About the Item
Alec Monopoly
Rich Airways, 2021
Sculpture, Painted Cast Vinyl
18 × 14 in 45.7 × 35.6 cm
Edition of 250
In his murals, cavanses, and prints, Alec Monopoly (born Alec Andon) invites his viewers to simultaneously critique and buy into ideas of celebrity, money, and fame. Monopoly often depicts Rich Uncle Pennybags, the suited mascot of the board game that inspired the artist’s moniker. The mustachioed character, who frequently carries a money bag or demonstrates other conspicuous markers of wealth throughout the artist’s wry work, becomes a stand-in for capitalist greed. Monopoly has also incorporated pop culture figures and characters including Bob Dylan, Patrick Bateman, Scrooge McDuck, and Richie Rich into his street art practice. He has enjoyed exhibitions in Miami, Moscow, and other cities.
