    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 Shepard Fairey x Blek le Rat David with Machine Gun Silkscreen Print 2008 The 2008 David with Machine Gun silkscreen print is a collaborative edition created by Shepard Fairey, known as OBEY, and French stencil art pioneer Blek le Rat. Hand-pulled on fine art paper and produced in a signed and numbered edition of 100, this 18 x 24 inch print merges the strengths of two iconic street artists across generations. Both signatures on each print elevate it to an important collector’s piece within Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, highlighting not only a striking image but also the historical significance of the collaboration itself. Imagery and Commentary The print features a reinterpretation of Michelangelo’s classical sculpture David, here transformed into a provocative figure holding a machine gun. The juxtaposition of the Renaissance ideal of human beauty and form with the stark brutality of a modern weapon serves as a sharp critique of war, violence, and the distortion of cultural ideals. By placing David in a gritty, graffiti-covered urban environment, the work questions how art and society repurpose historic symbols to address contemporary anxieties. This powerful reimagining reflects both Blek le Rat’s tradition of stencil interventions in public spaces and Shepard Fairey’s skill at repurposing cultural icons into tools for social commentary. Collaborative Significance Blek le Rat, born Xavier Prou in France in 1951, is celebrated as one of the earliest and most influential stencil graffiti artists. Shepard Fairey, born in Charleston, South Carolina in 1970, became internationally known for his OBEY campaign and his later political works, including the Barack Obama Hope poster. Together, they bridge the early roots of European stencil art with the graphic and politically driven evolution of American street pop art. Their joint works, such as David with Machine Gun, serve as cultural dialogues between two eras, reinforcing the continuity of street art as a platform for protest and public discourse. Political Resonance and Collector Value David with Machine Gun functions as a visual protest, reworking an image of purity, youth, and beauty into a statement about the corruption of ideals through militarization and violence. The collaboration underscores both artists’ shared commitment to making politically engaged art accessible to broad audiences. With its limited edition of only 100, dual signatures, and thematic strength, the print has become a significant and sought-after work for collectors. It captures the way Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork can take familiar imagery and transform it into a searing critique of the modern world, cementing its role as both cultural artifact and fine art object.

    Shepard Fairey- OBEY Black Sabbath Silver Black Crescent Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Black Sabbath Silver Black Crescent Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. 2013 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 125 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print of Metal Roc n' Roll Music Band Black Sabbath Featuring Ozzy Osbourne. "Black Sabbath has been one of my favorite bands for 25 years. I was fortunate to meet Jack Osbourne through my friend Big Dave in 2000. My relationship with Jack and Big Dave has led to several great Ozzy and Sabbath projects. One of my biggest “I’m not worthy!” moments occurred when Dave took me backstage to meet the Sabbath guys in 2004 at Ozzfest, and bassist and lyricist Geezer Butler was wearing an Obey shirt! Sabbath is still a phenomenal live band, and I’m incredibly honored to do my second(the first was in 2005) Sabbath/Obey tour poster. Sabbath released a great new record called “13” recently(produced by Rick Rubin) and are touring in support of the album." -Shepard Fairey- OBEY. Shepard Fairey's Interpretation of Black Sabbath's Legacy In 2013, Fairey, inspired by Black Sabbath's influence on his life and art, created a limited edition silkscreen print to commemorate the band's U.S.A. tour. This signed and numbered edition, limited to 125 pieces and sized at 18x24 inches, became an emblem of Black Sabbath's enduring impact on rock music and a collectible piece of street pop art. The artwork, hand-pulled on cream speckletone fine art paper, features iconic Black Sabbath symbols, such as the cross and the winged disc, alongside Fairey's signature style, which often includes elements like the star and the stylized imagery of the eye. The fusion of street pop art with music often manifests in gig posters, a medium that Shepard Fairey, known widely for his OBEY brand, has mastered with a distinctive style that resonates deeply within the pop culture landscape. His work for the iconic metal rock n' roll music band Black Sabbath, particularly the silver and black crescent silkscreen print, encapsulates the essence of the artist's and the band's legacies. The significance of Fairey's Black Sabbath artwork lies in its ability to bridge music's auditory experience with art's visual stimulus. The print does not merely represent the band; it evokes the rebellious spirit of Black Sabbath's music, the dark and mystical themes they explore, and the cultural movement they spearheaded within the heavy metal genre. Fairey's artistic trademarks, such as the word 'obey,' infuses the piece with a sense of authority and provocation that complements the band's ethos. Collectibility and Influence in the Art World Fairey's anecdote about meeting the band and finding Geezer Butler wearing an OBEY shirt is a testament to the reciprocal influence between artist and musician. It underlines how street pop art and music often come full circle, with artists influencing musicians and vice versa. The print is a celebration of the band's return with the album "13" and a nod to the historical relationship between the artist and Black Sabbath. It is this narrative that imbues the artwork with a personal touch, making it a profound statement within the realms of both pop culture and street art. As a collectible, the Black Sabbath silkscreen print by Shepard Fairey stands at the intersection of music memorabilia and fine art. Its scarcity and the reputation of its creator heighten its value not only in monetary terms but also as a cultural artifact. Collectors and fans seek such pieces for their aesthetic appeal and their ability to capture a moment in history, a period where music and street pop art intertwine to create a tangible representation of a musical era. In the broader spectrum of street pop art and graffiti artwork, Shepard Fairey's Black Sabbath print represents the genre's potential to transcend the streets and enter into the world of high art and collector's items. The piece, with its intricate design work and deep cultural connections, stands as a testament to the power of visual art to celebrate and immortalize the spirit of music.

