    Dave Pollot These Violent Delights Giclee Print by Dave Pollot

    These Violent Delights Giclee Print by Dave Pollot Artwork Limited Edition Print on Fine Art Paper Graffiti Pop Street Artist. 2020 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 15 Artwork Size 24x16.5 Vinatge Italian City on Riverway Populated By Workers From Westworld TV Show Dave Pollot's "Old Is New Is Old Again" is a compelling piece of limited edition giclee print artwork that has found its grounding in the intersection of pop art, street art, and graffiti art. Released in 2020, this stunning piece is a testament to Pollot's unparalleled ability to repurpose, reimagine, and recontextualize traditional art forms into contemporary and engaging works. As part of an exclusive series, only 10 signed and numbered copies of this masterpiece exist, each meticulously produced on fine art paper to ensure longevity and vibrancy of color. Measuring 8x10 inches, with a mat that extends the dimensions to 11x14 inches, "Old Is New Is Old Again" is a captivating representation of a Renaissance man in vintage attire. The main subject, distinguished and posed as a gentleman of a bygone era, sports a curious addition that beautifully exemplifies Pollot's creative aesthetic — a graphic of a wolf howling at the moon. This piece seamlessly integrates aspects of modern imagery with classical portraiture, resulting in a unique fusion that embodies the spirit of graffiti pop and street art. In the realm of pop art, Pollot's piece is a nod to the repetition and mass production synonymous with the movement. By embedding modern iconography into a traditional portrait, the artist creatively merges past and present, thereby urging viewers to explore the ubiquitous influence of pop culture on societal perception. The wolf, a symbol often found in street and graffiti art, adds an element of rawness and organic spirit to the otherwise refined and polished depiction of the gentleman. Street art, often reflective of social and cultural expressions, finds its representation in the artwork as well. Pollot's rendering of the gentleman is symbolic of the adaptability and fluidity of street art, with its roots firmly set in the culture of the streets but its reach extending far beyond. The unorthodox incorporation of a graffiti-style wolf into a classical portrait suggests a strong link to street culture, bridging the gap between fine art and popular expressions of creativity. Graffiti art, traditionally associated with rebellion and counterculture, takes on a new form in "Old Is New Is Old Again." The howling wolf, often used in graffiti as a signifier of freedom and independence, has been seamlessly incorporated into the artwork. Its presence offers a stark contrast to the gentleman's attire, suggesting a dichotomy between societal norms and the desire for personal freedom and expression. Through this piece, Dave Pollot has remarkably bridged the gap between varying art forms and historical periods, crafting a timeless piece that speaks volumes of his understanding of art and culture. "Old Is New Is Old Again" is a perfect example of Pollot's ability to draw from diverse artistic movements and social themes, creating a work that resonates with the complexity and diversity of the human experience. In essence, this piece serves as a visual dialogue between different eras and artistic styles, proving that in the realm of art, the old and the new can coexist in the most harmonious and visually striking ways.

    Eddie Colla Trivaac Inhalation Vaccine HPM Spray Paint Can Sculpture by by Eddie Colla

    Trivaac Inhalation Vaccine HPM Hand Made Limited Edition Mixed Media, Reclaimed Items, Spray Can Sculpture Artwork by graffiti street artist modern pop artist Eddie Colla. 2020 Signed & Numbered HPM Made & Printed Limited Edition of 30 Spray Paint Can Sculpture Artwork. These Are Art Pieces, They Are Not Medical Devices. "I originally made these fake inhalation vaccines as props for two installations I did with D Young V, Epilogue, and Memento Mori. The installations revolved around apocalyptic possibilities. These recycled Spray paint cans were meant to be discarded inhalation vaccines that the World Health Organization had distributed during a global pandemic. The labels contain information about application dosage and active ingredients. I did a lot of research regarding previous pandemics, such as H1N1 (bird flu). The idea was to create an artifact as real as possible to resemble a failed attempt to contain a global pandemic." Eddie Colla Artistic Representation of Global Pandemics Eddie Colla's "Trivaac Inhalation Vaccine" mixed media artworks reflect a hauntingly prescient take on global health crises through the lens of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork. This limited edition series, consisting of only 30 signed and numbered pieces, incorporates reclaimed items and spray paint cans to form sculptures that stand as poignant artifacts of apocalyptic possibilities. Created as part of two installations with fellow artist D Young V, "Epilogue" and "Memento Mori," Colla's sculptures were designed to represent discarded inhalation vaccines distributed by the World Health Organization during a fictional global pandemic. These installations explored themes of human vulnerability, societal collapse, and the interventions that come into play during such catastrophic events. The sculptures themselves, crafted to mimic the appearance and informational detail of real medical devices, resonate with the realism and urgency of a world grappling with the threat of pandemics. Colla's meticulous research into previous health crises, such as H1N1, informed the creation of this spray can sculpture. The labels on each canister are detailed with application dosage and active ingredients, contributing to the authentic feel of the pieces. This attention to detail not only enhances the visual impact of the sculptures but also embeds a narrative that ties them to the real-world context of public health emergencies. Cultural Commentary through Mixed Media The "Trivaac Inhalation Vaccine" sculptures starkly comment on the intersection of art, science, and societal response to global health challenges. By using reclaimed spray paint cans, Colla repurposes the mundane and aligns his work with the ethos of recycling and sustainability. These themes are increasingly relevant in contemporary discourse. These sculptures transform the spray can, a ubiquitous tool in street art, into a vessel of deeper meaning, reflecting on the throwaway culture and the implications of medical waste. This body of work also questions the efficacy and accessibility of healthcare interventions, highlighting the disparity between the intended purpose of medical devices and their actual implementation in crisis scenarios. Colla's sculptures suggest a history of use and urgency when these objects were vital to survival. The limited edition nature of these pieces emphasizes their uniqueness as artworks while alluding to the scarcity of resources that can occur in times of crisis. Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork's Evocative Power Eddie Colla's contribution to Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork is characterized by his ability to evoke robust responses through objects that bridge art and reality. His sculptures are not passive objects; they are conversation starters that prompt viewers to think critically about the state of the world and our responses to impending dangers. In the tradition of street art, these works are accessible yet complex, visually striking yet laden with meaning. The "Trivaac Inhalation Vaccine" series underscores the evocative power of street pop art and graffiti to comment on and engage with current events. Through this series, Colla extends the narrative capabilities of street art beyond the walls and into the three-dimensional realm, offering a tangible connection to the issues that permeate our collective consciousness. In essence, Eddie Colla's "Trivaac Inhalation Vaccine" sculptures embody the innovative and reflective qualities of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork.

