What Drones? Limited Edition Hand-Embellished Spray Paint, Acrylic, Stencil, Mixed Media On Cradled Wood Panel by Denial Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2015 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of HPM Stencil 5 Artwork Size 48x30 Canadian artist Denial and Australian-born Ben Frost have joined forces in a bold exhibition of new work that explores the boundaries of appropriation, in confronting re-imaginings of our current dystopian society. Self-­confessed ‘visual thieves’, both artists have had a long history of stealing and subverting the cultural icons that the advertising and consumerist world has thrust upon us, to create new and pertinent interpretations that are as confronting as they are humorous. Denial and Frost formed an instant friendship since their meeting in Canada in 2011 and have been creating engaging street and gallery work ever since. "Company of Thieves" sees their collaboration push further, with large and small-scale works that reference Pop Art, Graffiti, and the corporate world they rebel against. Denial’s art is strongly political and social since the artist takes specific positions against issues, such as capitalism, consumer culture, and advertisements. More importantly, the artist is aware of his choices and motivations: “I like to think of myself as activist pop art. How I relate with cartoons and graphics is a lot easier than I do with photo-realistic stuff" Another aspect of Denial's work is humor. His work is satirical, which, by definition, means that it uses humor as a confronting mechanism.

This piece is a collection of vintage beer cans that I like." - Jesse Kassel

In Bloom I Original Painting Aerosol, Acrylic, Screenprint & Reclaimed Posters on Wood by ARTIST graffiti street Meggs modern pop art. 2012 Signed Original Mixed Media Spray Paint Acrylic Reclaimed Items Painting Framed Artwork Size 17.5x17.5 Framed Australian artist David “Meggs” Hooke for his solo exhibition Spoiled Rotten. The exhibition of over 40 new paintings and multiples explores the wondrous decay of social morality stemming from modern society’s obsession with pop culture and overindulgent materialism, and continues Meggs’ perpetual fascination with dualism and finding beauty in tragedy.“Detroit is a city of duality more so than many other cities I have been to. I sought to incorporate this by using objects and surfaces that imply decay, in what I consider to be a beautiful way. Old wooden materials and signs with layers of paint tell a story of their own. Although the colors and textures are aesthetically beautiful, I think it’s about giving these materials a new life, a second purpose.” - Meggs

I Was Here Original Hand-Painted Multiple (HPM) on Wood Cradled Panel ready to hang by Denial Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2016 Signed Limited Edition of 50 Artwork Size 12x12 "This piece explores the longevity that graffiti is normally susceptible to. The buff, white washing or the grey is a street artists worst enemy. Many mornings I have gone out to look at a piece in public I did the night before to see nothing but fresh paint over it. This piece entitled "I was here" pays tribute to those lost nights and depressing mornings" - Denial Denial is a Canadian artist who experiments with aerosol and stencil art, while his main fields of interest are consumerism, politics and the human condition in today’s society. Since the culture of graffiti was gaining more and more popularity in the US and Europe, the taggers had to be increasingly original in order to stand out. The signatures became bigger, more stylized and more colorful.

Like if you were ever seeing one then something terrible was happening. I also put some messaging in this piece that relates to what I believe is the true messaging in most television ads. Live, work, consume, die is really what TV is telling you to do, be it subliminally or not." - Denial Denial has evolved as one the most prominent figures of contemporary pop artists, who nonetheless, continue to stay relevant and is interested in generating thought-provoking commentary. He has a long history of exploring the boundaries of appropriation, which he uses as a means of subverting the value of cultural products, imprinted in the collective memory of the Western civilization. His work, in other words, is inviting the viewer to re-imagine our dystopian society as a way of confronting it, with humor and irony as the biggest tools of the artist.

