  • Tell Your Bumps Archival Print by Peeta

    Peeta Tell Your Bumps Archival Print by Peeta

    Tell Your Bumps Limited Edition Archival Pigment Print on 310gsm Fine Art Paper by Peeta Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "This piece is part of a 2011 production. Most of the works I have painted during the last part of that year follow the same trend: the painting of fictional brush strokes over the 3d piece on canvas. The practice inspired me to create new volumetric and dynamic effects.Each time I paint a new canvas, I aim to discover the most optimal way to use colors, light and shade to reach a three-dimensional result. Layering splashes of color over the letters brings into keen focus their three-dimensionality, transforming them into real objects that not only cast shadows but also receive or obscure the subsequent blottings and swipes of paint." - Peeta

    Air Chair Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 310gsm Fine Art Paper by Mare139 Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "AirChair is a studio painting on canvas that best illustrates where the B-boy series have been headed since 2013. With this painting I chose to focus on color painting and composition unlike the series of monochromatic paintings I produced in Berlin 2011."The idea came to me when I was watching a street performer hold a similar freeze, his balance and strength impressed me so much I sketched out several variations of him until I found the right interpretation." - Mare139

    Eric Inkala Punching A Hole In The Night Archival Print by Eric Inkala

    Punching A Hole In The Night Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 310gsm Museum Natural Fine Art Paper by Eric Inkala Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "I started the backgrounds of these paintings when I broke my right hand and I am right-handed, couldn’t really paint and it was driving me crazy so I just said fuck it and started painting really abstract backgrounds with my left hand. Then they sat to the side for a while and came back to them a while later when my hand was completely healed and started building up the layers. These paintings are very unique within my body of work. The only two from that time period were I was really exploring meshing different aspects of my painting and sketchbook elements. My work is usually very flat. I would say each painting has at least 10 layers with just a little bit of each poking through to the final product." - Eric Inkala

After all those years I still see this lettering as a self-portrait. By concentrating on a certain idea, the technique or a style, by working on a certain piece for a long time frame, by totally engaging in this process, you get to know a lot about yourself and your personality. And this of course can be seen again in the works, that I create.I wanted to realize something special: The series of these three prints is chosen so that you can reproduce the entire spectrum of my work. My use of the name DAIM is becoming more and more complex in them. My development as a human being strongly corresponds with this process. It has something to do with personal maturing, the general situation of aging." - Daim

  • Ocean Slide Archival Print by Rime

    Rime Ocean Slide Archival Print by Rime

    Ocean Slide Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 310gsm Museum Fine Art Paper by Rime Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "Ocean Slide is a combination of representative elements that touch on collective lust, moral expectations, and my obsession with graffiti painting. Here, four eyed snakes are two faced persuaders that emotionally camouflage themselves to poke through as many holes as possible. Saying goodbye to summer. This piece was made after returning from a trip to Paris in late October. It is the product of a few all night drawing sessions in my NYC studio. The work aims to orchestrate weight, repetition and color. The elements were improvised and placed atop an abstract starting point. Intersecting strokes and confident squiggles got played with." - Rime

    Dvate Carmel Custard Flow Silkscreen Print by Dvate

    Carmel Custard Flow Limited Edition 4-Color Hand-Pulled Silkscreen Print on Mohawk Fine Art Paper by Dvate Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "The print is based of an original artwork that was produced a few years back for a group show at our old gallery PerSquareMetre. I was exploring degradation and layering and also painting on found objects. The original piece belongs to my wife and she won't give it up! The original piece was created using a combination of acrylic paint and spray enamel. The artwork is painted on an old print that belonged to my Mother. I really liked the texture and weathering of the timber on the back so that’s the side I chose to paint. The cheesy 50’s print is still on the other side. At the time I was working with a lot of found objects and customizing my letter style to suit them. I have always used layering in my work to create depth and reference to the gritty street walls that were my original canvas."- Dvate

