Breathe Right Original Painting Oil On Linen w/ Custom Walnut Frame by David Molesky Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2014 Signed & Custom Framed Original Oil Painting Artwork Size 24x20 "This painting is from my series of paintings based on media images of the revolution in Kiev. Its the largest of the eight paintings so far and the one that I spent the most time on. I feel like the figure captures the energy that originally drew me into the subject matter. The paintings of this series are a departure from my earlier figurative painting. For the last decade or so I had tried to depict universal time and avoided man-made objects. I’ve dropped that dogma. I love that the subject is current, and also contains elements that seem from another era." - David Molesky

Only The Finest Poison Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled on Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. 2023 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 550 Artwork Size 24x24 Silkscreen Print "This “Only the Finest Poison” print is a critique of the many methods the oil industries use to maintain business as usual, including deceptive marketing, bribing politicians, discrediting science, and concealing the truth. The news clipping included in the piece is a portion of an article revealing that ExxonMobile has known, based on their internal scientific research, for over 40 years that burning fossil fuels is warming the planet. Yet, they hid the research and publicly denied the impact of fossil fuels on climate change. It is challenging to break through the formidable layers of deterrence put in place by the powerful corporations who put profits before people and the planet, but breaking through is essential to a healthy future. A portion of proceeds from this print will benefit Greenpeace USA to support their work to fight climate change. Thanks for caring. The speckletone paper used in this print is composed of recycled material." -Shepard Fairey "Only the Finest Poison" is an exceptional work of art by Shepard Fairey, a renowned figure in the pop and street art scene. Released in 2023, this silkscreen print showcases Fairey's adeptness in merging provocative political commentary with visually compelling artistry. Limited to an edition of 550, each piece is hand-pulled on Speckletone Fine Art Paper, a unique medium composed of recycled material, further emphasizing the artist's commitment to environmental responsibility. The artwork stands as a stark critique of the global oil industry and its harmful practices. Fairey powerfully employs the use of imagery and text to shed light on the industry's egregious actions—distorting facts, undermining science, bribing political figures, and prioritizing profit over the planet's wellbeing. A crucial element of the piece is the inclusion of a news clipping, a snip from an exposé revealing ExxonMobile's long-concealed knowledge of the detrimental climate effects of burning fossil fuels. Fairey's print is an example of how art can serve as a powerful medium for social and political critique, calling viewers to contemplate the issues presented and challenging them to take action. Echoing the urgent need for change, Fairey's print not only criticizes the oil industry but also extends a helping hand towards environmental causes. A percentage of the proceeds from the sale of this print is donated to Greenpeace USA, an organization known for its relentless fight against climate change. This brilliant artwork, in its thematic exploration and socio-political impact, is a testament to Fairey's role as a critical commentator in the realm of street and pop art.

Cost of Oil AP Artist Proof Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled 2-Color on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. AP Artist Proof 2008 Signed & Marked AP Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print. The "Cost of Oil" silkscreen print by Shepard Fairey is a provocative piece that cuts to the heart of street pop art and graffiti artwork's capacity to confront and question socio-political issues. Released in 2008 as an artist proof (AP), this limited edition artwork is a visual exploration of the themes of energy consumption, environmental impact, and the geopolitical ramifications implicit in the pursuit of oil. Signed and marked as an AP by Fairey, the piece measures 18x24 inches and is printed on cream speckletone fine art paper. Known for his intelligent and critical approach to cultural commentary, Fairey's "Cost of Oil" embodies the essence of his street pop art practice. The artwork is anchored by the bold, declarative question, "What is the cost of oil?" which resonates against the backdrop of a commanding visual narrative. The image features a solitary figure, clad in a shirt emblazoned with "USA," filling up a Hummer's gas tank—a potent symbol of American consumption and the military-industrial complex. The radiant sunburst behind the figure and the dripping blood-red bottom underscores the dichotomy of light and darkness in the discourse around freedom and its costs. This 2-color hand-pulled print is a quintessential example of Fairey's work, aligning itself with the 'OBEY' campaign's goal to stimulate discussion and reflect on the pervasive propaganda in public spaces. The 'OBEY' motif has always sought to challenge observers to question the mechanisms and messages in their environment, and "Cost of Oil" extends this challenge to the global issue of oil dependency and its vast implications. As a piece of street pop art, the "Cost of Oil" is a catalyst for dialogue, pushing the boundaries of what art can communicate and how it can influence public thought. It's a stark reminder of the power of visual art as a means of activism and advocacy and of Fairey's enduring role in using his art to spotlight crucial issues. The print remains a relevant and stirring piece within the oeuvre of Fairey's work and the larger conversation about energy, environmentalism, and the actual price of consumption.

