ME Mixed Edition Print, The Prints Vary In Color Through The Numbers of The Edition. 76 different silkscreen colors and variants in one edition. Signed and numbered, date stamped on back. The name of this print run has a double meaning to me. I decided to release it on August 5th to pay tribute to the Beastie Boys legend MCA (Adam Yauch); his birthday. Growing up, just about every day after school I would grab my basketball and head to the park or Boy's Club for some pickup games. Most of the time it was Beastie Boys on my walkman when I made the walk. They have always been a big influence on me. Also, no sleep till I feel confident with enough artwork for a solo show in Brooklyn. It may be a few years out, but I will keep trying to juggle family life, a regular job, and artwork with many late nights... -Tim Oliveira

  • Cat Goddess Archival Print by Jeff Soto

    Jeff Soto Cat Goddess Archival Print by Jeff Soto

    Cat Goddess Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 310gsm Fine Art Paper by Jeff Soto Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "The "Cat Goddess" is part of a series of paintings looking at the life cycle of living things. I would say I'm "spiritual" but not very religious. We talked about it in my family, we talked about Jesus and God, but we did not practice a religion. I'm always questioning why we're here, and what it's all about, and the answers are never clear to me. I do like to think we have spirits or energy, and I wonder where that energy goes when we pass? I feel that, if humans possess this energy, then all living things must possess it as well. The Cat Goddess is some sort of passageway or portal to somewhere else. I envision the mouth opening and taking the soul to a beautiful and safe place. Maybe Heaven?" - Jeff Soto

  • Project B Wall Street Bull Giclee Print Photo by Olek- Agata Oleksiak

    Olek- Agata Oleksiak Project B Wall Street Bull Giclee Print Photo by Olek- Agata Oleksiak

    Project B Wall Street Bull Digital C Giclee Print Photo by Olek- Agata Oleksiak Artwork Limited Edition Print on Fine Art Paper Graffiti Pop Street Artist. 2011 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 100 Artwork Photo Size 30x20 The Fusion of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork in Olek's Project B Wall Street Bull The intersection of urban landscape and artistic expression is vibrant in Olek's Project B Wall Street Bull. This giclée print, a digital C type, encapsulates the dynamic energy of street pop art and graffiti artwork. Olek, the professional moniker of Agata Oleksiak, has forged a unique path in the art world, and this work is a testament to her innovative approach. The Wall Street Bull, an iconic symbol of financial prosperity and market optimism, is reimagined through Olek's lens, cloaked in a vivid, crochet-patterned skin juxtaposing the hard, metallic surface typically associated with the sculpture. The limited edition print is not only a visual spectacle but also a piece of commentary, blending the rebellious spirit of street art with the meticulousness of craft. Measuring 30x20 inches, each print from the edition of 100 is signed and numbered by Olek herself, underscoring the authenticity and exclusivity of the piece. Created in 2011, when street art was cemented in the high art world, Olek's work captures the era's zeitgeist—where the line between the gallery and the gutter was not just blurred but often entirely erased. Olek and the Cultural Significance of the Wall Street Bull Olek's choice of the Wall Street Bull as a canvas for her crochet art is far from arbitrary. The bull, located in the heart of New York's financial district, is a powerful image of financial strength and the undying spirit of capitalism. By enveloping it in a hand-crocheted cover, Olek introduces a soft, traditionally domestic craft to the harsh public sphere of finance and global markets. This bold move reflects the artist's tendency to challenge social norms and expectations, particularly those related to gender roles and societal perceptions of art and value. The artwork's title and visual impact suggest a duality: 'Project B' could imply a secondary, alternative route to the prevailing financial narrative. At the same time, the bull itself remains an emblem of mainstream success and power. Olek's work invites one to contemplate this duality, question the status quo, and recognize art's potential to comment on and interact with social and economic structures. Olek's Artistic Technique and the Giclée Printing Process Olek's artistic process is deeply rooted in the traditional craft of crocheting, which she has elevated to a contemporary art form. Her crochet works are often large-scale, encompassing people, objects, and even entire rooms in a second skin of intricate patterns and vibrant colors. The tactile nature of her work engages the viewer on a sensory level, while the visual patterns invite a closer examination of the themes and messages interwoven within the art. The giclée printing technique used to produce the prints of Project B Wall Street Bull is a sophisticated process that ensures the highest fidelity to the original artwork. Utilizing high-resolution digital scans and archival quality inks, giclée prints are known for their vibrant color, crisp detail, and longevity. This method is particularly suited to Olek's work, as it captures the complexity and nuance of her crochet patterns, translating the texture and depth of the original piece onto fine art paper. The Impact of Olek's Work on the Art World Olek's contributions to art are significant, particularly in street pop and graffiti artwork. Her works are not confined to the walls of galleries; they interact with the urban environment, drawing attention to overlooked spaces and objects. The artist's use of public spaces as her canvas democratizes the art experience, allowing individuals from all walks of life to engage with her creations. The Project B Wall Street Bull print captures the essence of Olek's practice: it is a work of art, a sociopolitical statement, and a challenge to conventional artistic mediums and messages. Collectors and admirers of street pop and graffiti art will find in this limited edition print a piece that celebrates its evolution and critically reflects the physical and symbolic spaces it occupies. In examining Olek's Project B Wall Street Bull, one sees the convergence of artistic innovation, cultural commentary, and the evolution of street art into a recognized and respected form of creative expression. Olek's work, particularly this print, stands as a bold statement on the power of art to transform and challenge our perceptions of the familiar.

