In the early 1970s, skate culture and street art became deeply intertwined, and a new medium for artists was born: the skate deck. In earlier days, when skateboarding was a still a subculture on the fringe, simply being a skater was enough to set oneself apart from the crowd. However, the growing popularity of the sport pushed many creative skaters to find ways to individualize their boards. Borrowing from motifs and styles popularized by graffiti artists, skaters designed the undersides of their boards an extension of themselves. In the decades since, fine art, street art, and skate culture have become inseparable, with renowned artists like Keith Haring, Shepard Fairey, Yayoi Kusama, and Yoshitomo Nara reproducing some of their most famous works on the decks of skateboards.
Hand painted and hand signed. Boldly signed and dated in black marker; numbered 1/10 in black marker pen on the reverse. Since it's hand painted, each of the 10 works in the edition, including the present work, is a unique variant.
In 2010, Ben Eine made international headlines when one of his works ended up as a gift given by British Prime Minister David Cameron to the US President Barack Obama. One of the many contemporaneous articles at the time, reads as follows:
"Eine recalls the moment which would essentially usher in the turning point of his career: “I did a work for someone the end of last year and she phoned me up last Friday and asked if I’d be interested to have David Cameron give President Obama one of my paintings as a gift. I was shocked. She passed my number to Downing Street and then I sent them a few examples and they picked that one.” The “one” is Eine’s TWENTYFIRSTCENTURYCITY, chosen purportedly because its red, white and blue colors are reminiscent of both the American and British flags. It is said to be worth only 2,500 pounds. Before the news that is..."

- Geometric abstraction mid century modern constructivist painted metal sculptureLocated in New York, NYForrest Myers Untitled geometric abstraction, 1976 Painted aluminum Signed in the metal with the artist's incised initials (FM) and stamp numbered 52/75; bears Treitel-Gratz foundry mark 15 × 13 1/2 × 6 in Unframed This painted aluminum sculpture was made by the American artist Forrest Myers. Myers is known for creating artworks that hold their own space; they maintain their presence through his manipulation of each chosen material's inherent properties. Numbered 52/75 Foundry: Treitel-Gratz, NY Forrest Myers Biography: An artist who greatly expanded the functional vocabulary of sculpture, Myer’s work is foremost, the result of his empirical explorations in materiality. For 40 years, he has been experimenting with the inherent properties of metal. The show will not only present his early dynamic pipe sculpture, his more austere flattened pieces made of oxidized steel plates, and his early woven wire “chairs” but will show for the first time, his most recent body of work including Parker and Vesuvio. The contemporary works, sculpted and intricately worked, are his most brilliantly complex to date. Myers most popularly known work The Wall (1973) at the corner of Broadway and Houston is currently under reinstallation (it was disassembled in 1997 to utilize the wall for income-generating advertisements). Often called the “Gateway to Soho,” this long embattled sculpture—a vibrant relief commissioned to disguise steel joists jutting from the brick wall of a building at this intersection). It will now regain its place as the New York’s largest public sculpture. Born in Hawaii (b.1941) and raised in California, Myers moved east in 1961 and quickly became part of New York’s vibrant artistic community. He was a founding member of the Park Place Gallery, where he exhibited large-scale sculptures with colleagues Mark di Suvero and Robert Grosvenor...Category