    Where The Hose M30 Hand Embellished HPM Giclee Print by OG Slick Artwork Limited Edition Print on Deckled 310gsm Fine Art Paper Hand Embellished Print Graffiti Pop Street Artist. 2025 Signed & Numbered HPM Hand Embellished by OG Slick Giclee & Spray Paint Limited Edition of 25 Artwork Size 30x30 HPM Hand Embellished Giclee Print. Splatter pattern, strokes and paint color to hand embellish varies. EVERY HPM IS UNIQUE. YOU MAY NOT RECEIVE THE ONE IN THE PHOTO, CHOSEN AT RANDOM. Where The Hose M30 by OG Slick: Urban Commentary and Graffiti Wit in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Where The Hose M30 is a 2025 hand-embellished giclee print by OG Slick, presented in a limited edition of 25. Each 30x30 inch print is produced on 310gsm deckled fine art paper, signed and numbered by the artist, and uniquely hand-finished using spray paint and various graffiti techniques. The central subject is a fire hydrant—painted, stickered, and transformed—set against a stark background, with the hand-scrawled question Where the hose at? hovering above in playful red script. The image merges cheeky wordplay with street realism, combining slick visual execution and raw cultural irreverence. Every HPM version differs, each featuring its own variation of paint splatter, spray application, and embellishment marks, reinforcing the individuality and rebellious spontaneity embedded in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. Symbolism, Humor, and Street-Level Critique The fire hydrant in Where The Hose M30 is rendered with a gritty aesthetic, adorned in layers of graffiti, tags, and stickers including OG Slick’s signature Japanese text, cartoon gloves, and pop references. These decals give the hydrant the look of a public object long claimed by urban artists. The playful title scrawled above evokes both literal and slang meanings, inviting multiple interpretations—part street joke, part cultural commentary. Whether read as a nod to graffiti beefs, territorial markings, or masculine bravado, the question itself is as much a provocation as it is a punchline. Some variants in the edition feature bursting spray streams, others are overlaid with bold magenta or buffed whiteout gestures, each echoing the transient, ever-changing nature of city surfaces and graffiti culture. Within Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, OG Slick uses this hydrant not only as a subject but as a symbol of pressure, release, and public infrastructure hijacked by personal voice. OG Slick’s Artistic Practice and Visual Language OG Slick, a fixture of Los Angeles graffiti culture since the 1980s, is renowned for remixing commercial and municipal iconography through a filter of street aesthetics and satirical wit. His work blends cartoon-based visual familiarity with hardcoded graffiti influence, often embedding commentary on fame, ownership, and identity. In Where The Hose M30, he recontextualizes the mundane—turning a utilitarian fire hydrant into a sculptural character that carries attitude, history, and street-coded meaning. By layering his personal motifs over a public object, Slick continues his career-long tradition of turning the overlooked into a bold visual narrative. His attention to detail in both form and wordplay makes this piece an extension of the graffiti wall, a flat surface alive with attitude, cultural shorthand, and layered contradiction. Edition Variation and Urban Artifact Value As with all HPM releases by OG Slick, each copy of Where The Hose M30 is one of a kind. While the base giclee ensures fidelity to the original digital layout, the embellishments disrupt that uniformity, introducing chaos, imperfection, and hand-executed energy. Some prints are saturated in pink or buffed out with white spray, while others are activated with directional burst marks and smudges of black ink. These choices give each collector a unique relationship to the piece, similar to how different graffiti tags evolve across the city depending on who sees them, alters them, or covers them. OG Slick captures that energy in a fixed format that still feels in flux. The deckled paper adds a tactile frame to the work, reinforcing its status as both high art and cultural subversion. In Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, Where The Hose M30 stands as a sharply humorous yet technically refined work that reclaims public visual space and retools it with attitude, commentary, and urban soul.