Purple

Exploring Purple's Palette in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork

Presence of Purple in Urban Art

Purple, historically a color of nobility and mystery, has permeated the urban landscape through the mediums of street pop art and graffiti artwork. Its use injects a sense of the regal and the enigmatic into the often-gritty context of the city's walls. This hue, which can range from the gentlest lavenders to the deepest violets, carries with it a versatility that is unmatched. It is as much at home in the flamboyant splashes of pop art as it is in the shadowed nuances of street art, commanding attention and provoking thought in equal measure.

Techniques and Textures: Working with Purple

When it comes to technique, purple presents unique opportunities for the artist. It can be a challenging color to work with due to its visual weight, but when handled with skill, it can add a dramatic flair or a subtle undertone to a piece. The texture of purple paint can affect its interaction with light, with glossier finishes bringing a vibrancy to the color, while matte finishes lend it a more subdued and mysterious character. In aerosol form, purple can be sprayed lightly for a misty effect or layered for richness and depth.

Cultural Significance and Emotional Depth of Purple

Purple's cultural significance is as rich as its hue. It is a color that has been used to signify power, spirituality, and creativity. In street pop art and graffiti, purple can symbolize the countercultural and the alternative, often used to represent subversive ideas or to mark the presence of the artist's unique voice. Emotionally, purple is a color that can evoke feelings of nostalgia and melancholy, as well as luxury and ambition. Its duality is its strength, enabling artists to play with a spectrum of themes from the introspective to the exuberant.

Composition and Contrast: The Utility of Purple

In terms of composition, purple's utility lies in its ability to complement or contrast a wide range of colors. It can cool down the warmth of yellows and oranges or add depth to a palette of blues and greens. In the context of street pop and graffiti art, purple often serves as a focal color, drawing in the eye and providing a counterpoint to the surrounding hues. Its placement within an artwork can guide the viewer's gaze, leading them through the visual narrative the artist has crafted.

Purple in Symbolism and Urban Expression

Purple's symbolism in urban art is multifaceted. It can stand as a symbol of the avant-garde, a beacon of innovation and creative risk-taking. In graffiti, purple can be the color of the outsider, marking territory and asserting identity in a way that other colors may not. It has the power to transform a space, to elevate it from the mundane to the extraordinary, and to infuse a sense of the otherworldly into the concrete reality of the urban environment.

Future Outlook: Purple's Evolving Role in Street Art

Looking toward the future, purple is poised to continue its evolution in the realm of street pop art and graffiti. As new pigments are developed and new techniques are embraced, the potential for purple to convey an even wider array of messages and emotions is vast. It is a color that can adapt to the changing cultural climate, reflecting the zeitgeist in its shades and tints. Whether it is used to provoke, to soothe, or to mystify, purple remains a powerful tool in the artist's palette, one that captures the complexity of the human experience against the canvas of the cityscape. In the dynamic world of street pop art and graffiti, purple stands out for its depth and complexity. It is a color that refuses to be ignored, wrapping viewers in its embrace and challenging them to explore the meanings it holds. Through the creative visions of urban artists, purple will continue to leave its mark on the streets, an enduring testament to the power of color in public art.