I Will Love You Until The End Limited Edition Hand-Embellished Spray Paint, Acrylic, Stencil, Mixed Media On Cradled Wood Panel by Denial Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2015 Signed Limited Edition of HPM 5 Hand Embleshed Artwork Size 24x36 Canadian artist Denial and Australian-born Ben Frost have joined forces in a bold exhibition of new work that explores the boundaries of appropriation in confronting re-imaginings of our current dystopian society. Self-­confessed ‘visual thieves’, both artists have had a long history of stealing and subverting the cultural icons that the advertising and consumerist world has thrust upon us to create new and pertinent interpretations that are as confronting as they are humorous. Denial and Frost formed an instant friendship after meeting in Canada in 2011 and have been creating engaging street and gallery work ever since. "Company of Thieves" sees their collaboration push further, with large and small-scale works referencing Pop Art, Graffiti, and the corporate world they rebel against. In the world of Denial, memory is essential because it is the basis of his work, as it nostalgically encourages the audience to engage with it. As a result, his art is as familiar as it is disturbing because it reveals the most unsettling parts of society, the ones we are in a “denial” of. No matter its controversial history, graffiti is less and less viewed as a form of vandalism.

Splash Untitled Graffiti Deck Original Spray Paint And Mixed Media Skateboard Deck Art By Street Pop Culture Artist Sonic Bad x Madhaterz Bad Crew. 2010 Signed Sonic Bad Original Graffiti Art Deck Splash Untitled Graffiti Skateboard Deck By Madhaterz Bad Crew Spray Paint & Markers On A Well-worn Deck Graffiti.  Sonic Bad x Madhaterz Bad Crew's Graffiti Narratives on Skate Decks In street pop art and graffiti artwork, transforming everyday objects into pieces of cultural commentary is commonplace. Madhaterz Bad Crew, which surfaces in underground art circles, has taken this practice to new levels with the 'Splash Untitled Graffiti Deck.' This original spray paint and mixed media skateboard deck art created in 2010 is a testament to street art's fluid boundaries and raw, expressive potential. The 'Splash Untitled Graffiti Deck' by Sonic Bad x Madhaterz Bad Crew is a vibrant collage of colors, symbols, and letters that are hallmarks of classic graffiti art. The piece showcases the distinctive style of graffiti writing, where letters morph into elaborate forms that transcend readability and enter the realm of visual spectacle. Each curve and line is charged with energy, indicative of the motion and dynamism inherent in skateboarding and street art culture. Madhaterz Bad Crew employs a combination of spray paint and markers, materials that are deeply rooted in the graffiti tradition. The interplay of these mediums on the well-worn surface of the skateboard deck highlights the artist's dedication to authenticity and lived experience. The deck itself, scuffed and used, contributes to the artwork's narrative, suggesting a life and history that parallels the transient and often ephemeral nature of graffiti itself. Exploring the Cultural Context of the Graffiti Skate Decks Skateboarding culture and graffiti have long been intertwined, both seen as forms of street-level expression that challenge mainstream norms and celebrate individuality. By applying the graffiti aesthetic to a skateboard deck, Sonic Bad x Madhaterz Bad Crew fuses these two worlds and comments on the commodification of rebellion and the commercialization of street culture. Once a functional tool for transportation and tricks, the deck becomes a mobile canvas that carries the artist's message wherever it goes. The splash of colors and the intricate designs serve as a visual lexicon of street pop art, where the message is not always direct but is always felt. The piece does not shy away from the gritty origins of its art form, proudly displaying signs of wear and tear. This authenticity is central to the work's impact, grounding it in reality while allowing it to serve as a piece of visual poetry. The 'Splash Untitled Graffiti Deck' is more than just an object; it is a snapshot of the cultural zeitgeist of the early 21st century, encapsulating the spirit of defiance and creativity that defines street pop art. The artwork symbolizes the unyielding force of urban artistic expression and its ability to infuse everyday objects with profound meaning. Madhaterz Bad Crew, whose real identity, like many street artists, is shielded from public knowledge, embodies the anonymous heroism often celebrated in street art circles. The artwork continues to resonate with fans of skate culture and graffiti, serving as a reminder of the power of art to transform, confront, and engage. In the 'Splash Untitled Graffiti Deck,' Sonic Bad x Madhaterz Bad Crew has created a piece that is a visual feast and a cultural artifact that speaks to the heart of what it means to be a creator in the urban landscape. It is a celebration of street art's raw, untamed energy and its indelible mark on popular culture.