    Nawer Unforeseen Archival Print by Nawer

    Unforeseen Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 310gsm Fine Art Paper by Nawer Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "Perfection is what haunts me. It beguiles my imagination and disturbs my sleep. It introduces a dissonance into my perception of reality. The worst thing about perfection is that it is unattainable and that I will never achieve it. The best you can do is trying to approach it. For that reason beyond perfection is an attempt at escaping it; taking a look beyond it and immersing yourself in the space other than this possessed by the unattainable. This is where I was trying to find the matter and inspiration for the series. I employed color and space. My aim was to help the recipients find depth because depth allows escaping perfection." - Nawer

    Steel Passion Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 310gsm Fine Art Paper by Made514 Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "I really like the shape of the letters in this piece. They remind me of some kind of a bio/anatomical shape. This piece was originally on exhibit for the Artaq in Paris and sold at the Pierre Cardin space in Paris during an exhibition. It was part of a black and white series I had done on a metal plate and this piece is probably the best piece of the series. I think overall it is also one of my favorite works, I like the flow and the movement that it has. I painted this piece with water-based enamel for the background and fine acrylic for the styles. I also used fire to burn the metal to create different kinds of shadows which gave more depth to the artwork. The support is a metal plate recycled from an offset printing press.” - Made514

  • Etudes 31 Archival Print by Kenji Nakayama

    Kenji Nakayama Etudes 31 Archival Print by Kenji Nakayama

    Etudes 31 Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 310gsm Fine Art Paper by Kenji Nakayama Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "This body of work is called “Etudes” because it was a new challenging exercise for me—not unlike what musicians and composers do with etude works. I had a specific set of rules to work within, but I never knew how the series would develop. It organically evolved over time. This original piece and many others will be for sale at my upcoming exhibition opening April 18th at the Fourth Wall Project in Boston, Massachusetts. It is one of the forty-nine experimental paintings that I created over the past several months. The series began with several rosettes created in the summer and fall of 2013, which might remind viewers of stained glass, mandalas, and hubcaps. The series transitions organically from circular-based works to more calligraphic compositions that meander from central points. The later works in the series take inspiration from Edo-era signage, which is defined by thick and heavy brushstrokes with round edges.

    Vans The Omega Angles Of Elevation Archival Print by Vans The Omega

    Angles Of Elevation Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 300gsm Fine Art Paper by Vans The Omega Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "‘Angles of Elevation’ was the prize geometric piece of my recent show "Into The Light" and is the amalgamation of the past 7 years of trial and error, research and development painting geometric illusion within my fine artworks both in the studio and on large scale walls. I think this piece represents discovery within and the journey we make during life. The science behind geometry in the healing arts isn’t readily taught but is something I have spent many years studying and being open to on a personal and professional level. My belief and knowledge of the healing power that Art creates is a large goal of my practice in Art, both for others and myself alike. Apart from the piece serving an aesthetic appeal, the greatest aim is to reveal something about yourself while taking in the work. Visually this work came together through a series of visions that I have strived to fulfill. The dimension of this piece was my greatest challenge while giving a mixture of etheric and harder edges to push and pull the eye through space so that harmony is met." - Vans The Omega

"This piece was painted in a leaf of slate rock that came from India. It’s been amazing to paint on this kind of surface because I like to paint on something live. I use to paint the shape of my letters searching curve line that is present in nature and this time I was facing a surface with a different nature pattern. The letters are based on a heart form and together they form the style in a unique heart shape It’s a kind of a metaphor about how we are all part of the same One.” - Made514

    Hueman The Waiting Game Archival Print by Hueman

    The Waiting Game Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 310gsm Museum Natural Fine Art Paper by Hueman Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "All of the pieces in this show were created organically, first by painting a spontaneous, freehand abstract background, then finding faces in the paint, carving them out, and building around them with shapes and lines. This one was no exception. Everything I create moves along an improvised stream of consciousness. The title describes the mood I was in when I painted it and is also the title of a song that I had playing while in my studio. The composition is what makes it unique from the rest of my work. The figure is lying down and looking up, and there is a hand, something that I don’t usually paint that often. The abstract clouds and negative space dominate, and the figure doesn’t stand out but instead melts into this strange cloudy shape." - Hueman

