Super Girl Minor Handling Creases to Left and Right Bottom & Mid Far Left Margins. Embellishing Street Art with Gold Leaf Miss Bugs, the enigmatic artist whose work straddles street pop art and graffiti, crafted a riveting series 2008 titled "The Year Of The Super Power Rat." This limited edition silkscreen print series is a striking example of the fusion between traditional printmaking techniques and contemporary street art sensibilities. Each piece in this collection is meticulously hand-pulled on Hahnemühle fine art paper, a testament to the artist's dedication to quality and craftsmanship. What sets "The Year Of The Super Power Rat" apart is the lavish use of gold leaf, which brings an element of luxury to the otherwise gritty domain of street art. This hand-embellished, hand-pulled silkscreen print series is limited to thirty pieces, intricately detailed and numbered by the artist. The inclusion of gold leaf in street art is a bold move by Miss Bugs, elevating the work from the brief to the eternal, from the urban to the exquisite. The Fusion of Pop Art Imagery and Graffiti Technique In "The Year Of The Super Power Rat," Miss Bugs delves into the symbolism of power and resilience, traits often associated with the eponymous rodent in cultural lore. The series reflects a year marked by these characteristics, with the superhero motif serving as a metaphor for the extraordinary capabilities within the ordinary. Miss Bugs' choice of materials—spray paint and gold leaf—on Hahnemühle fine art paper, traditionally reserved for more 'refined' art forms, blurs the lines between high art and street art, between the fleeting and the permanent. The exclusivity of the series, with only thirty pieces in existence, is a nod to the collector's desire to own something unique. Each artwork, sized at 19.7x24 inches, is an intimate canvas for Miss Bugs' layered visual storytelling. The limited edition nature of "The Year Of The Super Power Rat" assures that each piece is not just a fragment of street pop art but a collectible artifact that captures a moment in the evolving narrative of contemporary art.

"The Year Of The Super Power Rat" by Miss Bugs is a profound piece within the spectrum of street pop art and graffiti artwork. Its hand-pulled silkscreen technique adorned with gold leaf on fine art paper stands as a testament to the innovation and artistry of Miss Bugs. This series captures the imagination with its visual splendor and encapsulates the transformative power of art as it moves from the street corners to the hallowed walls of collectors and connoisseurs.

  • Riot Cop Large Format Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Shepard Fairey- OBEY Riot Cop Large Format Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Riot Cop Large Format Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. 2009 Signed by Shepard Fairey- OBEY & Numbered Limited Edition of 75 Large Format Artwork Size 29.25x40.5 Silkscreen Print 20 Year Retro Series. Faint Handling Creases. Shepard Fairey's OBEY: A Landmark in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork Shepard Fairey's "Riot Cop" is a definitive piece that embodies the rebellious spirit and critical eye of street pop art and graffiti artwork. As part of the OBEY series, this large-format silkscreen print is more than a visual statement; it's a historical marker of the genre's evolution over two decades. Crafted with precision and care, the "Riot Cop" was hand-pulled in colors on cream Speckletone fine art paper, a medium that speaks to the quality and detail revered in fine art and the raw, unfiltered message often conveyed in street art. Released in 2009, each of the 75 editions of this large-format artwork, measuring 29.25x40.5 inches, was signed and numbered by Fairey. This gesture underscores the personal touch and authenticity valued in the world of art collectors. The artwork was reissued to mark the 20th anniversary of the OBEY project, which coincided with Shepard’s 20-year retrospective at the ICA Boston. This series, revisiting images from 1998 to 2000, showcases the artist's intention to refine previous works, substituting the iconic OBEY orange for metallic gold, lending the series an air of sophistication and timelessness. Impact and Contextual Significance of Fairey's Work The "Riot Cop" is more than an aesthetic creation; it's a commentary on authority, control, and the use of power. Fairey's work is deeply ingrained in the socio-political fabric of the times, often provoking thought on the mechanisms of society and governance. The prominent use of the word "OBEY" beneath the image of an authoritative figure wielding a baton is a direct call to the viewers to question the structures and rules that govern them. This challenge to the status quo is symbolic of the cultural force that street pop art and graffiti artwork have become, serving as an outlet for creativity and a powerful tool for social critique and activism. Shepard Fairey's journey from a skater kid with a sticker campaign to a celebrated artist with a globally recognized brand is a narrative that mirrors the ascension of street art into the mainstream consciousness. The "Riot Cop" is a testament to Fairey's growth as an artist, showcasing his skill in blending the aesthetics of street art with more profound political messages. The shift in the color palette in the anniversary series from orange to metallic gold signifies a physical transformation in the artwork. It represents a maturation of the OBEY message, which has evolved to maintain relevance in an ever-changing cultural landscape. Collectability and Legacy of the OBEY Series As a limited edition artwork, the "Riot Cop" occupies a unique space in the art market, appealing to street art enthusiasts and fine art collectors. The exclusivity of the piece and its social commentary have cemented its status as a highly desirable item. The legacy of Fairey's OBEY series is not limited to the collectors who own a piece of it; it extends to its influence on aspiring street artists and the dialogue it has inspired about the role of art in society. The series mainly works like the "Riot Cop," it continues to inspire a new generation of artists who see the urban landscape as a canvas for expressing their thoughts on contemporary issues. Shepard Fairey's "Riot Cop" from the OBEY series is a significant work that captures the essence of street pop art and graffiti artwork. It stands as a cultural artifact that encapsulates the ethos of a movement, the voice of an era, and the vision of an artist who has skillfully used silkscreen printing to challenge perceptions and invite introspection. Through his work, Fairey continues to demonstrate the power of art as a means of communication, a form of resistance, and a catalyst for change.

