About the Item

Unique Artwork in crayons. About the work: CRAYONS NOT CARNAGE In January 2015 following the terrorist attacks that hit Charlie Hebdo magazine in France, Luke Newton created his first pencil gun. The work was part of the conceptual approach of the artist. A pencil weapon, a consumer item for children that can be dangerous. Luke Newton is a young British artist who graduated from Saint Martins School . Luke Newton sees the world of art as a vast arena where he can hit the great artistic figures of contemporary society with his game of ping pong. Warhol and Duchamp are on the same boat, art falls into the water. Who's left? In a permanent second degree, he derides and relativizes his role as an artist in a society overwhelmed by images. Pencils draw pencils, mice sculpt mice... And through them the artist puts himself in the abyss. Thus, he makes Industrial Home Made, creating himself "factory objects" of surgical precision.

FALCONE - Life is Beautiful - Infinity
Located in PARIS, FR
Limited Edition, Light box Falcone is a self-taught artist and designer with deep roots in the history of art. The art foundation of his grandfather, passionate about geometric and kinetic works, was the playground of his childhood. Carmelo Arden Quin's unstructured paintings intrigued him, he played with the reliefs of Agam and those of Soto. Circles, squares, endlessly supported by shape and color, lead him to go further, to multiply the image without end. He positions his creations between experience and contemplative work. The artist chooses LEDs, neon lights, optical fibers...

Located in New York, NY
Richard Prince Untitled (de Kooning), 2008 Collage with color offset lithograph, hand-cutting, hand-painting and assemblage with extensive additions in graphite mounted on on inset board. Hand signed and numbered with the letter L (from A-Z) by artist on the front Frame Included Richard Prince’s “de Kooning” series is a process of interaction and appropriation with the works of ground-breaking imagery of the Abstract Expressionist master, Willem de Kooning. The idea for these edgy, Oedipal works came to him when he was leafing through a catalogue of de Kooning’s "Women" series. Prince started sketching over the paintings, and, as time went on, he began applying fragments cut and pasted from catalogues and vintage porn...
