The short enigmatic life of rapper Tupac "2Pac" Shakur forms a point-counterpoint lyric of inarguable artistry and undeniable violence. It's a story of inspiration and darkness, fame and infamy—a dichotomy Shakur understood only too well: "I feel like role models today are not meant to be put on a pedestal," he said. "But more like angels with broken wings." Shakur's life was ended at the age of 25 by a hail of bullets. He will be remembered for both the criminal past that informed his creativity, as well as the celebrated body of work he left behind.
Tupac Shakur, 1993. Tupac Amaru Shakur, aka "2Pac" and "Makaveli" was arrested for sexually assaulting a 19 year old woman he met at a New York nightclub along with three of his friends. He was sentenced to 4 and a half years in prison but received an early release after serving only 9 months in Clinton Correctional Facility. Shakur was later shot and killed in September 1996. His murder has never been officially solved. Remastered and enhanced (in an "on purpose" cheesy way), while remaining gritty and striking... sometimes off-putting, but always compelling.

Gerard Marti
Born and raised on the French Riviera, Gerard Marti attended the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Marseille, where at the age of 18 he studied Fine Art and the History of Arts. A couple of years later, he moved to Paris to pursue a career in the music industry. First as a songwriter, then as a record producer and video director for E.M.I. Records is one of the largest record companies in Europe. In 1991, fed up with the changing music industry, he moved to the United States, making Maui his home.
In Hawaii, Gerard Marti finally went back to where he first started and began painting again. In a typical style of Postmodern Eclecticism, Symbolism, and Pop Art, he creates paintings in a style that collapses into fragmented components, pop music, advertising, technology, and urban street poetry. Marti is engaged in an exercise of free association, where images and icons of contemporary culture collide, in a haphazard juxtaposition of style and traditions that give his work a distinctly European flavor.
“Pop Art should be glamorous, expendable, mass-produced, and popular". "My pieces combine all of these elements, people who look for symbolic meanings fail to grasp the inherent poetry and mystery of the images," I question the idea of authority and the traditional role of the artist. I like to take something from the everyday world and transform it into art. Most of my paintings involve the post-modernist technique of appropriation of anonymous images. My inspiration comes from the imagery of consumer society and popular culture.” Marti’s works combine anonymous images of women from film stills, advertisements, and erotic icons. It is sexy, gimmicky, and glamorous. Some of the pieces might shock the viewer by forcing them to face their mortality. “The role of an artist is to make the invisible, visible. Art is an open window in your mind.”

About Tupac :
Tupac Amaru Shakur born Lesane Parish Crooks, June 16, 1971 – September 13, 1996, also known by his stage names 2Pac and Makaveli, was an American rapper and actor. He is widely considered one of the most influential rappers of all time.
Shakur is among the best-selling music artists, having sold more than 75 million records worldwide. Much of Shakur's music has been noted for addressing contemporary social issues that plagued inner cities, and he is considered a symbol of activism against inequality.
Shakur was born in New York City to parents who were both political activists and Black Panther Party members. Raised by his mother, Afeni Shakur, he relocated to Baltimore in 1984 and to the San Francisco Bay Area in 1988. With the release of his debut album 2Pacalypse Now in 1991, he became a central figure in West Coast hip hop for his conscious rap lyrics.
Shakur achieved further critical and commercial success with his follow-up albums Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z... (1993) and Me Against the World (1995)
His Diamond certified album All Eyez on Me (1996), the first double-length album in hip-hop history, abandoned his introspective lyrics for volatile gangsta rap.
In addition to his music career, Shakur also found considerable success as an actor, with his starring roles in Juice (1992), Poetic Justice...
