    Dave Pollot Mixtape Archival Print by Dave Pollot

    Mixtape Limited Edition Archival Pigment Fine Art Prints on Matte Velvet Rag Paper by Graffiti Street Art Pop Artist Dave Pollot. 2022 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 100 Artwork Size 19.82x24 Edition of 100 -Signed and numbered in pencil beneath in image -including 2" white margins -Printed on matte velvet rag paper Exploring Dave Pollot's Mixtape Archival Print Dave Pollot is an American artist known for innovatively integrating street art elements into classical and pop art themes. His work often involves reimagining thrift store paintings by introducing modern elements into the otherwise classical compositions, creating a whimsical and thought-provoking juxtaposition. In his limited edition piece titled "Mixtape," Pollot combines the aesthetic of street pop art with the delicate sensibilities of traditional still life, creating a visually striking artwork that resonates with a broad audience. This artwork, signed and numbered by Pollot himself, is part of a limited edition of 100 pieces, each printed on matte velvet rag paper, emphasizing its exclusivity and appeal to collectors. Characteristics and Medium "Mixtape" features a lush arrangement of flowers, a classical subject in art, contrasted sharply by including a modern cassette labeled "Awesome Mix." This blend of the old and the new is characteristic of Pollot's style, where he seamlessly merges elements from different eras to comment on the transient nature of art and cultural artifacts. The artwork is rendered on matte velvet rag paper, a choice that enhances the colors and gives the piece a soft, tactile quality that complements its visual depth. Matte paper also avoids the glare that glossy prints might exhibit, allowing for a more intimate and engaging viewing experience. The Significance of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork in Modern Culture Street pop art and graffiti have evolved from their rebellious, underground origins to become recognized and celebrated contemporary art forms. Artists like Dave Pollot, who engage with these styles, often do so to make statements about society or to bring a new perspective to traditional art forms. In "Mixtape," the cassette tape – an object that symbolizes the recent past and evokes nostalgia – serves as a reminder of the rapid pace of technological and cultural change. Including this element in a traditional still life disrupts the expected visual narrative and invites the viewer to reflect on the evolution of music media and its impact on personal and collective memory. Like much of Pollot's work, this artwork appeals to a diverse audience. It reaches those who appreciate the technical skill required in traditional art forms and those who enjoy street art's edgy, contemporary feel. Additionally, the limited nature of the print run – only 100 pieces – along with the artist's signature, adds a layer of collectibility and value, making it a prized possession for both art lovers and investors. In the broader context, Pollot's "Mixtape" exemplifies how modern artists are blurring the lines between high art and popular culture. By bringing elements of street pop art into the gallery, these artists are challenging preconceived notions about what constitutes "fine art" and who art is for. This art democratization reflects a more significant cultural shift towards inclusivity and the recognition of diverse artistic expressions. Pollot's work celebrates this shift, showcasing how traditional and modern visual elements can coexist harmoniously and create new meanings. Dave Pollot's "Mixtape" is more than just a visually appealing piece; it is a thoughtful commentary on the intersection of past and present, popular culture's temporary nature, and art's evolving boundaries. Through this work, Pollot captures the essence of street pop art and graffiti artwork and elevates it, offering a sophisticated yet accessible piece that resonates with a contemporary audience.

Like the angel of water; she is chilling in the glass of water. Water should be free and clean for everyone, we are all part of nature. I was working on this print throughout February hand coloring one by one, and it was period of Aquarius, zodiac sign, which is the symbol of the water server. I also discovered that the word Aquarius actually referred to the public water system in ancient Rome. When I discovered what happened with the Flint Water Crisis I couldn’t believe that it was happening now, and I am very furious about how government cannot do anything with it. Shame, why people in ancient times were able to provide clean water to everyone but not in Michigan in 2018?" - Aiko