  • Battle Damaged Lil Qwiky Gold Signed Canbot Canz Art Toy by Quiccs x Czee13 Battle Damaged Lil Qwiky Gold Signed Canbot Canz Art Toy by Quiccs x Czee13

    Quiccs Battle Damaged Lil Qwiky Gold Signed Canbot Canz Art Toy by Quiccs x Czee13

    Battle Damaged Qwiky Signed Gold & Black Canbot Canz Limited Edition Vinyl Art Toy Collectible Artwork by street graffiti Czee13 x QUICCS. 2020 Signed Autograph Gold & Black Battle Damaged Colorway Limited Edition of 200 New in Box Artwork Size 3x5.5 Canz Art Toy. Vast Majority Not Signed. The Intersection of Street Pop Art and Vinyl Collectibles: The Battle Damaged Qwiky Canbot Canz The street pop art and graffiti world has always been vibrant and constantly evolving, with artists seeking new mediums to express their unique visions and connect with audiences. Among these mediums, vinyl art toys have emerged as a powerful form of collectible artwork, seamlessly blending the ethos of street art with the culture of collectible memorabilia. A shining example of this fusion is the Battle Damaged Qwiky Signed Gold & Black Canbot Canz , a limited edition vinyl art toy collectible created by a collaboration between the renowned street graffiti artist Czee13 and the prolific creator QUICCS. This piece is not just a toy; it's a statement, a slice of the street brought into the collector's domain. The Battle Damaged Qwiky Canbot Canz stands out with its distinctive colorway—a stark, contrasting scheme of gold and black. It symbolizes the wear and tear of urban art, the marks of time and experience that give graffiti its character. Limited to an edition of 200, this Canbot Canz is a rare piece, with the vast majority of the collection not signed. Those that bear Czee13's autograph are thus highly sought after by collectors and fans of street pop art and graffiti artwork. The Essence of Collaboration in Street Art Translated into Vinyl The collaboration between Czee13 and QUICCS is a testament to the collaborative spirit inherent in street pop art. Their partnership for the Battle Damaged Qwiky Canbot Canz showcases a blend of their styles—QUICCS's love for mecha aesthetics and hip-hop influences converges with Czee13's organic and raw street art visuals. Each Canbot Canz reflects a narrative that speaks of resilience and survival in the urban jungle. Measuring 3x5.5 inches, this Canbot Canz is a compact powerhouse of artistic expression. It's important to note the significance of the toy's condition, dubbed 'battle damaged.' This term references the visual storytelling standard in street art, where every scratch and mismatched spray line tells a story of the artwork's life in the public sphere. This Canbot Canz 's design deliberately includes elements that mimic such 'damage,' turning what would traditionally be imperfections into badges of honor, much like in real-life street art that stands the test of time and the elements. The Cultural Impact of Limited Edition Art Toys The rarity of the Battle Damaged Qwiky Canbot Canz adds to its appeal and is a strategic move that mirrors the fleeting nature of street art—often here today, gone tomorrow. Limited to 200 pieces, this exclusivity creates a sense of urgency and a deeper appreciation for the artwork, much like the impermanent graffiti that may only exist briefly before being painted over or removed. This scarcity also reflects the underground roots of street art, where access and knowledge of certain pieces create a subcultural currency of cool. While most of these collectibles are not signed, those featuring Czee13's signature are elevated in status. They become a direct link to the artist, akin to having a piece of signed wall art in miniature form. This personalized touch is a nod to the tradition of graffiti artists leaving their mark and tag as a signature on their works, making each signed Canbot Canz a coveted piece for those who collect street pop art and graffiti artwork. The Canbot Canz as a Medium of Street Pop Art Expression The Battle Damaged Qwiky Signed Gold & Black Canbot Canz by Czee13 and QUICCS transcends being merely a collectible piece of contemporary street pop art that carries the essence of graffiti culture into a new form. It's a manifestation of street art's dynamism, a tangible piece that captures the spirit of the streets in a way that can be held, displayed, and treasured. For collectors, it's not just about owning a piece of vinyl; it's about holding a fragment of street art history, a moment of artistic collaboration, and a symbol of the culture they admire and want to preserve. This Canbot Canz is a statement, a conversation starter, and ultimately, a bridge between the tactile world of art collectors and the often ephemeral realm of street graffiti.

