Caravan Chaos Side 4 Panel 11 Original Spray Paint Painting by Mr Doodle- Sam Cox One of a Kind Artwork on Aluminum Panel Mounted On Plywood by Street Art Pop Artist. 2015 Caravan Chaos Side 4 Panel 11 Original 1  of 2 Serial Numbered Spray Painting Original on Aluminum Panel Mounted Plywood Artwork Size 17.25x13.5. Natural Scuffing Lower Right; Residue Lower Right Inherent To The Medium & Media Used. Mr Doodle- Sam Cox's Unique Artistic Language In the dynamic world of pop art and street art, artists like Mr. Doodle, also known as Sam Cox, have carved out a niche with distinctive styles that blur the lines between art, doodling, and graffiti. Mr Doodle's "Caravan Chaos Side 4 Panel 11" is an original work that exemplifies this fusion, showcasing a unique visual language that is playful and meticulously detailed. This one-of-a-kind spray paint painting on an aluminum panel mounted on plywood stands out as a testament to the artist's skill and originality. Spray-painting directly onto an aluminum surface, Mr Doodle's "Caravan Chaos Side 4 Panel 11" is part of a larger body of work that portrays a chaotic yet harmonious world filled with interlocking characters and symbols. Measuring 17.25 by 13.5 inches, this artwork is a vibrant tableau of black and white, teeming with life and movement. The natural scuffing and residue are inherent to the medium and media used to add an extra layer of authenticity and rawness to the artwork. These imperfections are not drawbacks but integral elements contributing to the piece's storytelling. Exploring the Details of Caravan Chaos The intricate patterns and characters that seem to dance across the metal canvas make the artwork's complexity apparent. Each character is whimsically drawn, yet an underlying order to the chaos suggests a narrative or a snapshot of a larger, unseen universe. This snapshot is a classic example of how street art and pop art can transform everyday objects and materials into something extraordinary, a characteristic feature of Mr Doodle's artistic approach. The choice of materials in "Caravan Chaos Side 4 Panel 11" is crucial to understanding Mr Doodle's work. The aluminum panel offers a smooth surface that interacts uniquely with the spray paint, allowing for crisp lines and a stark contrast between the black and white hues. Mounted on plywood, the piece gains a sturdy backdrop, anchoring the ethereal doodles to a physical reality. The natural wear on the artwork suggests it has lived beyond the studio, perhaps even in the streets, where the essence of graffiti art is rooted. The Legacy of Mr Doodle's Caravan Chaos This piece by Mr. Doodle is not just a singular work of art but a fragment of a grander vision the artist has been developing over the years. His style is instantly recognizable and has become synonymous with the playful energy and spontaneity that pop art and street art strive to embody. "Caravan Chaos Side 4 Panel 11" is a frozen moment of this vision, inviting viewers to enter Mr Doodle's world—where art is seen and experienced. Sam Cox's contribution to the art world through his Mr Doodle persona is a vibrant chapter in the ongoing pop and street art story. His works, like "Caravan Chaos Side 4 Panel 11," are visually stimulating and a reminder of the power of art to transform and engage with its audience on multiple levels. As this piece stands, it is a celebration of creativity unleashed, a fitting piece for any collection that values the bold and the whimsical.

