  • Cruiser Red Skateboard Art Deck by Gats- Graffiti Against The System

    Gats- Graffiti Against The System Cruiser Red Skateboard Art Deck by Gats- Graffiti Against The System

    Cruiser- Red Fine Art Limited Edition Screen Print on Wood Skateboard Deck by Street Artwork Graffiti Artist Gats- Graffiti Against The System. 2018 Rare Edition of 25 Skateboard Deck. SpokeArt produced cruiser by GATS PTV for ComplexCon 2018 Red Edition of 25 Screen Printed Skate Deck Size: 9" x 32" from Oakland, CA. The Artistic Revolution on Wheels: "Cruiser - Red" by GATS The "Cruiser - -Red" skateboard deck, a limited edition piece by the street artist GATS, is a symbolic piece that showcases the fusion of street pop art & graffiti artwork with the cultural phenomenon of skateboarding. Produced by SpokeArt for ComplexCon in 2018, this rare collectible is one of only 25 pieces, making it an exclusive acquisition for art collectors and skate enthusiasts. This unique screen print on wood measures 9 inches by 32 inches and originates from Oakland, CA, a city known for its rich street art scene. GATS, an acronym for Graffiti Against The System, is an artist whose identity remains as enigmatic as the masked figures that populate his works. His art is a social commentary, often touching upon anonymity, freedom, and resistance against societal structures. The "Cruiser - Red" deck features a striking red background that amplifies the intricate black and white illustration, a hallmark of GATS' distinctive style. The central motif – a pair of eyes within a mask – is a recurring element in GATS' work, symbolizing the gaze of the disenfranchised and the overlooked. The screen print on wood infuses the skateboard deck with a dual nature: a functional object meant to traverse the urban landscape and a portable canvas that carries the weight of a message. This duality encapsulates the essence of street art – its mobility, accessibility, and ability to engage with the public in a dialogue about the space it occupies. Collectible Artistry: GATS' "Cruiser - Red" in the Pantheon of Pop Art In the pantheon of contemporary art, "Cruiser-Red" by GATS occupies a unique position. The limited edition nature of the piece – with only 25 in existence – elevates it from a mere object to a sought-after piece of collectible art. Each skateboard deck is a testament to the artist's commitment to creating art that is not only visually compelling but also scarce and special. A deep understanding of graffiti's cultural and political undertones characterizes GATS's artistry. His work on the "Cruiser - Red" deck celebrates the defiant spirit of street art and its ability to communicate complex messages through simple yet powerful imagery. The deck serves not just as a piece of art to be hung on a wall but as a statement piece that challenges the conventions of what constitutes fine art. GATS' choice of medium – a skateboard deck – is a nod to the subversive culture of skateboarding, which, much like street art, has its roots in the fringes of society, embodying a sense of rebellion and nonconformity. The "Cruiser-Red" is thus more than an object; it's a cultural artifact that captures the spirit of its time and the ethos of its creator. Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork: The Movement and the Medium Street pop art & graffiti artwork is a movement that blurs the lines between illicit street graffiti and the curated spaces of galleries. Artists like GATS bridge this divide by creating works capable of existing in both realms. The "Cruiser-Red" is a prime example of this crossover, a piece that carries the raw edge of street graffiti into the world of fine art collecting. The artwork speaks to a broader audience, drawing in those who might not traditionally engage with graffiti and inviting them to appreciate the nuances of this vibrant art form. The limited edition "Cruiser-Red" is more than a mere expression; it is a physical embodiment of the artist's message, a medium through which GATS communicates his worldview. In owning a piece like the "Cruiser-Red," collectors hold a snapshot of the artist's narrative, a piece of the conversation that GATS is having with the world through his art. It is an ever-evolving narrative, much like the streets from which it was born and the culture it represents. In the realm of street pop art & graffiti artwork, GATS' "Cruiser - -Red" is a landmark creation. It encapsulates the essence of street art – its vibrancy, immediacy, and ability to convey profound messages in the most unexpected places. Through works like the "Cruiser-Red," the conversation about what art can be and where it can exist continues, as does the legacy of artists who dare to make their marks on the world.

Eyes

The Symbolic Representation of Eyes in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork

Eyes have long been a captivating subject in art and symbolism, and their representation in street pop art and graffiti artwork is no exception. In these expressive forms, eyes are not just visual elements; they carry deep meanings and reflect the artists' perspectives on various themes. Street artists often utilize the imagery of eyes to convey emotions, social commentary, or political statements, making them a powerful tool for expression in public spaces. In street art, the eye can be a mirror to the soul of a city, reflecting its hidden stories and unspoken truths. The use of eyes in street pop art and graffiti takes on various forms and styles, from realistic depictions to abstract interpretations. Some artists may use eyes to create a sense of connection with the viewer, drawing them into a dialogue with the artwork. Others may use them to challenge societal norms or to bring attention to overlooked issues. The gaze of the eye in these artworks can be confronting, questioning, or empathetic, depending on the artist's intention. In many instances, the representation of eyes in street art goes beyond mere aesthetics. It can be a form of resistance or protest, a way for artists to assert their presence in a rapidly changing urban environment. In cities marked by gentrification and commercialization, the eyes in street art can symbolize the watchful gaze of the community, a reminder of the human stories and histories that permeate these spaces.

Integration of Eyes in Modern Street Pop Art Movements

In contemporary street pop art movements, the depiction of eyes is often integrated with other pop culture elements, creating a blend of the familiar and the surreal. This juxtaposition can highlight the absurdity of certain aspects of modern life or comment on the pervasive nature of media and surveillance in our society. The use of vibrant colors and bold lines, typical of pop art, adds to the impact of these depictions, making them stand out in the urban landscape. Moreover, the eye motif in graffiti artwork has evolved with new techniques and materials. Artists now have access to various tools for more detailed and intricate representations. This has led to a diversification in the style and execution of eye-themed street art, with some artists achieving photorealistic effects.
In contrast, others experiment with more abstract or stylized approaches. The influence of digital media and technology is also evident in how street art portrays eyes. Digital techniques enable artists to create more complex and layered compositions, blending traditional graffiti with digital imagery. This fusion broadens the scope of street art and allows artists to reach wider audiences through social media and digital platforms.

Impact of Eye Imagery on Public Perception and Engagement

The impact of eye imagery in street pop art and graffiti on public perception and engagement is significant. Eyes in street art often act as focal points, drawing the attention of passersby and inviting them to engage with the artwork. They can evoke emotions, from empathy and curiosity to discomfort and introspection. This emotional engagement is critical to the power of street art, as it creates a space for reflection and dialogue within the public sphere. Furthermore, the universal symbolism of the eye allows these artworks to transcend cultural and linguistic barriers, making them accessible to a diverse audience. This universality is essential in urban environments where people from various backgrounds coexist. As a symbol, the eye can thus serve as a bridge between different communities, fostering a sense of shared experience and understanding.

The Continuing Evolution of Eye Imagery in Street Art

As street pop art and graffiti continue to evolve, the representation of eyes is likely to remain a prominent theme. With each new generation of artists, new interpretations and techniques will emerge, keeping the imagery fresh and relevant. The eye, in all its forms, will continue to be a powerful symbol in the lexicon of street artists, a testament to the enduring ability of art to reflect and shape our perceptions of the world around us. Whether as a window to the soul or a mirror of society, the eyes in street art will continue to captivate and inspire, reminding us of the power of visual expression in our everyday lives.
