Ben Eine, a British street artist and typographer, has left an indelible mark on the urban art scene with his distinctive and vibrant letterforms. Born in London, Eine's journey in art began as a graffiti artist, eventually evolving into a more formalized exploration of typography. What sets Eine apart is his unique ability to fuse traditional lettering with a contemporary, street-art aesthetic. His large-scale murals, often featuring single words or short phrases, bring a dynamic energy to urban landscapes. Eine gained widespread recognition when former British Prime Minister David Cameron gifted one of his artworks to former U.S. President Barack Obama. The artist's work is characterized by bold colors, sharp contrasts, and a playful yet impactful use of language. Eine's typographic art not only transforms ordinary city spaces but also challenges preconceptions about the intersection of street art, typography, and traditional forms of artistic expression. With a global presence, Ben Eine continues to be a trailblazer, contributing to the dynamic and evolving realm of contemporary street art.

Ben Eine
Born in London (August 23, 1970), Ben Eine is one of the most successful letterform artists in the world and is regarded as a pioneer in the exploration of contemporary typography art. Originally a graffiti writer, Eine started his career over 30 years ago, leaving his first tag all over London before developing his distinct typographic style.
Eine began painting huge, bright and colourful letters on shutters all over East London, creating beautiful forms executed with a relentless “graffiti mentality” – painting over sixty shutters in a couple of months. These imposing and engaging, yet unattributed, anonymously-painted letters stood out from the usual tags and dubs seen on the streets. They caught the public’s attention and were seminal in the rise of street art’s popularity. Eine’s partnership with the, then emerging, London graffiti artist Banksy was hugely influential to the commercial success of both artists. In 2003 The pair set up the famous Pictures on Walls gallery, with a loose collective of other artists, in order to print and sell street art. POW was established in the spirit of Punk’s DIY movement because, as Eine recalls; “There wasn’t one gallery in London or the world that would touch what we were doing”. Eine’s international acclaim was further heightened when the UK Prime Minister David Cameron gifted his ‘Twenty First Century City’ artwork to President Obama in 2010. His work is now held in the permanent collections of the V&A Museum London, The Museum of Modern Art Los Angeles, San Francisco’s Museum of Contemporary Art, Berlin’s Urban Nation Street Art Museum, Los Angeles ‘Beyond The Streets’ and The Dean Collection as well as the private collection of Louis Vuitton and numerous other commercial institutions. Fashion has always been a love of Eine’s. He enjoys an on-going collaboration with Louis Vuitton as well as his own clothing brand, Eine London, which was launched with great success at London Fashion Week 2018. Eine’s painted shop shutters and murals can still be found all over the world. His distinctive letters continue to spell words and phrases across walls from London to LA, Florence to Tokyo. He continues to use street art to engage and surprise the public. In 2018 Eine unveiled the largest street art work in the world; the ‘CREATE’ mural – a 17500 square foot artwork painted on industrial ground in East London that is visible from space.
