  • Don’t Be a MFR AP Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Shepard Fairey- OBEY Don’t Be a MFR AP Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Don't Be a MFR AP Artist Proof Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled 5-Color on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. AP Artist Proof 2015 Signed by Shepard Fairey- OBEY & Numbered Limited Edition of 550 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print. Don't Be A Mother Fucker. Don't Be A MOTHER#*X!! R Respect & Justice. The Provocative Appeal of 'Don't Be a MFR' by Shepard Fairey Shepard Fairey's 'Don't Be a MFR AP' is a bold exemplar in street pop art and graffiti artwork. Fairey, an American artist and provocateur born on February 15, 1970, continues to push the boundaries of art and activism. This particular work, part of an artist-proof (AP) series released in 2015, is characteristic of Fairey's approach to engaging with cultural and societal themes through his art. The hand-pulled 5-color silkscreen print on cream speckle tone paper echoes Fairey's distinctive aesthetic while carrying a strong message of respect and justice. Symbolism and Messaging in 'Don't Be a MFR' The artwork's title, 'Don't Be a MFR,' captures the eye with its intentional censoring, a tactic that allows for a broad interpretation and stirs curiosity. Within the limited edition series of 550, each piece sized at 18x24 inches, Fairey's work resonates with the power of command and the gravity of a public service announcement. The print is decorated with the words' Respect & Justice,' a direct call to action central to much of Fairey's oeuvre. Fairey employs symbols like the skull enveloped in a flower, a duality that speaks to the juxtaposition of life and death, growth and decay, reinforcing the message of the consequences of one's actions. The overall design is reminiscent of emblems and seals, often associated with authority and institutions, which Fairey repurposes to deliver his socio-political commentary. The choice of bold, angular graphics, in conjunction with the roundness of the emblematic seal, displays the tension between disruption and order, a recurrent theme in street pop art. Impact on Street Pop Art and Cultural Discourse The 'Don't Be a MFR' series exemplifies the potential of street pop art to serve as a medium for societal reflection and critique. The use of a public vernacular and the direct address to the viewer exemplify Fairey's commitment to making art accessible and demanding attention. Each print in the series, bearing Fairey's signature, is a testament to the belief that art should not shy away from controversy but rather confront and challenge the viewer. This piece, in particular, adds to the rich tapestry of graffiti artwork that has historically been used to communicate messages to a broad audience, often bypassing traditional media and institutional spaces. Fairey's work is a modern-day manifestation of this tradition, utilizing the urban canvas to prompt a public introspection on issues of respect and justice. The artwork serves not just as a visual spectacle but as a catalyst for conversation and, ideally, for action. Shepard Fairey and the Continuum of Artistic Activism Shepard Fairey's 'Don't Be a MFR' continues the artist's enduring legacy in art and activism. Residing in Los Angeles, California, Fairey remains a significant influence, harnessing the vibrancy of street pop art to voice his dissent and mobilize public sentiment. His work is anchored in the belief that art is a powerful change agent capable of inspiring individuals to think critically about the world around them. This particular silkscreen print carries the OBEY logo, an integral aspect of Fairey's brand, which doubles as a command and a critique of authoritarian tendencies. The artwork's appeal lies in its ability to be aggressive and reflective at once, pushing observers to consider their role in maintaining or disrupting social justice. Fairey's dedication to the intersection of art and societal issues solidifies his position as an artist and a significant cultural instigator in contemporary times.

    Denial- Daniel Bombardier What Drones? HPM Spray Paint Wood Stencil by Denial- Daniel Bombardier

    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.

