Marchers White Silkscreen Print by Cleon Peterson 2 Color Hand-Pulled on Deckled Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. 2016 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 125 Artwork Size 13x34 Silkscreen Print of Tribal Men Carrying Bloody Swords Marching In Line. Marchers White by Cleon Peterson – Limited Edition Silkscreen in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Marchers White is a 2016 hand-pulled 2-color silkscreen print by American artist Cleon Peterson. This signed and numbered limited edition of 125 was printed on deckled fine art paper and measures 13 x 34 inches. It features a procession of six stylized, muscular figures in a uniform line, each carrying a blood-streaked sword draped across their shoulders. The artwork is a graphic portrayal of conformity and violence, rendered in Peterson’s iconic flattened silhouette style. With clean lines and bold simplicity, the figures march in lockstep across a stark white background, forming a visual rhythm that mimics propaganda friezes and ancient relief carvings. The use of gold and red ink intensifies the contrast between elegance and brutality, a hallmark of Peterson’s visual language. Symbolism of Power, Violence, and Uniformity In Marchers White, Peterson explores the mechanization of power and the erosion of individuality within systems of control. Each figure appears identical, stripped of personal identity and locked in a hypnotic march. The red-tipped blades suggest recent violence or continuous bloodshed, reinforcing the idea that aggression has become routine, even ceremonial. The figures’ nudity, stylized musculature, and emotionless posture evoke primal force restrained within a ritual of obedience. The repeated form not only recalls ancient military parades or mythic processions, but also comments on contemporary structures of state, surveillance, and oppression. The absence of background or contextual setting forces viewers to focus entirely on the figures and their choreography, placing the act of violence and conformity at the center of the narrative. Cleon Peterson’s Allegorical Voice in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Cleon Peterson is known internationally for creating visual allegories that depict lawlessness, domination, and moral inversion. His works pull from classical art history, political propaganda, and modern editorial illustration to construct a world in collapse—where traditional boundaries between good and evil are blurred. Marchers White reflects Peterson’s ongoing examination of systemic violence and institutional complicity. While minimal in execution, the work functions as a complex statement on the banality of authoritarianism. It belongs squarely within the lineage of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, as it utilizes bold, graphic style to engage in socio-political critique. Peterson does not romanticize rebellion or glorify power—instead, he presents viewers with unfiltered snapshots of a dystopian order wrapped in seductive aesthetics. Printmaking Technique and Collector Value The Marchers White edition is crafted with the precision and attention to detail that characterizes Cleon Peterson’s fine art practice. Printed using a 2-color silkscreen method on heavyweight deckled fine art paper, the physical quality of the piece matches its conceptual weight. The crisp edges of the figures and the subtle texture of the ink application reflect a high standard of printmaking. Each print is individually signed and numbered, securing its authenticity and positioning it as a significant work within Peterson’s catalog. For collectors of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, Marchers White stands as a poignant artifact of modern discontent—a visually arresting and politically charged piece that underscores the silent march of violence accepted as structure.

Known for his vivid depictions of brutal scenes that reflect a world in chaos, Peterson is widely recognized as a significant figure in the realms of pop art, street art, and graffiti art. His work often provides a haunting mirror to societal tensions, rendering them visually captivating through the stark contrast between light and dark, order and chaos, violence and peace. One piece that exemplifies this distinctive style is his "Promised Land Night" silkscreen print. True to Peterson's style, the work explores the darker facets of human nature in a dichromatic palette - typically a stark contrast of black and white or, in this case, dark navy blue and white. It showcases figures engaged in what appears to be a chaotic, violent struggle, as a symbol of the perpetual conflict and power dynamics within societies. Despite its seemingly bleak narrative, the composition carries an undeniable magnetism, skillfully drawing the viewer in. The silkscreen print method, known for its bold, crisp lines and the ability to create vibrant, flat areas of color, serves Peterson's style perfectly. It underscores the harsh narrative of his work while simultaneously highlighting the meticulous detail of his composition. Each figure, while entangled in the wider chaos, holds its narrative, rendering the piece a compelling visual exploration of societal unrest. The "Promised Land Night" speaks volumes of Peterson's vision of the world – not shying away from harsh realities, but rather confronting and examining them through his artwork. With the ever-present contrast between the stark visual style and the dark themes, Peterson positions himself firmly in the continuum of pop and street art, challenging viewers to consider the depths of human nature and societal structures. It is through such bold pieces that Cleon Peterson cements his place in contemporary art, forever pushing boundaries and igniting necessary conversations about society and its structures.