    Black & Blue Sedation in Bloom Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. 2021 Signed by Shepard Fairey- OBEY & Numbered Limited Edition of 150 Artwork Size 18x24 Sedation in Bloom Silkscreen Print Series.  "I originally worked on this poppy pattern art as part of my collaboration with artist Gordon Cheung. In our piece, we addressed the tragic murder of Vincent Chin and the historical use of anti-Asian imagery and symbols in Western culture. The poppy is a beautiful flower with many symbolic interpretations, including peace, death, sleep, and sedation. I often weave floral and decorative patterns into my art to draw viewers in and make challenging concepts more digestible. However, decorative appeal can sedate people and distract them from more important social issues. Whether in entertainment, alcohol, drugs, or conspicuous consumption, I think sedation is a major cause of social and political complacency and ignorance. These Sedation In Bloom prints serve the dual purpose of a decorative escape and a reminder to stay awake and aware!" -Shepard Fairey- OBEY. Exploring the Depths of Black & Blue Sedation in Bloom by Shepard Fairey In the sphere of street pop art and graffiti artwork, the Black & Blue Sedation in Bloom stands as a profound narrative crafted by Shepard Fairey. Known for his impactful OBEY campaign, Fairey is an American artist born on February 15, 1970, whose work extends beyond mere visual stimuli to incite discussion on social and political issues. The 2021 silkscreen print series exemplifies this, with each piece pulled by hand on cream speckletone fine art paper, ensuring the authenticity that collectors and enthusiasts deeply value. As part of a limited edition series, this 18x24 artwork connects intimately with its audience, being one among only 150 pieces worldwide, each signed and numbered by Fairey himself. Symbology and Collaboration in Fairey's Work Fairey's collaboration with Gordon Cheung serves as the undercurrent for this series. Together, they ventured into a poignant exploration of anti-Asian sentiment, as encapsulated by the tragic story of Vincent Chin. It is within this context that the poppy - a recurring motif in Fairey's work - blooms with significance. Symbolizing peace, death, sleep, and sedation, the poppies laid against the stark black and blue backdrop invite a dichotomy of beauty and tragedy, pleasure and pain, sedation and awakening. This art piece acts as a vessel for dialogue, challenging the observer to confront the seductive veneer of pop culture that often masks deeper societal ailments. Through the intricate weaving of poppy patterns, Fairey endeavors to draw viewers closer, only to confront them with the sobering realities of complacency and ignorance, a cause he attributes to the distractions of entertainment, substance abuse, and materialism. Fairey's Impact on Street Pop Art and Societal Awareness Fairey's impact on street pop art is not only measured by his visual contributions but also by the palpable discourse his works ignite. Black & Blue Sedation in Bloom transcends its function as decor, morphing into a silent yet screaming reminder of the necessity to remain vigilant in a world saturated with distractions. The deep blues and stark blacks contrast with the cream undertones, creating a visual tension that mirrors the societal tension Fairey aims to address. Beyond the aesthetic lies a critical engagement with the concept of sedation in societal context — how beauty and art can both inspire and anesthetize. In this sense, Fairey's work is a call to action, an elegy to awareness in the form of street pop art, and a symbolic act of graffiti that marks the consciousness of its viewers. This series represents the quintessential purpose of Fairey's artistic journey — to awaken, to provoke, and to inspire change through the medium of street art. Shepard Fairey's Continuing Legacy in Art and Activism The Black & Blue Sedation in Bloom print holds its place in the legacy of Shepard Fairey — a legacy characterized by an unyielding pursuit of social commentary through art. Fairey, still active and based in Los Angeles, California, maintains his reputation as a pivotal figure in the fusion of street art aesthetics and social activism. This piece, like many others within his oeuvre, is a reflection of his unwavering commitment to art as a medium for social awakening. As an artist, Fairey continues to challenge the traditional confines of street pop art, using his platform to address themes of political complacency and social ignorance. With each print in the Black & Blue Sedation in Bloom series, he invites his audience to participate in a visual and cognitive experience that is as much about introspection as it is about external critique. In this light, Fairey's work remains an essential thread in the fabric of contemporary art, continually weaving narratives that compel and resonate with audiences far beyond the realm of traditional galleries and into the streets, where the pulse of collective consciousness thrives.

