Speedy On Adderall 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 Speedy Gonzales Looney Tunes Limited blotter editions are hand-perforated by Zane Kesey. The "Speedy On Adderall Blotter Paper Archival Print" is another provocative piece by contemporary artist Ben Frost, known for his critical and vibrant works that often incorporate elements of pop culture and consumerism. Released alongside its counterpart on April 19, 2023, this limited edition piece similarly presents a stark commentary on the intersection of medication, in this case, Adderall, and cartoon characters, with Speedy Gonzales of Looney Tunes fame taking the spotlight. Limited to a mere 100 signed and numbered editions, this artwork is printed on 7.5 x 7.5 inches perforated blotter paper, a material choice that is emblematic of Frost's distinctive approach to art creation. The medium is particularly notable for its historical association with the distribution of substances, thereby intensifying the print's dialogue about pharmaceutical consumption and its prevalence in society. Speedy Gonzales, the "fastest mouse in all Mexico," is a fitting character for this work, bringing into focus the drug's intended effects on attention and speed of cognitive processes. By placing this animated icon on a background that mimics a prescription for Adderall, a medication used to treat ADHD and narcolepsy, Frost not only showcases his hallmark juxtaposition of innocence with more adult themes but also casts a light on the sometimes frivolous use of prescription stimulants in today's fast-paced lifestyle. Each print is hand-perforated by Zane Kesey, adding a layer of authenticity and craft that contrasts with the otherwise mass-produced nature of the subjects depicted. In the realms of pop, street, and graffiti art, Frost's work is both a critique and a celebration of the culture it represents. This piece, much like other works by the artist, invites viewers to question the narratives fed to us by the media and pharmaceutical companies and encourages a dialogue on the cultural implications of these narratives. "Speedy On Adderall" is more than just a piece of fine art; it is a cultural statement, encapsulating concerns about mental health, the ethics of drug use, and the pervasive nature of animated characters in shaping our understanding of the world. Collectors and enthusiasts who acquire this print not only get a unique piece of art but also engage with the broader conversations that are central to Frost's artistic agenda.

The piece showcases the famed video game character Super Mario, depicted in vibrant colors, entwined with the word "KETAMINE" and associated pharmaceutical verbiage. This visual blend delivers a potent statement on the recreational drug culture while playing with the commercialization of beloved childhood figures.

The Essence of "I Love Graffiti" by LushSux "I Love Graffiti," a striking acrylic on linen canvas by LushSux, captures the heart of street pop art and graffiti artwork with a bold simplicity that speaks volumes. Created in 2014, this signed original measures 15.75x19.6 inches and presents a text type art reading the declarative sentence "I Love Graffiti." LushSux, an Australian street artist known for his controversial and often humorous work, uses this piece to make a direct statement about his passion for graffiti, a sentiment shared by many within and outside the graffiti community. The straightforward message, underscored by the artist's choice to render the text in a style reminiscent of graffiti lettering, conveys a candid appreciation for the art form while also alluding to the complex relationship society has with graffiti. Stylistic Elements and Cultural Commentary in LushSux's Work The artwork's design, characterized by thick black outlines filled with a sky blue, reflects the quintessential graffiti aesthetic—bold, readable from a distance, and unabashed in its existence. This visual approach is not just an artistic choice but also a nod to the origins of graffiti as a form of street-level communication, often used to convey messages or mark territory. LushSux's use of a stretched linen canvas as the substrate for this piece elevates the traditionally illicit act of graffiti into the realm of fine art, challenging viewers to reevaluate the distinctions between vandalism and art. The inclusion of a sardonic footnote, "as long as it's not on my property," adds a layer of self-aware commentary, acknowledging the contentious nature of graffiti as both celebrated art and criticized public nuisance. LushSux's Contribution to the Dialogue on Street Art With "I Love Graffiti," LushSux contributes to the ongoing dialogue about the place of street art in contemporary culture. By bringing a declaration of love for graffiti into the gallery space, the artist bridges the gap between the raw, often unsanctioned expressions found on city walls and the sanitized, curated experience of viewing art in conventional settings. This piece serves as a reminder of the roots of street pop art, grounded in a love for bold expression and the desire to make a mark on the world. As a modern pop artist, LushSux navigates the fine line between irreverence and homage, using his platform to both celebrate and critically examine the art form to which he has dedicated his career. "I Love Graffiti" stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of graffiti and its ability to provoke, inspire, and resonate with a wide audience.

