  • Made in USA Flag Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber Gold 1

    Saber Made in USA Flag Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber

    Made in USA Flag Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber Original Permanent Marker Art Drawing on Glossy US Flag Sticker by Graffiti Artist Modern Street Artwork. 2020 Signed US Flag Made in USA America Original Slap Up Graffiti Art Tag 4x4 Marker Tagged on Sticker. Unfurling the American Narrative Through Graffiti: The Made in USA Flag Sticker Art The potent symbol of the American flag has been a recurring motif in various forms of art, not least within the vibrant world of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork. Within this context, the 'Made in USA' flag slap-up label sticker stands out as a canvas for expression, especially in the hands of graffiti artists. Layered with original tag art, these stickers serve as miniature yet powerful vehicles for cultural and political commentary, recontextualizing a national symbol within the urban landscape. Saber's Interpretation of the American Iconography Renowned graffiti artist Saber Ryan Weston Shook has significantly contributed to this expression. His original permanent marker art drawings on glossy US flag stickers are more than just aesthetic creations; they are a form of modern street artwork that captures the essence of American identity and the spirit of its people. His work, created in 2020 and signed, embodies a raw and compelling narrative, each tag measuring 4x4 inches – a small but striking testament to the artist's skill and vision. Saber's use of the American flag as a backdrop is particularly resonant, given the flag's strong associations with patriotism, freedom, and national identity. By superimposing his tags over this symbol, Saber disrupts the viewer's usual perception, challenging them to reconsider the meaning of 'Made in USA' in the context of street art. His bold and unapologetic strokes introduce a dialogue about ownership, creativity, and the very definition of what it means to be American-made. The Evolution of Tagging and Its Cultural Relevance Tagging has evolved from straightforward signatures to complex works of art that communicate the artist's identity and status within the graffiti community. It is a practice steeped in the history of street art, one that demands attention and commands space. Regarding the 'Made in USA' flag slap-up label stickers by Saber, the tags are not just marks of territory but statements of existence. The choice of gold and silver markers adds a layer of irony, contrasting precious metals' perceived value with graffiti art's often misunderstood value. The cultural relevance of such art is immense. It taps into ongoing conversations about national pride and consumerism, questioning the authenticity of the 'Made in USA' label in an era of globalization. Moreover, it embodies the ethos of Street Pop Art, a genre that borrows from popular culture to create art that is both accessible and deeply meaningful. In Saber's hands, the flag sticker transforms into a manifesto, a declaration that art made on the streets by the hands of the many is as quintessentially American as the flag itself. The 'Made in USA' flag slap-up label stickers adorned with Saber's tags represent a microcosm of the larger narrative that Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork continually narrate. Through such pieces, artists like Saber assert their place within the American saga, crafting a version of the flag that is as diverse, complex, and vibrant as the nation it represents. These stickers are not just tags; they are emblems of a culture that celebrates the freedom of expression and the indelible marks of individuality.