Unsinkable Consumption AP Artist Proof Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. AP Artist Proof 2015 Signed & Marked AP Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print. Sinking Titanic Style Cruise Liner Ship Sinking Cause of "Oil." Shepard Fairey's "Unsinkable Consumption AP" is a thought-provoking silkscreen print that resonates with contemporary environmental and socio-political issues. This artist proof, created in 2015, is part of a limited edition, hand-pulled with five colors on Cream Speckletone fine art paper, a testament to Fairey’s commitment to high-quality craftsmanship in his work. At 18x24 inches, the artwork captures the viewer's attention with its stark imagery and powerful message. The print portrays a sinking ship reminiscent of the Titanic, a vessel historically synonymous with human arrogance and the disastrous consequences of overestimating human engineering over nature’s forces. In Fairey’s rendition, the liner is juxtaposed with an oil rig symbol within a red warning circle, stark against the cream background. The word "CONSUME" looms above, a bold indictment of society's relentless exploitation of natural resources. This image resonates deeply with themes of ecological disaster and unsustainable practices, encapsulating the idea that, like the "unsinkable" Titanic, our consumption habits may lead to our downfall. Fairey's work often encompasses a blend of street art's accessibility and pop art's use of recognizable imagery to engage with the audience on critical issues. The sinking ship is a metaphor for the potential catastrophe of unchecked consumption, while the oil rig emblem represents the specific threat of fossil fuels. Signed and marked as an artist-proof, this piece holds a special place in Fairey's oeuvre, signaling its status as a significant work directly from the artist's hands. As a prominent figure in pop, street, and graffiti art, Fairey has continually used his platform to advocate for political and environmental awareness. "Unsinkable Consumption AP" exemplifies his approach to art as a means of provocation and dialogue. This piece not only stands out for its aesthetic appeal but also for its capacity to engage the public in critical reflection on urgent global issues. Through this print, Fairey underscores the vital role of art in sparking conversation and potentially inspiring action.

Shell PP Printers Proof Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 310gsm Fine Art Paper by Cey Adams Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. PP Printers Proof Signed & Marked PP Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x18 Shell Archival Print by Cey Adams "The whole idea behind my Trusted Brands series was that I wanted to revisit many of the iconic logos of my youth to reconnect to familiar things. These pieces are mostly made of handmade fiber papers from India and Nepal. I wanted to do something rivaling my friends who used spray paint and connected with my graffiti roots, but I didn't want to do what everybody else did. I thought it would be interesting to challenge myself to use a medium I have never used before, and collage spoke to me." - Cey Adams. Cey Adams' "Shell" - A Convergence of Branding and Art Cey Adams, a foundational figure in graffiti and street pop art, presents a compelling piece in his "Shell PP Printers Proof Limited Edition." This work is part of Adams' "Trusted Brands" series, where he revisits the emblematic logos that marked his youth. The print, an 18x18 archival pigment on fine art paper, showcases his exploration into collage, setting him apart from his contemporaries who favored spray paint. This piece is a Printer's Proof, signed and marked by Adams, adding a layer of exclusivity and collectibility. Adams' choice to use handmade fiber papers from India and Nepal lends an organic texture that contrasts with the commercial sharpness of the Shell logo. His work is a nod to nostalgia and a dialogue between past and present, consumerism and craftsmanship. The "Shell" piece stands out as a testament to Adams' ability to innovate within his graffiti roots while pushing the boundaries of his artistic expression. In Adams' own words, his college journey was challenging to escape the graffiti norm. His "Trusted Brands" series, including the "Shell" print, reflects this personal and artistic quest to connect with familiar symbols uniquely, embodying the essence of modern pop art within the urban landscape.

