    Denial- Daniel Bombardier Libertee Archival Print by Denial- Daniel Bombardier

    Libertee- Welcome Wall Archival Pigment Print on Metal with Etched Acrylic Base Sculpture Artwork by graffiti street artist modern pop legend artist Denial. 2020 Signed Limited Edition of 100 Artwork Sculpture Size 4x8 DENIAL is a Canadian artist whose work critiques consumerism and the human condition. Though based in Windsor Ontario, DENIAL spends much of the year traveling and exhibiting throughout Canada and the USA, having done solo shows in Los Angeles, Chicago, Detroit, New York, Toronto, and Vancouver. Denial’s art is strongly political and social since the artist takes specific positions against issues, such as capitalism, consumer culture, and advertisements. More importantly, the artist is aware of his choices and motivations: “I like to think of myself as activist pop art. How I relate with cartoons and graphics is a lot easier than I do with photo-realistic stuff" Another aspect of Denial's work is humor. His work is satirical, which, by definition, means that it uses humor as a confronting mechanism.

  • Dangerous When Wet Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber Gold 1 Dangerous When Wet Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber Gold 2

    Saber Dangerous When Wet Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber

    Dangerous When Wet Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber Original Permanent Marker Art Drawing on Glossy Flame Sticker by Graffiti Artist Modern Street Artwork. 2020 Signed Original Slap Up Graffiti Art Tag 4x4 Marker Tagged on Dangerous When Wet Label Uline S-176 Sticker.  Slap Up In Perfect Condition. Challenging Conventions with Street Pop Art The "Dangerous When Wet Label Uline S-176 Sticker" series, created by the renowned graffiti artist Saber, whose birth name is Ryan Weston Shook, stands as a compelling intersection of street art innovation and cautionary messaging. Saber's 2020 collection of 4x4 marker-tagged artworks embodies the essence of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork, repurposing warning labels meant to signify potential danger into canvases that question and provoke thought about the inherent risks in our daily lives and the nature of perceived threats. Fluidity and Permanence in Saber's Art The warning labels Saber selects are traditionally designed to alert individuals of the immediate physical dangers of substances that react with water. However, by incorporating his signature tag into these labels, Saber invites a dialogue on the fluidity of art and its ability to leave a permanent mark on both the physical and cultural landscapes. Through tagging, these stickers, which once served a single helpful purpose, are now transformed into a statement on the juxtaposition of danger and beauty, impermanence and endurance. This speaks to the heart of graffiti's ethos – creating art that can withstand the elements, much like the substances the original labels warn against. Saber and the Assertion of Artistic Presence Each signed original slap-up graffiti art tag is a declaration of presence, asserting the artist's voice in a reserved space for warnings and prohibitions. The choice of the 'Dangerous When Wet' sticker is especially resonant in the year it was created, a year fraught with global challenges where the metaphorical concept of being 'dangerous when wet' could be extended to the idea of ideas, movements, and expressions that gain momentum and power when combined with the elements of social and political change. In exploring this theme, Saber utilizes the language of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork to navigate the complexities of communication in public spaces. His work demands recognition for its aesthetic appeal and its ability to engage with and transform the messages embedded within our environments. As a respected figure in street art, Saber continues to push the boundaries of how art can interact with and alter the fabric of society. Each piece he creates is not just an artwork; it is a challenge, a question, and a statement rolled into one, symbolic of the power and potential of street art to recontextualize and redefine the symbols surrounding us.

Fire Graffiti Street Pop Artwork

The Influence of Fire in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork

As an element, fire has been a powerful symbol in various forms of artistic expression due to its inherent energy and transformative nature. In street pop art and graffiti artwork, fire is employed as a physical medium and a thematic representation, reflecting passion, destruction, change, and rebirth. This exploration of fire in street and graffiti art reveals the depth of this element as a motif and its versatility in communicating the urgent, often raw messages characteristic of these art forms.

Symbolism and Themes of Fire in Graffiti Artwork

Graffiti art, known for its vibrant, illicit charm, often utilizes the symbol of fire to portray intense emotions and societal issues. Artists like Jean-Michel Basquiat, an American artist who passed away in 1988, usually incorporated symbols like crowns and flames to emphasize the struggles and injustices faced by marginalized communities. Fire in these contexts can represent anger, a burning desire for change, or the destruction of the old to make way for the new. The dynamic nature of fire complements the often transient, ephemeral quality of graffiti art, which can be quickly created and removed or painted over. This impermanence ties in with the theme of fire as a fleeting yet impactful force in the urban landscape. In more literal uses, some artists have been known to utilize fire as part of their creative process, employing techniques such as controlled burns or fireworks to create patterns and textures that are impossible to achieve with traditional tools. This physical use of fire challenges the norms of artistic creation and embodies the rebellious spirit of graffiti, pushing against legal and creative boundaries.

Fire in Street Pop Art

Street Pop Art, blending pop art sensibilities with street art's accessibility and public-facing nature, also sees the element of fire as a central theme in various capacities. Artists like Keith Haring, an American artist who died in 1990, used fire to draw attention to political and social concerns. For Haring, the fire could symbolize destruction caused by nuclear war or social unrest, invoking both fear and a call to action among viewers. Fire imagery's vivid, immediate impact suits the bold colors and simple, impactful lines typical of Street Pop Art. This style often aims to communicate quickly and effectively with a broad audience, much like an advertisement. In this way, fire serves as a strong visual focal point and enhances the message's urgency. Whether it's a commentary on political upheaval, environmental disasters, or internal turmoil, fire is a universal signifier of danger and a catalyst for change.

Contemporary Uses and Interpretations

In contemporary Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork, the fire motif continues to evolve, reflecting current global issues and personal narratives. Modern technologies and new media have also expanded how fire can be represented and conceptualized. Digital graffiti, projections, and installations now allow artists to include images of fire in their works that interact with the natural environment in dynamic ways, such as changing in response to viewer movements or altering according to real-time data (like temperature or noise levels). These modern interpretations of fire maintain the element's traditional associations with passion and transformation while pushing its symbolic potential in new directions. Artists continue to explore fire's dual capacity to destroy and renew, reflecting both personal and collective experiences of crisis and recovery. This dynamic is particularly resonant in today's world, where issues such as climate change, political unrest, and social transformation dominate public discourse. Fire in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork offers a rich terrain for artistic exploration and expression. Its symbolic versatility and visual impact make it an enduringly attractive element for artists in these vibrant and often challenging genres. As these art forms continue to evolve, the symbol of fire remains a potent tool for artists to engage, provoke, and inspire their audiences.