Vampire USA Company of Thieves Original Painting Spray Paint, Acrylic and Mixed Media On Wood Panel by Ben Frost Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2013 Signed Original Spray Paint & Acrylic Wood Cradled Ready To Hang Painting Artwork Size 24x32 Vampire USA by Ben Frost: A Bold Intersection of Culture and Critique Ben Frost's "Vampire USA" from the "Company of Thieves" series is a vivid example of modern pop art's seamless fusion with street sensibilities. The striking spray paint, acrylic, and mixed media composition on a wood panel embody the rebellious spirit that fuels much of contemporary street pop art and graffiti artwork. Created in 2013, this signed original artwork measures 24x32 inches and is cradled and ready to hang, offering a stark commentary on American culture through street art aesthetics. Australian artist Ben Frost is known for his visually arresting work that often repurposes the iconography of consumerism and popular culture to create new, challenging narratives. "Vampire USA" exemplifies Frost's approach, utilizing familiar symbols and subverting them to critique American society. The vampire motif layered over the stars and stripes of the American flag creates an immediate and unsettling juxtaposition. The vampire, traditionally a symbol of parasitism and predation, becomes an allegory for the darker aspects of the American dream, suggesting a nation that feeds off others or perhaps even itself. The intensity of the artwork is heightened by Frost's choice of medium and technique. The raw, visceral quality of spray paint, often associated with the underground graffiti scene, clashes with the precision of acrylics to create an anarchic and meticulous piece. This duality reflects the complex nature of American culture, where order and chaos often coexist. Decoding the Symbolism in "Vampire USA" In "Vampire USA," the flag is not just a backdrop but an integral part of the narrative. The stars and stripes become the vampire's skin, the fabric of its being, suggesting that the entity and the nation are inseparable. The use of red, white, and blue – colors that evoke feelings of patriotism – is transformed into a visual scream that challenges the viewer to reassess their understanding of national identity and values. The choice to paint on wood panels also contributes to the artwork's impact. The organic texture of wood grounds the piece in a tactile reality, in contrast to graffiti's ethereal and often ephemeral nature. It is a statement of permanence, an assertion that the questions and issues raised by the painting will not simply vanish with the morning light. "Vampire USA" is a powerful piece of street pop art that embodies the genre's ability to reflect and critique society. Ben Frost's work captures contemporary culture's zeitgeist, using the streets' language to engage with deeper themes of identity, consumption, and the American psyche. As the artwork hangs poised for display, it serves as a bold reminder of art's potential to confront, unsettle, and inspire dialogue.

LushSux: Bringing Graffiti into Unconventional Spaces LushSux's decision to tag a model train car symbolizes the ingenuity inherent in street art culture. LushSux challenges the expectations of where street art can exist and what it can adorn by choosing an HO-scale train, a beloved item among model train enthusiasts. The work features a graffiti tag or throw-up painting, a style characterized by quick execution and often used by graffiti artists to mark territory. Yet, when applied to a model train, the artwork transcends territorial claims and enters the realm of collectible art.

DJ Qbert Limited Edition Archival Pigment Print on 310gsm Fine Art Paper by Ben Frost, Denial, DJ Qbert Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. Canadian artist Denial and Australian-born Ben Frost have joined forces in a bold exhibition of new work that explores the boundaries of appropriation, in confronting re-imaginings of our current dystopian society. "Company of Thieves" at Inner State Gallery in Detroit with special guest DJ Qbert. These self-confessed ‘visual thieves have a long history of stealing and subverting the cultural icons that the advertising and consumerist world has thrust upon us, creating new and pertinent interpretations that are as confronting as they are humorous. This collaboration with DJ Qbert carries on with this theme as all 3 artists join together as a Company of Thieves, sampling and remixing to create something entirely new. Ben Frost is utilizing imagery familiar to western culture in order to make a statement about the culture itself on the basis of consumerism, modern icons, big corporations, etc. Animation characters, pop icons, brand logos, and many more are transformed into vibrant artworks and find their place in galleries. With this in mind, and in the case of Ben Frost, it is futile to try to identify a clear borderline between low and high art. In reality, the artist wants the audience to think on the terms of high or low value and, by extension, what these actually mean. Over the years street artists have managed to establish themselves as respected creators and some of them have even gained international fame, transforming graffiti from a fringe art, aiming sometimes to mark street gangs’ territory, into big business.

