    Shepard Fairey- OBEY New Wave Couple AP Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    New Wave Couple AP Dance Floor Riot Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Artist Proof Hand-Pulled 1-Color Screen Print on Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Graffiti Pop Street Artwork. AP Artist Proof 2011 Signed & AP Marked Limited Edition Artwork Size 13x13 "Long before I knew about art galleries or even street art, I was excited about album cover art, if only because it was the visual counterpart to the music on the records I loved. Album covers conjured a euphoric association with the listening experience. Most of my earliest home-made tee shirts were stencils based on punk album covers… No matter how much I love art, or try to convince myself of its relevance in society, the fact remains that music is a lot cooler and way more able to reach people’s hearts and minds… but I’m a populist and I look at it this way: I may not play an instrument, but I’m gonna rock it hard as nails anyway. With my art I try to capture the same energy and spirit that makes music so powerful and democratic. REVOLUTIONS is a celebration of all the great music and accompanying art that has inspired me over the years." -Shepard Fairey Pop art, street art, and graffiti have always been mediums that offer a raw and unfiltered reflection of society, culture, and the artist's personal feelings. Among the luminaries in this realm, Shepard Fairey stands tall, his unique creations resonating with both art aficionados and the masses alike. The "New Wave Couple AP Dance Floor Riot" silkscreen print is a testament to his profound admiration for music and its intertwined relationship with visual arts. Crafted meticulously in 2011, this artist proof, hand-pulled, 1-color screen print on fine art paper, is not just an artwork but a fragment of Fairey’s soul, reverberating his passion for music. Shepard Fairey's initiation into the art world was not through the conventional means of art galleries but through album covers that acted as the visual symphony to the music he revered. Just as album art inspired emotions, memories, and an innate connection to the music, Fairey's street art endeavored to forge a similar connection with its audience. The silkscreen in question, sized at 13x13, embodies Fairey's attempt to harness the immense power and universal reach of music. His statement captures this sentiment eloquently, emphasizing how, despite art's intrinsic value, music has a superior prowess in touching human souls. His use of the term "REVOLUTIONS" is twofold, alluding to both the revolutions of a vinyl record and the socio-cultural revolutions music often incites. A deep dive into "New Wave Couple AP Dance Floor Riot" offers viewers a chance to journey through Fairey’s inspirations. The fusion of punk's rebellious nature, the invigorating energy of music, and the democratizing force of street art crystallizes in this piece. For those who see art not just as an aesthetic expression but as a pulsating representation of society and individual emotion, this silkscreen print is both a tribute and an inspiration. Through such creations, Shepard Fairey champions the ethos that one needn't play an instrument to rock the world – sometimes, a canvas and a vision are all it takes.

    Mr Brainwash- Thierry Guetta Love Catcher Pink Silkscreen Print by Mr Brainwash- Thierry Guetta

    Love Catcher Pink Silkscreen Print by Mr Brainwash- Thierry Guetta Hand-Pulled 6-Color on Hand Deckled Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. 2023 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 75 Artwork Size 22x22 Silkscreen Print by Mr Brainwash- Thierry Guetta Mr. Brainwash, whose real name is Thierry Guetta, is a French-born, Los Angeles-based street artist and filmmaker. He was born on November 11, 1966, in Garges-lès-Gonesse, France. Mr. Brainwash came to prominence through the 2010 Oscar-nominated documentary "Exit Through the Gift Shop", which was directed by the renowned British street artist Banksy. Initially, Guetta began as a videographer who was interested in street art and decided to document the phenomenon. This endeavor led him to meet and film numerous street artists, including Shepard Fairey and Banksy. However, in a surprising twist, Banksy turned the camera on Guetta, encouraging him to become an artist himself. The result was Mr. Brainwash, a pop artist known for his large-scale productions and eclectic style, drawing heavily from pop culture references and the work of other street artists. His work often blends elements of pop art with the raw, edgy aesthetics of street art. Since his emergence, Mr. Brainwash has held numerous exhibitions and his work has gained significant attention in the art world, both for its bold, distinctive style and for the controversy surrounding his sudden rise to fame. He is known for his energetic and often humorous installations, sculptures, and stenciled artworks. Despite criticism from some quarters who view his work as derivative, Mr. Brainwash has continued to maintain a successful career in the contemporary art scene. Mother's Day is a celebration that honors mothers and motherhood, maternal bonds, and the influence of mothers in society. It is celebrated on various days in many parts of the world, most commonly in the months of March or May. The modern American holiday of Mother's Day was first celebrated in 1908, when Anna Jarvis held a memorial for her mother at St Andrew's Methodist Church in Grafton, West Virginia. Anna Jarvis's mother, Ann Jarvis, had been a peace activist who cared for wounded soldiers on both sides of the American Civil War, and created Mother's Day Work Clubs to address public health issues. Anna Jarvis wanted to honor her mother by continuing the work she started and to set aside a day to honor all mothers because she believed that they were "the person who has done more for you than anyone in the world". In 1914, Woodrow Wilson signed a proclamation designating Mother's Day, held on the second Sunday in May, as a national holiday to honor mothers. Since then, Mother's Day has become a day that children celebrate their mothers with cards, gifts, and activities. The holiday has been adopted by other countries and it's celebrated in different ways worldwide. For example, in the United Kingdom, it is traditionally known as Mothering Sunday and it's celebrated on the fourth Sunday of Lent. In Mexico, it's always celebrated on May 10th, regardless of the day of the week. It's important to note that Mother's Day can bring different feelings for different people. While it's a joyous occasion for many, it can be a difficult day for those who have lost their mothers or who have strained relationships with them. It's also a day to honor and remember mothers who have passed away.