Sidewalk Closed- Wood Original Mixed Media Graffiti Artist Modern Pop Art on Real Street Sign by Sonic Bad. 2018 Signed Original Spray Paint & Mixed Media on Wooden New York City NYC Sidewalk Closed Vintage Sign Artwork Size 21.5x11.5 The Artistic Alchemy of Sonic Bad: Reimagining Public Notices Sonic Bad's 'Sidewalk Closed - Wood' is an exemplary showcase of modern pop art manifested through the lens of street sensibilities and graffiti culture. Created in 2018, this signed original piece is a vibrant declaration of the transformative power inherent in street pop art and graffiti artwork. The fusion of spray paint and mixed media on a wooden canvas that once served as a New York City sidewalk sign encapsulates the artist's penchant for repurposing the functional into the visually extraordinary. Technique and Symbolism in Sonic Bad's Work The artwork, measuring 21.5x11.5 inches, is a testament to Sonic Bad's mastery over mixed media. The piece harmoniously integrates the textures of wood with the fluidity of spray paint, achieving a layered effect that adds depth and complexity to the composition. The choice of a 'Sidewalk Closed' sign is significant; it takes an object that signifies obstruction and transforms it into a portal of creative expression, thus inviting reflection on the role of public space and the rules that govern it. Sonic Bad's approach to the sign is subversive yet playful, disrupting its original intent and engaging viewers in a dialogue about the accessibility of art and public communication. The vibrant color palette and intricate design work serve to capture the gaze and provoke thought, a hallmark of effective street pop art. The way the letterforms and characters are interwoven with the sign's warning embodies a kind of artistic alchemy, turning the mundane into the magical. Impact and Reception of Sonic Bad's Street Sign Artwork The 'Sidewalk Closed - Wood' piece by Sonic Bad does not simply occupy space; it commands attention and interaction. Its existence in a gallery or a private collection continues to challenge perceptions of street art's place within the art world hierarchy. Sonic Bad's work is celebrated for its unabashed embrace of street art aesthetics while simultaneously pushing the boundaries of what such art can communicate and how it is perceived. Sonic Bad, an artist who remains an enigmatic figure in the graffiti art scene, utilizes anonymity as a tool, allowing the work to speak for itself. The artist's contributions to street pop art are measured by the vibrancy of the pieces left in public view and the conversations they ignite. The influence of such work extends beyond the streets, infiltrating popular culture and challenging traditional art's status quo. Sonic Bad's Legacy in Street Pop Art Sonic Bad's 'Sidewalk Closed - Wood' is not merely a piece of reclaimed street furniture but a microcosm of street art's potential to redefine the aesthetics of urban living. This work stands as a cultural artifact, a piece of New York City's story told through the eyes of a street artist. Sonic Bad's legacy is enshrined in every color splash and line twist, a testament to the enduring allure and social commentary of street pop art and graffiti artwork. The legacy of artists like Sonic Bad is often measured by the endurance of their work in the public imagination and their ability to inspire future generations of artists. By turning a sidewalk sign into a canvas, Sonic Bad has not only altered the sign's trajectory but also contributed to the narrative of street art as a form of modern pop art. This piece will continue to be a point of reference for discussions about the interplay between public space and artistic freedom, embodying the spirit of street art that refuses to be sidelined.