  • Sale -15% Happiness Is Expensive Grey Pink HPM Silkscreen Print by Prefab77

    Prefab77 Happiness Is Expensive Grey Pink HPM Silkscreen Print by Prefab77

    Happiness Is Expensive- Grey & Pink Limited Edition Hand-Embellished 6-Color Screen Prints on 300gsm Fabrino Rosapina Paper by Prefab77 Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. "Happiness is Expensive is part of a theme we are developing, keeping our hard, fast-edged style and mixing with portraiture. We want to explore the iconography and the power of the female form in traditional art, music, and fashion. Throughout the ages, portraits are used to reflect the subject but also the time period that the subject inhabits, with secret messages, religious affiliations, and iconography woven into the piece. We want to take this forward and use the main figurative element to reflect these messages into a powerful piece. We want to bridge the gap between street art and traditional art by using a mixture of Acrylic, Spraypaint, stencils, wheat pastes and various screen print inks in our work layering these into luxurious prints and originals." - Prefab77 "Happiness Is Expensive - Grey & Pink" is a captivating limited edition screen print by Prefab77, a renowned artist in graffiti street art and modern pop art. This hand-embellished artwork, rendered on 300gsm Fabriano Rosapina paper, is a testament to Prefab77's commitment to melding the raw energy of street art with the finesse of traditional portraiture. The piece showcases a complex interplay of six-color screen prints, each layer meticulously applied to construct a composite rich in texture and depth. Prefab77's intention to reflect the iconography and power of the female form is realized through the central figure. This portrayal channels the essence of femininity as observed in historical art, music, and fashion. The artwork serves as a contemporary canvas where the past and present converge, with the female subject embodying not just her narrative but also the zeitgeist of our era. Through "Happiness Is Expensive - Grey & Pink," Prefab77 delves into the tradition of portraiture, reimagining it with a modern twist. The work is interwoven with subtle motifs and symbols that echo religious and societal affiliations, similar to the hidden messages found in classic art. Yet, the artist propels these elements into the present, infusing the piece with the techniques of street art such as acrylics, spray paint, stencils, and wheat paste. This particular artwork explores luxury within prints and original creations, blurring the lines between accessible street art and the exclusivity of fine art. The limited edition nature of "Happiness Is Expensive - Grey & Pink," marked by the artist's hand, adds to its desirability and value, making it a cherished piece for collectors and enthusiasts of street pop art and graffiti artwork.

  • Snoopy Bad Inc Original Mixed Media Street Sign Painting by Sonic Bad

    Sonic Bad Snoopy Bad Inc Original Mixed Media Street Sign Painting by Sonic Bad

    Snoopy Bad INC is an original mixed-media graffiti artist—modern pop art on real metal street signs Sonic Bad. 2015 Signed Original Spray Paint Mixed Media on Tin Metal Security Sign. Sonic BAD INC Snoopy Bad INC Artwork Size 14x10 Depicting Peanuts Red Barron Snoopy & Woodstock Bomber Stylistic Graffiti Holding Pistol Gun with Security Camera and Snowman. Sonic Bad's Unique Blend of Iconography: Snoopy Bad INC Sonic Bad's "Snoopy Bad INC" is a striking work that marries the notion of classic comic characters with the gritty edge of street art, showcasing the artist's skill in blending pop culture references with a streetwise aesthetic. The 2015 piece is a mixed media work on tin metal, utilizing spray paint to bring vibrant life to an otherwise mundane security sign. Measuring 14x10 inches, this signed original work presents a version of the beloved Peanuts characters, Snoopy and Woodstock, reimagined as rebellious icons in a stylistic graffiti interpretation. Interpreting Street Narratives through Pop Culture Lenses Sonic Bad, an artist renowned for pushing the boundaries of street pop art, infuses "Snoopy Bad INC" with layers of meaning. By depicting the Red Baron Snoopy and a bomber, Woodstock holding a pistol gun, juxtaposed with a security camera and a snowman, the artwork comments on the surveillance state and the loss of innocence in contemporary society. The playful imagery contrasts with the underlying message about security, surveillance, and the militarization of everyday life. The transformation of familiar, comforting figures into agents of anarchy or resistance is a common theme in modern pop art and graffiti, where the recontextualization of well-known images challenges viewers' perceptions and expectations. Sonic Bad's portrayal invites reflection on how innocence and playfulness can be corrupted by societal control and violence. Crafting Commentary on Canvas and Metal The choice of a metal street sign as the canvas for "Snoopy Bad INC" is particularly resonant, suggesting a subversion of authority and a claim to the public space typically dictated by such signs. Sonic Bad's adaptation of the sign, a symbol designed to regulate and warn, into a piece of art underscores a reclaiming of agency, turning a tool of control into a medium for free expression. The use of mixed media in "Snoopy Bad INC" highlights Sonic Bad's versatility as an artist. Spray paint, a staple in graffiti art, brings an urban feel to the work. At the same time, incorporating other media adds texture and depth, creating a piece that is visually arresting and thought-provoking. The artwork stands as a testament to the power of street art to transform everyday objects and icons into profound statements. Sonic Bad's Artistic Evolution and Impact "Snoopy Bad INC" exemplifies Sonic Bad's evolution as an artist and his impact on street pop art and graffiti. His ability to weave together elements of popular culture, street art stylings, and social commentary places him among the leading figures in the genre, capable of sparking conversation and challenging societal norms. The piece is a vibrant addition to the discourse of street art, reflecting the genre's capacity to adapt and evolve. Sonic Bad's work, through pieces like "Snoopy Bad INC," continues to influence and inspire, ensuring the relevance and vitality of street pop art in a changing cultural landscape. The legacy of such art lies in its capacity to engage, provoke, and endure, much like the artist behind the creation.