Can't Sleep Clowns Will Eat Me- 17 x 17 Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 310gsm Museum Natural Fine Art Paper by Ben Frost Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "The world is run by clowns. Moronic and colorful, they dance across our television screens touting surreal propaganda and advertising slogans in a bizarre theatrical performance without intermission. No wonder I have trouble sleeping.? I use mini-dialogues that come together to make up an overall pastiche, that reflects how I see the world – especially as it is delivered to us through the media. In these 'mash-up' paintings, countless characters exist and interact within the same picture plane, to create a frenetic snapshot of the chaos that we endure in our every-day lives. " - Ben Frost Ben Frost is utilizing imagery familiar to western culture in order to make a statement about the culture itself on the basis of consumerism, modern icons, big corporations, etc. Animation characters, pop icons, brand logos, and many more are transformed into vibrant artworks and find their place in galleries. With this in mind, and in the case of Ben Frost, it is futile to try to identify a clear borderline between low and high art. In reality, the artist wants the audience to think on the terms of high or low value and, by extension, what these actually mean. Over the years street artists have managed to establish themselves as respected creators and some of them have even gained international fame, transforming graffiti from a fringe art, aiming sometimes to mark street gangs’ territory, into big business.

Tigger on Zoloft Limited Edition Archival Pigment Fine Art Prints on Bauhaus Cotton Fine Art Paper by Graffiti Street Art and Pop Culture Artist Ben Frost. ‘Tigger On Zoloft’ Archival Digital Print on Bauhaus 310gsm Photo Rag 100% Cotton Paper Embossed, signed and editioned by Ben Frost 30cm x 30cm (12 x 12 inches) Melbourne, Australia Edition of 50 The essence of Frost’s commentary is established on the basis of subverting the meaning and the messages, promoted by the mainstream media. In other words and, as he has stated in the past: “The less you fill your mind with the trappings of advertising and bad television, the more space you have in your brain for things of value”. At the same time, his take on modern pop culture is equally compelling. Mainstream media, advertisements, and politics can be identified as some of his main fields of interest, which he utilizes and mixes up in a controversial formation. The word controversial is not used incidentally. What Ben Frost’s art is doing is, essentially, the appropriation and weaponization of imagery against the same system that gave birth to it.

Memento Mori White HPM Hand Embellished Art Acrylic & Spray Paint on Shaped Wood Painting Artwork by Street Pop Modern Artist Ben Frost. AP Artist Proof 2021 Signed Marked HPM Hand Embellished AP & Titled Ben Frost Memento Mori (White), HPM Acrylic and Spray Paint on Shaped Wood Artwork Size 7-7/8 x 6-1/8 inches (20.1 x 15.5 cm) Ben Frost's "Memento Mori (White) HPM" presents a compelling convergence of street art sensibility with the classical theme of life's transient nature. This hand-embellished artist proof is a telling example of Frost's acumen in merging the edginess of modern pop art with profound historical motifs. The work is meticulously crafted using acrylic and spray paint on shaped wood, which reflects the artist's penchant for non-traditional surfaces reminiscent of urban textures and forms. Sized at 7-7/8 x 6-1/8 inches, the piece packs a visual punch, asserting its presence through bold coloration and dynamic composition. The central image of the skull, a time-honored emblem of mortality, is rendered with an arresting palette and cartoon-like exaggeration, mirroring the exaggerated realities often portrayed in pop culture. Frost's application of the memento mori theme through this lens highlights the contrast between the playful aspects of pop art and the sobering reminder of mortality that the image traditionally conveys. This juxtaposition is further enhanced by the lively eyes, which seem to animate the inanimate, lending a sense of vitality to the symbol of death. Frost's signature on this work, along with the designation 'HPM' (hand-painted multiple), marks it as a unique variant within a series, emphasizing the artist's direct engagement with each piece. Hand embellishment is significant, as it infuses the artwork with a layer of individuality, distinguishing it from the mass-produced feel that pop art sometimes implies. By doing so, Frost not only nods to the historical practice of artists touching each piece within an edition but also comments on the production and reproduction of images in our media-saturated society. "Memento Mori (White) HPM" stands as a testament to Ben Frost's ability to navigate and reinterpret the cross-sections of pop art and street art. Through his artwork, Frost not only invokes contemplation of our mortality but also critiques how contemporary culture packages and commercializes every aspect of human experience, including death. The artwork is a dialogue between the past and the present, a hand-embellished musing on what it means to be alive in a world where the iconography of death is as stylized and vibrant as the world of the living.
