    Tom Dula Black 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 2012 Signed & Marked AP Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print—Lonesome Tree Stylized Old Gnarled Tree in Western Desert Setting. Thomas C. Dula was a former Confederate soldier who was convicted of murdering Laura Foster, based on a song made famous by Kingston Trio. Shepard Fairey's "Tom Dula Black AP" is a silkscreen print that fuses historical narrative with the artist's signature graphic style. Created in 2012, this piece is part of a limited edition set, hand-pulled with a color process on Fairey’s preferred medium, cream speckletone fine art paper. Each print in the series bears Fairey's signature and the distinctive 'AP' mark, denoting it as an Artist Proof. This status is often valued due to its rarity and direct connection to the artist's initial vision.

Dula, a former Confederate soldier whose name became immortalized in the folk song "Tom Dooley" following his controversial conviction and execution for the murder of Laura Foster. Fairey's choice to represent this narrative through a stark and solitary tree amidst an arid terrain reflects the isolation and finality of Dula's fate. This print stands out in pop and street art for its storytelling through visual symbolism. The work does not merely capture viewers' attention with its aesthetic but also invites them to engage with a deeper historical narrative, a characteristic often found in Fairey's body of work. It showcases the artist's ability to navigate the intersection of pop culture and fine art, where historical references become part of the modern visual lexicon.

  • Punisher Crossing Original Street Sign Painting by RD-357 Real Deal

    RD-357 Real Deal Punisher Crossing Original Street Sign Painting by RD-357 Real Deal

    Punisher Crossing Original Street Sign Painting by RD-357 Real Deal One of a Kind Artwork on Real Metal Crosswalk Street Sign by Graffiti Art Pop Artist. 2012 Signed Mixed Media Acrylic & Spray Paint on Real Reclaimed NYC New York City Crossing Cross Walk Street Sign Painting Original Artwork Size 30x37.5  RD-357: Pioneering Street Pop Art on Urban Canvases RD-357, an artist known for his distinctive contribution to street pop art and graffiti artwork, has manifested his creativity through a unique, striking, and thought-provoking medium. His original piece titled "Punisher Crossing Original Street Sign Painting" encapsulates street art's raw essence while ingeniously infusing pop culture iconography elements. This work is a stellar example of RD-357's inventive use of everyday objects as canvases, transforming a mundane metal crosswalk street sign into a vibrant artwork that commands attention and sparks dialogue. The "Punisher Crossing" is a unique artwork that exudes the rebellious spirit and subversive edge often associated with street pop art. Created in 2012, this mixed media piece employs acrylic and spray paint on a real crossing sign measuring 30x37.5 inches. RD-357's choice to use an actual street sign as the foundation for his artwork not only repurposes the object but also embeds the art piece within the fabric of urban life it seeks to comment on. The sign, once a directive for pedestrians, now carries a powerful visual message, made all the more potent by its placement on an object of regulation and order. The Artistic Language of RD-357's Street Sign Paintings In "Punisher Crossing," RD-357 demonstrates a masterful control over color and composition. The background of the sign is ablaze with a vivid, almost violent splatter of yellow and red spray paint, reminiscent of the chaos and energy of city streets. Against this explosive backdrop, the figure of the Punisher is rendered with precision in acrylic, his stark, menacing presence immediately drawing the eye. The character's hand, outstretched and holding a gun, breaks the boundaries of the sign's frame, suggesting a defiance of constraints and a breaking free from imposed limits. RD-357's work is deeply embedded in the language of street pop art, a genre that combines the gritty, underground aesthetic of street art with the bright, graphic quality of pop art. His paintings, especially this piece, are a dialogue between the artist and the urban landscape, between the fictional characters of pop culture and the reality of the viewer's environment. By bringing the Punisher - a symbol of vigilante justice and anti-heroism - into the context of a crosswalk sign, RD-357 creates a juxtaposition that is at once startling and intriguing. The artwork becomes a statement on control and chaos, power and powerlessness, and the fine line between societal order and individual action. RD-357's Impact on Contemporary Street Art RD-357's contributions to the street art scene have been significant, and his influence can be seen in the way street pop art has evolved over the years. His artworks, particularly those on street signs, are more than mere paintings; they are interventions into the urban environment, which challenge the viewer to reconsider the role and potential of public space. The "Punisher Crossing" sign is emblematic of this approach, seamlessly integrating art into the city's daily liandlso elevating the discourse around street art. By signing his work, the artist claims ownership of a public domain piece, an act that is a form of artistic rebellion. The signature on "Punisher Crossing" is not merely a mark of authenticity; it is a declaration of presence, a proof of the artist's interaction with the world around him. Through works like this, RD-357 has etched his name into the annals of street pop art history, securing his place as a maverick who has expanded the possibilities of graffiti artwork. The "Punisher Crossing Original Street Sign Painting" by RD-357 stands as a testament to the power of street pop art to communicate, provoke, and inspire. By transforming a simple street sign into a complex and compelling work of art, RD-357 challenges perceptions, invites reflection, and continues influencing the ever-evolving narrative of street and graffiti art.

