"Every film has one. A signature prop, set, or location. Something that, in a single image, can represent the entire movie. The design team of Dan Kuhlken and Nathan Goldman, also known as DKNG, call these images “Icons,” and they are the subject of their first-ever solo show at Gallery 1988 West in Los Angeles. The show comprises pieces featuring iconic places and things from your favorite movies and TV shows. Each piece is small – 12 inches square – and is of one thing that sums up an entire movie. And, of course, each is done in DKNG’s distinctive bright, geometric yet detailed style.” -.DKNG DKNG's "POW!": A Nostalgic Ode in Silkscreen DKNG's "POW!" is a cultural emblem, a graphic encapsulation of a pop culture phenomenon rendered through the lens of modern pop art. This piece, part of the ICON series, celebrates the Batmobile from the classic Adam West "Batman" TV show. Limited to a 2014 signed and numbered edition, the 12x12 silkscreen print embodies the fusion of street art vibrancy with the meticulous craft of screen printing. Iconography and Pop Culture in Silkscreen In "POW!", DKNG studios — comprised of artists Dan Kuhlken and Nathan Goldman — employ a 4-color hand-pulled silkscreen process to immortalize the Batmobile. This piece isn't just an image of a car; it represents an era, an iconic slice of television history distilled into a single, stylized image. With their characteristic geometric precision and a palette that captures the vitality of the '60s, DKNG delivers an artwork that is both a tribute and a visual reinvention. The Batmobile is more than just a vehicle; it's a character in its own right, a symbol of justice, adventure, and the tongue-in-cheek campiness that characterized the original "Batman" series. Set against a sunset backdrop with palm trees that suggest the silhouette of Gotham (or, in a real-world sense, the streets of Los Angeles), the image portrays the Batmobile speeding off into another night of crime fighting. DKNG's ability to condense a complex narrative into a single frame is a testament to its design prowess and understanding of pop culture's visual language. Artistic Synthesis in "POW!" The artistry in "POW!" speaks volumes about DKNG's role in the pop art movement and its influence on street art aesthetics. The bold lines and dynamic composition are reminiscent of comic books, while the sophistication of the print reflects a deep appreciation for the art of silkscreen printing. The very nature of screen printing — layering colors, meticulously crafting each element — aligns with the laborious stencil work of street art, demanding precision and vision. Each piece in the ICON series, "POW!" included, acts as a standalone narrative, capturing the essence of its subject in a minimalistic yet detailed fashion. This approach is reminiscent of the philosophical underpinnings of street pop art and graffiti, where the artwork aims to connect quickly and powerfully with the viewer. DKNG manages to evoke the visual excitement of the "Batman" series and the emotional connections many fans have to the original show.  DKNG's Legacy in Contemporary Art DKNG’s work, including "POW!", is a contemporary homage to the moments that define pop culture. Through screen printing, the studio has carved a niche in the art world, blending commercial design with fine art and influencing the trajectory of pop art and street art. Their ICON series, and indeed their entire portfolio, demonstrates how classic techniques can be revitalized for the modern age, breathing new life into the imagery of our collective memory. "POW!" is a representation of DKNG's skill and a piece of nostalgia, appealing to those who are fond of the past while striking a chord with a new generation of design enthusiasts. The silkscreen print is a reminder of the enduring power of iconic imagery and the role of artists in shaping, preserving, and reinterpreting the visual language of pop culture. In essence, DKNG's "POW!" and the ICON series embody the spirit of street pop art and graffiti artwork, capturing the attention and imagination of viewers. Through their work, DKNG proves that art can transcend time, place, and medium to forge an indelible mark on both the past and present. The Batmobile, as presented by DKNG, races not just on the streets of Gotham but through the annals of pop art history, powered by the creativity and insight of two visionary artists.

Superhero Graffiti Street Pop Artwork

Superheroes have long been a popular subject in graffiti art and pop art. Both styles of art have been used to portray these iconic characters in new and exciting ways. In graffiti art, superheroes are often depicted in larger-than-life sizes, with bold lines and vibrant colors. Graffiti artists use their unique style to add a sense of energy and movement to the characters, making them seem even more powerful and heroic. Superheroes can be found in graffiti murals in cities all around the world, often serving as a symbol of hope and inspiration to those who view them. Pop art, on the other hand, takes a more playful approach to superhero imagery. Artists often use bright colors and bold graphic elements to create a sense of fun and whimsy. Superheroes are sometimes portrayed in unexpected settings or situations, such as Superman flying through a fast-food restaurant or Batman enjoying a cup of coffee. Pop art also tends to incorporate elements of commercial advertising, which can add an ironic twist to the superhero imagery. In both graffiti art and pop art, superheroes are often used as a way to explore themes of power, justice, and identity. By using these iconic characters, artists are able to tap into a universal sense of nostalgia and wonder, creating art that resonates with audiences of all ages and backgrounds. Whether painted on a city wall or printed on a canvas, superhero art has become a beloved part of contemporary culture, inspiring both artists and fans alike. DC superheroes have been a popular subject in both graffiti art and pop art. Some of the most iconic DC superheroes that have been portrayed in these styles include Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, and the Joker. In graffiti art, DC superheroes are often depicted in a larger-than-life size, with bold, bright colors and dynamic lines. Batman, for example, is often portrayed in graffiti art as a shadowy figure looming over the city, with his iconic bat symbol emblazoned on walls and buildings. Graffiti artists use their unique styles to add a sense of energy and movement to the characters, making them seem even more powerful and heroic. In pop art, DC superheroes are often portrayed in a more playful and whimsical way. Their images are often used in bright, bold colors, with a graphic design approach. The Joker, for example, might be portrayed in a series of cartoonish illustrations with bright, neon colors, or Superman might be depicted in a retro comic book style. DC superheroes are popular subjects for both graffiti artists and pop artists because of their iconic status and universal appeal. Whether portrayed in a serious or playful way, these characters have a way of capturing people's imaginations and inspiring creativity. Marvel superheroes have also been popular subjects in both graffiti art and pop art. Some of the most well-known Marvel superheroes that have been portrayed in these styles include Spider-Man, Iron Man, Captain America, and the Hulk. In graffiti art, Marvel superheroes are often depicted in a dynamic and energetic style, with bold colors, dramatic lines, and larger-than-life images. Spider-Man, for example, might be depicted in a dynamic pose, swinging through the city on his webs, while the Hulk might be portrayed as a massive, powerful figure bursting through walls or other obstacles. In pop art, Marvel superheroes are often portrayed in a more whimsical and colorful style, with a focus on bold graphics and bright colors. Iron Man, for example, might be portrayed in a series of colorful, abstract shapes and patterns, or Captain America might be depicted in a retro comic book style with bold, primary colors. Marvel superheroes are popular subjects for both graffiti artists and pop artists because of their iconic status and cultural significance. They are symbols of strength, courage, and heroism, and their images have become deeply ingrained in popular culture. Whether portrayed in a serious or playful way, Marvel superheroes are beloved by fans around the world and continue to inspire creativity and imagination.