  • Sale -10% Catalyst Original Graphite Pencil Drawing by Naoto Hattori

    Naoto Hattori Catalyst Original Graphite Pencil Drawing by Naoto Hattori

    Catalyst Original Hand Drawn Art Drawing on Framed Hand Deckled Aged Art Paper by Surreal Artist Naoto Hattori. 2012 Signed Original One-of-a-Kind Pencil/Graphite Drawing Framed Artwork Frame Size 8.5x8.5 Image Size 3x5. Custom Framed & Matted By Artist Naoto Hattori's "Catalyst": A Surreal Intersection of Imagery and Emotion "Catalyst," an original hand-drawn art piece by the surreal artist Naoto Hattori, represents a unique convergence of delicate pencil work and emotive surrealism captured on hand-deckled aged art paper. This 2012 one-of-a-kind pencil/graphite drawing is a testament to Hattori's skill in portraying complex, dream-like visions within a compact space. The framed artwork, with an image size of 3x5 inches and a frame size of 8.5x8.5 inches, has been custom framed and matted by the artist, adding a personal touch that complements the intimate scale of the work. This drawing stands apart from conventional urban art's execution and presentation. While street pop art and graffiti artwork are typically associated with large-scale, public displays, Hattori's "Catalyst" invites a more personal interaction. The piece is imbued with the intricacies of fine art while resonating with the accessibility and visceral impact often found in street art. Hattori's work does not scream from the walls; instead, it whispers, drawing the viewer into a one-on-one dialogue with the art. Exploring the Artistic Detail in "Catalyst" The meticulous detail in "Catalyst" showcases Hattori's masterful control of pencil and graphite, revealing an otherworldly creature that seems to emerge from the very fibers of the aged paper. The hand-decked paper highlights the artist's appreciation for the tactile qualities of his materials and his intent to merge the traditional with the surreal. Each stroke and shadow in the drawing contributes to an overall sense of depth and dimension, breathing life into the fantastical subject. The creature depicted combines familiar elements with the enigmatic, challenging the viewer's perception of reality. The intimate size of the image, contrasting with the more substantial frame, emphasizes the artwork's precious nature, akin to a relic or a talisman. This sense of preciousness is often sought in street pop art and graffiti artwork, where the transient nature of the medium contrasts sharply with the desire to create something lasting and impactful. Hattori's "Catalyst," while not a typical street art piece, captures the essence of what many street artists strive for—an enduring connection with the audience. Naoto Hattori's "Catalyst" is a profound piece of art that transcends the boundaries between the various disciplines of pop art, street art, and surrealism. It encapsulates the ethereal, tangible, imagined, and accurate, inviting viewers to ponder the unknown depths of their psyche. The meticulous craftsmanship, coupled with the unique presentation, makes "Catalyst" a valuable addition to contemporary art discourse, highlighting the breadth and diversity within the realm of artistic expression.

  • Coronavirus Quarantine Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber

    Saber Coronavirus Quarantine Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber

    Coronavirus Quarantine Multi Tagged Original Slap-Up Label Marker Painting/Drawing Art on Warning Label by Tru Graffiti Legend Saber Urban Street Artist. 2020 Signed Marker Original Coronavirus Quarantine Yellow Biohazard Slap Up Graffiti Art Tag 7x5 Multi Tagged on High Visibility Virus Covid-19 Warning Label Red, Purple & Silver Marker. Confronting a Global Crisis through Street Pop Art The 'Coronavirus Quarantine' multi-tagged original slap-up label marker painting/drawing by the urban street artist Saber captures the zeitgeist of an era dominated by the pandemic. This 2020 signed marker original is more than a piece of graffiti artwork; it is a historical document that encapsulates a moment when the world grappled with the unprecedented challenge of COVID-19. Saber, known for his influential role in the graffiti art scene, takes a high-visibility yellow biohazard slap-up label, a symbol now ubiquitously associated with the virus, and transforms it into a canvas. The dimensions of the work, 7x5 inches, might seem modest, but the impact of the art could be better. Through his use of vibrant and chaotic tags that overlay the stark warning of 'Coronavirus Quarantine,' Saber disrupts the alarming message of the label, inviting contemplation on the nature of the pandemic that extends beyond fear and caution. The piece is a profound commentary on global affairs during the COVID-19 crisis. The graffiti artist's tags subverted the choice to use a warning label, a helpful object designed to communicate danger and command obedience. The tags, often considered an act of defiance in public spaces, here challenge the narrative of the pandemic by bringing an individualistic and human touch to the impersonal and clinical warning label. Impact of Saber's Art in the Context of Street Pop Art In the context of street pop art, Saber's 'Coronavirus Quarantine' piece stands out as a poignant reflection of the times. Street art has always had the unique ability to engage with its audience directly and urgently. In this instance, the art serves as a visual expression of the collective angst, confusion, and resilience experienced during the quarantine periods. Saber's artwork, juxtaposing the form of formal, almost anarchic graffiti tags, speaks to the unchecked nature of the public's response to the pandemic—order and disorder, compliance and rebellion. 2020 will be remembered for its seismic shifts in global health, economies, and societies. In this climate, street pop art and graffiti artwork like Saber's serve as markers of resistance and reminders of human endurance. The biohazard slap-up label, once a mere functional sign, is recontextualized as a piece of art that provokes, questions, and endures, much like the human spirit during the trials of the pandemic. Saber, the American artist behind this impactful work, has once again demonstrated why he is regarded as a legend in the graffiti world. His ability to take the pulse of society and translate it into art that is both provocative and reflective ensures that his work remains relevant and resonant, not just within the street art community but also among those who encounter his art in the very public spaces that the coronavirus pandemic has so markedly changed.

