About the Item
Kelly Graval (RISK) is a multi-talented creator, illustrator, and street artist who pioneered the West Coast graffiti movement. Born in 1967, RISK attended the USC School of Fine Arts, where he began to build his permanent notoriety in Los Angeles. The first street artist to paint freeway overpasses, dubbed “hitting up the heavens,” RISK’s legacy in contemporary art history is unmistakable. His talents quickly proved far from singular, expanding to canvas, sculpture, and massive street murals that celebrate and interact with their surrounding communities. Focused on transforming graffiti from an expressive subculture to an art form represented in galleries, RISK launched the Third Rail series of shows exhibiting the versatile medium. His art can be seen in the music videos of Michael Jackson, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Ice Cube, and Bad Religion. A regular collaborator with some of the world’s top musicians, RISK has created commissions for Aerosmith, hand-painted concert outfits for Halsey, and the cover art for Blink 182’s album “9”. RISK was the first artist invited to paint in Michaelangelo’s studio in over 400 years. His recent projects explore color field painting, repurposed sculpture, and multilayered explorations of psychedelia. Exhibited in galleries, museums, and streets worldwide, RISK additionally received the Lifetime Artistic Achievement Award at Art Wynwood in 2023.

RISK
Kelly Graval, the multi-talented fine artist, illustrator and graffiti artist known as "RISK" has been synonymous with the Los Angeles art community for decades. With a career spanning 30 years, Risk has solidified his place in the history books as world renowned graffiti legend, He has come a long way since he pioneered the painting of freeway overpasses, signs and billboards, dubbed "heavens". Although Risk loves aerosol art, he sees it as merely one genre in life's work. From his days as a student at the USC School of Fine Arts to gallery and museums exhibits around the globe, Risk has transformed from a street artist to a rising star in the contemporary art world. Risk's works are a cross-section of color field painting, light and space conceptualism and finish fetish sensibilities. Experimental methods exploit transparent aspects of kandy and pearl paint utilizing hi-tech materials, from California car and surf culture while staying true to his adaptive graffiti roots, recycling or repurposing materials all the same. Risk's work is a constant juxtaposition of advanced color theory, The work depicts an ethereal Yin and Yang quality visually and conceptually. Risk applies paint to his surfaces in multiple layers of various techniques starting with graffiti and ending with fine sprayed lacquer or resins over vintage candy, metal flake and pearl car paints. The finished product evokes emotion as the coats of atmospheric colors and gradations are trapped between the layers of lacquers and pearls. The end result is a dynamic, well-balanced and organized chaos.
