Ben Frost is utilizing imagery familiar to western culture in order to make a statement about the culture itself on the basis of consumerism, modern icons, big corporations, etc. Animation characters, pop icons, brand logos, and many more are transformed into vibrant artworks and find their place in galleries. With this in mind, and in the case of Ben Frost, it is futile to try to identify a clear borderline between low and high art. In reality, the artist wants the audience to think on the terms of high or low value and, by extension, what these actually mean. Over the years street artists have managed to establish themselves as respected creators and some of them have even gained international fame, transforming graffiti from a fringe art, aiming sometimes to mark street gangs’ territory, into big business.

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.
