  • David with Machine Gun Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY x Blek le Rat

    Shepard Fairey- OBEY David with Machine Gun Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY x Blek le Rat

    David with Machine Gun Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY x Blek le Rat Hand-Pulled on Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. 2008 Signed by Shepard Fairey & Blek le Rat, Numbered Limited Edition of 100 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print In 2008, the art world witnessed a unique collaboration between two titans of street and pop art – Shepard Fairey, renowned for his OBEY campaign, and Blek le Rat, often referred to as the "father of stencil graffiti." Both artists, distinct in their style and impact on the urban art scene, decided to come together for a limited edition release that drew attention from collectors and enthusiasts alike. This exceptional partnership resulted in the creation of the " David with Machine Gun" silkscreen print, an artwork that expertly fuses their individual artistic sensibilities. Hand-pulled on fine art paper, the artwork's exclusivity is highlighted by its limited edition – a mere 100 prints, each meticulously signed and numbered by the artists themselves. The piece measures 18x24 inches, making it a substantial representation of their combined artistry. What makes this collaboration even more intriguing is its connection to Blek le Rat's solo exhibition at Subliminal Projects titled "Art is Not Peace." The print is a visual interpretation of Sybille Prou’s photographs of Blek Le Rat's iconic street art. These photographs served as an inspiration, capturing the raw energy and aesthetic of urban art that both artists have dedicated their careers to championing. The blending of Shepard Fairey's graphic style with the subtlety and nuance of Blek le Rat’s stencil work is a testament to the transformative power of collaborative art. It not only speaks volumes about the evolution of street and pop art but also stands as a significant memento of a pivotal moment in contemporary art history.

  • Sale -36% SyndiCats Purrface Art Toy by Mighty Jaxx SyndiCats Purrface Art Toy by Mighty Jaxx

    Mighty Jaxx SyndiCats Purrface Art Toy by Mighty Jaxx

    SyndiCats: Purrface Polystone Sculpture Limited Edition Artwork by Artists at Mighty Jaxx. 2021 New in Box 6" Polystone Art Toy Limited Edition of 300 Polystone Artwork Size 6x6 SyndiCats: Purrface Polystone Sculpture and Its Place in Street Pop Art The SyndiCats: Purrface polystone sculpture is a tangible celebration of the creative confluence of street pop art and contemporary collectible design. This limited-edition artwork, crafted by the skilled artisans at Mighty Jaxx, epitomizes the spirit of innovation at the heart of the urban art toy movement. The Purrface sculpture, a 6-inch polystone art toy, is a sought-after piece, with only 300 pieces available worldwide. It is a coveted item for collectors and enthusiasts of street pop and graffiti artwork. Purrface's narrative is rooted deeply in the lore of urban culture, symbolizing the street-savvy character often celebrated in graffiti artwork. The story of Purrface—a feline figure returning to domestic life after ruling the back alleys—resonates with the classic tales of power and control commonly explored in street art. His reign over the living room, dictating kibble distribution and overseeing the comings and goings, mirrors the territorial tagging of street artists who leave their mark on city walls to signify their presence and influence. Impact of Purrface on Street Pop Art and Collectibles The impact of the Purrface sculpture extends beyond its physical form. As a limited edition piece, it embodies the exclusivity and subversive edge that street pop art is known for. The polystone material used in Purrface's construction allows for a high level of detail and a weighty presence within the art toy community, both literally and figuratively. The piece is not just a static object but a narrative-driven work that engages with ambition, power, and territorial dominance—themes often explored on the larger scale of street pop art and graffiti artwork. Every design element of the Purrface sculpture, from the character's tattoo-like markings to its assertive pose with a violin (suggesting both culture and cunning), reflects the essence of street pop art. The fusion of a domestic cat with the attitude of a street-hardened character provides a commentary on the blending of urban life's roughness with the comfort of modern living. This piece, powered by Forreal, offers an interactive dimension to the collectible, enhancing its appeal and deepening its connection with the digital era's art collectors. The continued popularity and influence of art toys like Purrface indicate a promising future for poly stone sculptures within street pop art. The blend of artistic storytelling with collectible culture ensures that pieces like Purrface remain relevant and integral to the narrative of street art. As artists and designers explore new ways to bring street-inspired narratives into collectors' homes and personal spaces, art toys like Purrface will continue to serve as critical conduits for the messages and aesthetics of street pop art and graffiti artwork. The SyndiCats: Purrface polystone sculpture by Mighty Jaxx significantly represents the intersection between collectible culture and street pop art. With its limited-edition status and compelling backstory, Purrface captures the imagination of art collectors and serves as a bridge between the tangible art of sculpture and the often ephemeral nature of street art. This piece is not merely a static figurine but a representation of the evolving landscape of street art, where stories of power, survival, and ambition are brought to life in new and innovative forms.

