Old Is New Is Old Again Giclee Print by Dave Pollot Artwork Limited Edition Print on Fine Art Paper Graffiti Pop Street Artist. 2020 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 10 Artwork Size 8x10 Matted to 11x14 Renaissance Man Vintage Gentleman Wearing a Wolf Howling At The Moon Dave Pollot's "Old Is New Is Old Again" is a compelling piece of limited edition giclee print artwork that has found its grounding in the intersection of pop art, street art, and graffiti art. Released in 2020, this stunning piece is a testament to Pollot's unparalleled ability to repurpose, reimagine, and recontextualize traditional art forms into contemporary and engaging works. As part of an exclusive series, only 10 signed and numbered copies of this masterpiece exist, each meticulously produced on fine art paper to ensure longevity and vibrancy of color. Measuring 8x10 inches, with a mat that extends the dimensions to 11x14 inches, "Old Is New Is Old Again" is a captivating representation of a Renaissance man in vintage attire. The main subject, distinguished and posed as a gentleman of a bygone era, sports a curious addition that beautifully exemplifies Pollot's creative aesthetic — a graphic of a wolf howling at the moon. This piece seamlessly integrates aspects of modern imagery with classical portraiture, resulting in a unique fusion that embodies the spirit of graffiti pop and street art. In the realm of pop art, Pollot's piece is a nod to the repetition and mass production synonymous with the movement. By embedding modern iconography into a traditional portrait, the artist creatively merges past and present, thereby urging viewers to explore the ubiquitous influence of pop culture on societal perception. The wolf, a symbol often found in street and graffiti art, adds an element of rawness and organic spirit to the otherwise refined and polished depiction of the gentleman. Street art, often reflective of social and cultural expressions, finds its representation in the artwork as well. Pollot's rendering of the gentleman is symbolic of the adaptability and fluidity of street art, with its roots firmly set in the culture of the streets but its reach extending far beyond. The unorthodox incorporation of a graffiti-style wolf into a classical portrait suggests a strong link to street culture, bridging the gap between fine art and popular expressions of creativity. Graffiti art, traditionally associated with rebellion and counterculture, takes on a new form in "Old Is New Is Old Again." The howling wolf, often used in graffiti as a signifier of freedom and independence, has been seamlessly incorporated into the artwork. Its presence offers a stark contrast to the gentleman's attire, suggesting a dichotomy between societal norms and the desire for personal freedom and expression. Through this piece, Dave Pollot has remarkably bridged the gap between varying art forms and historical periods, crafting a timeless piece that speaks volumes of his understanding of art and culture. "Old Is New Is Old Again" is a perfect example of Pollot's ability to draw from diverse artistic movements and social themes, creating a work that resonates with the complexity and diversity of the human experience. In essence, this piece serves as a visual dialogue between different eras and artistic styles, proving that in the realm of art, the old and the new can coexist in the most harmonious and visually striking ways.

Three-Piece Etching Limited Edition Etching with Aquatint Print on Hand-Decorated Fine Art Paper by Zwy Milshtein is a pop art graffiti artist art. 1970 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition Etching Art Print. Artist: Zwy Milshtein Title: Three Piece Etching Medium: etching, with Aquatint Size: 21 x 30 inches Edition: Signed in pencil and marked 26/75 Zwy Milshtein: A Maestro of Etching and Aquatint Zwy Milshtein's artistic narrative is one of movement, not just across geographies but also through the evolution of his distinct style and technique. Born in 1934 in Kichinev, now known as Moldova, Milshtein's journey through the turbulence of World War II led him from Russia to Romania and eventually to Israel. However, in Paris, to which he moved in 1955, Milshtein found his enduring artistic home. Here, he became renowned as both a painter and a master engraver, celebrated for his etchings and engravings that capture the complexity of human experience. The Intertwining Paths of Engraving and Street Art The "Three-Piece Etching" by Milshtein is a testament to the craftsmanship and depth of engraving as an art form. Completed in 1970, this signed and numbered limited edition etching with aquatint, measuring 21 x 30 inches, is a fine example of Milshtein's adeptness with aquatint—a technique that allows for the creation of tonal effects, producing rich textures and a range of shades that lend a painterly quality to prints. This artwork, part of an exclusive series marked 26/75, is particularly notable for its abstract composition and the intriguing use of negative space, which engages the viewer in a visual dialogue reminiscent of contemporary street art and graffiti. Milshtein's Impact on Contemporary Art Milshtein's influence on the art world is well-documented through numerous exhibitions and retrospectives. His work was featured at ARC, the Museum of Modern Art in Paris, and in 1978, the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris hosted a retrospective exhibition of his engravings. His artistic achievements include participation in the Hans Christian Andersen House project 1997, where he, along with other top European artists, paid tribute to the Danish author's bicentennial birthday. The aesthetic choices and technical skill displayed in works like "Three-Piece Etching" echo the visual strategies found in street pop art and graffiti. Milshtein's art, while distinct in its medium and execution, shares the spirit of innovation and subversion that is a hallmark of street art. His engravings invite the public to explore themes of identity, memory, and existence, much like street art and graffiti often do within the urban landscape. Zwy Milshtein's contributions to the world of engraving and his explorations in aquatint have secured his reputation as an artist of great skill and depth. "Three-Piece Etching" is a prime example of his ability to communicate complex ideas through printmaking. His legacy continues to inspire and influence artists within and beyond pop art, street art, and graffiti, affirming his artistry's enduring power and relevance.
