This piece, created in 2016, is a fine example of how two artists can merge their distinctive styles to create a unique work that reflects their individual artistic identities. The 9-color hand-pulled limited edition distressed pearl white finish silkscreen print on 250gsm Stonehenge White Fine Art Paper is a testament to the meticulous craftsmanship and artistic vision shared by the two legends of the street art scene. OG Slick, an artist with a background deeply rooted in the Los Angeles graffiti movement, brings his iconic imagery and urban sensibilities to the piece. Known for his bold and often subversive visual language, Slick’s contribution to C/S II is immediately apparent in the stylized cartoon hands and contemporary iconography that speaks to street culture's commercial and gritty aspects. His work has often been characterized by a playfulness that belies a more profound commentary on social and cultural issues. This is evident in how he manipulates familiar symbols and characters to challenge viewers’ perceptions. Chaz Bojorquez's Signature Style in C/S II Chaz Bojorquez’s influence in the piece is equally profound. His signature style, which draws from the Cholo graffiti tradition and his sophisticated understanding of typography, complements Slick’s more whimsical elements with a sense of gravity and history. The calligraphic strokes and the intricate lettering in the background of C/S II are unmistakably Bojorquez’s, showcasing his mastery over form and ability to convey a rich cultural narrative through his art. His work captures the essence of a subculture that has often been marginalized, elevating it to a level of fine art that demands recognition and respect. The collaboration between these two artists on C/S II is a dialogue between different eras and styles within the street art genre. While OG Slick’s work is often seen as a bridge between the early days of street art and the modern aesthetic, Bojorquez represents the soulful, enduring aspects of graffiti art woven into the cultural fabric of urban life. Together, their work on this print creates a complex interplay of color, form, and symbolism that celebrates street art’s past and a bold statement about its future. Cultural Significance of the Limited Edition C/S II Print The cultural significance of the C/S II print lies in its embodiment of the spirit of street pop art and graffiti artwork. Limited to an edition of 150, each print is signed by OG Slick and Chaz Bojorquez, making it a rare and collectible piece that holds great value for street art lovers. The decision to limit the edition not only underscores the value of the artwork but also speaks to the ethos of street art, where the fleeting nature of the medium often means that works can be temporary and transient. By capturing this transient essence in a tangible form, OG Slick and Bojorquez have created a lasting artifact of street culture. The piece is particularly notable for its distressed pearl white finish, which adds texture and depth to the print. This finish gives the artwork a tactile quality that invites closer inspection and suggests a history behind the image as if it has been weathered by time and the elements – a nod to the real-world conditions of street art. The use of Stonehenge White Fine Art Paper further elevates the piece, marrying the raw energy of graffiti with the refinement of fine art printing techniques. Impact and Legacy of C/S II in Street Art and Pop Culture The impact and legacy of C/S II in street art and pop culture are significant. By bringing together two influential artists from different generations, the print bridges the early days of Los Angeles graffiti and the contemporary street art scene. It reflects the genre's evolution, showing how it can be a personal means of expression and a sophisticated art form. The print’s aesthetic, marked by the interplay of Bojorquez’s calligraphic skill and Slick’s graphic sensibility, exemplifies the potential of street art to engage with broader artistic movements and to be recognized in the wider context of pop art. As a piece of street pop and graffiti artwork, C/S II is a powerful example of the genre’s ability to adapt and grow while retaining its core principles.

California Graffiti Street Pop Artwork

The Vibrancy of California's Street Pop Art and Graffiti Scene

California, a state known for its vibrant culture and diverse populace, has long been a canvas for a rich tapestry of street pop art and graffiti artwork. The walls of its bustling cities tell stories through murals, tags, and stencils, each a piece of a giant cultural puzzle. From the historic graffiti lanes in Los Angeles to the politically charged murals of San Francisco, California's urban landscape serves as a dynamic backdrop for artists to express their creativity, dissent, and hopes. This artistic fervor is not merely a modern phenomenon; it traces back to the state's Chicano mural movement of the 1960s and 70s, which saw walls become the voice of the marginalized, the canvas for social change. Today, the state's graffiti art continues to evolve, with artists like RETNA (Marquis Lewis), Shepard Fairey, and COCO 144 (Ulysses Dove) contributing to a continuously unfolding narrative. These artists, known for their distinctive styles and contributions to street art's visual and cultural dialogue, come from diverse backgrounds but share the Californian experience in their work.

California as a Cultural Hub for Street Pop Art

As one delves deeper into the Californian street art scene, it becomes apparent that the state is a melting pot of artistic styles, including street pop art - a genre that combines street art techniques with pop art subjects. This genre has been blossoming on the West Coast, with California being a fertile ground for its growth. Cities like Los Angeles, San Diego, and Oakland have become galleries without walls, where street pop art exists and thrives. In these urban spaces, the art form has found a welcoming community that champions its existence and evolution. The murals and installations that adorn the streets of California's cities reflect many influences, from the Golden State's cinematic legacy to its technological frontiers, echoing California's role as a trendsetter in various domains. Artists have utilized street pop art to comment on the state's socio-political climate, environmental challenges, and iconic status in the global imagination.

Legacy and Evolution of Graffiti Artwork in California

The trajectory of graffiti artwork in California is a narrative of change, resilience, and adaptation. The state's graffiti began as a form of street-level communication, with roots in tagging and traditional graffiti, but has since expanded into complex, muralistic works that rival the finesse of fine art. This expansion has seen artists like David Choe and the late Mike "Dream" Francisco transform graffiti into a respected art form capable of conveying profound messages and commanding high economic value. The evolution of California's graffiti has been documented and celebrated in various venues, from street corners to sophisticated art galleries and museums, indicating a shift in perception towards this art form. However, the essence of graffiti as a tool for unfiltered expression remains intact, with the state's streets continuing to serve as a battleground for issues of public space, art, and freedom of speech. California's role in the global street art scene is as significant as it is complex. The state's artists have been instrumental in pushing the boundaries of street pop art and graffiti, both in form and substance. This has established California as a significant node in the international street art network, influencing and being influenced by global trends and dialogues. The state's unique cultural and geographical landscape has allowed for a diverse range of expressions within street art, ensuring that its walls will continue to be a place of conversation, innovation, and reflection for artists and audiences alike. The legacy of street art in California is one of diversity, innovation, and unceasing evolution, a testament to the state's standing as a cultural powerhouse.