Directed by Aaron Rose and co-directed by Joshua Leonard, this film was a product of Sidetrack Films and BlackLake Productions, featuring artists like Harmony Korine and Steve "ESPO" Powers. The film explores the "do-it-yourself" ethos of these artists, whose work is steeped in the aesthetics of skateboarding, graffiti, and underground music genres such as punk rock and hip-hop. It casts a light on the journey of these artists from obscure street culture to becoming celebrated figures within the mainstream art world, detailing their personal feelings and convictions as they transitioned from creating for themselves to working on high-profile commercial projects. "Beautiful Losers" is more than a film; it is part of a more significant cultural phenomenon that includes a published art book of the same name, edited by Christian Strike and Aaron Rose, and a traveling museum exhibition that features the artists and their works. This exhibition serves both as a backdrop and a focus in the documentary, emphasizing the expansive influence of these artists and their continued relevance in contemporary art discourse.

This first edition is a collector's gem encased in a satisfactory condition hardback with a sleeve. The book's red cloth boards are embossed with gilt lettering on the front and spine, signaling the treasure within a profusion of illustrations and original works. This is no mere collection; it is a profound narrative detailing a cultural movement's organic, uncontrived emergence. It charts the journey of American artists, many freshly stepping into adulthood, who were propelled not by market demands but by pure passion and creativity. Without formal training or insider knowledge, they drew inspiration from the streets, influenced by the raw vitality of skateboarding, graffiti, street fashion, and independent music. Names like Shepard Fairey, Mark Gonzales, and Spike Jonze are among the many who channeled their lived experiences into their craft, learning through doing and revolutionizing their mediums. Beautiful Losers serves as both a tribute and a historical account, tracing the cultural threads from Jean-Michel Basquiat and Keith Haring to newer proponents such as Ryan McGinniss and KAWS. It features various artistic expressions across mediums, alongside reproductions of ephemera that encapsulate the era's spirit. The book is further enriched by essays from writers who have fervently supported these artists from their inception. It's not just an art book; it's an archive of a movement that left indelible marks on the art world and fashion, music, literature, film, and even athletics. The independent ethos these creators embodied may have evolved, yet their foundational spirit—a spirit of rebellion, innovation, and authenticity—remains unshaken. Beautiful Losers is a celebration of that enduring spirit, an invitation to witness the beauty in the raw, the unrefined, and the real.

  • Sale -10% David with Machine Gun Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY x Blek le Rat

