The chance we were waiting for - street art acrylic painting

2021

About the Item

Square composition made in acrylic paint and oil pastel on linen canvas in the street art style graffiti imitating the wall of a house in the centre of Barcelona. Diversity and bright colors with a predominance of red, blue, purple, turquoise and yellow. The work is not covered with glossy varnish, signed on both sides and ready for hanging. Does not require registration in the frame. Ideal for minimalist, loft, modern and eclectic interiors. One day I got lost in the Gothic Quarter in its labyrinth full of cold and pictorial walls. From then on this fantastic world began to accompany me and continues to accompany me until now. This world is much more of graffiti, drawings or personal opinions that express with a rather special sense of humor or declare some social position. Yes and no, all and none of that. Street art is always an adventure, it is a real risk, it is not only literally a danger but the risk of finding oneself. It is an exterior experience as well as an interior one, because the things of the street stimulate your self-investigation. This type of art is very curious because it is actually a bridge between the artist and society, art and reality, the home and the street. In addition, my paintings are not only philosophical but also therapeutic because they invite healing from various fears. The voice of the street asks you in a very special way. It is a part of some energetic expression.

    By Danny Brown
    Located in Los Angeles, CA
    Danny Brown’s artworks allocate an intrinsic connection between himself and the diverse communities occupying Los Angeles.

This one-of-a-kind acrylic and oil stick painting on canvas measures 64.5 inches high by 64 inches wide. It is signed by Brown on the back. The artwork is stretched, wired, and ready to hang. It does not require framing. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and International shipping available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included. Danny Brown is a first-generation American urban artist born in Los Angeles. His parents relocated their family from Oaxaca, Mexico in search of opportunities in the United States. Brown uses his interest in fashion as well as his knowledge of color, design, and culture as inspiration for his paintings. The loss of friends to violence and incarceration, combined with the loss of a family member to gang violence pushed Brown to use art as a source of therapy and to project a positive inspiring image for his community. Brown’s art coalesces youth culture, art history, fashion, and American consumerism and melds them all to create his unique style. Instantly relatable and recognizable, his cathartic paintings represent contemporary issues as well as a demographic that is traditionally underrepresented in fine art. His works speak to young Americans and inspire a whole new generation of art collectors and admirers. Since 2016, Daniel Brown...
