John O'Hara, Deck, 18, Encaustic Painting

About the Item

The Deck series. Screen-printed maple skate decks. Float-mounted on encaustic painted boards.This open edition set of 4 skate decks features Keith Haring's Man and Medusa and was designed in 2018 by The Skateroom with the Keith Haring Foundation. Art dimensions: 48 x 48 H inches Framed dimensions: 49.5 W x 49.5 H x 4 D inches Over a year in the making, Decks is a mixed media series combining O'Hara's favorite medium, encaustic wax, as the backdrop and base for art-edition skate decks. The skate decks, screen-printed with contemporary art by Warhol, Basquiat, Haring, and more, are float mounted onto board. With a nod to pop art and street art, each board is painted to complement the decks that sit atop. In works like Deck 15 and Deck 18, O'Hara float mounts sets of Keith Haring decks and pays homage to the street art legend by mimicking Haring's style on the board behind. Beautifully framed, O'Hara's Deck series is a cool collection, destined for some cool rooms. We are proud to be the exclusive gallery of John O'Hara (American, b. 1963). O'Hara is a self-taught artist from St. Louis and is known for his large-scale abstract decorative pieces. His medium of choice is encaustic—a mixture of pigments and beeswax and he allows the material to dictate color, line and texture. His works often feature natural and organic forms and incorporate both figural and abstract elements. O'Hara began his art career in 2018 and collectors and designers quickly took notice. His work is included in both public and private collections around the world. Michael Kors selected O'Hara's Tar series paintings for his Milan, Paris, and New York showrooms and his flagship store in London designed by Pamela Meech. O'Hara's Brands on Yellow is hanging in the lounge of Maison de Luz, the new luxury hotel by Atelier Ace and designed by AD100 design firm Studio Shamshiri. O'Hara, co-founder of Forsyth, is known for his Tar series, Brands series, Vinyl series, Botanical series, Daisies series, Sardinia series, and Get Your Shit Together series.