In "Right PP," these scripts are rendered with a precision that screen printing affords, allowing Bojorquez to explore the subtleties of light and shadow, depth and dimension.

This conversation continues to gain relevance as street pop art and graffiti artwork find their way into more traditional art venues and the hearts of a broader public. Chaz Bojorquez's Artistic Legacy Chaz Bojorquez's artistic legacy is cemented not only by his murals and public works but also by his prints, which allow his art to reach a wider audience.

  • The Tempest Silkscreen Print by Cleon Peterson

    Cleon Peterson The Tempest Silkscreen Print by Cleon Peterson

    The Tempest Silkscreen Print by Cleon Peterson Hand-Pulled 1-Color on 370gsm Legion Sirio Ultrablack Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork. 2021 Signed by Cleon Peterson & Numbered Limited Edition of 30 Artwork Size 24x30 Silkscreen Print Published by Louis Buhl & Co. Signed, Dated, And Numbered In Pencil Along Lower Edge. The Provocative Essence of The Tempest in Street Pop Art In the tapestry of street pop art, few works stir the pot of social commentary as vigorously as Cleon Peterson's "The Tempest." This hand-pulled silkscreen print, manifested on the decadent 370gsm Legion Sirio Ultrablack fine art paper, is a limited edition creation that delves deep into the dissonance of human nature and societal conflict. Completed in 2021, this piece is part of a limited series, with only 30 pieces decorated with Peterson's signature and a unique number denoting its place in this exclusive release. With dimensions of 24x30 inches, "The Tempest" commands presence, drawing the eye and the mind into a discourse that is quintessential to the ethos of street pop art and graffiti artwork. Peterson's work is not for the faint of heart. It's a visual punch, unapologetic and blunt in its depiction of the darker facets of humanity. "The Tempest" is a testament to this unabashed bravery, presenting a dichotomy of black and white that goes beyond color, delving into the dualities of power and subjugation, order and chaos. The starkness of the monochrome palette is a deliberate choice, reflective of the clear-cut division in the societal structures that Peterson often critiques through his art. The absence of color is a strategic silence, allowing the narrative of domination and resistance to resonate louder with its audience. Street Pop Art and Its Dialogues on the Concrete Canvas Street pop art, an umbrella under which "The Tempest" finds a comfortable abode, is not merely an artistic expression but a conversation carved on the concrete canvas of public spaces. Peterson takes this dialogue to the exclusivity of fine art paper, bringing the rawness of the streets into the galleries and collections of art lovers. This transition is not just a physical one; it's a migration of ideas, a movement that brings the unrefined and often uncomfortable truths of graffiti artwork into a space that commands contemplation and discussion. Peterson's "The Tempest" allure is magnified by its rarity. In the art collection world, a piece's value is often tied to its scarcity. A limited edition of 30 ensures that only a few can claim ownership of this tangible slice of Peterson's vision. The meticulous process of hand-pulling each print and the high-quality paper choice elevate "The Tempest" from mere street art replication to a collectible piece of cultural significance. The collaboration with Louis Buhl & Co. for publication furthers this narrative, lending an air of prestige and ensuring the legacy of the artwork within the echelons of high art. Cleon Peterson's Challenge to the Viewer "The Tempest" is a challenge laid bare by Cleon Peterson. It's a gauntlet thrown at the feet of society, asking the viewer not just to observe but to engage with the underlying themes of strife and control. The dialogue initiated by this piece is a hallmark of street pop art and graffiti artwork, which have long been mediums for social and political discourse. Peterson's commitment to these themes is unwavering, and his ability to convey them through the silkscreen medium is a testament to his artist skill and understanding of his role as a provocateur in the art world. In conclusion, Cleon Peterson's "The Tempest" is a resonant piece that captures the essence of street pop art and graffiti artwork through its thematic boldness and visual impact. The hand-pulled silkscreen on fine art paper, limited to a select thirty prints, transcends the boundaries of traditional street art to enter the realm of fine art collection while still retaining the raw, unfiltered dialogue that defines the genre. It is a piece that stands as a bridge between the ephemeral nature of graffiti and the lasting impact of fine art, a bridge that Peterson navigates with deft skill and audacious honesty.

