Limited edition of 125 Hand-pulled 14 x 20.5” black on White screenprint on 290gsm Coventry Rag Paper with deckled edges. Signed and numbered. The visuality of Cleon Peterson's work is based on a variety of influences, from ancient Greek pottery to comics, resulting in monochromacy and strong color symbolism. In more detail, the figures exist on multiple straight lines, something that, subsequently, creates the illusion that the artwork is divided in levels. The perspective and the impression of depth do moderately exist in the art of Peterson and, just like in Greek vases, the background space is usually left empty or slightly embellished.

Police Shooting Black Silkscreen Print by Cleon Peterson on Hand Deckled 290gsm Coventry Rag Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork. 2015 Signed & Numbered Cleon Peterson Limited Edition of 150 Artwork Size 14x18 Silkscreen Print. Cleon Peterson's 2015 Silkscreen Print “Police Shooting Black” – A Stark Voice in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Cleon Peterson’s 2015 limited edition silkscreen print titled Police Shooting Black is a powerful example of politically charged Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork that holds nothing back. Printed on hand-deckled 290gsm Coventry Rag fine art paper, this 14 x 18 inch piece was released in a signed and numbered edition of 150. The print is rendered in stark black silhouette, showing a faceless police officer mid-strike over a defenseless figure on the ground. Peterson employs a style that is instantly recognizable—clean, aggressive, and intentionally stripped of detail to focus entirely on the narrative of power, submission, and societal conflict. It is more than a commentary. It is a visual confrontation. Cleon Peterson: American Artist With a Vision Rooted in Violence and Power Dynamics Cleon Peterson was born in 1973 in the United States and continues to create work that deeply engages with themes of chaos, institutional abuse, and systemic violence. A former street artist who has also worked in illustration and fashion, Peterson often centers his practice around the representation of violent struggle. His works are filled with archetypal figures that reenact the brutal power plays of modern society. Police Shooting Black stands out in his body of work not only for its limited edition fine art format but for its focused depiction of racialized police violence. It is not an ambiguous image. The figures speak with immediacy, channeling real-world incidents into high-contrast allegory. The facelessness of both the oppressor and the oppressed creates a disturbing universality, implicating systems rather than individuals. The Visual Economy of Violence in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork This print carries forward the street-level urgency found in graffiti while leveraging the formal control of screenprinting and gallery presentation. Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork often borrows visual language from commercial signage, propaganda, and rebellion, and Peterson’s work is no exception. The figures are iconographic, each line intentional, each silhouette loaded with symbolic weight. Peterson reduces the image to its emotional and psychological core, amplifying the sense of dehumanization and systemic brutality. The use of black-and-white further enforces the emotional starkness while refusing to distract with color. Every inch of the composition is confrontational and calculated to provoke response, conversation, and discomfort. Coventry Rag Paper and Silkscreen Technique as Mediums of Resistance The use of 290gsm Coventry Rag paper—known for its archival quality and textured surface—adds gravity and permanence to what might otherwise feel like a transitory protest image. Silkscreen printing, traditionally used in mass production, is elevated here as a fine art method, offering precision and boldness while still invoking its underground and street origins. Peterson’s choice of material and medium serves to highlight the duality in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork: existing between gallery walls and political walls, between collectability and dissent. Each print is hand-deckled, giving it an edge—literally and figuratively—that speaks to the raw emotion and crafted message embedded in the work.

Coco Chanel Riskoleum Artwork Giclee Limited Edition Print on Coventry Rag Archival Paper by Pop Culture Graffiti Artist Risk. AP Artist Proof Signed & Marked AP Giclee Print on Coventry Rag Archival Paper. A special commission print for LA Fashion week 2017, dated 2016. Hand-signed & numbered. 18x14in Riskoleum: Fashion Meets Graffiti in a Limited Edition Tribute The Coco Chanel Riskoleum limited edition print by graffiti pioneer Kelly Graval, known as Risk, captures the energy of fashion and street culture in one striking composition. Created as a special commission for LA Fashion Week 2017, the piece merges the high-fashion elegance of Chanel with the gritty authenticity of spray can iconography. Measuring 18 by 14 inches and printed on Coventry Rag archival paper, this artist proof giclée is hand-signed and marked AP, reflecting the collectible nature of both the subject and the medium. In classic Risk style, it transforms a utilitarian object—the spray can—into a canvas for fashion commentary. Risk’s Signature Fusion of Color and Culture Risk emerged from the graffiti scene in Los Angeles during the 1980s and became a central figure in bringing graffiti from the streets into galleries. His work often plays with the aesthetics of branding, color theory, and popular symbolism. The Riskoleum series, a parody of commercial paint brands, is one of his most recognizable contributions to the crossover of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork into the mainstream art world. With the Coco Chanel edition, Risk injects luxury into this urban framework, blending the iconic elegance of Chanel with the rawness of aerosol culture. The spray can becomes a metaphor for self-expression, empowerment, and redefinition of style. The Dialogue Between Fashion and Graffiti The artwork does more than just feature the Chanel name. It represents how graffiti artists have reimagined traditional fashion tropes through the lens of street culture. The stencil-style layering, color fields, and spray techniques used in the Riskoleum format contrast sharply with the legacy of haute couture. Yet, it is precisely this tension that gives the work its power. The overlay of Coco Chanel’s influence on a street tool of expression invites reflection on how style evolves from both sidewalk and runway. Risk shows that graffiti and high fashion are not opposites, but collaborators in a new visual era. A Celebrated Edition for Collectors and Culture Enthusiasts As an artist proof from a limited run, this Coco Chanel Riskoleum print stands as both a critique and celebration. Commissioned for a prominent fashion event, it connects the world of design with the rebellious edge of graffiti. Printed on Coventry Rag paper using archival inks, the giclée process gives depth and longevity to the piece, while preserving the vibrant layers that Risk is known for. The work is not just a visual pun—it is a statement about individuality, beauty, and the power of art to cross cultural boundaries. Risk continues to shape the conversation around Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, proving once again that style can be both sprayed and sewn.