    Mala Influencia- Printer's Select 2 Limited Edition Hand-Embellished 2-Color Screen Print on 290gsm Coventry Rag Paper by Ciler Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2015 SIgned & Numbered HPM Limited Edition Hand Embellished Edition of 2 Artwork Size 16x20 "This piece is basically trying to talk about the bad influence families can generate on us. Most of my work is developed in that way, a social-critique-like way, a joke about the life we live nowadays.I found the photograph in a LIFE magazine from the '70s, and I did an intervention over it with black ink and acrylic paint. For the serigraphy version, the image was scanned and retouched in order to make the print. In Mexico, the majority of crooks and cartel members are brought up by the predeceasing generations. I thought it was important to touch that subject in my show, and not just talk about the folkloric side of my country, because we live deadly chaos so vivid, we can easily catch a deceased body waking up in your corner." - Ciler

I'm always trying new ideas out that turn into more ideas. In this painting, I wanted to have two drastically different fill-in styles. So the top half is a classic fill of mine and in the bottom half, I play with the idea of different color chrome effects. It was a fun piece to paint in the heart of San Francisco.

"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

    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.

PP Printers Proof Signed & Marked PP Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x18 Shell Archival Print by Cey Adams "The whole idea behind my Trusted Brands series was that I wanted to revisit many of the iconic logos of my youth to reconnect to familiar things. These pieces are mostly made of handmade fiber papers from India and Nepal. I wanted to do something rivaling my friends who used spray paint and connected with my graffiti roots, but I didn't want to do what everybody else did. I thought it would be interesting to challenge myself to use a medium I have never used before, and collage spoke to me." - Cey Adams. Cey Adams' "Shell" - A Convergence of Branding and Art Cey Adams, a foundational figure in graffiti and street pop art, presents a compelling piece in his "Shell PP Printers Proof Limited Edition." This work is part of Adams' "Trusted Brands" series, where he revisits the emblematic logos that marked his youth. The print, an 18x18 archival pigment on fine art paper, showcases his exploration into collage, setting him apart from his contemporaries who favored spray paint. This piece is a Printer's Proof, signed and marked by Adams, adding a layer of exclusivity and collectibility. Adams' choice to use handmade fiber papers from India and Nepal lends an organic texture that contrasts with the commercial sharpness of the Shell logo. His work is a nod to nostalgia and a dialogue between past and present, consumerism and craftsmanship. The "Shell" piece stands out as a testament to Adams' ability to innovate within his graffiti roots while pushing the boundaries of his artistic expression. In Adams' own words, his college journey was challenging to escape the graffiti norm. His "Trusted Brands" series, including the "Shell" print, reflects this personal and artistic quest to connect with familiar symbols uniquely, embodying the essence of modern pop art within the urban landscape.

I made these and kept them back until the time was right. As my first print release in the USA and as an introduction to my work, it seemed like the perfect time to put them out. Angels are a reoccurring motif for me and most of my pictures draw from a bitter-sweet theme. So the image of a fallen angel is a powerfully symbolic way to portray this.

Custom Framed 2015 Signed Limited HPM Edition of 40 Artwork Size 28x22 "I originally painted a version of this in Wynwood at Art Basel this year (2015). Like a lot of working artists I put the entire trip on my credit card and had to deal with it after I got the "bill." It's basically a statement on living day to day and trying to figure it all out. Like how to make art and travel and live with some balance to it all.I have an affinity, as many people do to superheroes. I really think they are a beautiful sentiment to a very messed up world/existence." - 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.

"I did an exhibition last year that opened on Valentine's Day which was called ‘One Red Rose Forever’. It’s an old Sailor Jerry tattoo phrase. I always like to revisit and re-imagine my own personal archive of imagery in new ways. This image is a reworking of a much larger piece I painted a couple of years back. I'm always thinking, if my paintings were songs what would they sound like? Often I'll be listening to a song and it'll give me an idea for a painting. All it takes is a phrase, or sometimes I'll come up with a particular profound emotion and try to depict it as an image in the same way a musician would in a song." - Copyright

  • I Will Love You Until The End HPM Stencil Wood Print by Denial- Daniel Bombardier

    Denial- Daniel Bombardier I Will Love You Until The End HPM Stencil Wood Print by Denial- Daniel Bombardier

    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.