    David with Machine Gun AP Artist Proof Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY x Blek le Rat Hand-Pulled on Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. AP Artist Proof 2008 Signed by Shepard Fairey & Blek le Rat & Marked AP, Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print. Shepard Fairey x Blek le Rat David with Machine Gun AP Silkscreen Print 2008 The David with Machine Gun AP Artist Proof silkscreen print from 2008 is a rare collaborative work created by Shepard Fairey, widely known as OBEY, and stencil art pioneer Blek le Rat. Hand-pulled on fine art paper and measuring 18 x 24 inches, this Artist Proof edition is signed by both artists and marked “AP,” distinguishing it from the standard numbered release of 100. Artist Proofs carry additional significance within the art world due to their limited availability and direct association with the artists’ approval process, making this piece especially sought after by collectors of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. Imagery and Symbolic Tension This print features Michelangelo’s classical David, a symbol of Renaissance ideals of beauty, youth, and heroism, reimagined with a modern twist: he holds a machine gun. The stark juxtaposition between timeless humanist ideals and contemporary instruments of war creates a powerful critique of violence and the ways cultural icons are repurposed to reflect current anxieties. Set against a graffiti-covered urban backdrop, the figure embodies the collision between high art traditions and street-level social commentary. The work challenges viewers to consider how ideals of strength and beauty are corrupted when reframed within the context of militarization. Collaboration Across Generations Blek le Rat, born Xavier Prou in France in 1951, is often credited as the father of stencil graffiti, influencing countless artists with his Paris-based interventions since the 1980s. Shepard Fairey, born in 1970 in Charleston, South Carolina, rose to prominence through his OBEY campaign and politically resonant prints, later achieving international acclaim with his Hope poster of Barack Obama. Their joint creation of David with Machine Gun demonstrates how two generations of artists from different cultural backgrounds can merge their practices to create a unified message. It serves as both homage to classical art and a critique of the modern world. Rarity and Collectible Importance Artist Proof editions such as this one are rarer than the main run, typically reserved for the artists themselves or for key collaborators. Marked “AP” and carrying the signatures of both Fairey and Blek le Rat, this print embodies both historical and artistic value. Beyond its scarcity, the work is a striking representation of how street artists reinterpret cultural symbols to confront pressing issues like war and societal decay. The David with Machine Gun AP silkscreen stands as a prime example of the fusion of fine art history and modern protest through the visual language of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork.

    Love Catcher Pink Silkscreen Print by Mr Brainwash- Thierry Guetta Hand-Pulled 6-Color on Hand Deckled Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. 2023 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 75 Artwork Size 22x22 Silkscreen Print by Mr Brainwash- Thierry Guetta Mr. Brainwash, whose real name is Thierry Guetta, is a French-born, Los Angeles-based street artist and filmmaker. He was born on November 11, 1966, in Garges-lès-Gonesse, France. Mr. Brainwash came to prominence through the 2010 Oscar-nominated documentary "Exit Through the Gift Shop", which was directed by the renowned British street artist Banksy. Initially, Guetta began as a videographer who was interested in street art and decided to document the phenomenon. This endeavor led him to meet and film numerous street artists, including Shepard Fairey and Banksy. However, in a surprising twist, Banksy turned the camera on Guetta, encouraging him to become an artist himself. The result was Mr. Brainwash, a pop artist known for his large-scale productions and eclectic style, drawing heavily from pop culture references and the work of other street artists. His work often blends elements of pop art with the raw, edgy aesthetics of street art. Since his emergence, Mr. Brainwash has held numerous exhibitions and his work has gained significant attention in the art world, both for its bold, distinctive style and for the controversy surrounding his sudden rise to fame. He is known for his energetic and often humorous installations, sculptures, and stenciled artworks. Despite criticism from some quarters who view his work as derivative, Mr. Brainwash has continued to maintain a successful career in the contemporary art scene. Mother's Day is a celebration that honors mothers and motherhood, maternal bonds, and the influence of mothers in society. It is celebrated on various days in many parts of the world, most commonly in the months of March or May. The modern American holiday of Mother's Day was first celebrated in 1908, when Anna Jarvis held a memorial for her mother at St Andrew's Methodist Church in Grafton, West Virginia. Anna Jarvis's mother, Ann Jarvis, had been a peace activist who cared for wounded soldiers on both sides of the American Civil War, and created Mother's Day Work Clubs to address public health issues. Anna Jarvis wanted to honor her mother by continuing the work she started and to set aside a day to honor all mothers because she believed that they were "the person who has done more for you than anyone in the world". In 1914, Woodrow Wilson signed a proclamation designating Mother's Day, held on the second Sunday in May, as a national holiday to honor mothers. Since then, Mother's Day has become a day that children celebrate their mothers with cards, gifts, and activities. The holiday has been adopted by other countries and it's celebrated in different ways worldwide. For example, in the United Kingdom, it is traditionally known as Mothering Sunday and it's celebrated on the fourth Sunday of Lent. In Mexico, it's always celebrated on May 10th, regardless of the day of the week. It's important to note that Mother's Day can bring different feelings for different people. While it's a joyous occasion for many, it can be a difficult day for those who have lost their mothers or who have strained relationships with them. It's also a day to honor and remember mothers who have passed away.

