    Zodiac Limited Edition 6-Color Hand-Pulled Silkscreen Print on 140lbs French Paper by Dxtr Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "I did this one just for the fun of it when I had some spare time between projects and always wanted to do a screen print out of it. So when 1xRUN contacted me for another release this was the perfect opportunity to get this one printed finally.I'm a big fan of symbolism as you guys know from our last print. I'm always interested in symbols and the meanings behind it. Every element makes sense and is incorporated for a reason in this artwork. I think it is necessary for my work that all the elements represent something, are meaningful and make sense somehow. I enjoy cryptic, mystic and meaningful icons and elements, so this is why I wanted to create my own Zodiac at some point. " - Dxtr

  • Marchers White Silkscreen Print by Cleon Peterson

    Cleon Peterson Marchers White Silkscreen Print by Cleon Peterson

    Marchers White Silkscreen Print by Cleon Peterson 2 Color Hand-Pulled on Deckled Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. 2016 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 125 Artwork Size 13x34 Silkscreen Print of Tribal Men Carrying Bloody Swords Marching In Line. "Marchers White" stands as a testament to the intersection of pop art and street art, encapsulated in the powerful medium of silkscreen printing. Cleon Peterson, the artist behind this captivating piece, introduces a stark, almost confrontational narrative to the world of contemporary art. Dated to 2016, the work highlights a row of tribal men, each gripping a blood-streaked sword, marching in an unbroken line. Their imposing silhouettes, juxtaposed against the unforgiving black backdrop, become symbolic of unity, resistance, and perhaps even revolt. Hand-pulled on deckled fine art paper, the tactile experience of the piece amplifies the already potent visual impact. This technique, representative of Peterson's commitment to craft, harks back to traditional printing methods, uniting the old with the present in a seamless fashion. Each print in this limited series of 125 carries Peterson's signature, an assurance of authenticity and the artist's personal touch. Despite its seeming simplicity, the artwork is laden with symbolism. The choice of tribal men evokes primitive energies, raw emotions, and unyielding convictions. Their bloodied swords, meanwhile, invite speculation. Are they victims or victors? Oppressed or oppressors? Peterson leaves this open-ended, allowing viewers to craft their narratives or confront their biases. As a beacon in the world of pop and street art, "Marchers Black" is more than just an artwork; it's a conversation, a critique, and a reflection of society's ever-evolving dynamics.

Weapon Graffiti Street Pop Art

Weaponry in the Crosshairs of Street Pop Art and Graffiti

The presence of weapons in street pop art and graffiti carries a hefty load of symbolism and controversy. The very image of a weapon – be it a gun, a knife, or any implement associated with violence – is fraught with socio-political connotations that street artists often leverage to provoke, comment, and sometimes shock their audience. These artists have taken the powerful imagery of weapons and infused it with layers of meaning, transforming them from mere objects of destruction into potent symbols of critique and reflection. Weapons have been a common motif in both graffiti art and pop art. In both graffiti art and pop art, using weapons can be a powerful way to convey a message and provoke a reaction from the viewer. However, it's important to note that the use of violent imagery can also be controversial and can raise questions about the role of art in society. Graffiti artists often use guns, knives, and grenades to convey a sense of danger or rebellion. For example, a spray-painted image of a weapon might be used to represent the power or aggression of a particular person or group. Some graffiti artists have also used weapons to convey a political message. For instance, a mural featuring an AK-47 rifle might be used to criticize the proliferation of guns in society or to express solidarity with a particular political cause. In some cases, graffiti artists have used weapons as a form of commentary on the violence and conflict in the world. For example, a mural featuring a grenade might be used to critique the destructive nature of war or to advocate for peace. Pop artists have also incorporated weapons into their artwork. For instance, Andy Warhol's "Gun" series features images of various firearms, including revolvers and pistols. Roy Lichtenstein's painting "Whaam!" depicts a fighter jet firing a missile, emphasizing the violence and chaos of war. Some pop artists have used weapons to satirize consumer culture or to comment on the commodification of violence. For example, Claes Oldenburg's "Giant BLT (Bacon, Lettuce, and Tomato Sandwich)" features a knife skewering a sandwich, highlighting the absurdity of weaponizing everyday objects.

The Symbolic Arsenal of Street Art

Street artists have long employed the iconography of weapons to convey messages about power, conflict, and resistance. In their hands, weapons become a visual shorthand for a range of issues – from war and peace to crime and justice. Sometimes, the gun is depicted with stark realism, forcing those who encounter the piece to confront the realities of violence head-on. Other times, the weapon is abstracted or juxtaposed with unpredictable elements to create a sense of irony or to challenge the viewer's preconceptions. The use of firearms in graffiti art can directly reflect the artist's environment, where violence may be a daily reality. In cities plagued by crime and unrest, the appearance of weapon imagery in street art can mirror the community's experiences, a raw expression of the turmoil that residents may face. Conversely, in more peaceful or politically stable contexts, weapons in street art can serve as a jarring reminder of global conflicts, a call to action, or a protest against militarism and warfare.

Artists and the Weapon Motif

Some street artists have become particularly associated with the weapon motif, using it as a central theme to explore and challenge societal norms. These artists wield the weapon imagery with intention, repurposing it to critique the issues of aggression and oppression that such objects typically symbolize. The weapon becomes a tool not for violence but for its opposite – a plea for peace, a commentary on the human cost of conflict, or an ironic take on the glamorization of violence in media and culture. The weapon motif in street pop art and graffiti also confronts the viewer with questions about the role of force in justice and the dichotomy between societal order and personal liberty. Through these works, artists can spark discussions on topics that are often uncomfortable but necessary, such as gun control, police brutality, and the arms race. The art acts as a catalyst for dialogue and, at times, as a means to inspire change. The depiction of weapons in street pop art and graffiti transcends the mere representation of violence. These images serve as a vehicle for artists to engage with their audience on complex issues, question, condemn, and inspire. The weapon, with its inherent power and danger, becomes a paradoxical symbol of hope and transformation in the hands of street artists. As long as there are discussions to be had about power, conflict, and violence, weapons will undoubtedly continue to be a compelling and provocative element in the vocabulary of street pop art and graffiti.