Money and Power- White Hand-Pulled 1-Color Silkscreen Print on Hand Deckled 290gsm Arches Rag Paper by Artist Cleon Peterson Limited Edition Art Artwork. 2022 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 75 Artwork Size 18x18 "Money and Power have become primary drivers in the modern world, pushing us toward a corrupt society. The days when our leaders looked out for the people's interests have become a thing of the past—replaced by the strong man who squashes the voices of dissent to set things straight. Money elects leaders; in return, they owe a debt to the people that put them in Power—enacting our new public policy of greed and gangster capitalism. We slowly accept corruption, Law slowly fades away, and people begin to feel like democracy and a fair and equitable society were always just an illusion, a dream from the past that never really even existed." -Cleon Peterson Money and Power by Cleon Peterson – White Edition of a Stark Political Allegory in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Money and Power by Cleon Peterson is a 2022 signed and numbered hand-pulled silkscreen print, produced in a limited edition of 75. Measuring 18x18 inches and printed in black ink on pristine white 290gsm Arches rag paper with hand-deckled edges, this piece delivers a powerful statement using minimalism to reveal the mechanics of authoritarian control and capitalist dominance. The design features three militarized figures marching in unison beneath a dollar-sign emblazoned banner. Each figure salutes with one hand while gripping a weapon in the other, marching in lockstep toward a future defined not by democracy or justice, but by obedience to power shaped through wealth. The precision of the stark black-on-white imagery reinforces the rigidity and dehumanization portrayed, highlighting the shift from collective governance to capitalist-driven authoritarianism. Cleon Peterson’s American Vision of Modern Power Structures Cleon Peterson, an American artist born in 1973, is renowned for his distinctive graphic style that merges the brutal directness of street art with a pop art sensibility. His works are not decorative—they are confrontational, morally urgent, and reflective of systemic violence. Money and Power exemplifies Peterson’s ability to distill complex socio-political realities into singular, unforgettable images. This white edition removes any distraction and allows the viewer to focus entirely on the content and message. The absence of color echoes the perceived erasure of nuance in modern governance, where decisions are no longer dictated by ethical considerations but by financial allegiance. Peterson uses his background in design and graffiti to strip down the message to its essence—those who control money control the message, the law, and the people. Symbolism of Marching Figures and the Banner of Capital The figures in Money and Power are reduced to symbols of conformity and control. With robotic movements and identical expressions, they act not as protectors of the public, but as agents of a system that prioritizes wealth preservation over civic duty. The gun in each hand is not just a weapon—it is a metaphor for the threat that sustains the hierarchy. The saluting gesture, typically a sign of honor or loyalty, is here rendered as a chilling submission to corrupt ideology. Above them, the banner with a dollar sign takes the place of national or moral symbols, declaring money as the new flag under which modern societies march. This image captures what Peterson describes as gangster capitalism—an economy and government fused into a singular corrupt force that erodes public agency and the very foundation of democracy. Money and Power as a Landmark of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork This edition of Money and Power exists as both a work of fine art and a political poster, calling attention to the social decay born of greed and power consolidation. It stands firmly within the tradition of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, using accessible imagery to convey truths that are often ignored or downplayed in institutional settings. Peterson’s decision to limit the edition to 75 hand-pulled prints adds gravity to its message, making each piece a personal call to awareness and resistance. As street art evolved from rebellion to collectible, artists like Peterson have held firm to the medium’s roots—using public-facing visuals to voice dissent. This piece does not seek to comfort or beautify, but to warn. It captures a world where money no longer funds democracy but replaces it, revealing a cycle where power begets power and the people are simply marched along.