As an Artist Proof, it holds particular value among collectors of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, symbolizing both artistic experimentation and the direct approval of the creators. Imagery and Urban Context The composition combines stark stencil work with a heavily graffitied wall, embedding the artwork within the raw energy of urban life. At the center, a suited man carries bags labeled with text, positioned alongside a goat, while a police officer passes in the foreground. To the right, a telephone booth punctuates the scene, grounding the work in the everyday architecture of the city. The layering of graffiti tags, political scrawls, and the surreal juxtaposition of figures evoke themes of consumerism, authority, and rebellion. The suited figure in particular hints at urban alienation, while the presence of the goat and booth adds absurdity, making the composition at once humorous and sharply critical. Collaboration Between Shepard Fairey and Blek le Rat Blek le Rat, born Xavier Prou in 1951 in France, is widely credited as the father of stencil graffiti, bringing social commentary directly into the streets of Paris beginning in the 1980s. Shepard Fairey, born in 1970 in Charleston, South Carolina, built his reputation through his OBEY sticker campaign and politically engaged prints, including the Hope poster of Barack Obama. Their collaborative works, such as The Man Who Walks Through Walls, highlight a shared belief in the role of public art as a platform for protest and dialogue. The merging of Fairey’s graphic sensibilities with Blek’s direct stencil approach emphasizes the continuity between two generations of politically minded street artists. Rarity and Significance of the Artist Proof The Artist Proof edition carries special weight within the print world, typically produced in very small quantities and often retained by the artists. Signed by both Shepard Fairey and Blek le Rat and marked AP, this print holds heightened collectible value and authenticity. Beyond rarity, its imagery and collaborative nature underscore the strength of street art as a vehicle for political and cultural critique. The Man Who Walks Through Walls AP silkscreen print is not just a fine art object but also a vivid statement on urban culture, consumerism, and resistance, making it a defining example within the history of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork.

RYCA's decision to capture the essence of a QR code, an emblem of the digital age, and transform it into a piece of street pop art & graffiti artwork is innovative and reflective of our times. The smiley face hidden within the code's design adds a layer of playfulness and nostalgia, reminding us of the early days of digital communication while commenting on technology's pervasive nature in modern life.

Each print, signed and numbered by the artist, measures 9.75x9.75 inches and is printed on fine art paper. The choice to work in a monochromatic palette emphasizes the starkness and immediacy of the QR code, contrasting the often colorful and chaotic imagery found in street art. However, this very simplicity allows the piece to stand out, offering a visual pause in the frenetic visual language of urban environments. RYCA's Artistic Journey and the Intersection with Street Art RYCA's journey as an artist has been marked by his ability to infuse familiar cultural icons with new meaning. By taking a universally recognizable symbol such as the QR code and embedding the iconic smiley face within it, he bridges the gap between art and the audience, making his work both accessible and engaging. This piece is a testament to RYCA's skill in using pop art sensibilities to comment on the intersection of technology and human emotion, a prevalent theme in the digital age. The limited run of this print makes it a coveted item for collectors and reinforces the transient nature of street art, where the rarity and location of a piece can significantly enhance its value and impact.

The print represents RYCA's creative vision and a commentary on the increasingly blurred lines between the virtual and the real.

My philosophy is actually “question everything”. Conformity is often more unconscious than conscious… an adaptation to structures we may not agree with and a submission to unseen forces of manipulation… unseen because our eyes and minds are not open wide enough. People come up with conspiracy theories like “the Illuminati” to explain the feelings that they are cogs in someone else’s machine, but the deconstruction of power and control requires nothing more than a conscious and diligent examination of how power and influence upon the government accumulate and concentrate under capitalism.

