Untitled Pointman & Vick Silkscreen Print by Verdy x Futura 2000- Leonard McGurr Hand-Pulled on Deckled Mohawk Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Screenprint Artwork. 2025 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 40 Artwork Size 18x24  Silkscreen Print Stylized Vick Panda Rabbit holding a Pointman Sci Fi Creature in Red, Black & White. Verdy x Futura 2000: A Dynamic Dialogue in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork The 2025 limited edition silkscreen print titled Untitled Pointman & Vick is a highly collectible collaboration between two titans of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork—Verdy and Leonard McGurr, also known as Futura 2000. This hand-pulled 18x24 inch artwork, limited to only 40 signed and numbered editions, brings together two iconic characters born from very different visual traditions: Verdy’s Vick, a panda-rabbit hybrid pulsing with urban cuteness and punk energy, and Futura’s Pointman, an angular, sci-fi inspired alien form that has long represented the artist’s abstract evolution of graffiti since the 1980s. The synergy of these two figures positioned together on a stark white canvas creates a striking and unmistakable visual statement. Character Fusion: From Tokyo Subculture to NYC Futurism Verdy’s Vick, a staple of Japanese youth culture and streetwear, is rendered with bold lines, minimalism, and emotional defiance. Often seen in his works tied to Girls Don’t Cry and Wasted Youth, the Vick figure represents innocence crossed with resistance, captured here with expressive posture and his recognizable spiked hair and long ears. In this piece, Vick stands confidently while clutching Futura’s Pointman—a creature that has become emblematic of space-age graffiti abstraction. The Pointman figure, often portrayed as detached and observing, now appears anthropomorphized yet held in a position of connection, suggesting creative control, reverence, or even confrontation. Leonard McGurr, born in the United States, redefined graffiti art with his experimental use of shapes, negative space, and conceptual narrative. His Pointman character broke away from traditional lettering and tags, opting instead for a visual language that combined comic book energy, cosmic theory, and social metaphor. This character now enters Verdy’s minimalist playground, blurring lines between eras and aesthetics. Minimalist Form with Maximum Impact Printed in red, black, and white, the silkscreen’s visual economy amplifies the tension and harmony between the two characters. The limited palette makes the composition pop with clarity, a visual nod to both vintage animation and punk zine graphics. Each line is deliberate. Each shape speaks volumes. The exaggerated proportions and surreal character styling are a testament to both artists’ skill in balancing humor, symbolism, and subculture in visual form. The work functions as a mirror of mutual respect between two worlds—Verdy’s Japanese design-driven storytelling and Futura’s American avant-garde rebellion. A Collectible Print for the Global Art Vanguard As a signed and numbered edition of just 40, this 18x24 inch silkscreen print is a rare artifact that ties two global artistic forces into a single unified piece. It represents more than just collaboration—it embodies cross-generational momentum in street pop and graffiti art. Fans and collectors of either artist will immediately recognize the cultural and historical significance embedded in the composition. Verdy and Futura 2000 have together constructed a moment that celebrates character-based iconography as legitimate, emotional, and deeply impactful contemporary art. This print is not just a visual work—it is a document of two worlds shaking hands through their art.