Sanctuary Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 310gsm Museum Natural Fine Art Paper by J.A.W. Cooper Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "Sanctuary was created in 2013 as part of my solo show "Laid Bare" which explored vulnerability as both a source of strength and discomfort. The setting for the piece is of personal significance, a verdant cave at the top of a waterfall in Big Sur. This cave is full of stacked rocks left by previous visitors though in all of my visits I never encountered anyone inside, and so it has the air of a place of significance for many people traveling along parallel lines but not intersecting. The purpose of a "sanctuary" is to provide asylum in a time of stress or danger and this cave gave me peace at a time when I was letting go of one facet of my life and fostering the growth of a new one; the severed stag head and the fawn." - J.A.W.

Framed Dimensions 24.5 X 18.5 Inches Operation Oil Freedom Black PP HPM Wood Silkscreen Print is a piece of artwork created by Shepard Fairey, also known as OBEY, an American contemporary street artist, graphic designer, and activist.

His work often combines elements of street art, propaganda, and activism, drawing attention to social and political issues. This particular piece, "Operation Oil Freedom Black PP HPM Wood Silkscreen Print," likely addresses the politics surrounding oil, energy consumption, and environmental concerns. As with many of Fairey's works, this piece employs a mix of bold fuel visuals and thought-provoking eagle burd imagery to engage the viewer and spark conversation about the subject matter. The use of silkscreen printing and wood as a medium further emphasizes the unique style and texture of the piece. Without seeing the artwork, it's difficult to provide a more detailed analysis of its specific visual elements or its exact meaning. However, it is likely that the piece carries a strong political and social message in line with Fairey's usual style.

Idiocracy Limited Edition 4-Color Hand-Pulled Silkscreen Print on Fine Art Paper by Shepard Fairey, Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2016 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 550 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print "I’ve always felt that art, entertainment, and humor can be the best delivery vehicles for social commentary, so I love the way humor is used in “Idiocracy” to make the social critique more digestible. The movie is a harsh but necessary indictment of the anti-intellectual culture and politics that seem to become the norm more and more everyday. The film is great in a cautionary way and has an enjoyable irony being a somewhat low-brow piece of entertainment about the perils of succumbing to a cultural rejection of anything intellectual or high-brow. In other words, the genius of the film is that it may actually get through to the audience it should reach, rather than just preaching to the intellectual elite" -Shepard Fairey- OBEY Shepard Fairey's "Idiocracy" limited edition print encapsulates the convergence of pop culture and social critique through the lens of contemporary art. Renowned for his subversive street art and graphic designs, Fairey extends his canvas to fine art paper in this 2016 artwork, limited to 550 signed and numbered pieces. The 18x24 silkscreen print features a four-color palette and is a tangible expression of Fairey’s dedication to using art as a medium for commentary on societal issues. Drawing inspiration from Mike Judge's satirical film "Idiocracy," Fairey's print is not only a visual tribute but also a critique of the film’s themes—depicting the troubling rise of anti-intellectualism and the cultural dismissal of enlightenment and sophistication. Fairey himself praises the film's use of humor to present its social criticism in a more palatable form, creating a space for reflection rather than alienation. His artwork captures the film’s ironic humor, using a brain under the guise of a vending machine product—emblematic of commodification and the oversimplification of complex ideas. This print, like many of Fairey’s works, is imbued with a sense of urgency and a call to awareness. It encapsulates the artist's view that the realms of art, humor, and entertainment can effectively intersect to deliver powerful messages about the current state of society. Fairey’s "Idiocracy" is not merely a piece to be admired for its aesthetic appeal, but a statement piece that encapsulates the pressing cultural narrative around the value of intelligence and the dangers of its rejection in public discourse. The visual elements of the print—the juxtaposition of a brain with a hand grenade, the stark and commanding typography, and the bold colors—are characteristic of Fairey's style. They are employed here not only to draw the eye but also to provoke thought, embodying the essence of graffiti and street art as tools for social engagement. In a culture increasingly leaning towards anti-intellectual sentiment, Fairey’s "Idiocracy" stands as a critical beacon in modern pop art, reminding viewers of the power of art as a reflective and transformative force.