PP Printers Proof 2016 Signed & Marked PP Limited Edition Artwork Size 14x21 Archival Pigment Fine Art DAIM's Eruption PP Archival Print: A Fusion of Street Pop Art and Fine Artistry The "Eruption PP Archival Print" by the artist DAIM is a striking example of the fusion between street pop art and the meticulous approach of fine art printmaking. This particular work, part of a limited edition on 310gsm museum fine art paper, showcases the artist's expertise in creating depth and movement on a two-dimensional surface. Known for his dynamic and geometrically complex graffiti works, DAIM has transferred his skill to fine art prints, capturing the spirit of graffiti in a form that allows for preservation and collection. The term 'PP' refers to 'Printer's Proof,' akin to an Artist's Proof but typically reserved for the collaborators in the printmaking process. The printers often retain these proofs as a reference for the quality and color of the print edition. The "Eruption PP Archival Print" from 2016 bears the mark of DAIM's involvement and approval, signed and designated as a PP, further emphasizing its uniqueness beyond the standard edition prints. This print, sized at 14x21 inches, is manageable and highly collectible, making it a sought-after piece for enthusiasts of modern street pop art and graffiti artwork. Technique and Cultural Significance in DAIM's Archival Prints DAIM's mastery in creating complex, 3D-style graffiti is evident in the "Eruption PP Archival Print," where the illusion of protruding shapes and bursting elements is palpable. The use of archival pigment ensures that the vibrancy of the colors and the precision of the details are maintained over time, mirroring the longevity and historical significance of the street art from which it draws inspiration. The technique also allows the artwork to stand the test of time, just as street art's messages and impact continue to resonate within urban landscapes and cultural dialogues. This artwork represents more than just an aesthetic pleasure; it encapsulates the evolving narrative of street art into a more formalized art setting. Through his print, DAIM challenges the traditional separation between the renegade spirit of street art and the curated walls of art galleries. The inclusion of such prints in the art market reflects the changing perceptions of graffiti art, acknowledging its rightful place within the broader spectrum of significant cultural productions. The Impact of Limited Edition Prints in the Art World The introduction of limited edition prints has markedly transformed the world of street pop art and graffiti artwork. These prints allow artists like DAIM to reach a wider audience, offering a piece of their art that is both accessible and exclusive. The "Eruption PP Archival Print" exemplifies this shift, as it is a piece of DAIM's large-scale graffiti legacy and a collectible artwork that can be owned privately. The concept of Printer's Proofs such as this extends the idea of exclusivity and provides collectors with a tangible connection to the artist's original vision. Limited editions like DAIM's print bridge the transient nature of street art and the permanence sought by collectors. As such, they play a crucial role in sustaining the artists and their creative endeavors while ensuring that the art itself is preserved to the elements and the passage of time. In the context of modern art, these prints are more than just reproductions; they are original creations that carry the essence of the artist's hand and the vibrancy of street art culture. In summarizing the importance of DAIM's "Eruption PP Archival Print," it is crucial to recognize the confluence of artistic technique, cultural impact, and market dynamics it represents. This print is a snapshot of DAIM's creative journey, a celebration of street art's influence on contemporary culture, and a testament to the enduring appeal of street pop art and graffiti artwork within the fine art community.

PP Printers Proof 2016 Signed & PP Marked Limited Edition Run Artwork Size 20x25  The Distinctive Fusion in "Right PP" by Chaz Bojorquez Chaz Bojorquez's "Right PP" is a compelling example of the interplay between street pop art and graffiti artwork.