    Shepard Fairey- OBEY Chinese Soldier 2 TP AP Test Print Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Chinese Soldier 2 TP Test Print Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled 1-Color on Thin Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. TP AP Artist Test Proof Print 2006 Unsigned. Testing Out The Process From Shepard Faireys Then Workshop. Black Mono Print, Unsigned, No Markings. Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print. TearsBending & Creasing throughout The Margins, Working Artist Copy. Crease Across Lower Right Facing Side. Shepard Fairey's "Chinese Soldier 2 TP Test Print" is a compelling piece that exemplifies the intersection of street art and political commentary, hallmarks of Fairey's work. As an iconic figure in pop and graffiti art, Fairey has long been recognized for his ability to provoke thought and stir public discourse through his art. This particular silkscreen print is a test proof from 2006, emanating from the artist's experimentation with printmaking techniques. Hand-pulled and comprising five colors on thin art paper, this limited edition artwork carries the signature visual style of Fairey's Obey series, which commands attention to the themes of propaganda, control, and societal obedience. The print, depicting a Chinese soldier with a flower protruding from the barrel of his rifle, challenges viewers to question the juxtaposition of military power with peace—a dichotomy often explored in anti-war art and literature. The raw and unrefined nature of this test print adds to its authenticity and makes it a unique collector's piece, especially considering it is a black mono print and is unsigned, with no markings. The lack of signature is particularly notable as it speaks to the essence of street art, where the message often takes precedence over the artist's identity. Measuring 18x24 inches, this print is sizable, allowing for an immersive viewing experience that draws the eye to the stark contrasts and the compelling imagery that has become synonymous with Fairey's work. Fairey's influence on street art extends beyond his visual work; his methods and approach have inspiremanyof artists to see the urban landscape as a canvas for commentary and change. His test prints, such as "Chinese Soldier 2," offer a glimpse into his process and an understanding of the experimentation behind his finished pieces. This artwork, while a test piece, stands alone in its powerful message and aesthetic, encapsulating the energy and defiance of street art culture.

  • Art in Action JR Archival Print by Jeff Gillette

    Jeff Gillette Art in Action JR Archival Print by Jeff Gillette

    Art in Action- JR Limited Edition Archival Pigment Fine Art Prints on 290gsm Moab Entrada Fine Art Paper by Graffiti Street Art and Pop Culture Artist Jeff Gillette. 2022 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 100 Artwork Size 16x20 Archival Pigment Print "Art in Action - JR" emerges as a striking limited edition piece by Jeff Gillette, an artist whose work often converges at the crossroads of graffiti, street art, and pop culture. This artwork was brought to life in 2022, comprising a series limited to a mere hundred signed and numbered prints, accentuating its exclusivity and allure among collectors. Each piece measures 16x20 inches and is rendered on 290gsm Moab Entrada fine art paper using archival pigment prints, a medium well-regarded for its longevity and color fidelity. Gillette's artwork is a dialogue of contrasts and a satire of contemporary society, entwining the rebellious spirit of street art with the aesthetic precision of fine art prints. In "Art in Action - JR," the artist juxtaposes imagery of militaristic figures with a splash of red pigment, a powerful visual metaphor for the intersection of violence and artistic creation. The use of such a symbolically charged color against the stark monochrome figures invites contemplation on the role of art in protest and the socio-political commentary that has long been the bedrock of street art. Gillette, known for his thought-provoking representations of dystopian landscapes littered with pop culture references, here focuses on the act of creation itself. The piece seems to suggest that art can be as impactful as any act of resistance, with the power to ignite change or provoke discourse. Through the visual narrative of "Art in Action - JR," he successfully captures the essence of art's place in society – as a tool for reflection, a weapon against complacency, and a mirror to the tumultuous world it inhabits. This work stands as a testament to Gillette's keen ability to fuse the subversive energy of street art with the enduring qualities of fine art, ensuring that the message inherent in "Art in Action - JR" endures. It is an exemplar within the field of pop art, wherein the artist has melded his critical eye with his adept craftsmanship to create a piece that is as intellectually challenging as it is visually arresting.