Peoples Power Original Painting Mixed Media Stencil & Spray Paint on Cut Out Wood Panel by Icy & Sot Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2015 Signed Original Spray Paint & Stencil Painting on Cut-Out Wood Artwork Size 21x46 "Life Size" "American Dream is inspired by the homeless guy holding ag Starbucks cup and asking for money. There are a lot of homeless people in New York, but they are invisible in between skyscrapers. We painted him bigger than the Empire State Building so he can be noticed more." - Icy &. Sot Decoding the Visual Language of 'People's Power' The artwork titled 'People's Power' by the street artist duo Icy & Sot is a striking example of modern pop art that interweaves the raw intensity of graffiti with the engaging allure of stencil work. Created in 2015, this original piece was meticulously crafted using mixed media, predominantly stencil and spray paint, on a cut-out wood panel. The artists' choice of materials and their technique tell of their deep roots in the traditions of street pop art and graffiti artwork, where the use of spray paint is iconic, and stencils allow for sharp, repeatable imagery that can be rapidly executed in the often tricky environments of public spaces. Artistic Expression on Social Realities 'People's Power' resonates with the ethos of street art by boldly tackling socio-political themes. Icy & Sot's work often reflects a keen awareness of contemporary issues; this piece is no exception. The narrative behind the 'American Dream' — the inspiration for 'People's Power' — stems from the artist's observation of a homeless individual in New York City, cradling a Starbucks cup while begging for money. This poignant scene, set against the backdrop of towering skyscrapers, sparked the creation of an artwork that seeks to amplify the presence of the often overlooked and marginalized figures in urban landscapes. The Symbolic Imagery of 'People's Power' In 'People's Power,' the central figure is depicted as larger than life, overshadowing the iconic Empire State Building. This artistic choice elevates the subject, literally and figuratively, granting him a visibility that is usually denied in real life. The mixed crowd surrounding the central figure appears to be in solidarity, suggesting a collective uprising or a unified stand against societal issues. The vibrant colors splashed across the face of the central figure add a sense of vitality and perhaps a glimmer of hope amidst the stark black and white of the crowd. Technique and Form in Icy & Sot's Creative Process The technical prowess of Icy & Sot is evident in the stencil work's precision and the spray paint's controlled chaos. By opting for a wood panel as the substrate, the artists step away from the transient nature of street walls, allowing 'People's Power' to exist as a portable manifesto of their artistic and ideological stance. The cut-out form of the artwork disrupts the conventional rectangular canvas, giving the piece an almost sculptural presence that echoes the three-dimensional experience of encountering street art in the wild. Contextualizing 'People's Power' Within Street Pop Art 'People's Power' is more than a visually captivating piece; it is a cultural artifact that encapsulates the spirit of street pop art. Icy & Sot have successfully harnessed the expressive potential of graffiti artwork to communicate with a broad audience, transcending linguistic and cultural barriers. The artwork's accessibility is crucial to its impact, following the tradition of street art that speaks directly to the public, unfiltered by the gatekeeping norms of traditional galleries and museums. Impact and Legacy of 'People's Power' The legacy of 'People's Power' lies in its ability to confront and converse with its audience about uncomfortable truths. As with many seminal works in the street pop art genre, this piece's value is amplified by its relevance to contemporary societal discourses. Icy & Sot's commitment to addressing the uncomfortable facets of modernity is what positions 'People's Power' as not only an object of aesthetic admiration but also as a beacon of social consciousness in the realm of modern art.

Space Is Only Noise That You Can See Original Painting Mixed Media on Wood by Ellen Rutt Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "Small Victories is a collection of moments. Those times, in young adult life in particular, when seemingly insignificant actions feel like big accomplishments that only you can truly appreciate-- Eating spinach twice in one day; remembering to floss; driving home sober; getting up on time for work after only two hours of sleep. The experienced simultaneity of the mundane and the meaningful, the trivial and the triumphant.These mixed media collage works are a brief exploration of those experiences through color, texture, and pattern. Behind the often abstract geometric compositions, there is always an underlying intimacy. Through a combination of digital and physical art-making techniques, my work continues to explore the relationship between art and design, as well as the influence that computers have on both what I make and how I think." - Ellen Rutt

