"August…Maybe…TOTALLY is my favorite month of the year! What’s not to love about August?! Born + raised in California, but having spent the majority of my adult life living in Europe, August to me is almost always spent at the beach, regardless of where I am in the world.My associations with August are certainly ocean-related. Surfing, sunbathing, margaritas, friends, swimming, and just an overall relaxed attitude about anything + everything. This upcoming print, I feel captures these aforementioned charms of my favorite month." - Tavar Zawacki
"August Limited Edition" archival pigment prints are the artistic embodiment of Tavar Zawacki's, also known as ABOVE, affection for the peak summer month, reflecting a blend of his Californian roots and European experiences. This collection, signed and marked as Printer's Proof (PP) in 2019, is represented on a 290gsm Moab Rag Fine Art Paper, with each piece sizing up to an impactful 17x17 inches. The prints resonate with Zawacki's connections to August, encapsulating the essence of coastal bliss, surf culture, and the unhurried vibe that characterizes the month for him. Zawacki's work is often characterized by vibrant, bold colors and dynamic geometric shapes, engaging with the viewer through a visual language of movement and fluidity, mirroring the ebbs and flows of ocean waves and the rhythmic patterns of summer winds. The limited edition prints present an abstract design that brings to mind the sun's reflections on the ocean's surface, the streaks of blues and yellows creating a dance of light and color that evoke the joyful serenity of a day at the beach. His description of the print aligns perfectly with his vision of August: a time for leisure, outdoor activities, and creating memories with friends under the sun. As a renowned figure in modern pop art and street art, ABOVE has garnered international recognition for his distinct style that traverses the line between the street and the gallery. His "August" series is a testament to his ability to channel his street art sensibilities into fine art prints that capture the spontaneous energy of graffiti art while also offering a polished aesthetic suitable for contemporary art collectors. Through these prints, ABOVE shares his ode to summer's zenith, inviting art enthusiasts to delve into the warm and carefree ambiance that, for him, August so perfectly encapsulates.