The composition depicts a warrior atop a horse, brandishing a bloody sword, and rendered entirely in black ink on a white background. This limited-edition work, signed and numbered by the artist, was released during the California fires of January 2025, adding an urgent layer of resonance to its themes of destruction and survival. Cleon Peterson’s Signature Style and Themes Cleon Peterson is renowned for his graphic, monochromatic approach, using stark contrasts to create impactful visuals. The Return Black exemplifies his distinctive style, where bold, simplified forms carry complex narratives. The central figure—a muscular, faceless warrior—symbolizes themes of conquest, chaos, and resilience, evoking both awe and unease. Peterson’s work often examines the darker aspects of human nature, and this piece is no exception. The pairing of the imposing warrior with the elegance of the horse creates a dichotomy that reflects the tension between power and vulnerability, a recurring theme in his body of work. Design and Symbolism in The Return Black The design of The Return Black is a study in contrasts, with the deep black ink creating a commanding presence against the stark white background. The warrior’s raised sword, dripping with blood, serves as a focal point, emphasizing themes of violence and dominance. The horse, rendered in Peterson’s signature minimalist style, adds motion and grandeur to the composition, while its positioning conveys both strength and submission. The hand-deckled edges of the fine art paper lend an artisanal quality to the piece, grounding its contemporary aesthetic in traditional craftsmanship. This juxtaposition mirrors the artwork’s narrative tension, where triumph and turmoil coexist. Context and Collectibility Released during the California fires of January 2025, The Return Black gains additional poignancy as it reflects themes of destruction and endurance in the face of adversity. This limited-edition print, with its exclusive run signed and numbered by Peterson, holds significant value for collectors of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork. The use of silkscreen printing ensures a rich, tactile quality that enhances the artwork’s visual impact. As both a reflection of modern societal struggles and a timeless commentary on the human condition, The Return Black stands as a powerful addition to Peterson’s oeuvre and a compelling piece for contemporary art enthusiasts.

The layout underscores a sense of confrontation and collaboration between opposing forces. This duality mirrors how Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork can be both visually arresting and socially engaging.

Orientations of the Night I Silkscreen Print by Cleon Peterson on Hand Deckled 290gsm Coventry Rag Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork. 2025 Signed & Numbered Cleon Peterson Limited Edition of 50 Artwork Size 12x16 Silkscreen Print. Orientations of the Night I by Cleon Peterson Orientations of the Night I is a 2025 silkscreen print created by contemporary American artist Cleon Peterson. Produced as a signed and numbered limited edition of 50 on hand-deckled 290gsm Coventry Rag fine art paper, this artwork measures 12 by 16 inches. With a stark contrast of black and white figures on a shimmering gold background, the piece speaks to Peterson’s longstanding exploration of dominance, submission, and the conflict between order and chaos. Known for his unsettling yet elegant style, Peterson crafts a visual language that feels both timeless and urgent, aligning with the tradition of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork that pushes political and psychological boundaries. Visual Style and Symbolic Structure The print features Peterson’s signature figures rendered in flat silhouettes with smooth yet aggressive curves. In Orientations of the Night I, a black figure and a white figure are locked in a visually intense and ambiguous pose, emphasizing power dynamics and emotional tension. The golden backdrop contrasts sharply with the monochromatic bodies, heightening the theatricality and symbolic charge of the scene. The composition captures a sense of fluid motion and struggle while maintaining a rigid, almost classical structure. Peterson’s use of minimalism, symmetry, and stark abstraction invites viewers to question what they see and how they interpret conflict and vulnerability. Medium and Production Created using a traditional silkscreen process, this print reflects Peterson’s meticulous control over production. The gold background, layered beneath matte black and bright white inks, is printed on Coventry Rag paper, which is known for its archival quality and soft, deckled edges. This choice of materials not only enhances the visual impact but also reinforces the historical connection between fine art and street culture, where silk screening has long served as a vehicle for political posters, zines, and graffiti-based messages. The limited edition nature of the piece heightens its status within the Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork world, transforming a graphic aesthetic into a collectible fine art object. Cleon Peterson’s Role in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Cleon Peterson, born in the United States, has built a distinct and confrontational visual voice in contemporary art. His work draws from both classical composition and raw, urban immediacy. While not traditionally a graffiti writer, his practice is rooted in the spirit of street art, using visual boldness and social critique to question power, justice, and societal control. His figures are often seen in dystopian scenarios where authority and resistance clash violently. Orientations of the Night I embodies this duality, depicting a struggle that feels psychological, mythological, and institutional all at once. The piece is a reflection of Peterson’s ongoing interest in exploring systems of dominance and the thin line between protection and oppression within modern life. Through his precise technique and symbolic storytelling, Peterson continues to contribute to the evolving discourse of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork with uncompromising force.