Moon Over Biloxi- White 1-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Fine Art Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art Famous Pop Artwork Artist. White Variant Signed & Numbered Moon Over Biloxi Screen Print 18 x 24 inches Edition of 200 July 27, 2010. "The title of this print “Moon Over Biloxi” is a tribute to the Dead Kennedy’s song “Moon Over Marin”. In 1984 I picked up maybe my 4th punk record which was the 2nd Dead Kennedy’s album “Plastic Surgery Disasters”. The album is a great listen all the way through and includes some blistering tunes like “Riot” and “Bleed For Me” laced with social commentary. The surprise song though is “Moon Over Marin”… detractors have called it the Dead Kennedy’s “U2” song, but I disagree. “Moon Over Marin” is more melodic than most DK, but juxtaposed with the darkness of the lyrics, the song evokes a powerful sense of existential melancholy. I think the concept that struck me, and stuck with me, is that our disrespect of each other and the planet may doom us, but things will continue without us. I think it is healthy to recognize impermanence, but also to appreciate the value of the ephemeral. Moonlight, real or electric, will probably be around, but what it will be casting light on is the real question. There will always be a moon over Biloxi." -Shepard

Open Minds 4-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Cream Speckletone Art Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. Signed & Numbered Screen Print OPEN MINDS 36 inches by 24 inches Edition of 675 February 3, 2022 Handling Creases to Bottom Left & Right Margins. This “Open Minds” print references the language used by the powerful fuel industry lobby to soften political and public resistance to fracking. Fracking is a form of gas extraction which beyond the carbon impact of the gas itself, contaminates groundwater, pollutes the air, and creates strains on water resources because of the high volume of water required for the fracking process. Open-mindedness about any of those detrimental impacts of fracking and other fossil fuel extraction is absurd if one cares about the environment, air and water quality, and global warming. Powerful corporations and their lobbyists spend exorbitant sums to distract from and discredit the science-based conversation about the environment. I’m all for open minds and open eyes when it comes to putting science and the welfare of the planet before corporate profits. A portion of the proceeds from this print will benefit Greenpeace to support its work to enhance environmental protections and combat climate change. – Shepard

Lady With Sphinx Original Painting Oil On Linen Mounted To Wood With Frame by Aaron Nagel Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2015 Signed Original Oil Painting Framed by Aaron Negal Measuring 26x30 "'Lady With a Sphinx" was humbly modeled after the Leonardo DaVinci painting, "Lady With An Ermine." It is my second attempt at a painting modeled after a classic, the first being my version (of Bouguereau’s version) of the Piéta. I have always liked "Lady With An Ermine;" the lighting on the figure, the stark background, the lettering in the upper left-hand corner, and of course, the Ermine (because what the fuck is an ermine?!)Trying to get the reference photo looking similar was a challenge, but an enjoyable one, as I never have a concrete idea of how I want a reference to look, so there tends to be a lot of trial and error. This time, I messed with it until the pose and lighting were right, then just took a few hundred pictures there, with very subtle pose and expression changes. This piece was painted for the “Three Figures” exhibition at Maxwell Alexander Gallery in June of 2014. It was a 3-man show, with Jeremy Mann, Sean Cheetham, and myself. They are two of my favorite artists, so it was a huge honor to show with them." - Aaron Nagel