    Face Invader- Creep Mode Original Hand-Painted Multiple (HPM) on Wood Cradled Panel ready to hang by Bask Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. “I wanted to do something special for the run that was going to coincide with the show. So the idea came to mind to not just offer a hand embellished print, but actually make a series of pieces in sets that were all hand-painted. No stencils or silkscreens, I wanted to offer actually painted pieces that are affordable to anyone who wants one. But as excited as I was about this idea, I then had to figure out how to make this happen within a reasonable time frame. Not to mention, coming up with 10 images that I would be able to duplicate almost identically 20 times over. Then the idea of bringing back some of the faces that have appeared in past works. Characters that Detroit inspired me to create. I have to add that this has been one of the most labor-intensive projects I've taken on. There are over 500 hours in these between myself and my assistant. Each panel was painstaking worked over.” - BASK

The print features a stylized image of a woman's face, with the words "WE OWN THE FUTURE" in bold letters across the top. The woman in the image is wearing a hat and holding a flame with angel wings.

It speaks to Fairey's belief in the power of grassroots activism and the ability of individuals to effect change through their actions.

The print measures 18 x 24 inches and is printed on aluminum, giving it a sleek and modern look.

Signed & Numbered Archival Pigment Print on 310gsm on Bright White Fine Art Paper Size: 16 x 24 Inches Release: August 28, 2015 Run of: 50 "This piece was created very late in 2013 and it has many layers. I first processed down panels to get the tiled effect I desired. Then I started to lay down layer of texture which eventually ended with the portrait seen. It was originally made for an event I did at the Saint Petersburg Museum of Art. The show paired 5 artists with 5 locally celebrated chefs to collaborate. The chef was to make a dish inspired by the work. The piece was also made in as part of an on going series of portrait works painted mostly in halftones. I like working with weather old wood for the unique texture it provides. With this piece I didn't want to use a single piece of wood but several to achieve a wood tile look much like the facade of an abandoned building. People should buy this piece because it hopefully speaks to them in a similar way it spoke to me when I made it. People should also buy the print because prints from 1xRUN are simply put, fucking awesome!" - Bask

Red Color Graffiti Street Pop Artwork

Red: A Bold Statement in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork

Red in the Spectrum of Street Art Expression

Red, often seen as the most assertive and dynamic of all colors, casts its passionate hue across the expansive canvas of street pop art and graffiti artwork. With its bold nature, red is not just a color—it's a declaration, a visual exclamation that demands attention and conveys intensity. Its application in the urban art scene is diverse, from the deepest burgundies to the brightest scarlets, each shade imbued with its unique energy and symbolism.

Techniques and Textures: Red's Artistic Flexibility

Artistically, red's versatility is found in its ability to stand alone and its power to accentuate when paired with other colors. The techniques employed by street artists to apply red vary greatly, from aerosol sprays that offer a misty overlay to bold brush strokes that provide texture and depth. Red in street pop art is not merely a visual tool; it's a tactile experience. The texture of red paint can range from glossy finishes that reflect the city's lights to matte surfaces that absorb and soften the intensity of the hue, each technique chosen to convey a specific message or feeling.

Cultural Resonance of Red in Urban Imagery

Culturally, red has a potent resonance, often associated with powerful emotions and ideas such as love, anger, danger, and strength. Street pop art and graffiti leverage these associations to deliver impactful artwork that can resonate universally. The color red is frequently utilized to draw the viewer's focus to critical elements of a piece, highlighting areas the artist deems most significant or using the color's signal-like quality to convey cautionary messages and urgent statements.

Compositional Strategies with Red in Art

Regarding composition, red's role in street pop and graffiti artwork is multifaceted. It can starkly contrast cooler hues, creating a visual disruption that can energize or unsettle the viewer. Conversely, when red is set against warmer tones, it can evoke feelings of warmth and comfort. The strategic placement of red within a piece can alter the viewer's perception of space, with deeper reds receding in the visual field and brighter reds advancing, a technique artists use to create movement and depth.

Symbolic Use of Red in Street Pop Art and Graffiti

Symbolically, red is laden with meaning in the context of street pop art and graffiti. It's a color that signifies everything from political affiliations to personal identity. In the urban landscape, where art serves as a voice for the voiceless, red is often the color of choice for expressing defiance and resilience. Its application is deliberate, with artists selecting the shade of red that best communicates the spirit of their message.

Evolution of Red in Urban Artistic Practice

As we consider the evolution of color used in street art, red's significance only seems to amplify. Its historical use in political and protest art continues to influence contemporary artists, who see red as a means of connecting with a rich legacy of visual activism. With advances in paint technology and application methods, the vibrancy and longevity of red in street art have increased, allowing it to maintain its potency and message over time, even in the face of environmental challenges. Red's place in street pop art and graffiti is undeniable. It is a color that can elevate a piece from mere visual noise to a poignant statement. Its shades can signify many themes and messages, from the urgency of revolution to the pulse of love that beats through city streets. As an element of the urban visual lexicon, red is as essential as the very walls it adorns, a color that will continue to be used to captivate, communicate, and challenge viewers around the world.
