Priority Mail 228-2016 Slap-Up Label Sticker Original Tag Art by Saber Original Permanent Drawing Art on USPS Mailing Label by Graffiti Artist Modern Street Artwork. 2020 Signed by Tag Original Slap Up Graffiti Art Tag 4.25x5.5 Color Marker on USPS United States Postal Service Priority Mail Label 228-2016.  Priority Mail 228 Labels: Slap-Up Canvas for the Streets Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork have become synonymous with urban landscapes' raw, vibrant, and often controversial energy. Amongst the most captivating forms of this art is the slap-up label sticker, a brief piece that combines the guerrilla tactics of street art with the aesthetic approach of pop art. These stickers, often found adorning city walls, lampposts, and mailboxes, carry the pulse of the streets and the artist's signature. The United States Postal Service's Priority Mail 228 label is a particularly iconic medium within this genre. Initially intended for postal use, artists have repurposed these labels as canvases for their work. With its distinctive red, white, and blue design, the label offers an instantly recognizable backdrop deeply rooted in American iconography. This juxtaposition of official symbolism with the rebellious nature of graffiti creates a powerful, provocative, and patriotic visual statement. Graffiti artists like Saber have transformed these labels into vehicles of personal expression and social commentary. Saber, an American artist named Ryan Weston Shook, is known for his work within the graffiti community and beyond. His involvement with the art form dates back to the 1990s, and he has since become a notable figure in the street art world.  Tag Art: Marking Presence and Identity Tagging, which involves writing one's alias or signature in a stylized form, is central to graffiti culture. It's a means of claiming territory, asserting identity, and engaging with the public in a dialogue often unmediated by gallery spaces' conventions. The Saber piece utilizes a blue permanent marker to create a tangle of lines and shapes that coalesce into his distinctive tag. Measuring 4.25x5.5 inches, this slap-up label sticker is a quintessential example of tag art, embodying the spontaneity and personal touch that are hallmarks of the genre. Created in 2020 and signed by the artist, this piece carries the weight of authenticity and the immediacy of street art. Despite its small scale, the tag commands attention, with the intensity of the blue marker standing bold against the label's pre-printed elements. The label's date, March 2016, provides a temporal context, anchoring the artwork in a specific moment of Saber's artistic journey. The cultural significance of slap-up label art lies in its accessibility and transience. These stickers can be produced en masse and placed in various locations, allowing for a wide distribution of the artist's work. However, their lifespan is unpredictable, as they can easily be removed or destroyed, mirroring the fleeting nature of fame and public attention in the digital age. Saber's use of the Priority Mail 228 label is a nod to a tradition in street art that values the repurposing of everyday items into something extraordinary. The label's transformation from a mundane postal accessory into a piece of art disrupts the ordinary and challenges the viewer to see the extraordinary in the everyday. This quality places slap-up label art firmly within the canon of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork, genres that continually redefine themselves through unconventional materials and methods. The Priority Mail 228 Slap-Up Label Sticker by Saber is more than just a piece of art; it is a statement, a piece of cultural fabric, and a reflection of the artist's presence in the urban landscape. As with much of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork, it encapsulates a moment in time, a burst of creative energy, and a dialogue with the public that is as vibrant and dynamic as the streets from which it was born.

This transformation is characteristic of street pop art, where everyday elements are recontextualized to challenge perceptions and engage viewers in a dialogue. The Significance of Giclée in Preserving Street Art Aesthetics Giclée prints like "Risky E" have played a significant role in preserving the aesthetics of street art for future generations. By capturing the vibrancy and detail of the original artwork on fine art paper, the giclée process ensures that the transient nature of street art can be enjoyed long after the original piece might have faded or been painted over. With its limited edition status, this print elevates the ephemeral nature of graffiti into a collectible form, allowing fans and new audiences alike to own a piece of street art history. The slight aging of the paper's margins does not detract from the artwork's value; instead, it adds a layer of authenticity reminiscent of the aging walls that host graffiti art in the urban landscape. The promise that the image can be easily matted and preserved speaks to the adaptability of street art and its ability to find new life in different contexts and formats. Risk Rock's "Risky E Graffiti Alphabet Letter" giclée is a testament to the enduring appeal and significance of street pop art and graffiti artwork. As a limited edition print, it represents the intersection of street culture and fine art, embodying the spirit of an art movement that continues to influence and redefine the boundaries of artistic expression. The piece is a tribute to the artists who have brought the language of the streets into the galleries and the collectors who have helped pave the way for graffiti to be recognized as a legitimate and impactful art form.