  • Four-Four Biggie AP Silkscreen Print by Mark Drew

Marked Limited Edition Run Artwork Size 11.42.x16.54 The Fusion of Hip-Hop and Comics in Mark Drew's Silkscreen Print The "Four-Four Biggie" silkscreen print by Mark Drew epitomizes the intriguing blend of street culture and pop art sensibilities. This Artist Proof hand-pulled screen print on fine art paper is a striking example of Drew's limited edition work that seamlessly merges iconic images from classic American comics with lyrics from seminal 90s hip-hop tracks. The piece, marked as an Artist Proof from 2013 and signed by Drew, is a highly collectible item within Pop Street Artwork and Graffiti, representing a limited edition run with 11.42 x 16.54 inches. In this artwork, Drew pulls a quote from The Notorious B.I.G.'s "Kick in the Door," juxtaposing it with the innocence of a cartoon character. This stark contrast is symbolic of his style, which often explores the relationship between childhood imagery nostalgia and hip-hop culture's more grown-up themes. The result is a layered piece that speaks to the complexities of memory, cultural identity, and the passage of time. Artistic Significance of Screen Printing in Street Pop Art Screen printing has a storied history within pop, and street art is celebrated for its ability to reproduce vivid colors and crisp graphics. Drew's adoption of this technique for "Four-Four Biggie" allows for the precision and clarity needed to bring together the boldness of hip-hop lyricism with the simplicity of comic strip art. Hand-pulling each print ensures that every piece is unique, adding individuality to the work collectors and admirers of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork often seek. Artist Proofs, like the one Drew has created for "Four-Four Biggie," are traditionally the first prints pulled from a new screen, used to check the quality of the print before the complete edition is run. They are often kept by the artists themselves, making them rarer and highly prized than the edition prints. The A.P. mark on this print indicates its status as proof, and Mark Drew's signature certifies its authenticity, increasing the artwork's value and desirability. Impact of Mark Drew's Work on Contemporary Art Mark Drew's influence on the contemporary art scene is evident in how his work resonates with audiences. His ability to draw from various elements of urban culture and synthesize them into something new and compelling places him among the innovators in the field. The "Four-Four Biggie" print is a testament to his creative vision, where the past and present collide to create a dialogue that is as relevant today as when the song lyrics were first penned. The appeal of Drew's work lies in its accessibility and its depth. The familiar images draw viewers in, and they are challenged to delve deeper into the meaning behind the juxtaposition of text and image. This characteristic of Drew's art aligns with the broader goals of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork: to engage the public in a visual conversation that is both entertaining and thought-provoking. Through pieces like "Four-Four Biggie," Drew continues contributing to this vibrant and ever-evolving art form.

    Sedation of Millions AP Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Artist Proof Hand-Pulled Screen Print on Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. AP Artist Proof 2012 Signed & AP Marked Original Run Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print of Number 3 in A Gun Target Retnial With Phrase "IT TAKES THE SEDATION OF MILLIONS TO HOLD US BACK." "The "Sedation Of Millions" print is inspired by the title of my favorite Public Enemy album, "It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back." I think the biggest problem in America is the indifference and complacency about important issues that result from much of the population being perpetually hypnotized by conspicuous consumption, social media, entertainment, and self-medication. Using sedation and escapism for relief from the rat race might make us less aware(blissfully ignorant) but also less empowered to improve our role within the rat race… a vicious cycle of cause and effect." -Shepard Fairey The "Millions AP" silkscreen print by Shepard Fairey stands as a profound commentary on contemporary society through the lens of street pop art and graffiti artwork. As an Artist Proof from 2012, signed and marked by Fairey himself, this limited edition piece presents a powerful visual fused with a direct message characteristic of Fairey's thought-provoking style. Sized at 18x24, the print features the image of a gun target retinal, the number 3 prominently placed at its center, overlaid with the bold phrase "IT TAKES THE SEDATION OF MILLIONS TO HOLD US BACK." This artwork resonates with Fairey's ongoing exploration of control, power, and propaganda. The title and the thematic content pay homage to Public Enemy's album "It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back," channeling the spirit of resistance and the power of voice emblematic of the influential hip-hop group. Fairey's work challenges the viewer to consider the societal implications of complacency and the sedative effects of consumer culture, social media, and entertainment that contribute to a collective indifference toward critical issues. Shepard Fairey, renowned for his OBEY campaign and the iconic Obama "Hope" poster, consistently blurs the lines between fine art and street art, bringing forth discussions that encapsulate the ethos of both genres. The "Millions AP" silkscreen print serves not just as a piece of art but as a call to consciousness, urging a break from the "blissful ignorance" induced by escapism and advocating for empowerment through awareness and action. This work is a visual manifestation of Fairey's critique on the cyclical nature of societal sedation and the importance of awakening from it to enact change within the systems that govern daily life. In the broader scope of street pop art and graffiti, Fairey's "Millions AP" print encapsulates the essence of the medium's capacity to reflect and impact cultural dialogue. It is a testament to the potential of visual art as a medium for social commentary and a marker of the time in which it was created.