Cultural Resonance of the Artwork The cultural resonance of "In This Together" within the street pop art and graffiti artwork scene is significant. It captures a shared sentiment that transcended borders during the pandemic—solidarity. Zupa's work often explores themes of social and political significance, and this piece is no exception.

The piece's impact is further enhanced by its medium—woodblock printing on wood panel—which bridges traditional art-making techniques with modern themes, thus appealing to a wide range of art enthusiasts and collectors. "In This Together" by Ravi Amar Zupa is a compelling piece of contemporary art that resonates with the communal spirit of street pop art and graffiti artwork. Through traditional woodblock printing on reclaimed wood, Zupa creates an artwork that is both a testament to the times and a timeless piece of artistry.

Reclaimed Recycled & Upcycled Graffiti Street Pop Artwork

Reclaimed and Upcycled Materials: A Resourceful Revolution in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork

Recycled Materials in Urban Artistic Expression

Reclaimed and upcycled art mediums have surged in popularity within the street pop art and graffiti art communities, becoming a cornerstone for artists as concerned with sustainability as they are with creativity. These materials, often rescued from the refuse of consumer culture, are transformed and given a second life as part of a new artistic creation. The reuse of materials not only serves a practical purpose but carries a powerful message about consumption, waste, and the potential for regeneration. 

Upcycling in Artistic Techniques and Media

The techniques and media involved in upcycled art are as diverse as the materials. Artists may employ anything from discarded cans and bottles to old signage and defunct technology as their canvases. Repurposing these items often involves deconstructing their original form, followed by a creative reconstruction into something that stands apart from its prior utilitarian purpose. The process is both a physical and a conceptual transformation, which imbues the artwork with layers of meaning and history.

The Aesthetics of Upcycled Art

Aesthetically, upcycled art can range from rough and industrial to sleek and sophisticated, depending on the artist's intentions and the materials used. The inherent textures, colors, and forms of reclaimed items provide a rich tapestry for artists to work with. This resourcefulness in material choice often leads to unique and unexpected visual outcomes, challenging traditional notions of what mediums are appropriate for art-making.

Cultural Impact of Reclaimed Art Media

Culturally, using reclaimed art media in street pop art and graffiti has had a profound impact. It is a form of expression that aligns with the ethos of the street art movement, which often seeks to make powerful statements in accessible ways. By utilizing readily available and often overlooked materials, artists make a statement about resourcefulness and the potential for beauty in the mundane. It also serves as a commentary on environmental issues, urging viewers to consider their daily consumption habits and the lifecycle of the objects they use.

Innovation and Evolution of Upcycled Art Forms

The innovation and evolution of upcycled art forms continue to push the boundaries of what is possible in street pop art and graffiti. Artists are continually finding new methods to incorporate reclaimed materials into their work, exploring the limits of these mediums and the messages they can convey. The practice also reflects a shift towards more conscious art-making, where the impact on the environment is considered alongside the aesthetic value of the piece. Reclaimed and upcycled mediums have carved out a vital space in street pop art and graffiti, reflecting a growing trend toward sustainability and consciousness in art. These materials, once discarded, are seen through a new lens, their potential for rebirth and transformation celebrated and utilized. In the hands of visionary artists, what was once considered waste is re-envisioned as an essential part of the creative process, challenging both artists and viewers to reconsider the value of what is thrown away. This practice not only diversifies the media used in urban art but also contributes to a broader conversation about sustainability, creativity, and the role of art in society.