$100 Dollar Bill- Backside Limited Edition Hand-Embellished Oil Paint HPM Silkscreen Print on Canvas by Steve Kaufman SAK Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 1995 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 100 Artwork Size 34x15 Unstretched canvas, the image is in perfect condition. Back of the United States $100 dollar bill money from the 1990s. $100 Dollar Bill- Backside Limited Edition Hand-Embellished Oil Paint HPM Silkscreen Print on Canvas by Steve Kaufman The $100 Dollar Bill- Backside silkscreen print on canvas by Steve Kaufman is a striking example of street pop art and graffiti artwork that captures the essence of American consumer culture and wealth symbolism. Created in 1995, this signed and numbered hand-embellished oil paint HPM (Hand-Painted Multiple) is part of a limited edition of 100. Measuring 34x15 inches on unstretched canvas, this piece presents a visually compelling reinterpretation of the back of a 1990s United States $100 bill. Kaufman’s distinctive approach to printmaking, combined with his background in graffiti and modern pop art, makes this artwork a significant statement within the genre. Steve Kaufman’s Influence on Street Pop Art Steve Kaufman, often referred to by his initials SAK, was a pivotal figure in contemporary street pop art. As a former assistant to Andy Warhol, Kaufman developed his own signature style that blended commercial iconography with hand-painted elements. His work frequently centered on themes of capitalism, mass production, and American identity, utilizing recognizable imagery such as currency, famous celebrities, and consumer products. This piece, depicting the back of a $100 bill, is a prime example of his ability to elevate everyday symbols into fine art. By incorporating graffiti-inspired aesthetics with screen printing techniques, Kaufman transformed traditional art forms into something dynamic and relevant to the modern era. His ability to merge street culture with fine art galleries made him a bridge between two artistic worlds. This limited edition print, with its rich colors and textured embellishments, continues his legacy of challenging conventional notions of value, art, and commerce. The Symbolism of Money in Modern Pop Art The use of currency as a subject in modern pop art has deep historical roots, often serving as a critique of wealth, power, and societal values. Kaufman’s portrayal of the $100 bill’s backside takes a familiar object and recontextualizes it through color, scale, and artistic intervention. The presence of Independence Hall in the composition is particularly significant, symbolizing the intersection of American history and contemporary consumer culture. This piece is more than just a reproduction of money—it becomes a meditation on the influence of wealth and financial systems in art and daily life. Kaufman’s choice to hand-embellish each print adds a layer of uniqueness, reinforcing the idea that even in a world driven by mass production, individuality and artistic expression remain essential. The bold use of color and contrast amplifies the visual impact, making the print stand out as both a statement piece and a collector’s item. A Collector’s Piece with Lasting Impact This $100 Dollar Bill- Backside print holds a special place in the world of limited edition street pop art and graffiti artwork. As an unstretched canvas, it offers flexibility for framing and display, allowing collectors to showcase it in a way that best fits their aesthetic. Kaufman’s legacy as a groundbreaking artist continues to thrive, and his works are highly sought after for their cultural relevance and visual appeal. For art enthusiasts and collectors who appreciate the fusion of graffiti, pop culture, and fine art, this piece serves as a powerful representation of Kaufman’s vision. It encapsulates the bold, unapologetic nature of street pop art while remaining deeply tied to the broader narrative of American economic and artistic history.

