Styles Change Style Endures- Magenta 2-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Cream Speckle Tone Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. 14.5 inches by 19 inches Edition of 115 June 18, 2020 Skateboarding saved my life! As both an activity and culture, skateboarding blew the doors open for me to see how creativity, fearlessness, independence, and style could let me paint my own story. To paraphrase Charles Bukowski, everything, worth saying or doing, dull or dangerous, is better with style. I learned the importance of style from skateboarding but I apply style to my art and pretty much anything else I can. My friend Blaize Blouin, the only pro skater from Charleston, S.C., where I grew up, used to say “trendy tricks come and go, but the need for style is constant”. When I picked up Hugh Holland’s Silver Skate 70’s book I was enthralled by all of the photos, but especially gripped by the shot of an unknown kid doing a stylish backside carve at the Kenter Canyon School banks in 1976. -Shepard Fairey

Babysitter On Acid Blotter Paper Limited Edition Archival Pigment Print Art on Perforated Blotter Paper by Matt Gordon pop culture LSD artwork. "The Babysitter on Acid was started almost 8 years ago and I only work on it when I feel like a passenger on the bike, or I have witnessed some weird people in the woods while mountain biking. It was the first painting started after my last solo show where the character on the front of the bike "Stinkeyes" finally got paid with magic money and a dollar bill falls out of his envelope on the frantic way to the bank and subsequently ends up growing into a money tree...still writing the storyline. Anyways. "Stinkeyes" is a partier and is friends with the equally fried babysitter and that's how he got her to give him a lift...This sounds strange now that I'm writing it out, my whole last show was started after I took mushrooms and went to Disney World on New Year's Eve and Jiminy Cricket's narration of the fireworks rewired my mind and artistic path. I'm not receiving that anymore, but it was a long-lasting trip for me..." - Matt Gordon

Through the application of vibrant and chaotic splashes of color, the artwork is infused with a sense of movement and dynamism characteristic of both Ali's boxing style and Mr. Brainwash's artistic approach. This work is not just a mere portrait but a celebration of triumph, diversity, and the indomitable spirit of the human will, as embodied by Ali. The backdrop of the composition is a veritable collage of imagery and color, with each layer of paint and each silkscreened element building upon the last to create a rich tapestry of visual stimuli. The piece is a feast for the senses, with the hand-embellished splatters of paint not only adding texture but also creating an almost palpable energy that radiates from the canvas.

"Absolute Ali" is more than just a work of art. It is a cultural artifact that embodies the essence of Street Pop and Graffiti Artwork.
