Dated 2020, this exclusive artwork, available in only 250 signed and numbered editions, measures 17x24.5 inches, marking its significance in the realm of contemporary art. Delving into the details, the artwork portrays Elizabeth II, the Queen of England, in a provocative and almost demonic style. This avant-garde representation draws heavily from Reid's previous creations, especially his emblematic work for the Sex Pistols - "God Save The Queen." Notably, in "Queen In Blood Diamonds Negative," the Queen is adorned with the same blood diamond crown that she was pictured wearing for her 1977 Jubilee. This crown, beyond its historical significance, provides a visual linkage between Reid's iconic past work and this contemporary piece. The origins of this piece are rooted in Reid's collaboration for the Scorzayzee record titled 'Great Britain'. The artwork's integration of the phrase "God Save Great Britain" further reinforces its socio-political commentary, a hallmark of Reid's style. The work's debut at the Art Car Boot Fair speaks volumes about its place in modern pop and street art. Its edgy appearance, combined with Reid's historic association with punk aesthetics, ensures that "Queen In Blood Diamonds Negative" stands out as an emblematic representation of the ongoing dialogue between monarchy, pop culture, and societal critique in the realms of street and graffiti art.

    Woman 84 Green Orange Original Oil Painting by Peter Keil One of a Kind Artwork on Framed Masonite Panel by The Wild Man of Berlin,  a Famous Contemporary Artist. 1984 Signed by Peter Keil & Dated Oil Painting on Masonite Panel Original Artwork Size 16.5x24.5. All of Peter Keil's Art Used Thick Paint & Some Paint Flaking May Be Present Due to the Age and Nature of His Work. Painting of Green & Orange Long-Haired Stylistic Women Head Bust. Embracing the Vivid Essence of Peter Keil's Portraiture "Woman 84 Green Orange" is an original oil painting by Peter Keil, an artist famed for his energetic and dynamic style, often referred to as The Wild Man of Berlin. His 1984 creation is unique on a framed Masonite panel, showcasing his signature expressionist strokes. The artwork measures 16.5x24.5 inches and is a vibrant depiction of a woman's head bust, characterized by a vivid interplay of green and orange hues. Keil's signature and the date are prominently displayed, confirming the authenticity and period of this one-of-a-kind work. Peter Keil's artwork is renowned for its bold use of color and the impasto technique, where thick paint is applied to create a textured surface rich in depth and intensity. This particular painting, with its striking color contrasts and stylized representation, is a testament to Keil's ability to capture more than the physical likeness of his subjects. Instead, he conveys a sense of the subject's inner life, evoking emotion and narrative through the abstracted form. The Dynamic Influence of Street Pop Art and Graffiti on Keil's Work The influence of street pop art and graffiti artwork is evident in how Keil's "Woman 84 Green Orange" painting communicates directly and powerfully. The artwork is imbued with a sense of immediacy often found in street art, where the viewer is confronted with bold imagery in public spaces. Like much street art, Keil's painting is a visual spectacle and an interactive experience that invites the viewer to engage with the piece on a deeper level. As with many of Keil's works, the thick layers of paint have resulted in some flaking over the years, which adds to the character and story of the piece. This natural aging process is a reminder of the work's journey through time and is akin to the weathering of outdoor murals and graffiti, which often change and degrade as part of their life cycle. "Woman 84 Green Orange" by Peter Keil is a powerful embodiment of his artistic vision, merging street art's raw expression with the sophistication of oil painting. With its distinctive style and emotional resonance, Keil's work continues to captivate collectors and art lovers, securing his place as a notable figure in contemporary art.

Europe Graffiti Street Pop Artworks

Europe's Storied Walls: Narratives of Street Pop Art and Graffiti

Europe has long been a fertile ground for the flourishing of street pop art and graffiti, movements that have transformed the continent's urban landscapes into vibrant canvases that reflect the dynamism and diversity of its cultures. The genesis of street art in Europe can be traced back to the revolutionary spirit of 1968, when political graffiti began to appear on walls across the continent. This was not simply an act of rebellion but an assertion of voice and identity. As Europe's cities grew and changed, so did street art, evolving from simple tags to complex murals that spoke to various social and political issues.

Diversity of Styles Across European Cities

The diversity of styles in European street art is as varied as the continent itself. In cities like Berlin, the remnants of the Berlin Wall serve as a canvas for artists to explore themes of freedom and unity, while in Paris, street pop art often carries the aesthetic elegance associated with the city's artistic heritage. A blend of sharp British wit and commentary on contemporary culture marks London's urban art. Street art festivals across Europe have played a significant role in the cultural recognition of this art form. These events, such as Stavanger's Nuart in Norway or Upfest in Bristol, UK, celebrate the vibrancy of street art, attracting artists and enthusiasts from around the world and fostering a spirit of collaboration and community. European art movements have indelibly influenced street pop art and graffiti. From the Dadaists to the Surrealists, European artists have long challenged the status quo, a spirit reflected in the street art that adorns European cities today. This rich artistic heritage can be seen in the intricate stencils, provocative installations, and street artists' daring use of public spaces.

Social Commentary and the Public Voice

The streets of Europe have become forums for social commentary, with street art serving as the public voice on issues ranging from immigration to environmental concerns. The immediacy of street pop art and graffiti allows for a direct engagement with the audience, turning public spaces into places of reflection and debate. The future of European street art looks robust, with cities increasingly recognizing the value of this art form in enriching the cultural landscape and fostering tourism. As European street art continues to evolve, it has the potential for new narratives, innovative techniques, and continued dialogue with the public. In the sprawling tapestry of Europe's cities, street pop art and graffiti stand out as vibrant threads, weaving together stories of history, culture, and identity. These artworks serve not only to beautify the urban environment but also to challenge, communicate, and inspire. As an integral part of Europe's cultural scene, street pop art and graffiti will continue to shape and reflect the continent's complex narratives.