The limited edition print, marked as a Printer's Proof (PP), is a rare collectible within Bojorquez's oeuvre, showcasing his mastery in screen printing. This technique allows for the precise and vibrant application of rich color in texture and depth. The artwork encapsulates Bojorquez's celebrated style, which is deeply rooted in the Cholo graffiti tradition of East Los Angeles. His script, often compared to Asian calligraphy, holds a fluidity and grace that belies the often rugged environments of its origins. The letters swirl and coalesce into forms that are at once abstract and highly deliberate, embodying the artist's connection to his cultural heritage and the broader lexicon of street art. In "Right PP," these scripts are rendered with a precision that screen printing affords, allowing Bojorquez to explore the subtleties of light and shadow, depth and dimension. Chaz Bojorquez's Contribution to Street Art and Its Cultures Chaz Bojorquez is not just an artist; he is a chronicler of the street's pulse and a communicator of its ethos. The significance of "Right PP" extends beyond its visual appeal, engaging with the rich tapestry of street culture. Bojorquez has long advocated recognizing graffiti as a legitimate art form, and his work plays a crucial role in shifting perceptions. Through his art, he conveys stories of identity, community, and resistance, framing the narrative within the accessible screen print medium. The artwork's size, 20x25 inches, is significant as it presents a substantial visual statement while remaining intimate enough to invite close examination. The PP marking indicates not only the print's status within the edition but also Bojorquez's endorsement of the piece as an accurate representation of his artistic vision. As such, each print carries a piece of the history and evolution of street art in Los Angeles and beyond. Enduring Appeal of "Right PP" The enduring appeal of "Right PP" lies in its ability to stand at the intersection of street pop and fine art. Bojorquez's skillful use of the silkscreen technique allows the piece to inhabit both worlds seamlessly. His prints are sought after by collectors who appreciate the nuances of street aesthetics and the craftsmanship of printmaking. With its limited edition run, this particular piece captures a moment when an artist known for his transient street creations turned into a medium that promised longevity. Chaz Bojorquez's work, particularly in prints such as "Right PP," bridges the often disparate art communities. It challenges the notion that graffiti is a subculture or a fleeting act of rebellion. Instead, Bojorquez positions it within a more extensive dialogue about art, culture, and society. This conversation continues to gain relevance as street pop art and graffiti artwork find their way into more traditional art venues and the hearts of a broader public. Chaz Bojorquez's Artistic Legacy Chaz Bojorquez's artistic legacy is cemented not only by his murals and public works but also by his prints, which allow his art to reach a wider audience. "Right PP" is a testament to his enduring impact on the Los Angeles art scene and the global street art movement. His signature style, which has influenced countless artists, continues to resonate through the layers of paint on city walls and the meticulously pulled screens of his prints. The significance of "Right PP" and works like it is found in their capacity to encapsulate the spirit of a particular place and time while speaking to universal themes of identity, expression, and the human experience. Bojorquez's prints are not mere reproductions but artifacts of a life spent in the service of art and community. Each piece tells a story, and "Right PP" is a chapter in the larger narrative of street pop art and graffiti artwork—a narrative that Chaz Bojorquez continues to write with each stroke of his brush and pull of the squeegee.