Bojorquez's work transcends the aesthetic, engaging with themes of cultural identity and social commentary and celebrating the often-underrepresented communities that form the backbone of urban street culture.

Sidewalk Closed Original Mixed Media Graffiti Artist Modern Pop Art on Real Metal Street Sign by Sonic Bad. 2012 Signed Original Spray Paint & Metal Street Sign Artwork Size 24x18 Depicting 2 1970s-80s Stylized Beat Boys, NYC Graffiti Tags & Bubble Letters on Street Closed Sign Sonic Bad's Ode to the Streets: The 'Sidewalk Closed' Series The 'Sidewalk Closed' artwork by Sonic Bad, an original piece created in 2012, infuses the rebellious spirit of 1970s and 80s street culture into a medium that is emblematic of urban restriction: a real metal street sign. This mixed media work, signed by the artist, is a striking example of how street pop art and graffiti can repurpose public regulatory objects into canvases that challenge and reinterpret their original intent. Reclaiming Urban Symbols in Street Art Sonic Bad's choice of canvas—a metal street sign—turns an everyday symbol of control into a representation of creative liberation. The artwork, sized at 24x18 inches, is vibrant with color and life, presenting a stark contrast to the sign's mundane purpose of demarcating boundaries. By painting over it, Sonic Bad claims the object for art, much like graffiti artists claim walls for their tags and murals. The piece itself is a dynamic collage of NYC graffiti tags and bubble letters, styles deeply rooted in the history of street art. It showcases two stylized beat boys, figures that resonate with the hip-hop culture that was burgeoning on the streets of New York City during the 70s and 80s. These characters are not only representations of a specific era but also symbols of the energy and rhythm of street life. The Visual Language of Graffiti and Its Evolution Sonic Bad's work serves as a visual lexicon of graffiti's evolution, encapsulating the transition from tagging—often a raw, text-based expression of identity—to more complex and stylized works. The 'Sidewalk Closed' series is particularly evocative of this shift, highlighting the movement from simple letterforms to elaborate and colorful representations that are as much about the artistry of the line as they are about the message. The aerosol paint, a medium synonymous with graffiti, brings authenticity to the piece, its drips and opacity echoing the textures of street art seen in the wild. The metal sign, once reflective and directive, becomes muted and textured under layers of paint, a metaphor for the way street art can change the nature and conversation around public spaces and objects. Sonic Bad and the Living History of Street Art Sonic Bad's 'Sidewalk Closed' is more than a singular work; it is part of the living history of street pop art and graffiti artwork. It reflects a time when street culture began to permeate every aspect of urban life, from the music that played out of boomboxes to the art that adorned the walls and sidewalks of the city. This piece is a celebration of that era, a nod to the roots of street art, and a statement on its enduring influence. The artist, by merging nostalgia with contemporary expression, invites onlookers to explore the depth and breadth of street art. Through this work, Sonic Bad not only pays homage to the pioneers of the genre but also places himself within the continuum of artists who have utilized the street as their gallery. His legacy lies in his ability to transform the ordinary into the extraordinary, ensuring that the spirit of the streets remains vibrant and visible.