Shell Gas Station Original Dunny Town Art Toy by Task One Kidrobot Vinyl & Plaster Art Toy Collectible Pop Artwork. 2013 Original Dunny Town Painted Plaster Kidrobot Custom Dunny Artwork Size Approximate 3x4 Town Shell Gas Station Original Dunny Art Toy by Task One Task One's Commentary on Consumerism: Shell Gas Station Original Dunny Town Art Toy Task One's "Shell Gas Station Original Dunny Town Art Toy" is a remarkable piece within the Kidrobot Dunny Town series, revealing the artist's intricate craftsmanship and keen social commentary. Created in 2013, this particular art toy fuses vinyl with painted plaster to meticulously recreate a Shell gas station with the brand's iconic logo and colors. Measuring approximately 3x4 inches, the work encapsulates the ubiquitous nature of global consumer brands and their imprint on the urban landscape, interpreted through the unique aesthetic of street pop art and graffiti artwork. The miniature gas station symbolizes the global economy, energy consumption, and the environmental impact of fossil fuels. Task One's choice to embed such a potent symbol into the playful form of a Dunny is a powerful statement on how deeply corporate symbols are ingrained in our daily lives. It provokes thought on our reliance on such establishments, not just for fuel but as fixtures of the modern world that represent a complex network of commerce and industry. The Intersection of Urban Iconography and Artistic Expression With the "Shell Gas Station Original Dunny Town Art Toy," Task One continues his exploration of urban iconography, transforming a familiar city element into a piece of collectible art. The juxtaposition of Dunny's cartoonish form with the realistic details of the gas station creates a striking contrast characteristic of pop art's approach to blending high and low cultural imagery. This piece contributes to the dialogue of street pop art and graffiti artwork, where the line between commercial branding and artistic expression becomes blurred. The work is a microcosm of the streets, a tangible manifestation of the sights and symbols that define the contemporary urban experience. Collectors and enthusiasts of Task One's work are not only drawn to the visual appeal of his creations but also to the layered meanings and cultural critiques embedded within them. The "Shell Gas Station Original Dunny Town Art Toy" is a prime example of how art toys can transcend their initial perception as mere objects of play and become conduits to reflect broader societal themes. In the narrative of street pop art, Task One's Shell Gas Station Dunny stands as a testament to the power of art to encapsulate and critique the world around us. It is a collectible that captures the zeitgeist of the early 21st century, a time when questions about sustainability, consumer culture, and environmental responsibility are at the forefront of public discourse. Through this work, Task One affirms the relevance and potential of street pop art and graffiti artwork to challenge, provoke, and engage audiences in a conversation about the world they inhabit.

Swan Song Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled 4-Color on Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. 2023 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 550 Size 36x24 Silkscreen Print The Swan Song print is a depiction of the precarious state of nature's delicate balance, with numerous species declining, eco-systems teetering on the brink of collapse, and climate scientists warning that time is running out to avert environmental consequences that could render zones inhabitable for millions. While certain groups may suffer more than others, this issue is universal as we all have an impact on both the problems and solutions. Unfortunately, the conscientious habits of individuals alone are insufficient to solve the problem. Unless corporations are pressured and regulated, they will continue to prioritize profits over the planet's health. The piece contains a news clipping revealing that Exxon-Mobile has known for over 40 years, based on their own internal scientific research, that burning fossil fuels is causing global warming, yet they concealed this information and publicly denied the impact of fossil fuels on climate change. A portion of the print's proceeds will be donated to Greenpeace USA to support their efforts to combat climate change. The Speckletone paper used in the print is made from recycled materials. Thank you for your concern.

Downward Trajectory Hand-Pulled 4-Color Silkscreen Print on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper by Artist Shepard Fairey Limited Edition Pop Art Artwork. 2019 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 500 Artwork Size 24x24 “Downward Trajectory is one of the many new works featured in my 30th-anniversary show in Los Angeles, “Facing the Giant: Three Decades of Dissent and New Works,” -Shepard Fairey Shepard Fairey's work is highly political and social, not only because he is incorporating politicians and slogans in it but more importantly because the artist is primarily interested in approaching as many people as possible, exhibiting his work in the covers of the books, which we read, in the music albums, to which we listen, and on the walls of the streets, where we walk. “If I put art in a daring spot, it’s more moving to the viewer and demonstrates my conviction.”, he says. After all, Fairey, in many cases, directly expresses his views on politics and society, whenever he is given the chance. For example, in the aftermath of the “Hope” poster, he commented the following: “Obama has had a really tough time, but there have been a lot of things that he's compromised on that I never would have expected. I mean, drones and domestic spying are the last things I would have thought [he'd support]”. The political aspect of his work can, also, be seen under the spectrum of Fairey’s activism and humanitarian activity. Many of his works have been created as part of activism campaigns or were sold to support causes relevant to the Arts, animal rights, poverty, medical research, the environment, etc. The artist, however, doesn’t identify himself as an activist: “People ask me if I’m an activist, and my answer is no. I’m an artist with a point of view, but I want to do my part to supplement activist causes I believe in. I feel fortunate to connect with people who find my imagery useful and help spread it.”