Celebrating Street Culture Through Iconography In "Modern Hieroglyphics," Mike Giant effectively creates a visual lexicon that translates the complex language of street culture into a series of universally recognizable symbols. The work is reminiscent of ancient hieroglyphics in its attempt to document and communicate through imagery; however, the icons chosen are distinctly contemporary, reflecting the artist's immersion in the iconography of skateboarding, tattoo culture, and graffiti. The Printer's Proof designation indicates a print used to verify the quality before the entire run is produced. It is a rare piece, often held in high regard due to its proximity to the artist's original intent. The hand-signing and marking by Giant authenticate the print's originality and his direct involvement in its creation, offering a connection between the artist and the collector.

Rendered on 290gsm Arches Rag Paper, a choice indicative of the artist's commitment to quality, the artwork bears deckled edges that add to its tactile allure and give it a sense of vintage charm. Diving deeper into the art piece itself, the depiction of a nude woman, assertively riding a horse while swinging a bloody sword overhead, speaks volumes of empowerment, wrath, and liberation. The raw energy and audacity embodied in the character stand in stark contrast to conventional portrayals of femininity, signaling a challenge to established norms. The silkscreen technique used further amplifies the intensity of the piece, allowing the vivid imagery to stand out with a near-three-dimensional effect. Limited to just 100 prints, each signed and numbered by Peterson in 2022, the exclusivity of "Sirens Of The Night Gold" makes it an even more coveted artifact for enthusiasts and collectors alike. Sized at 24x18, the artwork, in its boldness and significance, is a testament to the continuing evolution and power of contemporary art forms like graffiti and street art.

Depth and Dimension: The Role of Black in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork

Black as a Powerful Medium in Urban Art

Black, a color that can be both the absence of light and the amalgamation of all pigments in the art world, holds a fundamental place in the street pop art and graffiti genres. Its multifaceted and profound use provides depth, contrast, and definition. In the hands of artists, black is not merely a color; it's an essential component of visual storytelling that can convey various themes and emotions, from the stark and severe to the rich and sophisticated.

Techniques Embracing the Intensity of Black

The techniques used to apply black in urban artwork are as diverse as the artists themselves. It can be found in the sharp lines of stencils that cut through the noise of colorful backdrops or in the swirling shadows that give murals a sense of life and movement. Black often outlines figures and shapes, making them pop from their surroundings and granting them an arresting visual clarity. In addition, the texture of black paint or ink can range from a matte finish that absorbs light, creating a void-like effect, to a glossy sheen that suggests a sleek, modern aesthetic. Culturally, black carries significant weight. It can symbolize rebellion or conformity, chaos or order, nothingness, or the complex integration of all that is colorful. In street pop art and graffiti, black is commonly associated with the underground, the edgy, and the avant-garde. It is the color of the night, the urban, and the unknown. Black's ability to make other colors stand out while still commanding its presence makes it a powerful tool for artists seeking to challenge norms and make bold statements.

Compositional Balance and Boldness with Black

In composition, black's role is unparalleled. It offers an anchor within the artwork, a point of return for the eye amidst the visual excitement of brighter hues. Using black can balance a piece, adding a sense of stability and grounding. However, it also has the power to dominate, to turn a multicolored mural into a monochromatic statement, or to bring a sense of solemnity and gravity to street pop art and graffiti pieces. The future of black in street pop art and graffiti artwork looks as solid as the color itself. As urban art continues to evolve, the applications and symbolism of black are likely to deepen and diversify. New materials and methods will expand the range of textures and finishes available to artists, from the blackest blacks that absorb nearly all light to reflective surfaces that play with the urban environment's illumination. In street pop art and graffiti, black is a foundational element, a color as essential as the spaces it adorns. It is a color that speaks in whispers and shouts, a color that refuses to be silent, and a color that, paradoxically, brings the vibrant world of urban art to life. Whether used with precision or with wild abandon, black remains a testament to the enduring power and versatility of color in the hands of those who seek to transform the cityscape into a canvas of personal expression and public engagement.
