signed in pencil in the margin, 24/88 in pencil in the plate; thumbprint and dated 2017 on the reverse silkscreen on hand torn archival paper 122 by 92cm Brazen, unapologetic and positioned at the forefront of street art culture, Mr. Brainwashis one of the fearless renegades of contemporary art. The French-born, Los Angeles-based artist is lesser known by his given name of Thierry Guetta, yet his moniker has become synonymous with the explosive collision between pop art and graffiti culture.Treading the boundary between high art and guerrilla satire, Guetta walks arm-in-armwith another one of the urban contemporary scene’s ubiquitous enigmas, Banksy.It was fellow street artist’s Banksy’s Academy Award-nominated 2010 documentary,Exit Through the Gift Shop, that helped to propel Guetta’s unconventionally swift riseto commercial stardom(1).Following the release of the acclaimed documentary, critics began to speculate asto whether Guetta was an authentic creator or an elaborate hoax conjured by theanonymous Banksy. After noting the undeniable likeness between the two artists’styles, some suggested that Mr. Brainwash’s works had actually been created byBanksy himself, while his unruly protégé was an intricate comment on the nature offame within the art world(2). Banksy took to his website to vehemently deny the claims.The widespread controversy only further amplified the notoriety of Mr. Brainwash.The artist’s works toy with pop culture iconography, subverting society’s mostrecognizable images through the sharp-witted use of reconceptualised appropriation.Guetta has captured the imagination of the international market, captivating thediscerning eye of collectors with his large-scale works currently fetching hundreds ofthousands of dollars(3).Deeply inspired by the work of Pop Art prince, Andy Warhol, Guetta has oftenfeatured Hollywood celebrities and cultural icons as the subjects of his vivid portraits.The artist has created images paying tribute to Kate Moss, Jimmy Hendrix, CharlieChaplin, Albert Einstein, and here, Dr Martin Luther King Jnr.Aptly entitled King, the limited edition monochromatic screenprint features the faceof the civil rights movement’s most influential figure. The portrait, with King’s piercinggaze and the austere use of black ink, is exceptional amid the artist’s more typicaltechnicolour works. As a characteristic tongue-in-cheek nod to the controversysurrounding the authenticity of his work, the screenprint boasts Guetta’s ownthumbprint on the reverse. - E.S.K.1.

signed and dated 25.7.1996 mixed media on paper laid down on canvas Neo-Expressionism is a style of painting and sculpture that developed between late Modernism and early Postmodernism. Some scholars, in fact, believe Neo-Expressionism played a vital role in the transition between Modernism and Postmodernism in that Neo-Expressionism accepted and rejuvenated historical and mythological imagery, as opposed to late modernism’s tendency to reject storytelling completely. Though many artists have practiced and revived aspects of the original Expressionism movement, it would appear that only the Neo-Expressionists have had far-reaching success. Georg Baselitz was a leading component, instigating a revival that dominated German art in the 1970s. By the 1980s this resurgence had become part of an international return to the sensuousness of painting, and a broad step away from the stylistically cool, distant sparseness of Minimalism and Conceptualism. All over the world artists began turning towards expressive directions, creating works that affirmed the redemptive power of art in general and painting in particular, drawing upon a variety of themes including the mythological, cultural, historical, nationalist and erotic.A. R. Penck is one of many pseudonyms of Ralph Winkler, a German Neo-Expressionist fine artist and jazz drummer. Penck is best known for his paintings and sculptures characterized by simplified figures and forms, and neo-primitive symbols and patterns. These lend his work a graffiti like quality, as is evidenced in Colosseum, 1990. Living in communist East Berlin, Penck was unable to exhibit his works. This led him to smuggle his works out to West Berlin and Switzerland, where he received enough acclaim to provide him with some protection from the East German authorities, until he was able to escape and settle in London. This background explains why Penck’s style fuses spontaneous self-expression with restraint, and pop culture and art historical influences with political and social concerns.Of the key tenets of Neo-Expressionism was the depiction of subject matter in a brutish manner. The frequently large-scale works, typical of the movement, exhibited highly textural and expressive brushwork and intense colours that had been rejected by the immediately preceding art movements. We see these ideas developed in the following lots by Penck, Jüchser, Morgner, Uhlig, König and Gallasch, all proponents of the Neo-Expressionist movement.Artsy. “A. R.