No Lifeguard On Duty Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 310gsm Fine Art Paper by Jessica Hess Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "Friends have been telling me for years that I needed to explore Detroit. I finally had the opportunity to do so last summer (2014). It was an urbex wonderland! I only had two short days to gather photo references of the city for my paintings and was overwhelmed by the volume of material. My paintings seek to capture the wonder and excitement in exploring what was once familiar, now otherworldly, the beauty in decay. My painting " No Lifeguard in Duty" was from the Brewster Wheeler Recreation Center. I am told that it has now been slated for redevelopment. I guess the graffiti party is over. Sadly, the majority of my subjects disappear soon after I paint them. It makes me feel like some kind of Grim Reaper of architecture. But for years now I have had remarkable luck in capturing them before they go." - Jessica Hess

Heath Ledger Joker Construction Zone Original Street Sign Painting by RD-357 Real Deal One of a Kind Artwork on Real Metal NYC New York Construction Zone No Trespassing Street Sign by Graffiti Art Pop Artist. 2012 Signed Mixed Media Acrylic & Spray Paint on Reclaimed NYC New York Construction Zone No Trespassing Sign Painting Original Artwork Size 24x24 Batman Villian Played by Heath Ledger in the Movie as Joker Looking at the Viewer. RD Tag in Rust Red. RD-357's Heath Ledger Joker: A Fusion of Street Pop Art and Iconography The Heath Ledger Joker Construction Zone original street sign painting by RD-357, also known as Real Deal, encapsulates the essence of street pop art through its provocative use of public signage repurposed for artistic expression. Created in 2012, this mixed media acrylic and spray paint artwork transforms a New York City construction zone 'No Trespassing' sign into a canvas, depicting the iconic Batman villain played by Heath Ledger in a way that both challenges and captivates the viewer. Contextualizing RD-357's Artistic Approach RD-357, an artist whose real name remains elusive in the true spirit of street art anonymity, is known for his gritty interpretations of pop culture figures on unconventional canvases. This particular artwork measures 24x24 inches and is a testament to street art's versatility, pushing beyond traditional boundaries. RD-357 draws upon the anarchic spirit of the Joker, using a symbol of law and order – a construction sign – to present an image of chaos and rebellion. The irony is palpable; the sign, which once stood as a warning against unauthorized entry, now invites viewers to engage with the art in a personal, almost aggressive manner. Symbolism and Impact in RD-357's Joker Artwork This piece is not just a portrait; it is a statement. By choosing Heath Ledger's Joker, RD-357 taps into the collective consciousness of a society fascinated by the anti-hero archetype. Ledger's portrayal of the Joker was posthumously celebrated, and his death in 2008 left a cultural imprint that RD-357 leverages in this artwork. The juxtaposition of the Joker’s figure against the backdrop of a New York construction sign speaks volumes about the chaotic undercurrents within the perceived order of urban life. The use of mixed media, with acrylic and spray paint, highlights street art's raw, visceral nature, while also paying homage to the vibrancy of pop art. The viewer is confronted with the Joker's gaze, which, coupled with the bright warning colors of the construction sign, creates an unsettling yet magnetic presence. This interaction compels the audience to contemplate the layers of meaning behind the piece – from transforming public property into a medium for personal expression to the dialogue between art and spectator that challenges societal norms and the very definition of public space. In conclusion, RD-357's Heath Ledger Joker on a New York City construction sign is an outstanding example of how street pop art can merge cultural iconography with subversive messaging. Through this piece, the artist immortalizes a beloved film character and raises questions about authority, ownership, and the role of art in public discourse. The artwork remains a one-of-a-kind testament to the power of graffiti art to redefine spaces and provoke thought long after the paint has dried.

Ink Head Slick Yellow Silkscreen Print by OG Slick Hand-Pulled 14-Color on 298gsm Stonehenge Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork. 2022 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 55 Artwork Size 24x24 Silkscreen Print of Mickey Mouse Cartoon Guan Yin Throwing Hand Signs With Upper Body and Face Blacked Out With Black. "Ink Head Slick Yellow" is a mesmerizing silkscreen print crafted by the renowned graffiti artist, OG Slick. Exemplifying a seamless blend of pop art, street art, and graffiti art, this hand-pulled 14-color silkscreen print has been meticulously set on a 298gsm Stonehenge Fine Art Paper, emphasizing the precision and attention to detail that the artist is known for. With a limited edition count of only 55, each piece is authenticated with OG Slick's signature and bears a unique edition number, elevating its exclusivity. At the heart of the artwork is a provocative representation of the beloved Mickey Mouse cartoon character, reimagined as Guan Yin, the Goddess of Compassion. This depiction intriguingly showcases Guan Yin, traditionally seen as a symbol of mercy and compassion, throwing hand signs, a gesture frequently seen in street art. The upper body and face of Mickey Mouse are cloaked in black, offering an intense contrast against the vibrant backdrop and evoking a sense of mystery. The inspiration behind this distinctive portrayal stems from OG Slick's childhood memories of Chinatown. There, small figurines placed at store registers were believed to bestow good fortune upon the shop owner and those who offered money. This traditional practice is cleverly juxtaposed with a modern twist in the artwork, where Guan Yin is illustrated being showered with digital currency, hinting at the evolving dynamics of value, faith, and the digital age. Through "Ink Head Slick Yellow", OG Slick has once again demonstrated his unique ability to amalgamate cultural symbols, childhood memories, and urban influences, creating an art piece that resonates deeply with both traditional and contemporary sentiments.

