    Joan Cornellà Poopy Pants Designer Art Toy by Joan Cornellà

    Poopy Pants Designer Art Toy by Joan Cornellà Limited Edition Vinyl Sculpture Collectible Artwork by Pop Street Artist. 2021 Limited Edition of TBD Artwork Size 5x10.2 New In Box Printed Signature on Foot. Statue of a man in pink suit with fist up holding two signs reading: Stop Being Poor & Fiught The Power-Less. Joan Cornellà's "Poopy Pants" Designer Art Toy is a testament to the audaciousness and satirical depth characteristic of much of today's pop and street art. This limited edition vinyl sculpture released in the spring/summer of 2021 presents a provocative and simultaneously comedic vision. Depicting a figure in a bright pink suit, pants embarrassingly pulled down to his ankles, the artwork wields a directness in its messaging. A bold sign draped over the figure's torso declares, "Stop Being Poor," juxtaposed with another sign he holds aloft proclaiming, "Fight The Powerless." The imagery here is rife with paradox and contradiction. On one hand, the call to "Stop Being Poor" might be a sarcastic commentary on the oversimplification of societal ills and the ignorance of those in power. On the other, the message to "Fight The Powerless" lampoons the misdirection of societal rage and the frequent scapegoating of those least equipped to defend themselves. The use of the pink suit, a non-traditional and flashy color, further emphasizes the piece's defiance of convention. Joan Cornellà's artistry delves into the sometimes uncomfortable realm of social commentary, forcing viewers to confront and question established norms and values. This vinyl sculpture, with its printed signature on the foot, serves as both a collector's item and a powerful conversation piece. Standing proudly at 5x10.2 inches, the "Poopy Pants" figure is emblematic of the continued evolution of pop and street art, blurring the lines between humor, commentary, and protest.

Money & Cash

Money & Cash has been a popular topic in graffiti street art for many years. It is often used as a symbol of power, wealth, and corruption in society. Graffiti artists may use images of currency, such as dollar bills or coins, to comment on the influence of money in politics, economics, and culture. One common theme in money-related graffiti is the concept of greed. Artists may use images of fat cats or pigs with money bags to criticize those who accumulate wealth at the expense of others. Graffiti artists may also use images of dollar bills with slogans like "Money Talks" or "Cash Rules Everything" to comment on the ways in which money influences people's behavior and values. In addition to critiquing the negative aspects of money, graffiti artists may also use money-related imagery to celebrate the positive aspects of wealth and success. For example, they may create images of successful entrepreneurs or athletes who have made a significant impact on their communities. Overall, money as a topic in graffiti street art can be used to reflect on the complex and multifaceted ways in which money shapes our world. The cash sign ($) is a popular symbol used in graffiti, street art, and pop art to convey various messages related to money, power, and status. In graffiti, the cash sign is often used as a tag or signature by street artists to mark their work and gain recognition in the community. It may also be used to convey messages about wealth and consumer culture, as well as social and economic inequality. In pop art, the cash sign is frequently used as a motif to comment on the commercialization of art and society. Artists may incorporate the symbol into their work to explore themes of greed, materialism, and the commodification of culture. The use of the cash sign in graffiti, street art, and pop art reflects a complex relationship between money, power, and artistic expression in contemporary culture. ash plays a significant role in both Graffiti Art and Pop Art, although in different ways. Graffiti Art is often associated with street culture and urban environments, and it emerged as a form of rebellion against societal norms and authority. In its early days, Graffiti Art was primarily created by young people who had limited financial means and used cheap spray cans and markers to create their art. However, as Graffiti Art gained popularity and recognition, some artists began to monetize their work through commissioned pieces, selling prints, or even opening their galleries. While the commercialization of Graffiti Art has led to some controversy within the art community, it has also allowed some artists to earn a living from their work. Some of the most famous Graffiti Artists, such as Banksy and Shepard Fairey, have achieved mainstream success, with their works selling for millions of dollars. In contrast, Pop Art emerged in the 1950s and 1960s as a response to consumer culture and the increasing commercialization of art. Pop Artists such as Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, and Claes Oldenburg often incorporated images of everyday consumer objects and mass-produced items into their artwork, highlighting the pervasive influence of consumer culture on American society. The irony of Pop Art is that while it critiques consumer culture, it also celebrates it, and many Pop Artists became successful commercial artists themselves. Warhol, for example, famously declared that "Making money is art, and working is art, and good business is the best art." His prints and other works continue to sell for high prices today. While Graffiti Art emerged as a form of rebellion against authority, it has also become a commercialized art form that allows some artists to earn a living. In contrast, Pop Art critiques consumer culture while celebrating it, and many Pop Artists have themselves become successful commercial artists.
