    Burn Baby Burn 2-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Letterpress Print on Cream Speckle Tone Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. 10 inches by 13 inches Edition of 450 February 2, 2021 About Burn Baby Burn, inspired by the aesthetics of “live fast – die young” rock ’n’ roll, is a critique of some harmful habits we are addicted to. Not just the harmful effects of burning fossil fuels, but also the dangerous psychology of denial and nihilism that underpins the apathy toward the planet’s future (and ours)! Whether it is the defiant greed of the fossil fuel corporations or the indifference of a public comfortable with status quo habits around fossil fuels, further delay in transitioning to renewable energy sources will be catastrophic for the planet and all of its species. I know that none of us like the idea of disrupting a comfortable habit.-Shepard Fairey

  • Art in Action Lichtenstein Archival Print by Jeff Gillette

    Jeff Gillette Art in Action Lichtenstein Archival Print by Jeff Gillette

    Art in Action- Lichtenstein 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" is a stimulating archival pigment fine art limited edition print by the street pop art graffiti legend Jeff Gillette. Manifested on 290gsm Moab Entrada fine art paper, this captivating work of art, sized at 16x20 inches, encapsulates the dynamic intersection of pop art sensibility with the raw, energetic essence of street art. Signed and numbered in a limited edition of just 100 pieces in 2022, this print infuses Gillette's gritty, critical eye into the colorful, bold graphics reminiscent of Roy Lichtenstein's iconic style. Gillette's work is characterized by a juxtaposition of the whimsical and the frail, often contrasting Disney-like imagery with dystopian environments, thereby creating a thought-provoking dialogue on consumerism, culture, and the underlying narratives of society. His "Art in Action" piece is a perfect illustration of this theme. The visual pop art allusion in print, which reflects Lichtenstein's famed comic strip-inspired art, is cleverly subverted by Gillette's infusion of a street-wise attitude, adding a layer of satire and commentary to the vibrant explosions and comic book aesthetics that defined a generation's art. The explosive "WHAM!" in the backdrop directly nods to Lichtenstein's style. Yet, Gillette ensures his interpretation stands distinct, inviting contemplation on the implications of such imagery in a world far removed from the innocuous panels of mid-century comic books. This artwork's inclusion of the chaotic character figures provides a stark, reflective contrast to the clean, mechanized precision of Lichtenstein's work, suggesting a deeper narrative beneath the surface gloss of pop culture. By merging the techniques and finish of fine art prints with the visceral impact of street and graffiti art, Gillette bridges two worlds often seen in contrast. His work doesn't just hang on a gallery wall; it invokes the street-level engagement and societal critique that is the hallmark of the most impactful graffiti art. Collectors and enthusiasts of this genre will find "Art in Action" a thought-provoking addition to their collection, offering a piece that is as conversation-starting as it is aesthetically compelling.

    David Molesky UltraS PP Archival Print by David Molesky

    UltraS PP Printer Proof Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 310gsm Fine Art Paper by David Molesky, a Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. PP Printers Proof 2016 Signed & Marked PP Limited Edition Artwork Size 24x20 "This painting is the masterpiece from my series of paintings based on media images of the revolution in Kyiv. It's the largest of the eight paintings and the one I spent the most time on. 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 paintings. For the last decade, I have tried to depict universal time and avoided artificial objects. I've dropped that dogma. I love that the subject is current and contains elements that seem from another era. For example, the old school puffy down jacket and the overall color looks a bit like old film tone." - David Molesky. The Convergence of Revolution and Art in David Molesky's "UltraS" David Molesky's "UltraS PP Printer Proof" stands out as a pivotal creation that captures the essence of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork while being deeply rooted in the historical context of the revolution in Kyiv. As an archival pigment print on 310gsm fine art paper, this piece holds significant value in its material quality and profound thematic content. The limited edition print, marked and signed by Molesky himself, measures 24x20 inches, providing a substantial canvas for the artist's vision. Molesky's journey through the artistic depiction of universal time and space takes a dramatic turn with "UltraS." The painting eschews his previous avoidance of temporal and artificial elements, plunging instead into the immediacy of current events with a raw and gripping portrayal of the human spirit in times of conflict. The "UltraS" series, specifically this print, departs from Molesky's earlier figurative painting, venturing into a more dynamic and narratively rich territory. The artwork is an amalgamation of past and present, a visual dialogue between the history it draws from and the contemporary medium of its expression. The print itself, a Printer's Proof, bears the unique distinction of being a precursor to the final limited edition run, carrying with it the artist's nuances and direct hand. The markings and the signature on each PP print confirm its authenticity and exclusivity, making it a coveted item for collectors and admirers of modern pop art. In "UltraS," Molesky achieves a striking balance between the static and the kinetic. The image of the solitary figure, poised against a backdrop of fiery chaos, encapsulates a moment of intense action and profound stillness. This figure, adorned in an "old school puffy down jacket," is an anachronistic anchor, throwing the viewer into a liminal space where time converges. The overall coloration of the print, reminiscent of old film tones, further imbues the scene with a sense of history and gravitas. David Molesky's Artistic Evolution Through "UltraS" The "UltraS" piece is not just an artwork but a historical document and a visual commentary, encapsulating the enthusiasm and the ethos of the streets. By adopting elements from graffiti art, Molesky infuses the piece with authenticity and an edge typically reserved for the most impactful street art. The scrawled "UltraS" on the side of the burning vehicle is a nod to the graffiti tradition, a signature that declares both presence and resistance. This Printer's Proof edition of "UltraS" is a testament to Molesky's artistic maturation. It showcases his willingness to engage with the present, to document it, and to reflect on it through his art. The series demonstrates a clear narrative progression in his work, embracing the current moment with all its complexities and contradictions. The impact of "UltraS" lies in its capacity to transcend the temporal boundaries that often define street art. Molesky's print is a snapshot of a single event and a broader exploration of the human condition amidst societal turmoil. It is a piece that resonates with the urgency of now while simultaneously capturing the echoes of the past. For the art world, "UltraS" represents a significant contribution to the discourse of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork. It is a work that demands contemplation, speaks to the soul of the viewer, and invites us to ponder the role of art in reflecting and shaping our perception of historical events. David Molesky's "UltraS" is not just a piece to be viewed; it is an experience to be absorbed, a dialogue to be entered, and a reflection of our world.

