War By Numbers VSE- OG Colorway Variable Stencil Edition Acrylic Artwork on Hand Deckled Fine Art Paper by Street Artists Shepard Fairey x Ernesto Yerena Montejano x Hecho Con Ganas x Obey. 2022 War By Numbers VSE- OG Colorway 20x26.5 inches. Signed & Numbered Ultra Rare Edition of 14. Variable Stencil Edition (VSE) on Paper. Signed by Shepard Fairey, Hecho Con Ganas publishing chop in the lower-left corner. "Created during the Iraq war, but the quest for peace requires perpetual vigilance, and the current invasion of Ukraine is a reminder of the brutality of war. The “War By Numbers” image is a statement about not becoming desensitized by war to the extent that it becomes as banal as a paint-by-numbers image. The “Peace Elephant” is an appeal to our sense of Karma and harmony with the world around us." - Shepard Fairey A profound intersection of artistry and activism emerges in "War By Numbers VSE- OG Colorway," an emblematic piece presented by the collaborative brilliance of Shepard Fairey, Ernesto Yerena Montejano, Hecho Con Ganas, and Obey. Showcased on meticulously hand-deckled fine art paper, this 20x26.5 inch artwork not only exemplifies the prowess of its creators but also delves deeply into the social and political fabric of contemporary global scenarios. Dated 2022, this piece holds the distinction of being an ultra-rare Variable Stencil Edition (VSE) on paper, with only 14 such editions in existence, each one thoughtfully signed and numbered. Notably, the presence of the Hecho Con Ganas publishing chop in the lower-left corner augments its authenticity and intrinsic value. While the artwork itself is a marvel of color interplay and design, its underlying message is both timeless and urgent. Shepard Fairey's own words elucidate the motivation behind its creation, highlighting its inception during the Iraq war. Yet, its resonance extends beyond that particular conflict. The piece emerges as an enduring reminder of the costs of warfare, particularly with the poignant backdrop of the recent Ukraine invasion. Fairey astutely draws attention to the dangers of becoming inured to the horrors of conflict, suggesting that society must never allow war's devastation to become as commonplace and mundane as a paint-by-numbers image. This sentiment is further emphasized by the inclusion of the "Peace Elephant," symbolizing the universal aspiration for harmony and an appeal to humanity's collective conscience. In the vast realm of pop art, street art, and graffiti, "War By Numbers" stands as a testament to art's ability to transcend aesthetic appeal, challenging viewers to confront and engage with the world's most pressing issues.

Sheer Art Attack Ink Drawing on Fine Art Paper by Derek Hess graffiti street artist modern original art. 2014 Signed Framed Original Ink Drawing Artwork Size 15x17 "My first batch was done in 2010/2011 and showed during the World's Largest Crappie Festival in Water Valley Mississippi, that was awesome. All are were made using pen, ink, and acrylic. My father was a B-26 pilot and my dad helped instill the interest in the subject. Two of the pieces feature a rock bass morphed with a B-26. These are completely different from what I normally do, whatever 'normal' means. Anyway, these were just a lot of fun to do. Whereas some of the intense pieces that I do I feel I have to do, as to purge it from my system, which works half the time (I tend to carry that stuff with me). I wanted to do these for fun and are a great distraction." - Derek Hess

Socrates' Philosophies Wu-Tang Clan Silkscreen Print by Mark Drew Hand-Pulled on Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork. 2021 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 150 Artwork Size 16.5x11.73 Silkscreen Print Mark Drew's Blend of Classical Thought and Modern Rhythms Mark Drew's silkscreen print titled "Socrates' Philosophies Wu-Tang Clan" represents a unique intersection of classical philosophy and contemporary hip-hop, embodied within the medium of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork. The limited edition piece, hand-pulled on fine art paper, was released in 2021 in a numbered series of 150, each piece bearing the artist's signature. The artwork, measuring 16.5x11.73 inches, features a silkscreen print that stands out for its creative fusion of an iconic historical figure with the lyrical genius of the Wu-Tang Clan, a seminal group in the landscape of hip-hop music. The print alludes to a famous line from the Wu-Tang Clan's "Wu-Tang Forever" album, where rap is elevated to the status of philosophical discourse. Drew's artistic rendition captures the essence of this comparison by depicting a cartoon character in deep contemplation, surrounded by the chaos of flying bees, symbolizing the swarming ideas of Socrates' philosophies with the swarm of the Wu-Tang Clan's collective creativity. This work celebrates the enduring relevance of philosophical inquiry, cleverly juxtaposed with the enduring impact of hip-hop on modern culture. The Cultural Commentary of Drew's Artistic Expression The cultural commentary in "Socrates' Philosophies Wu-Tang Clan" is multi-layered. Drew uses the art form to explore the dialogue between ancient knowledge and the poetic expression found in rap lyrics. Much like his other works, this piece showcases Drew's ability to transcend traditional boundaries of art, music, and thought. The visual narrative invites viewers to engage with the complexities of communication across time, illustrating how ancient wisdom resonates in the contemporary lexicon of music and Street Pop Art. Drew's choice of the silkscreen printing process is particularly fitting for this piece, as it allows for the precision and boldness necessary to convey the complex message. With its roots in both commercial art and the DIY ethos of street art, the technique lends a pop art aesthetic that is immediately recognizable and accessible. The limited edition nature of the print speaks to the exclusivity often associated with fine art, while the subject matter maintains the accessibility and cultural connectivity of street art. This artwork serves as a bridge, connecting the reflections of a classical philosopher with the modern narratives of the Wu-Tang Clan, whose work is often described as cerebral and steeped in Eastern philosophy. Through this print, Mark Drew celebrates the timeless nature of intellectual discourse, manifested through the rhythm and rhyme of one of the most influential hip-hop groups ever. The result is a piece that is visually striking and intellectually stimulating, embodying the core of what makes Street Pop Art a powerful medium for cultural expression.
