APC ART is pleased to present “Alert” (Blue Variant) — an exceptionally rare and highly sought after edition by the legendary French street artist INVADER.

Widely regarded as one of the most important and influential street artists of the last quarter century, INVADER has built an international cult following through his instantly recognizable pixelated mosaics inspired by early 8-bit video games, digital culture, and the iconic Space Invaders arcade game.

Since the late 1990s, INVADER has “invaded” cities throughout the world — discreetly installing his signature ceramic tile mosaics on buildings, walls, bridges, and public spaces across Paris, Tokyo, Hong Kong, London, New York, Miami, Los Angeles, and beyond.

Part street artist, part conceptual interventionist, and part cultural archivist, INVADER has created one of the most important and globally recognizable artistic movements in contemporary urban art.

“Alert” (Blue Variant) is widely regarded as one of the artist’s most visually iconic and desirable silkscreen editions.

The composition brilliantly captures the visual language that has made INVADER a global phenomenon — combining minimalist pixel-based imagery with extraordinary visual sophistication and conceptual clarity.

Rendered in crisp black, white, blue, and red against a striking geometric composition, the work immediately recalls early digital graphics, arcade aesthetics, and retro gaming culture while simultaneously functioning as a refined contemporary abstract image.

Like the strongest examples of INVADER’s work, “Alert” manages to feel nostalgic, futuristic, playful, and intellectually sharp all at once.

Executed as a beautiful hand pulled silkscreen print in colors on wove paper, the work possesses the rich saturation, texture, and tactile depth collectors have come to expect from INVADER’s finest editions.

Each example has been hand signed, dated, and numbered by the artist in graphite pencil.

Published by MGLC Ljubljana in 2020 in a remarkably small edition of only 60 works, examples from the “Alert” series have become increasingly difficult to acquire — particularly desirable color variants such as this stunning blue version.

Importantly, INVADER editions from this period continue to experience tremendous international demand as collectors increasingly recognize the artist’s historical importance within both contemporary art and global street culture.

Measuring approximately 60cm x 60cm (approximately 23.6” x 23.6”), the work possesses exceptional scale and presence while remaining remarkably versatile for display.

Whether installed within a contemporary interior, minimalist collection, or major street art collection, “Alert” commands immediate attention.

An absolutely iconic work by one of the defining artists of contemporary urban art.

The work is in hand in the USA and available for immediate dispatch.

We are pleased to offer archival framing options for our global collector base.

Please feel free to inquire regarding additional rare INVADER editions and works currently available through APC ART.