    Rollins Capitalism- Signed by Henry Rollins 2-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Fine Speckletone Art Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. Signed by Henery Rollins, Signed & Numbered Screen Print ROLLINS CAPITALISM Screen Print 18 x 24 inches Edition of 1200 August 28, 2012 Henry Rollins has been a hero of mine since I got into Black Flag in 1984. Henry is a role model in his amazing taste and output in music, his political engagement, his monumental work ethic, and his social consciousness. Henry tours a ton and stays very aware of the world. Back before the 2008 recession started, Henry had an editorial segment on his TV show where he said “the president says the fundamentals of the economy are strong…I say start learning Chinese”. Henry’s new tour is called CAPITALISM and I’m sure he will have a lot of wise, funny, and maybe prophetic things to say. I was given the honor by Henry of illustrating his concept for the tour, him as a beaten-down Uncle Sam. I have a few of the prints available on my site signed by both me and Henry. The rest will be available on Henry’s tour which everyone should see. Pick a print up before the American brand of capitalism crumbles under the weight of its own ego. -Shepard Fairey

  • The Triumphant Warrior Giclee Print by Buff Monster

    Buff Monster The Triumphant Warrior Giclee Print by Buff Monster

    The Triumphant Warrior Artwork Limited Edition Giclee Print on Fine Art Paper by Modern Artist Buff Monster. 2012 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 50 Artwork Size 24x24 "The Triumphant Warrior" is a testament to Buff Monster's distinctive style within pop and street art, brought to life through a limited edition giclee print on fine art paper. This 2012 piece is set against a stark and stylized landscape, featuring a one-eyed pink character reminiscent of soft-serve ice cream, triumphantly standing over a vanquished dragon. The print measures 24x24 inches and is part of a limited edition series, with only 50 signed and numbered pieces, adding to its value and collectability. Buff Monster's work is often characterized by its bright, vibrant colors and whimsical themes. It draws heavily from various cultural influences, including Japanese Kawaii—a style emphasizing cuteness, graffiti art, and classic American cartoon imagery. In "The Triumphant Warrior," these elements are on full display; the pink hue of the central character pops against the muted background, drawing the eye directly to the subject. The scene humorously subverts the classic trope of a brave knight slaying a dragon by replacing the knight with a playful, almost childlike creature wielding a spear with a cherry on top. This artwork not only captures Buff Monster's iconic use of the color pink but also incorporates his recurring eye motif, which together provide a signature look that is instantly recognizable. Giclée printing technology ensures that each detail, from the glossy shine of the creature's head to the intricate patterns on the fallen dragon, is reproduced with high fidelity. The fine art paper serves as an ideal canvas, ensuring that each print retains the visual impact of the original work. By releasing "The Triumphant Warrior" as a limited edition, Buff Monster creates a sense of urgency and exclusivity around the artwork, principles often seen in street art, where the impermanent nature of the medium is part of its charm. Collectors of this piece not only obtain a slice of Buff Monster's world but also engage with the dialogue between street art's transient nature and the enduring form of fine art prints. This piece encapsulates the playful defiance at the heart of Buff Monster's artistic expression, embodying a triumphant spirit that is both whimsical and heroic in its own right.

Borshard, although not traditionally known as a graffiti artist, channels the spirit of graffiti's immediacy and its role as a public communicator through this piece. The characters are rendered with a stylized realism that nods to the roots of Pop Art, while the surrounding swamp is imbued with the complex, layered textures one might find in a mural painted on a city wall. This blending of styles and mediums is characteristic of contemporary Street Pop Art, which often seeks to dismantle boundaries between 'high' and 'low' art forms, making art accessible and resonant for a wider audience. The print's narrative quality, a defining feature of Borshard's work, is heightened by the strategic use of color and form, creating depth and movement that draw the viewer into the scene. The art captures a moment of tension and adventure, encapsulating the essence of the film's story while inviting personal interpretation and connection. Collectors of "The Fire Swamp" acquire a piece of art and a fragment of cinematic history reimagined through the artistic process.

Military Soldiers & Warriors Graffiti Street Pop Art

Depictions of Military Soldiers & Warriors in Street Pop Art and Graffiti

The portrayal of military soldiers and warriors within street pop art and graffiti art offers a poignant commentary on the themes of conflict, heroism, and the human condition. Artists within these vibrant art movements have long utilized the visages of soldiers and warriors as powerful motifs to convey messages about society, politics, and the impact of warfare. These depictions range from realistic renderings to symbolic representations, often infused with the artists' reflections on warfare and its consequences.

Symbolism and Expression Through Military Imagery

In street pop art, the image of the soldier or warrior can often be imbued with irony and juxtaposition. This genre has a penchant for subverting traditional symbols of power and authority, presenting them in unexpected contexts to challenge viewers' perceptions. Graffiti artists, in particular, have adopted the warrior figure to express resistance or critique militarism. Their work on public surfaces becomes a canvas for social and political discourse, with soldiers and warriors depicted in various states of action or repose, often highlighting the contrast between the glorification of war and the reality of its brutality.

Cultural Reflections and Storytelling

The stories told through these images are as diverse as the artists themselves. Some may honor the bravery and sacrifice of individuals in the military, while others might question the machinations of war and its impact on humanity. In many urban landscapes, murals of soldiers and warriors serve as memorials, commemorating historical battles or fallen heroes. Meanwhile, other artworks serve as stark reminders of the ongoing conflicts worldwide, seeking to evoke empathy or provoke thought on international affairs.

Artistic Techniques and Styles

The techniques used to depict soldiers and warriors in street pop art and graffiti are as varied as the artists' intentions. Some may use stencils and spray paint to create bold, graphic images that command attention, while others might employ brushwork and mixed media for a more nuanced approach. The use of color is often significant; for instance, the starkness of black and white can underscore the seriousness of the subject matter, while vibrant hues might be used to convey the chaos and energy of battle. In the ongoing narrative of art and society, the representation of military soldiers and warriors in street pop art and graffiti remains a dynamic and evolving expression. These images serve as reflections of the artists' perspectives on war and peace and as catalysts for public engagement with these universal themes. Through the lens of street pop art and graffiti, the soldier and warrior archetypes are continuously reinterpreted, providing a visual dialogue on the nature of conflict and the resilience of the human spirit.