C/S I 9-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Distressed Pearl White Finish Silkscreen Print on 250gsm Stonehenge White Fine Art Paper by OG Slick x Chaz Bojorquez Rare Street Art Famous Pop Artwork Artist. 2016 Signed by OG Slick x Chaz Bojorquez & Numbered Limited Edition of 150 P1  Exploring the Intricacies of C/S I by OG Slick and Chaz Bojorquez The collaboration between OG Slick and Chaz Bojorquez has given rise to C/S I, a 9-color hand-pulled limited edition silkscreen print that showcases the nuanced synergy between street pop art and graffiti artwork. Crafted in 2016, this work is part of a limited series, each piece bearing the artist's signature and numbered P1 out of 150, marking its exclusivity and importance as a collector's item. The collaboration between these two stalwarts of the street art scene synthesizes their distinct artistic voices into a unified visual statement that resonates with the energy and ethos of the urban landscape from which it draws inspiration. OG Slick, whose roots are firmly planted in the street culture of Los Angeles, brings his iconic imagery to the collaboration. His contributions to the C/S I print are characterized by the cartoon-like gloves that gesture towards the viewer, a direct and impactful use of imagery that has become a signature of his work. This graphical element starkly contrasts the intricate background, inviting a dialogue about the interaction between pop culture and the subversive nature of graffiti art. Signature Elements and Cultural Commentary in C/S I Chaz Bojorquez's influence within the C/S I print is unmistakable. His signature calligraphic style, derived from the Cholo writing of East Los Angeles, provides a rich textual backdrop to Slick's bold graphical elements. The layers of text in print are reminiscent of the palimpsest nature of street art, where messages are layered upon one another, creating a complex tapestry that speaks to the community's pulse. Bojorquez's artistry with letters goes beyond mere aesthetics, delving into the identity politics and social narratives that have always been at the heart of his work. The distressed pearl white finish on the print adds a dimension of age and texture, suggesting a weathered quality often found in street art exposed to the elements. This choice of finish not only enhances the visual depth of the piece but also bridges the gap between the transient nature of street art and the permanence sought by fine art pieces. The Stonehenge White Fine Art Paper, known for its quality and durability, reinforces the intention to preserve the fleeting beauty of street art in a form that stands the test of time. The Limited Edition Nature of C/S I and Its Collectibility The limited edition nature of the C/S I print underscores its value within street pop art and graffiti artwork. The fact that only 150 of these prints exist, each signed by the artists OG Slick and Chaz Bojorquez, elevates the work from mere reproduction to a coveted art piece. Collectors and enthusiasts of street art are drawn to the visual appeal of the work and the cultural capital that such a limited series represents. Owning a piece of this series is akin to holding a fragment of street art history, a snapshot of the moment when two renowned artists converged to leave an indelible mark on the art world. Impact of C/S I on the Perception of Street Art The impact of C/S I goes beyond the boundaries of traditional graffiti and street art. By situating the work within the context of pop art, OG Slick and Chaz Bojorquez challenge the viewer to reconsider the distinctions between high art and urban art forms. The collaboration speaks to the versatility and adaptability of street art, its ability to comment on and absorb influences from various artistic movements, and its persistent quest to gain legitimacy and respect within the art hierarchy. The print's visual elements reflect a sophisticated understanding of cultural symbols, iconography, and the power of the written word, all staples in street pop art and graffiti artwork. The collaboration between OG Slick and Chaz Bojorquez on C/S I is symbolic of a movement that refuses to be categorized simplistically, instead insisting on a complex identity as fluid and vibrant as the streets from which it originates. Through their artistic fusion, these artists contribute to the ongoing narrative of street art as a form that constantly evolves yet remains true to its roots in the urban tapestry.

