These ready-to-hang prints are a fusion of vibrant colors and intricate design, each crafted from an assembly of Rubik’s Cubes to bring Invader’s acclaimed series to life. The art prints are expertly Diasec-mounted, ensuring a high-quality giclée finish that enhances the visual depth and color fidelity. Set against a robust, laser-cut aluminum composite panel, these pieces measure an impressive 100 x 100 cm and have a solid presence at 13.5kg each. Elevate your space with these conversation-starting prints that blend pop culture with sophisticated artistry. Innovative Fusion in Invader's Rubik Camouflage Rubikcubism Series The Rubik Camouflage pattern created by Invader symbolizes the artist's legacy as an urban disruptor. Over several decades, he has left his mark on cities across the globe by installing pixelated mosaics, often influenced by classic video games from the 8-bit era. The Rubik's Camouflage design features a white creature reminiscent of Space Invader set against a vibrant blue, red, yellow, and orange backdrop arranged in a military-style camouflage. Invader has commented that this artwork represents the infiltration of modern technology into our daily lives. The Rubik Camouflage Rubikcubism Metal Giclee Print represents Invader's innovative approach to street pop art and graffiti artwork. The pseudonymous French artist Invader has long been celebrated for uniquely incorporating digital and gaming elements into the public sphere. His limited edition series, comprising four color-filled prints, exemplifies his distinctive style known as 'Rubikcubism'—a term he coined to describe his art made from Rubik's Cubes. These works are visually striking and embody a complex interplay between pop culture, technology, and traditional street art aesthetics. Each print in the series is a testament to Invader's mastery of blending classical art techniques with contemporary mediums. The choice of Rubik's Cubes as the basis for these prints is a nod to the nostalgia of the 1980s, re-envisioned through a modern lens. The cubes are meticulously arranged to create an image that, upon closer inspection, reveals the complexity of its construction. This method is reminiscent of pointillism, where small, distinct dots of color are applied in patterns to form an image. Invader's technique, however, is uniquely futuristic, utilizing the cubic form and the inherent challenge of the Rubik's Cube to dictate the aesthetic outcome. The metal giclee prints are a further exploration of material and medium. By mounting the giclée prints on Diasec—a process where the print is bonded to acrylic glass—and then onto an aluminum composite panel, Invader ensures durability and an almost three-dimensional visual effect. This innovative use of materials reflects the street artist's understanding of the importance of longevity and the impact of texture and depth in visual art. Cultural Commentary and Artistic Merit Invader's artworks are more than mere decorative pieces; they are rich in cultural commentary and artistic merit. The limited edition series, with each piece signed and numbered by the artist, becomes a collectible item that holds value both in the art market and within the community of street art enthusiasts. The specific edition size of 812 may allude to a personal or thematic significance, adding mystery and exclusivity to the series. These prints intersect art and puzzle, a duality that challenges the viewer to engage with the artwork on multiple levels. They also represent the broader movement of street pop art, which often repurposes elements of popular culture to create something entirely new and unexpected. Invader's work disrupts the traditional narrative of street art being ephemeral and instead offers a vision of it as something that can be preserved, collected, and treasured. The Rubik Camouflage Rubikcubism Metal Giclee Print series is ready to hang, which speaks to the artist's intention of these works being accessible and enjoyed by a broad audience. The robust construction and careful consideration of the mounting process mean that these pieces are aesthetically pleasing, practical, and ready for display. The Evolution of Street Art in Invader's Practice Invader's practice represents a significant evolution in the field of street art. He bridges the gap between street art and fine art by moving beyond the walls and into the realm of tangible, collectible art objects. His work challenges the perception of street art, expanding it to include the creation of physical artifacts that carry the spirit of the streets into private collections and galleries. The use of Rubik's Cubes objects is intrinsically linked to the idea of problem-solving and intellectual challenge within his art, inviting a dialogue about the interconnectivity of art, play, and cerebral engagement. Invader's pieces are not passively consumed; they require active participation from the viewer, both intellectually and emotionally. The playful aspect of his work does not diminish its seriousness; rather, it enhances the viewer's connection to the art. Invader's Rubik Camouflage Rubikcubism Metal Giclee Print series is a remarkable contribution to street pop art and graffiti artwork. It is a testament to the artist's ingenuity and ability to push the boundaries of what is expected in this art form. These limited edition prints are not only a celebration of the artist's iconic style but also a significant marker of the progression of street art into new and exciting territories.

Ben Frost Chasing Ghosts Blotter Paper Archival Print by Ben Frost
Gotta Take 'Em All Blotter Paper Archival Print by Ben Frost Limited Edition Fine Art Archival Pigment Print Art on Perforated Blotter Paper. 2023 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 100 Archival Pigment Print on Perforated Blotter Paper Size: 7.5 x 7.5 Inches Release: April 19, 2023 Pac-Man Video Game Limited blotter editions are hand-perforated by Zane Kesey. "Gotta Take 'Em All Blotter Paper" merges the iconic imagery of the classic arcade game Pac-Man with the distinctive style of contemporary artist Ben Frost. The work is an archival pigment print on perforated blotter paper, continuing Frost's signature approach of combining pop culture elements with commentary on pharmaceuticals and drugs. This limited edition piece, signed and numbered with a release of only 100 copies, is a fine example of modern pop art and its intersection with street and graffiti art aesthetics. Released on April 19, 2023, each print measures 7.5 by 7.5 inches, symbolizing the retro video game culture and its influence on modern society. The vibrant artwork features the universally recognized yellow character, here presented with a twist, as it appears to interact with the letters "MDMA," positioned prominently in the style of a game's high score display. This is a clear nod to the contrast and conversation that Frost aims to present within the themes of playfulness and the more adult-oriented world of recreational drug use. Each piece's blotter paper is hand-perforated by Zane Kesey, echoing the artisanal quality and tying back to a history of psychedelic art linked to his father, Ken Kesey. Through this collaboration, the art not only showcases Frost's visual acumen but also respects the deeper roots of blotter art within counter-culture. The meticulous craftsmanship underscores the exclusivity of the edition, making it highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts of both video game memorabilia and cutting-edge art. The "Gotta Take 'Em All Blotter Paper" acts as a cultural mirror, reflecting issues around the consumption and commercialization of nostalgia. Ben Frost's ability to layer themes—contrasting innocent childhood games with adult substance use—challenges the viewer to question the complexities of these intertwined worlds. In essence, this art piece captures the zeitgeist of a society grappling with the allure of digital entertainment and its contrasting realities.
