Characterized by its use of iconic imagery intertwined with gritty urban landscapes, it stands as a vivid commentary on consumer culture and societal decay. Jeff Gillette, an acclaimed American artist, has been dubbed as "the man who destroys Disneyland," as he frequently utilizes familiar and nostalgic Disney figures juxtaposed against dystopian backdrops in his art. In this particular piece, the recognizable figure of Minnie Mouse is manipulated in an unconventional graffiti stencil style, emphasizing the essence of street art in its rawest form. The "Period 12" refers to Minnie's untimely Menstruation and the painting number. Gillette infuses this piece with a paradoxical blend of innocence and bleakness. This contrast not only critiques our media-saturated society but also invites viewers to question the impact of corporations on our shared cultural consciousness. With its unfiltered portrayal of the tension between popular culture and reality, the "Minnie Period 12 Hand Stencil Original Canvas" by Jeff Gillette stands as a powerful exemplar of modern pop and street art.

    Jeff Gillette Art in Action Invader Archival Print by Jeff Gillette

    Art in Action- Invader Archival Pigment Fine Art Limited Edition Print on 290gsm Moab Entrada Paper by Artist Jeff Gillette, Street Pop Art Graffiti Legend. 2022 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 100 Archival Pigment Print on 290gsm Moab Entrada Fine Art Paper Artwork Size 16x20 "Art in Action - Invader" captures a raw, energetic fusion of street pop art and graffiti through the lens of Jeff Gillette's distinctive approach to contemporary art. This archival pigment fine art limited edition print, pressed onto high-quality 290gsm Moab Entrada fine art paper, showcases Gillette's talent in engaging with the aesthetic and thematic elements of street culture. Each print in this limited series, sized at 16x20 inches, carries the artist's signature, certifying its authenticity and exclusive count, limited to a mere 100 pieces globally for the 2022 release. Gillette's art is often characterized by a convergence of dystopian themes with iconic elements from popular culture, which serves as a commentary on the decay and disillusionment underlying the glossy veneer of consumerism. This piece, "Art in Action - Invader," is no exception. It presents a pixelated figure, reminiscent of the popular 8-bit video game characters, which have been a notable theme in street art, particularly by the anonymous French artist known as Invader. However, Gillette takes this recognizable form and infuses it with a visceral splatter of paint, echoing the immediacy and often transgressive energy of graffiti art. The vibrant splashes of color against the stark figures not only draw visual attention but also invite reflection on the impact of digital culture in the art world and its intersection with traditional media. Gillette's use of the Invader motif interrogates the idea of space—both physical and digital—and how street art occupies and transforms public consciousness. The marriage of fine art printing techniques with the spontaneity of street art embodied in this print is a testament to the evolving narrative of art as a tool for social commentary. The limited nature of this series makes it a coveted item for collectors who seek to own a piece of art that not only stands as a visual statement but also represents a critical viewpoint on the dialogue between high art and street culture. In "Art in Action - Invader," Gillette's work is a beacon of this complex conversation, offering a snapshot of street art's ongoing evolution and its persistent echo in contemporary discourse.

Jeff Gillette

Jeff Gillette is an American contemporary artist, born in 1959, known for his dystopian and satirical artwork. He is particularly famous for his paintings and mixed-media works that combine iconic images of Disneyland with the imagery of slums, creating a jarring contrast between the two. His work often critiques consumer culture, corporate power, and the idealism of the Disney brand. Gillette gained widespread recognition in 2015 when the British street artist Banksy invited him to participate in the Dismaland project, a temporary art installation and amusement park in Weston-super-Mare, England. Dismaland was a dark and satirical take on Disneyland, and Gillette's work fit perfectly with the theme. His participation in the project helped elevate his profile in the contemporary art world. Jeff Gillette's art has been exhibited in galleries and museums across the United States and internationally, and he continues to create work that challenges societal norms and values, often using dark humor and unsettling juxtapositions to provoke thought and discussion.