Outlook Not So Good Archival Print by Luke Chueh Limited Edition on MEDIUM Pop Graffiti Street Artist Modern Artwork. 2025 Signed & Numbered Print Limited Edition of 75 Artwork Size 18x22 Archival Pigment Fine Art of White Bear Looking at Magic 8-Ball. Street Pop Art Melancholy Through Minimalist Icons Outlook Not So Good by Luke Chueh is a masterful example of contemporary Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, offering a deeply personal yet universally relatable image. Printed in a 2025 signed and numbered limited edition of 75, this archival pigment fine art print is sized at 18 by 22 inches. It depicts Chueh’s iconic white bear character solemnly studying a black Magic 8-Ball with the phrase “Outlook Not So Good” hovering in stark white text above. The expressionless character holds the ball as if searching for clarity or resolution, yet is met with uncertainty—an artistic metaphor captured with elegant precision. Luke Chueh's Style and Symbolism Luke Chueh, a painter based in Los Angeles, United States, has garnered widespread acclaim for his ability to blend personal anguish with the visual simplicity of pop culture. His work combines the aesthetics of soft, emotive cartoon-like figures with raw psychological depth. The white bear has become his signature—a blank-faced vessel often depicted in emotionally charged or surreal scenarios. The use of the Magic 8-Ball, a familiar consumer object associated with chance and fate, adds a layer of cultural iconography to the work that resonates with modern uncertainty and introspection. The stark contrast between the deep blue background and the desaturated tones of the bear and the black ball underscores the emotional gravity of the piece. Contextual Placement in Modern Street Pop Art As Street Pop Art continues to evolve, artists like Luke Chueh are crucial in pushing its emotional boundaries. While many works in the genre favor overt rebellion, satire, or vibrant chaos, Chueh’s aesthetic embraces quietness, vulnerability, and psychological honesty. Outlook Not So Good joins the ranks of impactful visual statements that use simplicity and metaphor to articulate a generational sense of alienation, frustration, or existential contemplation. Chueh’s style fits seamlessly into both gallery walls and street culture, bridging fine art and urban voice with seamless integration. The print echoes the tension between internal struggle and outward stillness—traits seen in some of the best-known graffiti and post-pop works of the last two decades. Medium, Format, and Collector Relevance Produced on archival-quality pigment paper, this edition maintains a museum-standard level of fidelity and longevity. The richness of the tones, paired with the smooth gradients that define Chueh’s hand-rendered brushstrokes, are fully preserved in this medium. The 18x22 format provides a commanding wall presence without overwhelming, making it suitable for personal collections focused on urban art, contemporary pop narrative, and emotionally driven minimalism. As a signed edition of only 75, it also holds significant collector value, particularly for enthusiasts of Chueh’s body of work and modern graffiti-based emotional iconography. Outlook Not So Good stands as a meaningful entry in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, reflecting the quiet storms many people navigate behind composed faces and familiar symbols. Luke Chueh’s ability to mine emotion from minimal composition once again delivers a timeless work with enduring impact.

Lowbrow- And Still The Loser Artwork Limited Edition Giclee Print on 290gsm Moab Entrada Paper by Modern Artist Luke Chueh. 2011 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 50 Artwork Size 18x24 "Lowbrow - And Still The Loser" by Luke Chueh is a distinctive piece within the pop art genre, where every day is imbued with layers of deeper meaning. This artwork, a giclee print on 290gsm Moab Entrada paper, holds its own in the discourse of street art and graffiti art through its evocative representation of common sentiments. Created in 2011, the piece was offered as a signed and numbered limited edition, with only 50 prints available, each measuring 18x24 inches, signifying its exclusivity and collectibility. The artwork features Chueh's trademark character, a bear, depicted in monochrome against a stark background. The figure's action is central to the artwork's narrative: a loser's salute, which, in the context of Chueh's oeuvre, could be interpreted as a commentary on self-acceptance in the face of defeat or societal judgment. The term "lowbrow" boldly interrupts the visual, acting as a self-referential nod to the lowbrow art movement and an ironic statement about the bear's self-deprecation. This print continues Luke Chueh's exploration of the juxtaposition between the innocence of cartoon characters and the complexity of human emotions, a theme prevalent in street art's storytelling. Chueh's work is often recognized for its emotional rawness, encapsulated within the accessible form of animated figures. "Lowbrow - And Still The Loser" is particularly resonant in its straightforwardness, reflecting the artist's capacity to communicate profound experiences through simple, relatable imagery. The choice of Moab Entrada paper, known for its archival quality, suggests a purposeful intention to preserve the depth of the black and white tones, ensuring that each collector receives a piece that remains true to the visual impact of the original artwork. The limited edition nature of this print elevates its value among collectors and enthusiasts, who view Chueh's work as a bridge between the often disparate worlds of pop art and street art. Here, the emotional language of graffiti, the visual punch of pop art, and the introspection of the lowbrow movement merge to form a statement piece that challenges viewers to find meaning in the guise of simplicity.