Money and Power- Yellow Hand-Pulled 1-Color Silkscreen Print on Hand Deckled 290gsm Arches Rag Paper by Artist Cleon Peterson Limited Edition Art Artwork. 2022 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 75 Artwork Size 18x18 "Money and Power have become primary drivers in the modern world, pushing us toward a corrupt society. The days when our leaders looked out for the people's interests have become a thing of the past—replaced by the strong man who squashes the voices of dissent to set things straight. Money elects leaders; in return, they owe a debt to the people that put them in Power—enacting our new public policy of greed and gangster capitalism. We slowly accept corruption, Law slowly fades away, and people begin to feel like democracy and a fair and equitable society were always just an illusion, a dream from the past that never really even existed." -Cleon Peterson Money and Power by Cleon Peterson – Yellow Edition Silkscreen Print in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Money and Power by Cleon Peterson is a visually forceful hand-pulled 1-color silkscreen print produced in a striking yellow edition. Created in 2022 as a signed and numbered limited edition of only 75, this 18x18 inch artwork is printed on 290gsm Arches rag paper with hand-deckled edges, reinforcing its raw and crafted authenticity. Set against a saturated yellow background, the black silhouettes of uniformed figures march in unison beneath a banner marked with a dollar sign. This aggressive formation of faceless, weapon-bearing agents symbolizes how capital and authority have become intertwined forces shaping modern life. The contrast of black on yellow sharpens the urgency of the message, evoking caution signs and industrial warnings, reflecting the dangers of unchecked power. It is a bold statement, stark and deliberately unambiguous in its critique of political and economic systems. Cleon Peterson’s Visual Protest Against Gangster Capitalism American artist Cleon Peterson, born in 1973, has become known for creating art that exposes the mechanics of dominance, submission, and systemic violence. In Money and Power, Peterson addresses what he terms gangster capitalism—the merging of financial interest and authoritarianism. This yellow edition is not merely an aesthetic variation; it magnifies the intensity of the warning. The figures are rendered without individuality, acting not as civil servants or protectors but as enforcers of a corrupt economic order. Each character, with one hand saluting and the other gripping a firearm, marches without deviation under a banner where money is the emblem. Peterson’s use of militarized repetition critiques the dehumanization that occurs when loyalty is bought and dissent is extinguished by force. The visual simplicity masks a deeply complex message: society has drifted from democratic ideals into a structure where the value of life is weighed against the price of power. Symbolism and Execution in the Yellow Silkscreen Edition This edition’s choice of yellow background plays a crucial role in reinforcing the thematic content. Yellow, typically associated with visibility and warning, brings a harsh clarity to the disturbing unity of the figures. It forces the viewer to confront the image directly, without distraction or ambiguity. The hand-pulled technique and 1-color silkscreen process ensure that each print carries the physical presence of the artist’s vision, resisting digital detachment. Hand-deckled paper adds an organic imperfection that contrasts with the mechanical rigidity of the marchers, underscoring the tension between individual craftsmanship and institutional conformity. The entire composition operates as a visual manifesto, presenting a world where money is not simply a tool but a banner under which violence, obedience, and corruption are normalized. Money and Power as a Defining Work in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Money and Power belongs squarely in the tradition of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. It communicates political urgency through direct visual language, staying rooted in the protest origins of graffiti and the bold iconography of pop art. Peterson’s work challenges systems of authority by confronting viewers with uncomfortable truths, using art not for decoration but for disruption. This yellow edition distills contemporary disillusionment into one unforgettable image, showing how democracy erodes when capital becomes the highest power. As with all of Peterson’s most impactful works, it does not ask for quiet reflection—it demands awareness and accountability. It stands as a limited yet forceful artifact of protest, frozen in print but echoing across modern political consciousness.