  • Chaz Bojorquez MOCA Black Spray Paint Can Artwork by Montana MTN

    Chaz Bojorquez Chaz Bojorquez MOCA Black Spray Paint Can Artwork by Montana MTN

    Chaz Bojorquez MOCA Art in the Streets Black Spray Paint Can Artwork by Montana MTN  Limited Edition Artist Paint Crossover Graffiti Street Object Art. 2011 Signed, Printed Chaz Bojorquez MOCA Black Color Limited Edition of 500 Spray Paint Can with Custom Box Object Artwork Size 3x8 Montana MTN Filled with Paint. Chaz Bojórquez MOCA Spray Paint Can by Montana MTN The Chaz Bojórquez MOCA Art in the Streets limited edition spray paint can by Montana Colors is a powerful tribute to one of the most respected pioneers of West Coast graffiti culture. Released in 2011 in conjunction with the landmark MOCA Art in the Streets exhibition, this rare object merges the historical significance of Bojórquez's calligraphic Cholo style with the influential legacy of Montana MTN’s design-forward can series. This specific release was part of a 500-piece edition featuring a printed reproduction of Bojórquez's distinctive skeleton figure and handstyle layered over gritty urban textures. Each can was filled with functional black paint and housed in a custom-printed box, serving both as a collector's item and a commentary on the duality of utilitarian object and fine art. Legacy of Chaz Bojórquez in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Born and raised in Los Angeles, Chaz Bojórquez developed a deeply personal and culturally rooted form of graffiti that drew upon Cholo script, a calligraphy style originating from East LA gangs. By introducing this aesthetic to the fine art world, Bojórquez challenged existing hierarchies and legitimized urban lettering as a serious artistic form. His artworks often include skulls, Gothic motifs, and stylized letterforms that reflect the struggles, stories, and spiritual codes of his community. His influence helped elevate street-based visual culture to institutional recognition, and his role in MOCA’s Art in the Streets exhibition marked a key moment in contemporary art history when museums openly celebrated graffiti. Montana MTN and the Street Pop Art Object Format Montana Colors, a legendary European spray paint manufacturer, has long supported graffiti artists through specialized products and limited collaborations. Their limited-edition art cans blur the lines between tool and collectible sculpture, embracing the physical language of graffiti culture as a new medium for fine art. By inviting artists like Chaz Bojórquez to design these cans, Montana MTN acknowledges the cultural value of graffiti’s original format while inviting a broader audience to appreciate it. These cans are not simply paint containers but curated art objects representing the evolution of urban expression. The custom printed surface, the iconic form factor, and the functional contents make each release a unique hybrid of tradition, branding, and subversion. Chaz Bojórquez and the Art in the Streets Legacy The 2011 MOCA Art in the Streets exhibition, curated by Jeffrey Deitch, brought Bojórquez’s work to an international audience. His contribution stood out for its historical depth and authenticity, anchoring the exhibition’s narrative in the often-overlooked roots of West Coast graffiti. The spray can created with Montana MTN to mark this occasion captures that spirit in physical form. It features a monochromatic skull with fedora motif and raw wall textures referencing one of his most iconic public murals. By transforming this into a functional can, the project recontextualizes traditional graffiti elements as commemorative, portable art. This piece represents not only Bojórquez’s legacy but the deeper message of graffiti as a voice of identity, resistance, and design mastery within Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork.

    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.

With its distinctive style and provocative themes, Peterson's work continues to contribute to the conversation around art's role in reflecting and shaping the socio-political landscape.

There is a conspicuous absence of material necessities and a father. I don't know whether the father was working in a coal mine when the photograph was taken or had potentially died young because of the health risks of working under dangerous conditions, but it is clear that the family is struggling and lacking.

