    Shepard Fairey- OBEY The Greed Depression Large Format Silkscreen Print by NoName x Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    The Greed Depression Large Format Silkscreen Print by NoName x Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled on Deckled Archival Cotton Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. 2023 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 80 Artwork Size 23.75x31.5 Silkscreen Print "My friend No Name and I collaborated recently on a print inspired by my cover for George Orwell’s “Down and Out in Paris and London” and our mutual irritation with greed and the brutality of many aspects of capitalism. No Name and I are both frustrated by the forces which convince much of the public to fall in line with a system that grinds them (and most of us) in its gears, and contributes to feelings of insecurity. With that in mind, don’t buy this print if you should use the money for something better or nothing at all. Should you think it over and still want a print, your money will support No Name’s public art endeavors and survival within the gears of capitalism… oh, and mine too! We both appreciate the support. No Name wrote about the print in greater depth, so I’ll let him take it from here!" -Shepard Fairey "I was introduced to Georg Orwell’s novels back in the late ’90s through my english teacher, an insignificant-looking sarcastic little man, who mantra-like implanted us the adage “use your common sense.” Nearly one decade later, I rediscovered Orwell’s books – and thoughts – through the appealing cover layout design by the kindred spirit street art activist Shepard Fairey, who I’m glad to call a friend today for many years. Shepard and I were discussing his illustration for “Down and Out” which he actually, for some reason, hadn’t made as a print edition yet. Due to the fact that Orwell’s dystopian books were/are one of the leading inspirations for our philosophy and work, Shepard offered to team up and use the illustration for a collaboration." -NoNAME

  • MQ Silver Tag Dollar Original Marker Drawing by MQ Planet- Mque MQ Silver Tag Dollar Original Marker Drawing by MQ Planet- Mque

    MQ Planet- Mque MQ Silver Tag Dollar Original Marker Drawing by MQ Planet- Mque

    MQ Silver Tag Dollar Original Marker Drawing by MQ Planet- Mque on USA Currency 1 Dollar Bill &  100 Lot Modern Street Pop Artwork. 2023 Signed by Tag Original Silver & Black Permanent Marker Drawing Size 6x2.75 On Real USA 1 Dollar Bill Currency. Also Includes 2x 100 Dollar Bill Printings That Include Either a Printed Tag or Marker Tags, I Can't Tell, The Ink is Shiney Speckled on Tag. MQ Planet's "MQ Silver Tag Dollar": A Currency of Street Pop Art MQ Planet, known to the world by his birth name Mque, transcends traditional art forms by merging the mediums of street pop art and graffiti artwork with the emblematic canvas of currency. The "MQ Silver Tag Dollar," a 2023 signed original artwork, is a sterling example of how the raw energy of street art can be encapsulated on the canvas of a real USA 1-dollar bill currency. Measuring 6x2.75 inches, this piece features a silver and black permanent marker drawing, underscoring the artist's innovative approach to modern street pop art. Monetary Medium: A New Avenue for Expression Using currency as a canvas is not merely a choice but a statement, a way for MQ Planet to embed its message within the very fibers of everyday transactions. Imprinting his iconic tag onto a dollar bill is provocative; it transforms the bill from a piece of legal tender into a piece of art, challenging the viewer to reconsider the value we place on money versus art. The "MQ Silver Tag Dollar" exemplifies how the artist capitalizes on the ubiquity of currency to disseminate his vision, ensuring that his art circulates as freely as the dollar itself. The piece is not just art; it becomes a vehicle for transmitting street pop culture. MQ Planet: An Artistic Alchemist In the hands of MQ Planet, the dollar bill transcends its monetary purpose, becoming alchemized into something of far greater cultural significance. With the "MQ Silver Tag Dollar," Mque performs an act of artistic alchemy, turning the ordinary into the extraordinary. His choice of a silver marker is deliberate, contrasting the verdant green of the dollar bill and giving the tag a chrome-like sheen that demands attention. The tag, a bold representation of the artist's signature, is both a personal mark and a universal symbol within the graffiti community. It signifies ownership and presence, a graffiti artist's claim over space—even on something as small as a dollar bill. The "MQ Silver Tag Dollar" is a testament to the enduring versatility and adaptability of street pop art and graffiti artwork. It exemplifies how artists like MQ Planet continuously push the boundaries of their craft, finding new ways to engage with audiences and leave an indelible mark on the cultural landscape. Through works like this, MQ Planet leaves his signature on a physical object and imprints his vision onto the very fabric of pop culture.

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.
