Tavar Zawacki- Above Psychedelic Fusion 03 HPM Spray Paint Wood Print by Tavar Zawacki- Above
Psychedelic Fusion- 03 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

Created for Super Bowl LIV, this football results from a unique collaboration between Wynwood Walls, Wilson, and the NFL, featuring the distinctive touch of renowned modern street and pop graffiti artist Tavar Zawacki, also known as Above. This collaboration represents a vibrant celebration of Miami's iconic style and rich, colorful culture, with a 2019 edition limited to only 100 pieces. Each football is a playable item, a sports sculpture, and a collector's item symbolizing the cross-pollination of sports and art in contemporary culture. The Wynwood Walls, known for its dynamic street art and murals, brought its artistic vision to sports, transforming the classic football into a canvas for artistic expression. In doing so, the football transcends its traditional role and becomes a statement piece reflecting Miami's pulsating energy. Wilson, a staple name in sports, and the NFL, the governing body of American football, demonstrate their recognition of the global spectacle that the sport has become, reaching beyond American borders and resonating with a worldwide audience. Global Influence on American Football Through Art The artists involved in creating the Wynwood x Wilson SBLIV Footballs were selected from around the world, ensuring a diverse array of styles and perspectives contributing to American football's global narrative. Tavar Zawacki's work on this football reflects his signature style, characterized by bright colors, bold lines, and geometric patterns, which align perfectly with the energy and vibrancy of Miami — a city known for its rich tapestry of cultures and artistic vitality. The choice of Zawacki, an artist who has significantly impacted the street art scene, reinforces the message that American football is not only a sport but also a part of the cultural and artistic dialogue that transcends geographical boundaries. This piece of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork exemplifies how sports can serve as a conduit for cultural exchange, with American football as a canvas for international artistic talent. The artwork on the football encapsulates the spirit of the city it honors, the grandeur of the event it celebrates, and the universal language of art it speaks. It stands as a testament to the power of collaboration across different domains — sports, art, and culture — and highlights how art can add depth and dimension to the world of sports. Artistic Legacy and Collectibility of the Wynwood x Wilson SBLIV Football The collectibility of the Wynwood x Wilson SBLIV Football stems from its limited edition status, the artist's renown, and its significance as a piece of Super Bowl memorabilia. The Super Bowl, an event that garners international viewership, is the perfect occasion to showcase this melding of sport and art, offering a fresh narrative to an event steeped in tradition. The footballs serve as a physical reminder that the Super Bowl is not only a championship game but also a cultural phenomenon encompassing various forms of expression, including art. The collaboration has set a precedent for how sporting events can incorporate art to enhance their cultural impact. It suggests a future where limited edition sports memorabilia created by artists becomes a norm, adding a layer of prestige and meaning to the items that fans and collectors cherish. The Wynwood x Wilson SBLIV Football by Tavar Zawacki is an artifact of a time when sport and art converged to celebrate a city's cultural heritage and the universal appeal of a game. It is a sports sculpture that captures the essence of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork, marking a momentous occasion in sports and art.

Cut the Record (Nas), 2014 Mixed media on laser cut wood panel with industrial resin 22 inches (55.9 cm) diameter Ed. 1/1 Signed to reverse. "The 'Cut The Record' series was made solely for this release and was part of my most recent exhibition Remix. This was a very personal series for me, as I selected 10 of my favorite musicians to portray and Remix. All of the 10 musicians I selected to make for this series are personal favorites of mine. Music I actually listen to on a day-to-day basis. For my exhibition, I kinda tweaked the meaning of Remix to fit the swapping and sampling of different, but similar pieces of woodcuts I had made on the pieces. With the 10 musicians, I selected for the 'Cut The Record' series each has either had their music remixed and or remixed music themselves. Since Illmatic Album in 1994, I don’t think a week has gone by since I’ve listened to that album. One of my favorite albums." - Above