Abstract Abstraction Graffiti Street Pop Artwork

Abstract Abstraction in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork

Abstract abstraction, a concept often perceived as redundant, is a significant and vibrant facet of street pop art and graffiti artwork. This artistic approach transcends the conventional boundaries of abstract art by pushing the limits of form, color, and composition to create pieces that defy easy categorization or interpretation. In street pop art and graffiti, abstract abstraction becomes a tool for artists to communicate complex ideas and emotions, often rooted in social, political, or personal contexts. Abstract street graffiti art is a form of urban art typically featuring bold and expressive designs, shapes, and colors intended to convey emotion, movement, and energy. Unlike traditional graffiti, which often consists of simple tags or stylized lettering, abstract street graffiti art is typically characterized by its emphasis on abstract shapes and patterns and its use of color and texture to create a dynamic and visually engaging composition. One of the defining features of abstract street graffiti art is its ability to transform an otherwise mundane urban landscape into a vibrant and exciting space. By using the walls, buildings, and other city surfaces as their canvas, graffiti artists can create large-scale works of art that can be viewed and appreciated by anyone who passes by.
In some cases, these works of art can even become landmarks or cultural touchstones within the communities where they are located. Another important aspect of abstract street graffiti art is its ability to convey powerful messages or ideas through visual imagery. Whether it's a statement about social justice, a celebration of diversity and inclusivity, or simply an expression of personal creativity and self-expression, abstract street graffiti art has the power to communicate complex ideas and emotions in a way that is accessible and engaging to a wide range of audiences. Despite its many virtues, abstract street graffiti art is still often viewed with suspicion or even outright hostility by some members of the general public.
In many cases, this is due to a perceived association with vandalism and criminal activity or simply a lack of understanding or appreciation for the cultural and artistic value of this unique and dynamic urban art form. Despite these challenges, abstract street graffiti art continues to thrive and evolve as artists worldwide push the boundaries of what is possible with this exciting and dynamic medium. Whether you see it as a bold act of rebellion or a powerful form of artistic expression, there is no denying the impact that abstract street graffiti art has had on our cities and our culture, and its influence is sure to be felt for many years.

Evolution and Characteristics in Street Art

A gradual shift from the traditional graffiti styles of the 1970s and 1980s marks the evolution of abstract abstraction in street pop art and graffiti artwork. Early graffiti, predominantly in New York and other urban centers, focused on lettering and figurative elements. However, as the art form matured and spread globally, artists began experimenting with abstract forms, color palettes, and spatial arrangements. Pioneers in this movement, like Futura (real name: Leonard Hilton McGurr, United States), transcended conventional graffiti styles, employing spray cans to create sprawling, abstract compositions that were groundbreaking at the time. These artists challenged the norms of both street art and the broader art world. They rejected the idea that graffiti must be about words or recognizable images, instead emphasizing emotional expression and individual creativity. The result was a dynamic and unpredictable form of art that could adapt to any surface or environment and spoke to a diverse, urban audience.

Notable Contributions and Artists

In discussing abstract abstraction in street art and graffiti, it's essential to highlight key figures who have shaped its trajectory. One such artist is Jean-Michel Basquiat (real name: Jean-Michel Basquiat, United States, 1960–1988). Although primarily known for his work in the neo-expressionist movement, Basquiat ventured into abstract graffiti under SAMO. His work in the streets of New York blended text and imagery in a way that blurred the lines between figurative and abstract art, setting a precedent for future generations of graffiti artists. Artists like Banksy (real name unknown, United Kingdom) have also contributed significantly to the field in Europe. While Banksy's work is more symbolic and political, the abstract elements in his compositions – the play with shadows and the distortion of forms – align with the principles of abstract abstraction. Banksy's art, often riddled with irony and dark humor, utilizes abstraction as an aesthetic choice and a means of commenting on societal issues.

Impact and Future Directions

The impact of abstract abstraction in street pop art and graffiti artwork extends beyond the art world. It has influenced graphic design, fashion, and advertising, demonstrating its vast reach and versatility. This art style challenges viewers to engage with the work more intuitively and emotionally, often leaving interpretation open to the individual's experience and perspective. As for the future, the trajectory of abstract abstraction in street art and graffiti seems poised for continual evolution. With digital technology and new mediums, artists have more tools to explore and express their visions. The rise of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) offers new platforms for street artists to experiment with space and form in previously unimaginable ways.
Moreover, the growing acceptance of street art and graffiti in the mainstream world suggests that abstract abstraction will continue gaining prominence and respect. Museums and galleries increasingly showcase street art, acknowledging its cultural significance and artistic merit. This recognition paves the way for new artists to explore abstract abstraction, pushing the boundaries of street art and how it can communicate with a global audience. Abstract abstraction in street pop art and graffiti artwork represents a dynamic and evolving field that defies easy categorization and continues to challenge and inspire artists and audiences alike. Its significance lies in its aesthetic appeal and its ability to communicate complex ideas and emotions, making it a vital component of contemporary art.
