{"product_id":"art-deco-with-black-glitter","title":"ART DECO WITH BLACK GLITTER","description":"\u003cp\u003e*APC ART is pleased to present “ART DECO WITH BLACK GLITTER” by Ben Eine — an exceptional early original work executed in acrylic, spray paint, and diamond dust on canvas, hand signed, dated, and titled en verso in black ink “BEN EINE* 2007.” The work has been professionally float framed in a custom hand-cut black frame and is presented ready to hang.*\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*Ben Eine is one of the most influential and recognizable figures to emerge from the early London street art movement, and a pivotal force behind the evolution of contemporary urban typography. Rising from the Shoreditch scene in the late 1990s and early 2000s, Eine became globally known for his bold alphabet-based murals, transforming entire streets into typographic landscapes. His work helped define the visual identity of modern street art and remains instantly recognizable across the world.*\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*Eine’s impact extends far beyond his own practice. As a central figure within the now-legendary Pictures On Walls (POW) print house, he worked closely alongside Banksy and played a critical role in the production of many of Banksy’s earliest and most iconic editions, as well as numerous important releases from other key artists between 2002 and 2008. His technical expertise as a master screen printer and his creative collaboration during this formative period position him as an essential architect of the contemporary urban art market as we know it today.*\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*His typographic works — spanning countless fonts developed and sprayed across London and internationally — have become iconic cultural markers. Each alphabet is distinct, carefully constructed, and reflective of both historical design influences and contemporary urban energy. Among these, the “Art Deco” font stands as one of his more refined and less commonly encountered styles, drawing from early 20th-century design while maintaining the bold immediacy that defines his work.*\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*This 2007 original canvas represents a particularly important and early example of Eine’s practice. The composition presents a full alphabet rendered in the “Art Deco” font, elevated through the use of diamond dust, which creates a continuous shimmering effect across the surface. The contrast between the deep black acrylic ground and the luminous, glitter-infused letterforms produces a striking visual tension — at once graphic, elegant, and undeniably powerful.*\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*Original paintings by Ben Eine have always been in strong demand, particularly early works that showcase the development of his iconic typographic language. Examples in less frequently seen fonts such as this are especially rare and highly sought after by serious collectors. This work further benefits from its provenance, having formed part of an influential New York collection.*\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*This is a museum-quality example of one of the most important artists to emerge from the street art movement — a work that captures both the history and evolution of contemporary urban typography.*\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*An excellent investment opportunity. Early originals of this caliber, rarity, and condition are increasingly difficult to source as institutional and collector demand continues to grow.*\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*The work is in hand and will ship immediately from the United States. APC ART is pleased to offer professional archival consultation if desired.*\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*An iconic and historically significant Ben Eine — a cornerstone work for any serious contemporary or urban art collection.*\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*OFFERED EXCLUSIVELY BY APC ART* \u003cbr\u003e*MIA • ATL • NYC • LA • LONDON • PARIS • TOKYO* \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003clabel class=\"ControlGroup__Title-sc-2587cfb4-1 iJgrdA\"\u003eProvenance\u003c\/label\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ControlGroup__Description-sc-2587cfb4-2 deluFC\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePrivate collection; NYC, USA. \u003cbr\u003eIncluded with the work will be an APCoa, guaranteeing authenticity in perpetuity.