AP Artist Proof 2023 Signed & Marked AP Flat Matte Paint Marker Mixed Media Limited Edition Artwork Size 26x20 HPM Hand Embellished Giclee Print. "This piece was made based on the idea, "I wanted to create that moment of serenity I felt sitting on the banks, deep in the wild concrete of the LA River opposite of my old giant roller piece, watching the city as the sun had set... Yet, this time, the giant roller piece was repainted shortly after 2050. "..... Using flat matte paint markers, I could accentuate the highlights, colors, city lights, and details. I also busted out the reading glasses and hid some tiny tags in each one." -Saber. Reflecting Urban Tranquility: Saber's "LARIVER 2050 AP Artist Proof HPM Giclee Print" The "LARIVER 2050 AP Artist Proof HPM Giclee Print" by Saber stands out as a significant piece within the street pop art and graffiti art landscape, blending the aesthetics of urban graffiti with the serene backdrop of the Los Angeles River. This 2023 signed and marked Artist Proof captures a futuristic vision of the city, presenting a unique juxtaposition of natural tranquility and urban vibrancy. Sized at 26x20 inches on deckled fine art paper, the limited edition artwork showcases Saber's mastery in hand embellishing giclee prints with flat matte paint markers, emphasizing highlights, colors, and intricate city lights. Saber, a prominent figure in the graffiti world, is renowned for his large-scale works on the concrete banks of the LA River. This piece is an homage to the artist's experience of the river, reflecting on a moment of calm as he observed the city's transformation at sunset. The artwork imagines this scene in the year 2050, with the artist's "giant roller piece" from the past re-envisioned in a new form. The use of mixed media adds depth and dimension to the print, creating a dynamic interplay between the textural surface of the paper and the vibrant application of color. In crafting "LARIVER 2050," Saber has embedded minute tags within the artwork, a nod to the graffiti tradition of leaving a signature mark that personalizes and authenticates one's work. These hidden elements invite the viewer to engage with the print closely, discovering new details and layers of meaning. The hand embellishments ensure that each piece within the edition stands as a unique work of art with individualized accents and nuances. The print's portrayal of the LA River, a significant but often overlooked landmark, serves as a metaphor for the city itself—its resilience, constant flux, and hidden pockets of beauty amidst the urban sprawl. Saber's work challenges the notion of graffiti as mere vandalism, instead presenting it as a sophisticated form of street pop art that can capture and convey the complex narratives of city life. "LARIVER 2050" celebrates street art's evolution from its underground beginnings to its current status as a respected and sought-after form of contemporary art. The decision to use giclee printing, a method known for its high-quality reproduction of artworks, indicates the medium's acceptance within the fine art world. Saber's choice to hand-embellish each print further blurs the line between mass-produced art and unique creations, a line that street artists have been navigating and redefining over the past few decades. Saber's "LARIVER 2050 AP Artist Proof HPM Giclee Print" is a testament to the transformative power of street pop art and graffiti artwork. It reflects the artist's deep connection to the urban environment and his ability to capture its essence in a visually striking and emotionally resonant way. As a limited edition piece, it serves as a collector's item and a piece of cultural commentary, encapsulating the spirit of Los Angeles and the ever-evolving narrative of street art.

  • Companion Flayed- Black Fine Art Toy by Kaws- Brian Donnelly

    Kaws- Brian Donnelly Companion Flayed- Black Fine Art Toy by Kaws- Brian Donnelly

