AP Artist Proof 2015 Signed & Marked AP Limited Edition Artwork Size 19.3x24 Honoring Maurice Sendak, Famous Max Character from Where Wild Things Roam in Rare Orange Variant. Pop Art Interpretation of a Literary Classic "Wild Forever Orange AP" is a giclée print by Gary Taxali that pays homage to Maurice Sendak's famous Max character from the classic children's book "Where the Wild Things Are."

Measuring 19.3x24 inches, the artwork is a rare orange variant that infuses a contemporary feel into the beloved character, bridging the gap between illustration, street art, and pop culture. Taxali's "Wild Forever Orange AP" channels the spirit of Max, the rebellious protagonist of Sendak's story, reimagining him as a flag-bearing figure that encapsulates the untamed spirit of youth. The print embodies the energy and ethos of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork, with Taxali's unique stylistic approach that combines the graphic sensibility of vintage comics and advertisements with a modern graffiti twist. The choice of the orange hue and the bold, black outlines are reminiscent of classic pop art, bringing a sense of nostalgia and timelessness to the piece.

Through this piece, Taxali celebrates a beloved character and provides commentary on the enduring nature of wildness and freedom in the human spirit. These themes resonate deeply within the street art community. Using an actual street art medium, the giclée print, to portray a traditionally illustrated character further emphasizes this cross-disciplinary dialogue. The concept of an artist proof in printmaking is usually associated with a small group of prints taken from the edition for the artist's personal use. These proofs are often seen as more valuable due to their rarity and the artist's direct involvement. Taxali's signed and marked AP print, part of a limited edition, comes with the cachet of exclusivity and the personal touch of the artist's hand, elevating its status as a collectible item. Impact on the Modern Art Scene "Wild Forever Orange AP" is a vibrant example of how contemporary artists like Gary Taxali redefine the boundaries of street art, pop art, and illustration. By taking inspiration from a character that has left an indelible mark on popular culture, Taxali weaves a narrative that is both familiar and fresh, reflecting the ability of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork to continually evolve and engage with new and diverse audiences. Gary Taxali's "Wild Forever Orange AP" print celebrates artistic freedom and is a nod to the rebellious nature that characterizes much of street and pop art. It is a work that encapsulates the playful yet poignant nature of Taxali's art, offering a piece that is rich in cultural resonance and aesthetic appeal and stands as a testament to the enduring power of street-inspired pop art.

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.

Stormtrooper Messiah Limited Edition Archival Pigment Fine Art Prints on Moab Entrada Fine Art Paper by Graffiti Street Art and Pop Culture Artist Ron English. 2021 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 100 Archival Pigment Print in Colors on Moab Entrada Fine Art Paper Artwork Size 17x22 The "Stormtrooper Messiah" is a limited edition work of art by the critically acclaimed artist Ron English, known for his provocative blend of street art and pop culture iconography. This particular piece is one of a series of 100 archival pigment prints, each signed and numbered to assure its collectability and authenticity. The artwork measures 17x22 inches and is rendered on Moab Entrada Fine Art Paper, a choice that denotes high quality and ensures the longevity and vibrancy of the colors used in the print. This piece by English is a powerful commentary on the intersections of ideology, iconography, and the indoctrination mechanisms within our society. It reimagines a standard stormtrooper - a symbol of the faceless enforcer from the "Star Wars" franchise - in the garb of a religious icon, precisely resembling the Messiah. This fusion of imagery from distant corners of culture spotlights the often unexamined devotion we have to certain facets of pop culture, paralleling religious fervor. English’s choice of a stormtrooper, an emblem of collective identity and unyielding authority, enveloped in the trappings of a spiritual figure, questions the role of such figures and the institutions behind them in shaping beliefs and behaviors. The artist employs luminous and contrasting colors to breathe a sense of reverence into the figure, an approach that reflects the aura often associated with religious artworks. The flowing robes in vivid hues give the subject a sense of motion and ethereal presence, intensifying the impact of the visual juxtaposition. The "Stormtrooper Messiah" is more than a piece of fine art; it's a visual discourse that challenges the viewers to reflect on the narratives and symbols that influence their understanding of power, culture, and spirituality. Ron English, through his distinctive merger of street art's grit and pop art's fascination with the mainstream, has created an arresting image that continues to spark conversations in the art community and beyond.

Iron Man 3- Box Office Limited Edition Archival Pigment Print on 330gsm Fine Art Paper by Bask street artist modern pop art. "Last June, a friend called me saying that Robert Downey Jr. and the production team wanted to use one of my paintings, When It Rains It Pours, in the next Iron Man film. So I created it to their size specification of 5ft wide and 13ft tall and the piece was put into Iron Man Tony Starks' home in the film. Then they asked me if I’d be interested in doing more work for the Mandarin’s lair a few months later when they were shooting in Miami. I of course said yes, and ended up doing 13 more massive paintings and some set design for them along with the Iron Man mask you see here. They asked me to create a design for the wrap of the film last year. They made shirts and postcards for the set department with that image. So while this doesn't appear in the film it was definitely a big part of the project." - BASK
