    Ben Frost Draw Four- Gold Foil Giclee Print by Ben Frost

    Draw Four- Gold Foil Artwork Giclee Limited Edition Framed Print on Ivory Board Stock Paper by Pop Culture Graffiti Artist Ben Frost. Matted and framed under glass. Ben Frost (b. 1975) Draw Four (Gold Foil), 2021 Giclee in colors on Ivory Board Stock paper 23-1/2 x 16-1/2 inches (59.7 x 41.9 cm) (sheet) Ed. 7/10 Signed and numbered in ink along lower edge Published by the artist. Ben Frost is utilizing imagery familiar to western culture in order to make a statement about the culture itself on the basis of consumerism, modern icons, big corporations, etc. Animation characters, pop icons, brand logos, and many more are transformed into vibrant artworks and find their place in galleries. With this in mind, and in the case of Ben Frost, it is futile to try to identify a clear borderline between low and high art. In reality, the artist wants the audience to think on the terms of high or low value and, by extension, what these actually mean. Over the years street artists have managed to establish themselves as respected creators and some of them have even gained international fame, transforming graffiti from a fringe art, aiming sometimes to mark street gangs’ territory, into big business.

    Happy Helmet Blotter Paper Limited Edition Archival Pigment Print Art on Perforated Blotter Paper by Ben Frost pop culture LSD artwork. Archival Pigment Print on Perforated Blotter Paper Size: 7.5 x 7.5 Inches Release: April 19, 2021 Limited blotter editions are hand-perforated by Zane Kesey & may vary slightly from the example shown. Currently exhibits locally and internationally, while his work has been presented in multiple exhibitions in the USA, Europe, and Asia. One of the first things that one notices in the art of Frost is the unconventional media and means, from traditional square-shaped canvas to cardboard boxes and from acrylic paint to aerosol spray. It is not random that a great portion of his art consists of appropriated imagery of animations, just like the Simpsons, Looney Tunes, Smurfs, Winnie the Pooh, etc., which are placed into a new artistic context, without losing their original connotations.

Ecstasy

Ecstasy can be a fascinating topic in Graffiti Street Pop Art. Graffiti art has long been associated with youth culture, rebellion, and social commentary, while Pop Art often uses bright colors, bold shapes, and imagery from popular culture to comment on society. When it comes to ecstasy, it can be seen as both a drug and a state of mind. Graffiti artists may use imagery related to drugs and drug culture as a way to critique society's attitudes towards substance use or to celebrate the countercultural aspects of drug use. In some cases, they may use images of ecstasy pills, such as the iconic "Mitsubishi" logo, as a symbol of rebellion or defiance. On the other hand, ecstasy can also be seen as a metaphor for the state of euphoria or joy that many people seek in life. Graffiti artists may use images of smiling faces or other symbols of happiness to represent this feeling. They may also incorporate bright colors and bold, swirling shapes to create a sense of movement and energy that evokes the experience of being in a state of ecstasy. In either case, graffiti street pop art can be a powerful way to explore and comment on the complex relationship between drugs, society, and the human experience. By using vibrant colors, bold shapes, and provocative imagery, artists can create works that engage viewers and challenge their perceptions of the world around them.