    Companion Flayed- Black Limited Edition Vinyl Art Toy Collectible Artwork by Modern Pop Artist Kaws. 2016 Unopened Package Limited Open Edition 10.5 X 4.5 X 2.5 / 16.7 X 11.4 X 6.4 CM The Companion Flayed: An Icon of KAWS' Street Pop Art Legacy The Companion Flayed Black Limited Edition Vinyl Art Toy embodies the pinnacle of KAWS' influence in modern pop and street pop art. Unveiled in 2016, this piece is a profound iteration of the most recognizable figure in KAWS' artistic arsenal, the Companion. The artist has reimagined the Companion multiple times, each version laying bare a new facet of its symbolic resonance. The flayed version, particularly in its stark black form, invites viewers to peer beneath the surface, literally and metaphorically, into the layers composing this contemporary icon. Measuring 10.5 x 4.5 x 2.5 inches, the Companion Flayed stands as a testament to KAWS' ability to manipulate form and content to produce artworks that speak to a generation conversant in the visual language of design, pop culture, and street aesthetics. This series, including full-bodied and flayed versions of the classic character, was released in conjunction with KAWS's exhibition "Where The End Starts" in Fort Worth, Texas. Standing 11 inches tall, the figures were made available through KAWSONE, MoMA, and the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, marking a significant moment in the intersection of street art and institutional recognition. Companion Flayed's Role in the Dialogue of Street Pop Art KAWS' Companion Flayed is more than a collectible; it's a conversation piece that delves into the dialogue of what Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork can be. It's a manifestation of KAWS' unique ability to traverse the spectrum of visual art, from anonymous street tags to globally recognized sculptures. The flayed version, with its exposed internal vibrancy, can be seen as a deconstruction of the character itself and the culture from which it originates. The black color of the figure contrasts with the colorful internal details, creating a visual dialogue between the seen and unseen, the external persona, and the internal complexity. The release of this series through prominent art institutions and KAWS' platform, KAWSONE, reflects the evolving landscape where street-inspired art is as much at home in the museum as on the urban wall. It underscores the fluidity of KAWS' art, capable of eliciting a sense of familiarity while challenging perceptions with its dissected form. This feature has become a recurrent theme in his work. KAWS' Impact on the Art Toy Movement and Beyond The Companion Flayed Black Limited Edition Vinyl Art Toy is emblematic of KAWS' impact on the burgeoning art toy movement. This movement sees the toy as a canvas for artistic expression, a medium that allows the artist to explore form, concept, and accessibility in new ways. Through figures like the Companion Flayed, KAWS has been pivotal in pushing the boundaries of this movement, garnering attention not only from the realms of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork but also from the wider art community and popular culture. The release of this collectible in a limited open edition signifies the democratizing vision KAWS has for art. While each piece holds the allure of exclusivity, the forthcoming edition format ensures it remains within reach for a diverse audience, aligning with the ethos of street art's accessibility. With its distinctive cross-eyed face and x-ed-out eyes, the Companion Flayed has transcended its role as mere merchandise to become an essential touchstone in contemporary art, embodying the interplay between mass culture and high art that defines KAWS' oeuvre.

    Rabbit House Artwork Limited Edition Giclee Print on Fine Art Paper by Propaganda Artist Ron English- POPaganda. 2013 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 25 Size 32x27 "Rabbit House" is a captivating artwork by Ron English- POPaganda, an artist famed for his contribution to the propaganda art movement, which critiques contemporary culture through the melding of high and low art. The limited edition giclee print on fine art paper showcases English's expertise in juxtaposing surrealism with a hyper-saturated palette, creating a piece that is both a visual feast and a profound commentary on consumerism and the corporate infiltration of American life. The 2013 artwork, with its size of 32x27 inches, belongs to a highly exclusive series, limited to only 25 signed and numbered prints, making it a coveted piece for collectors. English's Rabbit House thrusts the viewer into a vibrant, almost psychedelic scene, blending elements of fantastical landscapes with familiar yet distorted characters and motifs. This vivid tableau is populated with mutated creatures and toys, expressing the artist's trademark fusion of reality with the absurd. The creatures in the scene are exaggerated and colorful, embodying English's critical perspective on the mutagenic powers of capitalism on nature and childhood innocence. The meticulous detail and depth of the piece draw onlookers into a three-dimensional space that feels at once otherworldly and uncomfortably familiar, echoing the intrusion of the fantastical into the mundane that is ever-present in today's advertising-saturated environment. Ron English- POPaganda utilizes the giclee printing method, revered for its high-quality reproduction of colors and details, ensuring that each element, from the reflective surfaces to the intricate textures of the flora and fauna, is captured with exceptional clarity by crafting a limited series of prints, English ties the artwork to the street art ethos, where exclusivity and access play pivotal roles. Like a street artist's fleeting murals, "Rabbit House" holds a transient place in the art world; its limited availability endows the piece with a sense of impermanence contrasting with the enduring nature of the paper it's printed on. English's work is a sophisticated blend of criticism and celebration of popular culture, offering an immersive escape while prompting introspective reflections on the world we live in. This artwork is not just a statement but a conversation starter, engaging its audience with layers of meaning and a rich visual narrative.

Black Graffiti Street Pop Artwork

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.