  • Pretty Broken Flower PP Archival Print by Sarah Joncas

    Sarah Joncas Pretty Broken Flower PP Archival Print by Sarah Joncas

    Pretty Broken Flower PP Printer Proof Archival Print by Sarah Joncas Limited Edition Print on 290gsm Moab Fine Art Paper Pop Artist Modern Artwork. PP Printers Proof 2021 Signed & Marked PP Limited Edition Artwork Size 16x19 Archival Pigment Fine Art Sarah Joncas' "Pretty Broken Flower PP Printer Proof" is a testament to blending traditional pop art aesthetics with the raw, passionate edge of street and graffiti artwork. This limited edition piece showcases Joncas' ability to capture deep emotion and a sense of storytelling within a single frame. The artwork is printed on 290gsm Moab fine art paper, a choice that speaks to the durability and quality of the print, ensuring that the colors and details remain vibrant over time. The Essence of Street Pop Art in Sarah Joncas' Work Joncas's work embodies the essence of street pop art by integrating popular culture elements with an urban, street-inspired edge. In "Pretty Broken Flower," the artist employs a bold and expressive palette reminiscent of classic pop art. However, Joncas' approach is nuanced, incorporating a modern sensibility that resonates with graffiti art's grittier, more spontaneous aspects. The butterflies and the heart-shaped lollipop intermingle with the subject's melancholic expression, creating a juxtaposition central to the piece's impact. Archival Pigment and Its Role in Modern Artwork The archival pigment in "Pretty Broken Flower" signifies a commitment to longevity and the highest printmaking standards. This technique ensures that the print will resist fading and degradation, which is critical for collectors who invest in limited edition prints like Joncas' work. The archival pigment is a nod to the importance of preservation in art, especially in the context of Street Pop and Graffiti Artwork, where the transient nature of the medium—often seen on walls and in urban spaces—is counterbalanced by the enduring quality of the print. Limited Editions and the Culture of Collecting This particular print, marked as a Printer's Proof (PP), is part of a unique subset of limited edition artworks that collectors highly sought after. The PP designation indicates that the print was part of a remarkable run to verify the quality before printing the complete edition. The artist or printer often retains these proofs, making them rarer than the edition prints and, therefore, more desirable. Joncas' decision to sign and mark the piece as PP adds a layer of exclusivity and personal touch, which is highly valued in modern Street Pop and Graffiti Artwork. The Emotional Depth in Joncas' Pop Art "Pretty Broken Flower" conveys an emotional depth characteristic of Joncas' style. The subject's gaze is introspective, suggesting an inner turmoil or a reflective state that viewers can relate to or interpret in various ways. This emotional connection is a hallmark of Street Pop Art, where the rawness and authenticity of street art meet the more polished, gallery-worthy aspects of pop art. Joncas masterfully balances these two worlds, creating a piece that is both accessible and profound. The Size and Impact of the Artwork Measuring 16x19 inches, "Pretty Broken Flower" is an intimate size that draws the viewer into closely interacting with the artwork. The dimensions are significant in that they allow for a detailed appreciation of Joncas' technique, from the fine lines of the subject's hair to the delicate patterns on the butterflies. The size also makes it an ideal piece for personal collections, as it can be displayed in various settings without overwhelming the space. In modern art, Sarah Joncas' "Pretty Broken Flower PP Printer Proof" is a striking example of how the lines between pop art, street art, and graffiti can be blurred to create something new and emotionally resonant. The piece not only reflects the technical prowess of Joncas but also her ability to evoke storytelling and connection through her art.

Butterfly Graffiti Street Pop Artwork

Butterflies: Symbols of Transformation in Street Art

The butterfly, with its vivid colors and transformative lifecycle, has long been a motif in various art forms, including street pop art and graffiti artwork. In the urban landscape, these delicate creatures are depicted on concrete canvases, bringing a juxtaposition of nature's ephemeral beauty to the often harsh city environments. Artists use butterflies to symbolize change, hope, and rebirth, themes that resonate deeply in communities that witness the constant flux of city life. This symbolism is powerful in street art, where the transient nature of murals and graffiti echoes the butterfly's metamorphosis. Butterflies in street art often appear as bursts of color amidst the gray tones of urban structures, serving as reminders of the natural world within the man-made. They draw the eyes of passersby, inviting contemplation on the endurance of beauty and the cycle of life amidst the everyday. Street artists may also employ butterflies to speak on environmental issues, bringing attention to the fragility of ecosystems and the need for conservation.

Street Art's Embrace of the Butterfly

The adoption of the butterfly in street art represents a broader trend in the movement towards integrating natural elements into urban art spaces. Artists have taken this symbol and adapted it to speak on personal and societal levels, whether it's addressing personal growth or wider cultural changes. The butterfly motif is versatile, lending itself to various interpretations and styles, from photorealistic depictions to stylized, abstract renditions. The presence of butterfly imagery in street pop art also reflects the growing recognition of this art form's potential to communicate complex messages and to engage with audiences on an emotional level. Murals featuring butterflies have the power to transform the walls they adorn, much like the metamorphosis of the butterfly itself. These artworks often become beloved community landmarks, appreciated not only for their aesthetic value but also for their deeper meanings.

Legacy of the Butterfly in Urban Artistic Expression

The butterfly's role in street pop art and graffiti is not merely decorative; it carries with it the legacy of transformation and the enduring spirit of nature in the face of urban development. Artists who incorporate butterfly imagery into their work are often seen as champions of the environment, advocates for change, and poets of the street, using their brushes and cans to weave stories of resilience and revival. As urban landscapes continue to evolve, the butterfly stands as a testament to the enduring human need for connection to nature and to the transformative power of art. The butterfly in street pop art and graffiti artwork serves as a symbol of hope and a reminder of the ever-present possibility for renewal, both in our surroundings and within ourselves. It is a motif that captures the imagination, encourages conservation, and inspires a sense of wonder, making it a significant and cherished element in the world of street art.
