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.

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.

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

Factory Stacks- Endless Power 6-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Fine Speckletone Art Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. 2022 Signed by Shepard Fairey Numbered 18x24 inches. Screenprint on thick cream Speckletone paper. Numbered edition of 350. "These “Factory Stacks” images combine the austere, angular power of factory architecture with graphic elements commenting on what we promote and embrace as a society even when those things are destructive. The fossil fuel industries have tremendous power economically, but we now know that not only are fossil fuel sources finite but that using them is terrible for climate change and, therefore, the eco-systems that sustain life on our planet. Unfortunately, due to the political power of these industries and public apathy about climate change, the government subsidizes the fossil fuel industries for billions even as they damage the environment. The government works for the citizens, so the choice is ours. Do we support endless power for wealthy fossil fuel corporations? Or policies that put the earth first with the planet before profits? Please read Naomi Klein’s THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING to better understand the conflict between economic interests and climate change. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this print will go to Greenpeace to fight climate change. Thanks for caring.” – Shepard Factory Stacks – Endless Power Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey Factory Stacks – Endless Power is a bold 6-color silkscreen print created in 2022 by Shepard Fairey, one of the most influential figures in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. Measuring 18x24 inches, this signed and numbered limited edition of 350 is printed on thick cream Speckletone paper and embodies Fairey’s hallmark aesthetic: a fusion of propaganda-style composition, socio-political messaging, and graphic design precision. It continues his Factory Stacks series, a visual campaign aimed at confronting environmental and systemic imbalances, particularly those surrounding the fossil fuel industry. Visual Language of Industrial Dominance This piece presents twin smokestacks emerging from a factory, exhaling thick plumes of smoke that bend into geometric arcs against a fractured backdrop. The composition is both imposing and elegant, rendered in Fairey’s signature palette of red, blue, cream, and black with accents of gold and grey. A section in the upper corner features graphic symbols such as currency and uniformed authority figures with the text “Endless Power,” visually connecting fossil fuel dependency to state and corporate control. Below, flames lick at the base of the structure, symbolizing destruction masked as progress. The stylized imagery and bold silhouettes evoke retro political posters, transforming the factory into an icon of unchecked industrial ambition. The title “Endless Power” is a biting irony. It speaks to the illusion of limitless energy consumption enabled by fossil fuels while referencing the political power structure that sustains this destructive system. Fairey uses the visual metaphor of pollution and fire not just as environmental warning signs, but as emblems of capitalism's refusal to pivot toward sustainability. Fine Art Printmaking as Street-Level Protest This edition is hand-pulled and silkscreened, showcasing Fairey’s technical prowess in layering crisp lines and vibrant color fields. The physicality of screenprinting—each layer applied with intention—parallels the artist’s belief in direct action. The Speckletone stock used adds texture and weight, reinforcing the piece’s physical presence and link to protest posters of the past. As a printmaker rooted in the street art tradition, Fairey embraces reproducibility without sacrificing uniqueness. His screenprints are both fine art artifacts and tools of mass communication. Factory Stacks – Endless Power does not rely on abstraction. It forces clarity, making its environmental critique visually immediate and emotionally provocative. Political Commentary Through Graffiti-Inspired Aesthetics Fairey’s work consistently straddles the space between fine art and graffiti, and this piece is no exception. By including symbols of nationalism, money, and smoke stacks, he aligns corporate power and environmental degradation in a single visual language. As part of the OBEY Giant campaign's broader ethos, the artwork invites viewers to question the legitimacy of authority, capitalism, and consumption. In the lower left of the piece, Fairey embeds the edition number and his signature, reinforcing its status as a collectible. Yet unlike conventional gallery art, this piece was made to communicate with the public. A portion of the proceeds from this release was donated to Greenpeace, underscoring the artist’s commitment to activism through art. Factory Stacks – Endless Power is not a lament—it is a visual demand. It reminds viewers that power, both political and industrial, is not endless unless people allow it to be. Through the bold format of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, Shepard Fairey transforms a grim industrial skyline into a battleground of ideas, urging action before the smoke becomes irreversible.

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 Downward Trajectory Silkscreen Print Downward Trajectory by Shepard Fairey is a 2019 hand-pulled four-color silkscreen print that distills industrial architecture, environmental symbolism, and graphic precision into a powerful example of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. The composition features a modernist factory complex with three smokestacks releasing pale emissions into a sharply segmented sky of red, black, teal, and cream. In the foreground, two gas pumps sit beneath a minimal canopy, directly referencing fossil fuel infrastructure. The geometry is clean and deliberate, recalling mid-century industrial poster design while maintaining the confrontational clarity that defines Fairey’s visual identity. Printed on cream speckletone fine art paper, the subtle texture of the surface enhances the bold color blocking and reinforces the handcrafted quality of the silkscreen process. Environmental Commentary and Graphic Structure The title Downward Trajectory communicates a clear environmental warning, suggesting decline tied to industrial expansion and energy dependence. The angular divisions in the sky create tension and imbalance, visually reinforcing instability and ecological disruption. The dominant red fields introduce urgency, while the cooler industrial tones emphasize machinery, production, and systemic consumption. Fairey’s use of minimal forms and controlled palette ensures immediate legibility, a hallmark of effective Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. Rather than relying on dense imagery, he reduces the scene to essential elements, allowing viewers to interpret the relationship between architecture, pollution, and resource extraction without distraction. The oil drop emblem placed in the upper corner functions as a subtle but direct reference to petroleum industry influence. Shepard Fairey Background and Edition Details Shepard Fairey’s real name is Frank Shepard Fairey. He was born in 1970 in the United States and remains active. Emerging from early street sticker campaigns and evolving into a globally recognized figure in contemporary urban art, he has consistently addressed themes of authority, corporate power, and environmental responsibility.

As a work of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, Downward Trajectory merges disciplined design with pointed ecological critique, making it a compelling addition for collectors who prioritize concept-driven contemporary printmaking.

Moon Over Biloxi 1-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Fine Art Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art Famous Pop Artwork Artist. Signed & Numbered Moon Over Biloxi Screen Print 18 x 24 inches Edition of 400 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

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.

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. Cooper