Stencil FIne Art Graffiti Street Pop Artwork

Emergence and Influence of Silkscreen in Street Pop Art and Graffiti

Silkscreen printing is synonymous with vibrant versatility and has profoundly influenced street pop art and graffiti artwork. This method, also known as screen printing, involves pushing ink through a mesh screen onto a substrate, except in areas made impermeable to the ink by a blocking stencil. Its origins trace back to China during the Song Dynasty, but in the 20th century, silkscreen found its foothold in the art world. The technique gained prominence with the rise of the pop art movement, with artists like Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein using it to create their iconic works. These artists utilized silkscreen to replicate and manipulate images from popular culture, a practice that resonated powerfully within the burgeoning street art scene. In the context of street pop art and graffiti artwork, silkscreen printing has been embraced for its ability to efficiently reproduce images, allowing artists to share their messages widely and quickly. The essence of street art and graffiti lies in their accessibility and often transient nature. Using silkscreen techniques, street artists can produce multiple copies of their work, extending their reach beyond the physical limitations of street walls and into galleries, exhibitions, and private collections. This has played a critical role in the democratization of art, making it accessible and relatable to a broader audience. Silkscreen printing allows for the layering of colors and textures, offering street artists a unique way to add depth and complexity to their work.

Techniques and Evolution in Street Art

The use of silkscreen in street pop art and graffiti has evolved over the years, with artists continually experimenting with new methods and materials. This evolution has led to a diverse range of styles and techniques within the genre. Some artists combine silkscreen with other mediums like spray paint or hand-drawn elements, combining traditional and contemporary methods. The flexibility of silkscreen printing also enables artists to play with scale, creating everything from small prints to large murals. This versatility has made it an essential tool in the street artist's repertoire, bridging the illicit thrill of graffiti and the more accepted domain of fine art. The cultural impact of silkscreen fine art prints in street pop art and graffiti is profound. These artworks often serve as social commentary, reflecting the artist's perspective on politics, societal norms, or consumer culture. The ability of silkscreen prints to be mass-produced has also played a crucial role in disseminating these messages, allowing them to reach and engage a wider audience. This art form has challenged traditional perceptions of fine art and given marginalized communities and viewpoints a voice. The recognition and commercial success of these prints have further validated street art as a legitimate and vital artistic expression. 

Future Trajectories in Artistic Expression

Looking ahead, the future of silkscreen in street pop art and graffiti artwork appears vibrant and dynamic. The intersection of digital technology with traditional silkscreen techniques opens new frontiers for artistic expression. Artists are now exploring digital silkscreen printing, combining the precision of digital design with the tactile quality of screen printing. This hybrid approach expands street artists' creative possibilities, allowing them to experiment with more complex and detailed imagery. As the boundaries between street art, pop art, and fine art continue to blur, silkscreen printing remains a vital tool, enabling artists to push the limits of creativity and expression. Silkscreen fine art prints have significantly impacted the development and evolution of street pop art and graffiti. This medium has provided artists with a powerful means to reproduce and disseminate their work, bridging the gap between street art's ephemeral nature and fine art's enduring quality. As the art world continues to evolve, the role of silkscreen in street art and graffiti will undoubtedly remain pivotal, driving innovation and artistic exploration in the years to come.
