague art materials, making them a favored choice for works meant to stand the test of time. This attention to longevity is a testament to the merging of street art's immediacy and the enduring nature of fine art. Street Pop Art as a Conduit for Social Commentary Denial's work, particularly this print, exemplifies street pop art's unique ability to serve as a conduit for social commentary. By leveraging the visual language of pop art—bold graphics, explicit imagery, and stark text—artists can communicate complex messages quickly and effectively. This piece, with its evocative facial expression and the simplicity of its accompanying text, invites reflection on the current societal discourse, encouraging the viewer to ponder the depth and sincerity behind apologies and the actions that necessitate them. "Sorry Is Not Enough" is a visual dialogue on accountability and the need for substantial action beyond mere words. This message is particularly resonant in an era where public figures and institutions are often called upon to address their wrongdoings. Denial's print captures this zeitgeist, challenging the viewer to consider what meaningful reparation might look like. In conclusion, "Sorry Is Not Enough" by Denial is a compelling example of how street pop art and graffiti artwork can encapsulate and communicate powerful sentiments. This piece not only reflects Denial's skill as an artist but also embodies the potential of street pop art to engage with and influence public discourse. Through his work, Denial continues to contribute to the rich tapestry of contemporary art, using his platform to provoke thought and inspire change.