I have always liked "Lady With An Ermine;" the lighting on the figure, the stark background, the lettering in the upper left-hand corner, and of course, the Ermine (because what the fuck is an ermine?!)Trying to get the reference photo looking similar was a challenge, but an enjoyable one, as I never have a concrete idea of how I want a reference to look, so there tends to be a lot of trial and error. This time, I messed with it until the pose and lighting were right, then just took a few hundred pictures there, with very subtle pose and expression changes. This piece was painted for the “Three Figures” exhibition at Maxwell Alexander Gallery in June of 2014. It was a 3-man show, with Jeremy Mann, Sean Cheetham, and myself. They are two of my favorite artists, so it was a huge honor to show with them." - Aaron Nagel

Psychedelic Spiral- 01 Original Hand-Painted Multiple Spray Paint, Ink Mixed Media on Laser Cut Wood Panel ready to hang by Tavar Zawacki (Above) Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "The Psychedelic series were made in conjunction with my recent solo exhibition Remix. All of the Psychedelic series was designed with an emphasis on a sharp visual contrast. It's similar to 'Op-art' (Optical Art) which makes your eyes trip out. It's an effect that alters your perception as if you were on Psychedelic drugs. Some of the Psychedelic designs I made were featured in Remix, and some of them I created specifically for this series. This particular 'Sunset Strip' design I made with more complexity for my solo exhibition Remix. The Remix exhibition was about interchanging and swapping different cut patterns of the same design, in different colors to achieve the final piece. The Psychedelic series achieves a similar effect but in a more basic style of blocking out colors and allowing the negative space to reveal itself." - Above

Kwest was born and raised in Toronto, Canada starting his art career as a graffiti artist in the early 1990s. For over twenty years he has been active in developing a unique and complex style of lettering that he can call his own, a fluid and tight mechanical typography that appears to be born of the very structures he chose to paint them on. His primary canvas has been freight trains and he has painted well over 5000 individual works of art, relinquishing any hold on them as soon as they are completed, destined to travel the vast web of rails that crisscross North America.

Someday Baby- 04 Original Painting Mixed-Media Silkscreen Ink, Acrylic, Spray Paint & Collage on 250gsm Fine Art Paper by Greg Gossel Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. Someday Baby 04 Original Silkscreen Painting by Greg Gossel "This series is inspired by a recent trip to Kyoto, Japan. Throughout my time in Japan, I visited a number of vintage book shops and second-hand stores, collecting a variety of graphic novels, songbooks, magazines, old newspapers, and maps. Upon returning to my studio I used these materials as not only image and type references for this new body of work, but also physical collage elements incorporated into each piece. The heavily layered imagery and vibrant color palette of this hand-printed series reflects the rich tradition and lively culture I experienced during my stay in Japan." - Greg Gossel

Thriller Original Painting Acrylic, House Paint & Aerosol on Cradled Wood by Shark Toof Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2015 Signed Orignal Spray Paint Mixed Media Painting Artwork Size 24x36 The Artistic Fusion of Shark Toof's 'Thriller' "Thriller," an original painting by Shark Toof, is a dynamic foray into graffiti street art and modern pop art. Crafted in 2015, this mixed media artwork—acrylic, house paint, and aerosol on cradled wood—displays Shark Toof's signature blend of street influence and acceptable art discipline. The piece, measuring 24x36 inches, is signed by the artist, providing authenticity to this vibrant representation of his multifaceted style. Shark Toof, recognized for his powerful visual statements in the street art community, brings his graffiti roots to the forefront in this piece. His work is not confined to the traditional expectations of pop art; instead, it ventures into a realm where iconoclasm meets iconography. In "Thriller," the influence of street art is palpable, with the raw energy of graffiti translating into a structured yet spirited composition on wood. Shark Toof's approach to his work reflects a conscious decision to merge his established voice with a playful irreverence, challenging the viewer to consider the icons of our time and their mutable significance. The artwork encapsulates Shark Toof's philosophy that art should not always be taken too seriously, suggesting that there is power in subverting one's creations. This notion of 'vandalizing' one's icons is a commentary on the impermanence of fame and the fluidity of cultural symbols in our society. This blend of introspection and external commentary positions "Thriller" within a unique space in contemporary art. Shark Toof and the Do-It-Yourself Ethos of Street Art Shark Toof's preference for Detroit as a backdrop for his creative process tells of his affinity for the do-it-yourself, or DIY, ethos often associated with street art. His connection to the city, known for its prosperous industry and innovation history, mirrors his artistic journey. In Detroit, a city that has experienced grandeur and grit, Shark Toof finds a kindred spirit—a landscape that is both a canvas and a catalyst for creativity. "Thriller" embodies this DIY spirit not only in its creation but also in its presentation. Using cradled wood as a substrate is a nod to the makeshift surfaces often employed in street art, where any space or material can become the foundation for expression. Shark Toof's choice of materials—house paint and aerosol—further echoes the vernacular of street art, where the medium's immediacy matches the message's urgency. Shark Toof's "Thriller" celebrates the evolving narrative of street pop art and graffiti artwork. His work is a testament to street art's power to transcend its urban origins and find resonance in a gallery setting. Through his bold use of color, form, and medium, Shark Toof continues challenging and redefining what it means to be a street artist in the contemporary art world. His work is a dialogue with the viewer, an invitation to explore the deeper meanings behind the images we see and the icons we create.