Castle Original One of a Kind Mixed Media & Oil Painting Artwork on Canvas by Modern Pop Dystopian Artist Adam Caldwell. 2022 Signed 11x14 Oil Mixed Media on Canvas Original Painting Ready to Hang Artwork. Adam Caldwell's Castle A Convergence of Chaos and Order in Art "Castle," an original mixed media and oil painting on canvas by Adam Caldwell, is a profound one-of-a-kind artwork that captures the intricate balance between chaos and order—a recurring theme in Caldwell's work as a modern pop dystopian artist. The 2022 signed piece, measuring 11x14 inches, expresses Caldwell's mastery in blending classical art techniques with modern street pop sensibilities, ready to be displayed and provoke thought in any setting. This piece is a visual narrative that conveys the tension between past and present, reality and imagination. At its center is a meticulously detailed castle, an emblem of medieval grandeur and stability, surrounded by abstract, almost violent brushstrokes that suggest a storm of contemporary chaos. Caldwell's "Castle" invites viewers to reflect on the dichotomy of the enduring structures we build—physical and societal—and the often tumultuous energy surrounding them. The castle, a symbol of fortitude and legacy, is juxtaposed against a backdrop of modernity's unrelenting and vibrant force, encapsulated in the riot of colors and textures that make up the canvas's background. Caldwell's artwork is further characterized by detailed sketches that evoke the sense of an underlying narrative that hints at the stories and histories embedded within the walls of such timeless structures. His mixed media approach, involving oil paint that gives depth and richness to the image, alongside other materials that contribute to the piece's texture and complexity, reflects the layered nature of history itself. "Castle" is a testament to Caldwell's ability to navigate the crosscurrents of street pop art and traditional oil painting. It is a visual exploration of the themes that define Caldwell's body of work: the intersection of historical and contemporary, the collision of dystopian and utopian elements, and the dialogue between the chaotic and the serene. Through "Castle," Caldwell continues to challenge and expand the boundaries of what pop art can be, solidifying his role as a visionary artist whose works resonate with the complexities of the modern age.

$500 Dollar Bill- Green Limited Edition Hand-Embellished Oil Paint HPM Silkscreen Print on Canvas by Steve Kaufman SAK Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 1995 Signed Custom Framed Front of the United States $500 dollar bill money from 1934 featuring US President William McKinley. $500 Dollar Bill Green Limited Edition Hand-Embellished Oil Paint HPM Silkscreen Print on Canvas by Steve Kaufman The $500 dollar bill Green Limited Edition Hand-Embellished Oil Paint HPM Silkscreen Print on Canvas is a striking piece of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork by Steve Kaufman, a legendary modern pop artist. The artwork is a signed and custom-framed rendition of the front of the United States $500 bill from 1934, featuring President William McKinley. This piece, created in 1995, stands as a powerful example of Kaufman’s signature approach to transforming historical and cultural symbols into vibrant modern masterpieces. Steve Kaufman and His Impact on Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork Steve Alan Kaufman, born in 1960 in the United States, was a student and assistant to Andy Warhol before developing his own unique artistic voice. He expanded on Warhol’s pop art techniques by incorporating hand embellishments, graffiti elements, and unconventional color schemes, making his works one-of-a-kind collectibles. Kaufman’s contributions to Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork involved a deep engagement with American cultural imagery, including currency, historical figures, and iconic consumer symbols. His work frequently explored themes of capitalism, nostalgia, and the power of recognizable images to evoke emotion and commentary. This $500 dollar bill print is an excellent representation of Kaufman’s ability to fuse financial iconography with street art aesthetics. Through the use of hand-applied oil paint embellishments and silkscreen techniques, the piece achieves a tactile richness that contrasts with the traditional design of American currency. By reimagining the bill in bold colors, Kaufman breathes new life into an object typically associated with economic power and exclusivity. Symbolism of the $500 Bill in Pop Art and Street Graffiti Culture The $500 bill, particularly the 1934 series featuring President William McKinley, is a rare and discontinued form of U.S. currency. While once in circulation, these high-denomination bills were removed from general use and now exist mainly as collectors’ items. In the context of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork, the depiction of large-denomination currency serves as a commentary on wealth, value, and the transient nature of money. Kaufman’s reinterpretation of the bill in vivid green and yellow hues transforms it from a monetary instrument into a striking visual statement. The contrast between the structured, official design of the original banknote and the expressive, graffiti-inspired application of color creates an engaging tension. This reimagining forces the viewer to reconsider the meaning of money beyond its traditional role in transactions, turning it into an artistic expression of power, history, and cultural significance. Kaufman’s use of layering, texture, and freehand detailing adds an urban, almost rebellious energy to the piece, making it stand out in any collection of modern pop art. Legacy of Kaufman’s $500 Dollar Bill Artwork Steve Kaufman’s limited edition $500 dollar bill Green HPM silkscreen print exemplifies his approach to combining financial symbolism with artistic innovation. The custom-framed piece is more than a decorative statement; it encapsulates the essence of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork by challenging traditional notions of wealth and status. The bold color palette, hand-embellished details, and large-scale reinterpretation of a historical banknote ensure that this piece remains both visually captivating and intellectually thought-provoking. Through works like this, Kaufman cemented his legacy as a pivotal figure in modern pop art, influencing artists who continue to blend fine art techniques with urban street culture. His reinterpretation of the $500 bill serves as a lasting testament to his ability to elevate ordinary objects into extraordinary pieces of art that capture the energy and complexity of contemporary society.