    Skeleton Board Cutout Ornament- Bone Pop Street Artwork Limited Edition Giclee Print on Articulated Paper Object by Urban Graffiti Modern Artist KAWS. 2021 Printed Moveable KAWS Skull 20x40 New in Original Packaging KAWS and the Intersection of Art and Anatomy KAWS, whose real name is Brian Donnelly, is renowned for his ability to navigate between various art forms, from graffiti to high-end fashion to toys. This piece, produced in 2021, showcases a moveable KAWS skull, highlighting the artist's fascination with the skeletal form — a recurring motif throughout his work. The skeleton, often seen as a symbol of mortality, is recontextualized by KAWS as a playful yet poignant reminder of the human condition. The articulated paper suggests movement and life, contrasting with the static notion of death typically associated with skeletons. The "Skeleton Board Cutout Ornament" by KAWS is a distinct piece that merges the artist's graffiti roots with a sophisticated approach to art production, reflecting the evolution of Street Pop Art and its place in contemporary culture. This limited edition giclee print on articulated paper objects is a fine example of how urban graffiti artists like KAWS have transitioned from illicit street tags to creating highly collectible and sought-after art pieces. The Artistry Behind the 'Skeleton Board Cutout Ornament' Giclee printing, known for its high quality and longevity, is utilized here to create a premium representation of KAWS' artwork. The print spans an impressive 20x40, making it a significant statement piece for collectors and enthusiasts of Street Pop Art. By translating his work onto a medium that allows for movement and interaction, KAWS invites viewers to engage with the art tactilely, further blurring the lines between traditional art forms and contemporary art toys. Like many of KAWS' works, this piece is imbued with the artist's signature aesthetic — the crossed-out eyes that have become synonymous with his name. This detail not only brands the work as distinctly KAWS but also serves as a commentary on the artist's view of the modern world: a place where the connection is often obstructed, and isolation can be prevalent. Cultural Significance of KAWS' Limited Edition Prints The limited edition nature of the "Skeleton Board Cutout Ornament" elevates its status within the art community, ensuring its place as a coveted item. Limited edition prints are a hallmark of KAWS' strategy to democratize art — by making it more accessible — and maintain a sense of exclusivity. This duality is a cornerstone of Street Pop Art, which often seeks to challenge established ideas about art and its audience. KAWS' choice to present the skeletal figure in a cutout format also pays homage to the DIY ethos of street art, where artists often create work with whatever materials and means are available. This approachability and inventiveness are critical aspects of what makes Graffiti Artwork resonate with a broad audience. It speaks to the ingenuity and resourcefulness often required in urban environments. Impact of KAWS' Work on the Art Market The art market's reception of KAWS' pieces, like the "Skeleton Board Cutout Ornament," reflects the shifting dynamics of what is considered valuable and collectible art. As street artists gain prominence in art, works that would have once been dismissed as mere novelties are now revered as important cultural artifacts. KAWS has played a significant role in this transformation through its strategic releases and partnerships. The "Skeleton Board Cutout Ornament" is not just a print; it is a statement on the permeability of art genres and the breaking down of barriers between high art and popular culture. It exemplifies how Street Pop Art can convey deep themes under the guise of simplicity and how an artist like KAWS can continue to influence and redefine the boundaries of contemporary art. Through such works, KAWS has cemented his place in the pantheon of artists who have successfully bridged the worlds of street art and fine art, thus enriching the narrative of both fields.

The artwork, featuring a character mid-action as they consume a pill, is rendered in a stark black-and-white palette, bringing the dynamism and raw energy of the original manga panels to a static object. Accompanying the image is the phrase "THEY'RE JUST LIKE CANDY!" which adds a layer of narrative and intrigue to the piece. In this unique art object, the collaboration's spirit is palpable. The featured artwork captures the essence of the AKIRA series, while the incorporation of Supreme's logo recontextualizes the image within high-end street fashion.

This technique endears the piece not only to fans of the manga but also to followers of the Supreme brand, whose identity is cleverly woven into the narrative of the artwork. The underside of the plate is as much a part of the art as the top, displaying the classic Supreme Box logo in its original, vivid colors.

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.

As both an activity and culture, skateboarding blew the doors open for me to see how creativity, fearlessness, independence, and style could let me paint my own story. To paraphrase Charles Bukowski, everything, worth saying or doing, dull or dangerous, is better with style. I learned the importance of style from skateboarding but I apply style to my art and pretty much anything else I can. My friend Blaize Blouin, the only pro skater from Charleston, S.C., where I grew up, used to say “trendy tricks come and go, but the need for style is constant”. When I picked up Hugh Holland’s Silver Skate 70’s book I was enthralled by all of the photos, but especially gripped by the shot of an unknown kid doing a stylish backside carve at the Kenter Canyon School banks in 1976. -Shepard Fairey

    Freedom/Prosperity At Any Price- Red Limited Edition Hand Pulled 2-Color Screenprint Print on 290gsm Arches Rag Paper with Deckled Edges by Cleon Peterson Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. Hand-pulled 18 x 24" screenprint. Printed on 290gsm Arches Rag paper with deckled edges. Each print is signed and numbered. Limited edition of 125. The visuality of Cleon Peterson's work is based on a variety of influences, from ancient Greek pottery to comics, resulting in monochromacy and strong color symbolism. In more detail, the figures exist on multiple straight lines, something that, subsequently, creates the illusion that the artwork is divided in levels. The perspective and the impression of depth do moderately exist in the art of Peterson and, just like in Greek vases, the background space is usually left empty or slightly embellished.