Sharktoof Cigarette Pack Limited Resin Sculpture Artwork by graffiti street artist modern pop artist Sharktoof. 2016 Limited Edition of 100 Fine Art Toy Object Artwork Size 10.75x13.5. Sharktoof Cigarette Pack Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Sharktoof is a prominent figure in the contemporary urban art scene, known for his iconic shark imagery, which has become a staple in the lexicon of street and pop art. This piece, the "Sharktoof- Cigarette Pack Pink Limited Resin Sculpture," is a testament to his distinctive style, combining graffiti, street art, and modern pop sensibilities. The "Sharktoof- Cigarette Pack Pink Limited Resin Sculpture" is a powerful expression of street pop art and graffiti artwork. Created in 2016, this limited edition piece stands out for its striking visual appeal and commentary on consumerism and the concept of guilty pleasures. With only 100 pieces made, this delicate art toy became a sought-after collectible among art enthusiasts and collectors. Each four-sided sculpture measures 13.5" x 10.75" x 5.5" and is presented in a gift box with a die-cut foam form that securely cradles the artwork. The dimensions of the sculpture itself, at 10.75x13.5 inches, provide a substantial canvas for Sharktoof's artistry. Hand-painted with attention to detail, both sculptures are different. The unique gradients and the artist's logo on each piece ensure that every collector gets a one-of-a-kind work of art. The Symbolism of the Cigarette Pack The sculpture takes the shape of an opened cigarette pack, a universally recognized image loaded with cultural significance. The cigarette as an object represents many ideas, including controversy, rebellion, big business, and a form of rugged toughness. Through this artwork, Sharktoof aims to provoke public discourse on guilty pleasures—those we indulge in despite societal pressures to feel shame for them. Sharktoof's reflections on the subject matter are embedded within the sculpture. His approach to the silhouette of the cigarette pack is intended to be graphic and unmistakable, a visual cue that triggers a deeper reflection on personal indulgences and the associated societal implications. A Reflection on Guilty Pleasures In his own words, Sharktoof has expressed a fascination with the idea of guilty pleasures and the shame often linked to them. The sculpture serves as a visual challenge, prompting viewers to confront their vices and the emotions they elicit. It's a bold statement on how such pleasures are perceived and the inner conflict they can create. The stark contrast of the pink against the dark background of the sculpture is more than just an aesthetic choice; it represents the juxtaposition between pleasure and guilt, the vibrant and the forbidden. The shark imagery within the pack adds another layer of meaning, as sharks are often associated with danger and fear, much like the risks associated with the very act of smoking. Sharktoof's Legacy in Modern Pop Art Sharktoof's work has always pushed the boundaries of street pop art and graffiti artwork. His bold lines, vivid colors, and incorporation of emblematic symbols speak to a generation that is deeply attuned to the visual language of pop culture and social commentary. The "Sharktoof- Cigarette Pack Pink Limited Resin Sculpture" is a manifestation of this ethos, blending art with a message and packaging it in a form that is both familiar and thought-provoking. As a piece of art, it stands as a marker of its time, encapsulating the ethos of street art's ability to comment on and reflect societal norms and deviations. Collectors and admirers of Sharktoof's work are not just acquiring a piece of art; they are embracing a piece of cultural dialogue that challenges perceptions and invites introspection. The "Sharktoof- Cigarette Pack Pink Limited Resin Sculpture" is more than an object of visual appeal. It is a conversation starter, a statement piece, and a reflection of the artist's deeper narrative on societal behaviors and personal choices. Through this work, Sharktoof has cemented his place in the contemporary art world as an artist who dares to address the uncomfortable, controversial, and often unspoken, making his mark with each brush stroke and idea he sculpts into reality.

First found on the streets of New York this pup found its way into the studio and really came to life. We've been pushing our shimmering print process lately and this felt like the perfect print to introduce this into our practice. Four different editions, two in red glitter and two in black glitter. All stained, sprayed, painted and printed; it's all the hallmarks of a studio print now with a lot more shine. Using the words of the artists themselves, the artwork “gives a person the sense that it is there just for them. That they've stumbled across this great little gem amidst the chaos of daily life that can really speak to them. We try to build in a certain ambiguity that leaves the door open for the viewer to find themselves within the story.” This relational character of the FAILE’s art corresponds and becomes amplified by their consistent travel and lack of a permanent studio until the mid-2000s. This resulted in the duo’s embracement and utilization of urban streets and, naturally, gave the produced work a “site-specific” character since public art inevitably adjusts itself to the location of the display.