Consistency- 5 Original Painting Spray Paint, Acrylic, Mixed Media on Cradled Wood Panel by Cope2 Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. In recent years Cope2 has been commissioned by Time Magazine, Converse, Adidas among others. His work has even crossed into the virtual realm with appearances in video games such as Mark Eckos: Getting up and Rockstar Games: Grand Theft Auto IV. During the mid-1990s Cope2 started slowly transitioning from the streets to the art scene of the galleries. At that time, street art was not as popular as it is in our days and the general public’s idea of it was still inextricably connected to ghettos, drug dealing, etc. The artist has never hidden his troubling past and avoids idealizing it, as a way to enhance his career and artistic persona. On the contrary, he mentions the following: “Oh man, there’s nothing to be proud of in hustling, but I had my first child at the age of 16, my son. So I had to make money to support him and his mother.

The Shape Of Capitalism Original Hand-Painted Multiple (HPM) on Wood Cradled Panel ready to hang by Denial Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2016 Signed & Numbered HPM Limited Edition Artwork Size 24x24 Featuring works from Denial’s nearly decade-long career, his often satirical approach works to combat mass media, consumerism, and advertising by taking familiar imagery and objects and re-contextualizing them into unique artistic statements that drive the viewer to question the worth and difference (if any) between art and advertising. Building on a long line of pop-driven work, Enjoy Denial finds Denial harnessing the negative corporate energies spewed upon society and turns them back against the established power structures that control our everyday lives. With this exhibition, Denial peels back layers of overloaded advertising and logos to shine a not-so-subtle light on the deceptions society combats daily from corporations. Denial’s art is strongly political and social since the artist takes specific positions against issues, such as capitalism, consumer culture, and advertisements. More importantly, the artist is aware of his choices and motivations: “I like to think of myself as activist pop art. How I relate with cartoons and graphics is a lot easier than I do with photo-realistic stuff" Another aspect of Denial's work is humor. His work is satirical, which, by definition, means that it uses humor as a confronting mechanism.

I hope my work would suggest only the opposite: to show the ridiculousness of it all and how we may find better solutions for the future." -Denial Denial has evolved as one the most prominent figures of contemporary pop artists, who nonetheless, continue to stay relevant and is interested in generating thought-provoking commentary. He has a long history of exploring the boundaries of appropriation, which he uses as a means of subverting the value of cultural products, imprinted in the collective memory of the Western civilization. His work, in other words, is inviting the viewer to re-imagine our dystopian society as a way of confronting it, with humor and irony as the biggest tools of the artist.

As a result, his art is as familiar, as it is disturbing because it reveals the most unsettling parts of society, the ones we are in a “denial” of. No matter its controversial history, graffiti is less and less viewed as a form of vandalism.

Denial is utilizing cultural products with the intention to make a statement against the system, which gave birth to them. As a result, he re-contextualizes them and transforms them from commercial products to his cultural legacy.