C/S II 9-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Distressed Pearl White Finish Silkscreen Print on 250gsm Stonehenge White Fine Art Paper by OG Slick x Chaz Bojorquez Rare Street Art Famous Pop Artwork Artist. 2016 Signed by OG Slick x Chaz Bojorquez & Numbered Limited Edition of 150 P2 The Fusion of Styles in C/S II by OG Slick and Chaz Bojorquez The collaboration between OG Slick and Chaz Bojorquez on the C/S II silkscreen print represents a significant moment in street pop art and graffiti artwork. This piece, created in 2016, is a fine example of how two artists can merge their distinctive styles to create a unique work that reflects their individual artistic identities. The 9-color hand-pulled limited edition distressed pearl white finish silkscreen print on 250gsm Stonehenge White Fine Art Paper is a testament to the meticulous craftsmanship and artistic vision shared by the two legends of the street art scene. OG Slick, an artist with a background deeply rooted in the Los Angeles graffiti movement, brings his iconic imagery and urban sensibilities to the piece. Known for his bold and often subversive visual language, Slick’s contribution to C/S II is immediately apparent in the stylized cartoon hands and contemporary iconography that speaks to street culture's commercial and gritty aspects. His work has often been characterized by a playfulness that belies a more profound commentary on social and cultural issues. This is evident in how he manipulates familiar symbols and characters to challenge viewers’ perceptions. Chaz Bojorquez's Signature Style in C/S II Chaz Bojorquez’s influence in the piece is equally profound. His signature style, which draws from the Cholo graffiti tradition and his sophisticated understanding of typography, complements Slick’s more whimsical elements with a sense of gravity and history. The calligraphic strokes and the intricate lettering in the background of C/S II are unmistakably Bojorquez’s, showcasing his mastery over form and ability to convey a rich cultural narrative through his art. His work captures the essence of a subculture that has often been marginalized, elevating it to a level of fine art that demands recognition and respect. The collaboration between these two artists on C/S II is a dialogue between different eras and styles within the street art genre. While OG Slick’s work is often seen as a bridge between the early days of street art and the modern aesthetic, Bojorquez represents the soulful, enduring aspects of graffiti art woven into the cultural fabric of urban life. Together, their work on this print creates a complex interplay of color, form, and symbolism that celebrates street art’s past and a bold statement about its future. Cultural Significance of the Limited Edition C/S II Print The cultural significance of the C/S II print lies in its embodiment of the spirit of street pop art and graffiti artwork. Limited to an edition of 150, each print is signed by OG Slick and Chaz Bojorquez, making it a rare and collectible piece that holds great value for street art lovers. The decision to limit the edition not only underscores the value of the artwork but also speaks to the ethos of street art, where the fleeting nature of the medium often means that works can be temporary and transient. By capturing this transient essence in a tangible form, OG Slick and Bojorquez have created a lasting artifact of street culture. The piece is particularly notable for its distressed pearl white finish, which adds texture and depth to the print. This finish gives the artwork a tactile quality that invites closer inspection and suggests a history behind the image as if it has been weathered by time and the elements – a nod to the real-world conditions of street art. The use of Stonehenge White Fine Art Paper further elevates the piece, marrying the raw energy of graffiti with the refinement of fine art printing techniques. Impact and Legacy of C/S II in Street Art and Pop Culture The impact and legacy of C/S II in street art and pop culture are significant. By bringing together two influential artists from different generations, the print bridges the early days of Los Angeles graffiti and the contemporary street art scene. It reflects the genre's evolution, showing how it can be a personal means of expression and a sophisticated art form. The print’s aesthetic, marked by the interplay of Bojorquez’s calligraphic skill and Slick’s graphic sensibility, exemplifies the potential of street art to engage with broader artistic movements and to be recognized in the wider context of pop art. As a piece of street pop and graffiti artwork, C/S II is a powerful example of the genre’s ability to adapt and grow while retaining its core principles. It is a reminder of the enduring influence of artists like OG Slick and Chaz Bojorquez, who continue to shape and inspire the trajectory of street art. Through works like this, they ensure that the streets' vibrant energy, defiance, and creativity remain a vital part of our cultural landscape.