Divided We Stand, United We Fall Hand-Pulled 2-Color Silkscreen Print on Hand Deckled 290gsm Coventry Rag Paper by Artist Cleon Peterson Limited Edition Pop Art Artwork. 2022 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of XXX Artwork Size 18x24 "The TRUTH image ran in the New York Times right before the election in the opinion feature, What Have We Lost. The Devil Made Me Do it & Divided We Stand, United We Fall were both made on January 6th in response to the Faustian bargain that Trump and his accomplices made in designing the coup. Today we find ourselves at a crossroads; now, more than ever, is the time we need to come together, take a stand, exercise our voices, and fight for Truth and Democracy. Hopefully, daylight will cast off this right-wing authoritarian spell. I see these posters as markers of a historical time and feel a duty within to share my views. We’re all exhausted by politics, but we must embrace the moment and take action because the threat is fundamental; our democracy could be gone in the blink of an eye." - Cleon Peterson The connection of Peterson with street art is also an aspect of his work worth mentioning. Even though he has created numerous murals all over the world, the artist himself does consider himself a street artist: “I don’t think of myself as a street artist or somebody that does work in that vein, but I love the idea of doing large paintings that confront people.”. This is revealing of his motivation to make his art as accessible as possible, as a way to invite the viewers to interact with it and confront the subjects the artist is interested in addressing. This brings up the following questions concerning the art of Peterson: “What is the meaning of it? Does it have a meaning after all? If yes, is this pre-determined by the artist? In order to better understand the way meaning is created in the world of Cleon Peterson, it is essential to, primarily, understand the way he perceives the media as a field of allegations, unbased rumors, suppositions and outright lies. In the world that the artist has created and, in correlation with our own reality, media is a tool of manipulation in the hands of politicians, leaving us helpless and in the mercy of an exploitative authoritarian system.

The Reflection Black Silkscreen Print by Cleon Peterson on Hand Deckled 290gsm Coventry Rag Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork. 2021 Signed & Numbered Cleon Peterson Limited Edition of 125 Artwork Size 39X16 Silkscreen Print. The Limited Edition Silkscreen Art of Cleon Peterson Cleon Peterson's artistry is a powerful voice in the contemporary discourse of street pop and graffiti artwork. His 2021 creation, "The Reflection," is a testament to his distinct style and thematic concerns. This piece is a limited edition silkscreen print, with only 125 pieces available, each bearing Peterson's signature, which adds to the exclusivity and collectible nature of the artwork. These prints are emblazoned on hand-deckled 290gsm Coventry Rag fine art paper, known for its durability and premium quality, ensuring that each piece retains its depth and texture, which is significant in street art representation. The Aesthetic of "The Reflection" Cleon Peterson's "The Reflection" is visually striking, echoing the high-contrast aesthetic typical of street art. Black silkscreen ink gives the artwork a bold, graphic quality reminiscent of the dynamic visuals found in urban graffiti. At 39x16 inches, the print's substantial size allows viewers to immerse themselves in its stark world. Peterson employs a monochromatic palette, which adds visual impact and underscores the thematic dualities often explored in his work—order and chaos, violence and harmony, and power and subjugation. Peterson's composition places a solitary figure against an expanse of tumultuous landscape, a mountainous terrain that seems both majestic and oppressive. The use of negative space and the sharp delineation between the figure and its environment draws attention to the isolation of the individual within the space, a theme often explored in both street and pop art as they grapple with the individual's place in society. Context and Influence The artistic milieu from which "The Reflection" emerges is rich with historical and cultural significance. Cleon Peterson, an American artist, is renowned for his assertive approach that borrows street and pop art elements. His works do not shy away from the complexities of societal structures, often depicting scenes of conflict and strife that force the viewer to confront the darker aspects of human nature and societal interactions. Peterson's art does not exist in a vacuum but is part of a larger conversation about the nature of modern life and the individual's experience within it. By drawing on the motifs and methods of street art, which is historically linked to subversive and anti-establishment sentiments, Peterson's art challenges viewers to reconsider their perceptions of authority, community, and the self. The graffiti art form's traditional use of public spaces as a canvas is reflected in Peterson's choice to use silkscreen printing, a technique synonymous with the mass production and dissemination of images, thus merging the realms of high art and public discourse.