    Forbidden Forever HPM Acrylic Silkscreen Print by Faile Screen Print on Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. 2007 Signed & Numbered Acrylic HPM Embellished Limited Edition of 15 Artwork Size 17.9x24 Faile is a Brooklyn-based artistic collaboration between Patrick McNeil (born 1975) and Patrick Miller (born 1976). Initially founded in 1999, the duo is known for their wide-ranging multimedia practice, recognized for its explorations of duality through a fragmented style of appropriation and collage. Working in the vein of popular culture and frequently referencing mass consumerism, Faile's work encompasses a variety of materials and techniques, including painting, silkscreening, stencils, stickers, sculpture, and more. Their art has been exhibited in a wide array of contexts, from city walls and lamp posts to galleries and museums around the world, such as Perry Rubenstein Gallery, New York; Dallas Contemporary, Dallas; and Palais de Tokyo, Paris. The name "Faile" is an anagram of "A life", which signifies the duo's shared philosophy towards their work. They are known to embrace the dichotomies of art and popular culture, acknowledging the fluidity and ubiquity of imagery in the modern world. HPM, or Hand-Painted Multiples, is a term used to describe a specific method of silkscreen printing. In HPM silkscreen printing, each piece of an edition is individually embellished or altered by the artist, thereby making each print within the edition unique. This technique can often be seen in street art and other forms of contemporary art. Silkscreen printing, also known as screen printing, is a process that involves pushing ink through a stenciled mesh screen to create a printed design. It's a popular technique used in a variety of different industries, such as fine art, fashion, and marketing, due to its versatility in adapting to different materials and surfaces. Artists like Faile often utilize HPM silkscreen printing to create limited editions of their work. This method allows them to produce a series of pieces that maintain a consistent theme or image, but with individual variations that make each piece unique. This can range from changes in color, to additional elements, to hand-finishing details. This results in each print being not just a copy, but a unique work of art.

Black & White Graffiti Street Pop Artwork

Contrast and Culture: Black & White in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork

Defining Visual Language with Black & White

In the visually saturated world of street pop art and graffiti, the use of black and white stands out for its stark simplicity and profound impact. These foundational colors form a visual language that is classic and contemporary, shaping the narrative of urban landscapes. Artists have long utilized the striking contrast between black and white to convey complex messages, create dramatic visuals, and draw viewers into a dialogue that transcends the need for color.

Black & White: Aesthetic Choices with Purpose

The aesthetic choice to use black and white in street pop art and graffiti is not merely a stylistic one; it is often laden with purpose. Black and white can symbolize the binary oppositions of life, such as light and dark, day and night, or the dualities within society and the self. In street pop art, this dichotomy can reflect the artist's commentary on social issues, personal identity, or cultural narratives. The absence of color forces the viewer to focus on the subject, the form, and the subtleties of shade and tone that might otherwise be overlooked.

Technique and Texture in Monochromatic Art

Technically, working with black and white requires mastery over shade, tone, and texture. Artists manipulate these elements to create depth and dimension without relying on the crutch of color. The interplay of light and shadow becomes critical, with the gradations between pure black and pure white providing a spectrum of grays that add complexity to the pieces. Texturally, black and white can range from the smooth, clean lines of precise stenciling to the rough, expressive strokes of freehand spray painting.

Cultural Symbolism in Black & White Artwork

Culturally, black and white artwork carries a timeless symbolism. In the context of street pop art and graffiti, it can represent the raw, unfiltered expression stripped of the distractions of color. This monochromatic scheme is often associated with the past, invoking a sense of nostalgia while simultaneously being seen as modern and forward-thinking. The simplicity of black and white allows for universality in the artwork, enabling it to cross cultural and socioeconomic boundaries.

Composition and Clarity in Urban Canvases

Compositionally, black and white provide clarity and focus in an urban canvas cluttered with competing stimuli. Artists use these colors to direct attention, emphasize details, and balance the visual weight within their artwork. The starkness of black against white creates a visual punch that can make even the most subtle designs stand out. In large-scale murals, this contrast can create a visual anchor, drawing the community's attention and often becoming a landmark within the neighborhood. 

Black & White in the Evolution of Street Art

As street art evolves, the role of black and white remains central. These colors have been used historically in photography and film to convey a stripped-down reality, and street artists have adopted this tradition to cut through the city's noise. Black and white also have a practical advantage; they are often more resistant to fading and weathering, ensuring the longevity of the artwork. This durability makes black and white a suitable choice for artists who want their work to endure in the public space. In the vibrant realms of street pop art and graffiti, black and white are more than mere colors—they are tools for visual storytelling, emotional impact, and symbols for cultural commentary. The use of black and white challenges artists to explore the essentials of form, composition, and contrast, creating artwork that has the power to engage, provoke, and inspire across generations and geographies. In the monochromatic shades of black and white, the urban canvas finds its voice, and the streets become a gallery of human experience, etched in the most fundamental palettes.