Danger No Smoking AP Artist Proof Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. AP Artist Proof 2016 Signed & Marked AP Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print—vintage Style Lead Fual Gas Pump with Danger No Smoking Sign. "This Danger No Smoking print is inspired by a screen print I made in 1990, which was the very first image I made addressing the environmental and health hazards of gasoline. I took this photograph in Providence, RI at the edge of a desolate graveyard, which probably intensified my interpretation of the peeling paint on the gas pump as a skull. I decided the symbolism provided by natural erosion was powerful enough to make the photo worthy of turning into a print. I always liked this image, and I rediscovered it while looking for images to include in a book surveying my entire history of environmentally themed art." -Shepard Fairey- OBEY Shepard Fairey's "Danger No Smoking AP" is an arresting silkscreen print that fuses the gritty aesthetic of street art with the polished finesse of fine art printmaking. Hand-pulled and consisting of five colors on Cream Speckletone fine art paper, this artwork is part of a limited edition series that showcases Fairey's unique ability to embed powerful social commentary within his art. As an artist proof from 2016, this piece is both signed and marked AP, denoting its status as a work that precedes the official production run and is often kept by the artist for personal archives or sale. This print presents a vintage-style lead fuel gas pump decorated with a "Danger No Smoking" sign—a visual that evokes the retro Americana while simultaneously commenting on contemporary environmental and health concerns. By featuring the warning signs that often accompany hazardous substances, Fairey points to the broader issues of industrial risks and public safety. This theme resonates with the essence of pop art, where mundane commercial imagery is repurposed to make a statement, and it aligns with the spirit of street and graffiti art's focus on message-driven visuals. The artwork's size, 18x24 inches, is significant as it allows the viewer to fully engage with the detailed work, including the intricate patterns that add a layer of complexity to the straightforward cautionary symbols. Fairey's work is recognized for its commanding presence, often utilizing bold lines and stark contrasts to draw attention to the subjects he depicts. In this print, the stark warning signage contrasts with the ornamental background, creating a juxtaposition that is visually stimulating and thought-provoking. Fairey’s “Danger No Smoking AP” print is a testament to his commitment to social engagement through art. It holds a mirror to society's paradoxes, reflecting the often overlooked dangers lurking behind the glossy veneer of consumerist culture. This print, rich in symbolism and executed with the artist's signature style, is a powerful addition to the discourse on pop culture, environmentalism, and the transformative power of street art.