Shark Toof Cigarette Pack Limited Edition 2-Color Screen Print on 130lb Cougar Fine Art Paper by Shark Toof street artist modern pop art. 2016 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 40 Artwork Size 18x24 "After a good full year of establishing the Shark Toof Icon on the streets, I didn't quite know where I wanted to move the Icon. It took some isolation to really stand behind my own beliefs without becoming a political artist. Thinking of iconographic shapes, I thought the cigarette pack is an easily identifiable shape which lead me to the idea of "Guilty Pleasures" and the Shark Toof Cigarette Pack. Although, I am not a smoker myself, I support every individual to indulge in whatever pleasures them as long as others aren't effected." - Shark Toof

Demagogue 2-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Cream Speckle Tone Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist For Musician Franz Ferdinand. Signed & Numbered Screen Print 18 x 24 inches Edition of 500 October 18, 2016 I’ve been a big fan of the band Franz Ferdinand since they first hit the scene in 2003. Stylistically, Franz mixes a pinch of glam rock, a nice serving of post-punk and a bit of dance-punk to create a sound that is irresistibly infectious. The band is undeniably stylish in their fashion and their album artwork which is frequently inspired by Russian Constructivism, one of my biggest inspirations as well. The lyrics of singer Alex Kapranos are witty, charming, and often insightful about human nature. Franz Ferdinand is a band of style and substance. -Shepard Fairey

During the first years of its existence, the group did not work inside a studio of its own and, as a result, 1999-2005 has been a period of experimentation for them with different media of creation, as well as ways of exhibiting their work. FAILE has embraced both “traditional” media, such as painting, sculpture, and printmaking, and, at the same time, less conventional ones, for example, window pallets and even prayer wheels.

Pearls Artwork Giclee Limited Edition Print on 80lb White Cougar Cover Stock Fine Art Paper by Pop Culture Graffiti Artist Neal Russler. 2013 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 10 Giclee Print Artwork Size 7x7 in Basic Small Black Frame Size 8x8 Number 10/10 The Artistic Narrative of "Pearls" by Neal Russler "Pearls," a compelling artwork by Neal Russler, is a striking example of how contemporary issues and classical beauty can be interwoven to create thought-provoking pieces within the genres of street pop art and graffiti artwork. This intricate giclée print, meticulously crafted in 2013, is part of a limited edition series signed and numbered by Russler, reflecting his dedication to both the accessibility of street art and the exclusivity of fine art. The print, presented on high-quality paper, captures the complex interplay between the allure of adornment and the stark realities of human and environmental interactions. In "Pearls," the viewer is confronted with juxtaposing a woman's visage and the rich textures of a mass of tentacles adorned with pearls. The detailed stippling technique employed by Russler creates a tangible sense of depth and movement, inviting the observer to ponder the relationship between the luxury suggested by pearls and the potential darkness they can represent. The artwork challenges the viewer to consider the cost of beauty and luxury, invoking themes of exploitation and the often unseen consequences of desire. Exploring Symbolism and Technique in Russler's Work Russler's choice of symbolism in "Pearls" is multifaceted, with the pearls themselves serving as a classical emblem of elegance and the tentacles perhaps hinting at the entanglement of nature with human consumption. The pearls, traditionally associated with purity and wealth, are presented here in a context that suggests a more complicated narrative that may comment on the tension between natural beauty and human appropriation of natural resources. The technique Russler employs in this piece is critical to its impact. The monochromatic palette focuses on the textural contrasts and the intricate linework that defines Russler's artistic signature. Each dot and line is deliberately placed, contributing to a delicate and haunting overall effect. The stark black and white tones of the giclée print underscore the duality in the artwork, emphasizing the dramatic interplay between light and shadow, softness and strength. "Pearls" by Neal Russler significantly contributes to the contemporary dialogue of street pop art and graffiti artwork. Through this print, Russler offers a narrative rich in allegory and technique, evoking a range of responses from its audience. As with much street-inspired art, the piece is rooted in accessibility but is elevated by its execution and the thoughtfulness of its thematic content. "Pearls" is not just a visual experience; it is an invitation to delve into a deeper exploration of the values and implications of the beauty we seek and the objects we treasure.