  • Sale -10% Cup & Brushes Original Ceramic Sculpture by Joshua Vides

    Joshua Vides Cup & Brushes Original Ceramic Sculpture by Joshua Vides

    Cup & Brushes Original Ceramic Hand Painted Sculpture by Joshua Vides Shattered Dreams Series Artwork by Graffiti Street Artist. 2023 Signed Original Hand-Made Sculpture One of A Kind Ceramic & Acrylic Paint Artwork Size 3x10 BMW Car Logo on Tall Slim Cup with Paintbrushes in It That Have Been Used With Colorful Paint Statue. Cup & Brushes by Joshua Vides: Handcrafted Commentary in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Cup & Brushes is a 2023 original ceramic sculpture by Joshua Vides, hand-painted and sculpted as a one-of-a-kind piece within his Shattered Dreams series. Standing at 10 inches tall and 3 inches wide, the sculpture is composed of ceramic and acrylic paint, presenting a stylized painter’s cup filled with color-dipped brushes. The object is marked with a distorted BMW logo, rendered with Vides’ signature black-and-white linework and cartoonish imperfection. The result is a satirical fusion of commercial branding and art studio realism, executed in static ceramic form but resonating with the vibrant and disruptive energy of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. The sculpture immediately strikes as an everyday object captured in transition. The tall, slim cup mimics a standard plastic or glass container typically found in a working artist’s space, now elevated to ceramic permanence. Inside it, five brushes—each dipped in a different primary color—rise with varying angles and tips, frozen mid-use. Paint splatters decorate the brush handles, hinting at past action, movement, and human presence. The BMW logo appears deliberately imprecise, drawn with an uneven hand, suggesting critique or humor rather than admiration. Vides transforms corporate symbolism into a malleable texture, destabilizing its glossy authority by recontextualizing it within the raw environment of creative labor. Material Tension and Visual Commentary Joshua Vides is known for his ability to distort reality through sculptural forms that look like sketches, flattening three-dimensional objects into cartoon-like representations. In Cup & Brushes, that visual illusion is secondary to texture and concept. The glossy ceramic surfaces are accented with drips, smudges, and brush marks, celebrating the mess of making while pointing to the polished image culture that often erases labor. By painting a luxury car logo onto a utilitarian cup used for cleaning brushes, Vides creates a sharp contrast between aspiration and effort, between consumer fantasy and creative reality. This kind of visual subversion is central to Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. Vides uses the physicality of the sculpture to question the perceived value of brand versus process. The brushes, often overlooked tools in the creation of spectacle, become the spectacle themselves. The cup—humble and functional—now becomes a pedestal for critique. By freezing a studio scene in ceramic, Vides invites viewers to consider what is glorified and what is hidden behind polished design and global branding. Joshua Vides and the Language of Line in Three Dimensions Joshua Vides has become internationally recognized for his monochromatic comic-style transformations of everyday objects, environments, and fashion collaborations. While many of his installations utilize hard lines and sharp contrast to simulate two-dimensionality, Cup & Brushes allows texture, color, and volume to take center stage. It represents a matured shift in his practice—one where he does not rely on flat outlines but instead builds emotional and cultural critique through object and form. The Shattered Dreams series, from which this sculpture originates, is an ongoing exploration of how ambition, identity, and artistic purpose interact with capitalism and brand loyalty. The BMW emblem, distorted and casually placed, functions as a stand-in for broader themes of consumption and the dream of success. The sculpture implies that behind every polished brand lies a messy cup of brushes—used, dipped, stained, and repurposed in pursuit of creative expression. Cup & Brushes as Static Protest and Artistic Tribute Cup & Brushes is more than a still-life tribute to tools—it is a sculptural poem about the invisible effort behind visual culture. It challenges the viewer to look past the logo, past the clean gallery space, and into the workspace of the artist, where objects are not sacred until they are signed, not valued until they are sold. Joshua Vides brings this tension to the surface, capturing it in ceramic and sealing it in the aesthetics of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. This sculpture stands as a reminder that even luxury begins in labor, and that every mark of paint holds a story worth sculpting.

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.
