Slippery Sundae Artwork Limited Edition Giclee & 1-Color Silkscreen Print on Bright Moab Entrada Fine Art Paper by Modern Artist Buff Monster.
2009 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 25 Artwork Size 32x32
The "Slippery Sundae" artwork by Buff Monster stands as a striking example of contemporary pop art, merging street art sensibilities with the acceptable art practice of silkscreen printing. Completed in 2009, this limited edition piece, restricted to 25 signed and numbered prints, is an exemplary model of Buff Monster's iconic style. Sized at 32x32 inches, the artwork offers a generous canvas for the artist's playful yet subversive vision. Buff Monster's work is renowned for its vibrant use of color and whimsical characters, often inspired by the melting landscapes of ice creams and the imagined worlds they inhabit. In "Slippery Sundae," the artist employs a one-color silkscreen process on Bright Moab Entrada Fine Art Paper, which allows for a high level of detail and a rich, tactile texture. This particular paper is chosen for its ability to capture the vividness of the pink hues and the graphic contrast of the grayscale elements, which are a signature feature in Buff Monster's art. Giclée printing also ensures that each piece is reproduced with precision, capturing every nuance of the original work. This artwork reflects Buff Monster's fascination with the juxtaposition of the bright and the gloomy, the sweet and the unsettling. It's a theme that resonates throughout his oeuvre, manifesting in the bubblegum-pink tsunami engulfing the cheerfully oblivious characters. With this piece, Buff Monster makes a statement about indulgence and the often-overlooked consequences of excess, packaged in a deceptively cute and digestible visual format. "Slippery Sundae" is not only a captivating addition to any pop art collection but also a reflection of the permeating influence of street art within modern visual culture. Through this limited edition print, Buff Monster bridges his street art beginnings with the exclusivity of fine art, allowing art collectors and enthusiasts to own a piece of this crossover. The artwork embodies the artist's journey through the art world – from the ephemeral nature of street graffiti to the lasting impact of fine art prints.
