We have two great original art pieces available by Italian artist @doped_out_m coming up in our auction on Thursday April 7th at 10am PST. Only at www.ArtMeetsStreet.com. We hope to see you there! About Dopedout M: Dopedout M (known on the walls as Moth D.o.c) was born in Rome in 1988 in a suburban area (Nomentana), where he was fascinated by the underground and graffiti hiphop scene. In the 2000s, precisely in 2005, he decided to be part of it and began writing illegally on the walls and public transport of all Rome.The pinnacle of the artist's fame came in 2009/2010 in which the artist literally devastated the capital (and also other Italian cities) from north to south. After several complaints, he continued his activity, dedicating himself in parallel to paintings on canvas.Moth is still active and productive both on the streets and in his studio on canvas, et al. #streetart #italianartist #urbanart #thepinkpanther #dopedout_m #italy #artcollector #artmeetsstreet #artwork #artgallery #artcurator #artcollection #artdealer (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cb2xiYfLA_Q/?utm_medium=tumblr

Only 11 more days to register and pre-bid for our newest online auction taking place on April 7th, 2022. The auction will feature works by one of our most popular artists, @jeffreygillette666. Place your bids at www.ArtMeetsStreet.com About this Artwork: Artist: Jeff Gillette Title: Art in Action - Blek Le Rat I Type: Archival Pigment Print on 290gsm Moab Entrada Fine Art Paper. Size: 16 x 20 Inches Run of: 100. Sold Out. This RUN comes signed & numbered by Jeff Gillette and with a Certificate of Authenticity. ARTIST STATEMENT "I am from the suburbs of Detroit, Michigan. In the late 1980s I was a Peace Corps volunteer in Nepal for two years. During this two-year stint, I visited every major city in India, finding myself exploring the huge slums found there. On my return to home, I moved from the Mid-West to escape the snow to teach High School Art in Orange County, California. Since finishing my MFA at Cal State Fullerton, I have been exhibiting in galleries both at home and abroad. My work is most often landscapes. A major portion of my output is paintings of slums of the developing world, where I often add an element of western cultural privilege (and oblivion) into settings of urban blight. Inspiration for what I call 'Slumscapes' comes from first-hand experience travelling. Most often I return over and over to my favorite destination: India. In the vast poverty-stricken fringes of its vast megalopolises I trip out on how the economic disparities are obscenely extreme. Ive been spending a lot of time in Mumbai slums: photographing, filming, creating Plein Aire paintings and creating interactive street art. Besides depicting slums, my artwork portrays post-apocalyptic debris fields, landfills, and detritus-cluttered deserts. The Juxtaposition of Disney themes and beloved characters (i.e.: Mickey Mouse) with all these dystopias best conveys my personal views. Pondering contemporary social, political, economical and philosophical conundrums, I cant help but feel absurdly helpless, pessimistic and humored about the future of Western Civilization. #jeffgillette #bleklerat #1xrun #streetart #dismaland #artcollector #urbanart #artauction (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CbnmYixLEkR/?utm_medium=tumblr

A beautiful @bobdylan artwork by Australian artist @anthonylister, will be coming to auction this Saturday. Register and Pre-Bid at www.ArtMeetsStreet.com. About the Artwork: Artist: Anthony Lister Title: Bob Dylan (Original Drawing) (Drawn from a photograph at Brett Whitely's Studio) Ink and white-out 280 gsm Stonehenge paper. 11 x 4.4 inches. Who is Anthony Lister? Anthony Lister is a contemporary Australian graffiti artist, best known for his merging of high and low cultural imagery in his work. Born in 1979 in Brisbane, Australia, he studied at the Queensland College of Art. In 2002, he traveled to New York, NY where he was mentored by the painter Max Gimblett. Lister helped pioneer the street art movement in his home city as a teenager, and is considered Australias premier street artist. His scrawling, figurative style employs charcoal, acrylic, spray paint, and oil. The first rule of painting is to take everyone else out of the equation,he has said. I am the viewer, so I dont underestimate my viewers. They see everything and I just have to assume that they are me. I cant paint for anyone else. His exhibitions include those held at the New Image Art Gallery in Los Angeles, Robert Fontaine Gallery in Miami, and Black Art Projects in Melbourne. Lister currently lives and works in Sydney, Australia. (at Brisbane, Queenland, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CaC22tGLlvU/?utm_medium=tumblr

Only 4 days until our next Premium Urban & Pop Art Auction. Taking place February 19th @ 10 AM PST. Link to the full catalogue is in our bio. About the lot: Artist: Denial Title: Rolex Decycled Type: Archival Pigment Print with Collage, Aerosol, Pencil, and Varnish Embellishments Size: 17.8125 x 23.75 Inches Release: December 09, 2021 Run of: 8 Comes signed by Denial and with an Original Artwork Letter of Provenance. ABOUT DENIAL: DENIAL is a Canadian artist whose work critiques consumerism and the human condition. Though based in Windsor Ontario, DENIAL spends much of the year traveling and exhibiting throughout Canada and USA, having done solo shows in Los Angeles, Chicago, Detroit, New York, Toronto and Vancouver. In 2000 he adopted the moniker DENIAL as a means of poking fun at advertising, politics and media messages that contemporary society is often "in denial" about. Since then he has maintained an ongoing global street-campaign of over 500, 000 stickers, placards and murals, using the alpha-numeric characters "D3N!@L". Intended as a conceptual means of marketing absurdism, DENIAL also challenges traditional notions of graffiti and public art through his bold and often satirical visual subversions.

Our next auction is on February 19th at 10am PST. A Link to the full catalogue is in the bio. The online auction will feature an array of works by some of the most eminent artists of today including Banksy, Invader, Bambi, Pure Evil, Kenny Scharf, Martin Whatson, Anthony Lister, Ai Weiwei, Taki 183, Mr. Brainwash, Denial, Shepard Fairey, Imbue and many more. About this lot: Mr. Brainwash (b. 1966) Legend Forever (Muhammad Ali) (Multi-Colour Edition), 2016 Screenprint in colors with hand embellishments on wove paper 22-1/2 x 30 inches (57.2 x 76.2 cm) (sheet) Ed. 16/18 Signed and numbered in pencil lower left, with date and artist's thumbprint verso. Published by the artist. No apparent condition issues. Print is rolled. About Mr. Brainwash: Biography: Mr Brainwash (AKA Thierry Guetta) in his own words is never not an artist, but born an artist. Mr. Brainwash became the central figure in the 2010 documentary, Exit Through the Gift Shop which was produced by the street artist Banksy. At the time, the character of Mr. Brainwash appeared to be a hoax perpetrated in the art world, but Brainwash has maintained art exhibitions and sales, creating a large following. His blend of pop imagery, historical figures, art history metanarratives, and image appropriation has produced an eclectic oeuvre. Mr. Brainwash works predominantly with stencils, screen printing, and spray paint. Many of his works such as Jimi Hendrix Purple Haze, 2009, and Love is the Answer, 2012 are collaged from well known imagery of his subjects with the added background of intense color layering like one might find on a well used graffiti wall in Mr. Brainwashs hometown of Los Angeles.