  • UltraS Archival Print by David Molesky

    David Molesky UltraS Archival Print by David Molesky

    UltraS Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 310gsm Fine Art Paper by David Molesky, a Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2016 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 50 Artwork Size 24x20 "This painting is the masterpiece from my series of paintings based on media images of the revolution in Kiev. It's 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. For example, the old school puffy down jacket and the overall color looks a bit like old film tone." - David Molesky David Molesky's "UltraS" in the Landscape of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork David Molesky's "UltraS" emerges as a significant piece within the modern landscape of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork, presenting a stirring visual narrative that blends contemporary unrest with a sense of timeless struggle. As a limited edition series, Molesky offers only fifty archival pigment prints on 310gsm fine art paper, each piece signed and numbered, underscoring this work's exclusivity and collectible nature. Sized at an impactful 24x20 inches, "UltraS" is a cornerstone of Molesky's artistic evolution. The artwork transcends the conventional boundaries of street art by integrating the raw vigor of graffiti with the sophisticated depth of fine art. Molesky’s technique is marked by meticulous attention to detail and a rich palette that echoes the hues of historical film tones, infusing the piece with a unique vintage quality despite its contemporary subject. The scene depicted is one of chaotic beauty, set against a backdrop of revolution—a reference to the events that transpired in Kyiv. Through his art, Molesky captures the turbulence of these times, channeling the dynamic energy and emotion that define moments of societal upheaval. In "UltraS," the focal point is the figure clad in an old-school puffy down jacket, a style choice that intentionally bridges eras, connecting the present to the past. This figure is set against the fiery blaze that engulfs what appears to be a derelict vehicle, with the thick smoke and flames rendered with such realism that they seem to leap off the paper. The contrast between the stoic determination of the figure and the destructive environment around him serves as a potent metaphor for resilience in the face of chaos. Molesky’s shift from his prior figurative work to a narrative that embraces artificial objects and contemporary events marks a significant pivot in his artistic journey. By discarding his previous avoidance of temporal elements, he forges a new path that allows him to comment on current events through his art. The "UltraS" series, particularly this piece, reflects this transformation, as Molesky immerses himself in street art's raw, unfiltered essence while maintaining a delicate art sensibility. The significance of "UltraS" within street pop art and graffiti Art lies in its aesthetic, historical relevance, and ability to capture a snapshot of revolutionary spirit. It is a visual exploration of the human condition, a poignant reminder of art's power to document, express, and move. For collectors and enthusiasts, owning a piece of the "UltraS" series is not just an acquisition of visual art but an embrace of a story, a moment in time, and a piece of the artist’s soul. Embracing Modernity and Nostalgia in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork With "UltraS," Molesky delves into a realm where modernity and nostalgia intersect, presenting a visual discourse that is as thought-provoking as it is aesthetically pleasing. The inclusion of graffiti-like elements—such as the word "UltraS" scrawled on the side of the burning vehicle—grounds the work in the street art tradition, a form known for its subversive edge and connection to the voices of the disenchanted and the rebellious. Yet, the chaos is elegant, a curated composition that elevates the piece from mere street art to a form of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork that holds its own in galleries and sophisticated art collections. Molesky's commitment to authenticity and ability to distill complex narratives into a single frame sets "UltraS" apart. In the pop art tradition, it comments on culture and society, but it does so with the grit and earnestness of graffiti, capturing the zeitgeist in a raw and refined way. The limited edition nature of these prints further adds to their value, not just in monetary terms but also in the cultural weight they carry as artifacts of a pivotal era in art. Through "UltraS," David Molesky invites us to reflect on the intersections of art, society, and history. His work is a testament to the enduring power of visual storytelling and the evolving landscape of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork, where every stroke, color, and form is imbued with meaning and resonates with the viewer long after the first glance.

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.
