*APC ART is proud to present **Electric Crush (Green Variant)**, one of the most distinctive and ambitious works from FAILE's celebrated 2026 **Street Print Series**. Measuring an impressive **35 x 23.5 inches**, this exceptional mixed-media work combines screenprinting and hand-painted acrylic on reclaimed municipal architectural blueprint paper. Each example is individually hand-cut, painted and naturally weathered by its time within the artists' Brooklyn studio before release, ensuring that no two examples are exactly alike. Signed "Faile" in the lower left margin and "1976" in the lower right, each work is numbered from the remarkably small edition of just **55** on the reverse, stamped **March 26, 2026**, and bears the artists' unique coffee stain signatures en verso—a playful and highly personal authentication method that has become synonymous with this extraordinary series.*

*Founded in Brooklyn in 1999 by Patrick McNeil (b. 1975) and Patrick Miller (b. 1976), FAILE has become one of the defining forces within contemporary street art. Their unmistakable visual language blends comic books, advertising, typography, religious iconography, pop culture and hand-painted collage into richly layered compositions that reward repeated viewing. Working across murals, paintings, sculpture, mosaics, installations and printmaking, the duo has spent more than two decades redefining what contemporary urban art can be.*

*FAILE's work has been exhibited by many of the world's leading museums and institutions, including the Brooklyn Museum, Dallas Contemporary and the Palazzo Ducale in Genoa, while their monumental public installations and murals have transformed cities around the globe. Their celebrated projects at New York's Times Square, the Temple installation at Lisbon's Underdogs Gallery and permanent mosaics throughout New York City have firmly established them among the most influential artists to emerge from the street art movement. Today their work is collected internationally by major private collectors alongside many of the world's foremost contemporary art collections.*

*Electric Crush perfectly encapsulates everything collectors admire about FAILE's work. A glamorous pop-inspired female figure is interrupted by an electric burst of vivid green, simultaneously seductive and disruptive. Like much of FAILE's imagery, the composition explores attraction, technology, desire and modern communication through a visual language borrowed from vintage advertising and comic book aesthetics. The result feels nostalgic and unmistakably contemporary at the same time—an image that invites interpretation while remaining visually striking from across the room.*

*What makes the Street Print Series especially compelling is the extraordinary surface upon which each work is created. Rather than traditional fine art paper, FAILE prints directly onto reclaimed municipal architectural blueprint paper. Every sheet possesses its own history—creases, wrinkles, subtle discoloration and traces of previous use become part of the finished artwork rather than imperfections. The artists further enhance each sheet with hand-applied acrylic, allowing every print to develop its own personality and physical presence. The naturally curled edges, textured surface and accumulated studio patina give these works a warmth and authenticity that simply cannot be replicated through conventional printmaking.*

*Perhaps the most remarkable aspect of **Electric Crush** is that **every work in the edition is entirely unique**. While limited to just **55 examples**, no two pieces are alike. Each sheet begins as a different reclaimed municipal architectural drawing, complete with its own history, wrinkles, folds, edge variations and surface character. FAILE then individually hand-cuts, hand-paints and works directly onto every sheet before finishing each piece with their signature coffee stain authentication on the reverse. As a result, every example possesses its own distinct personality, placing these works somewhere between a traditional editioned print and a one-of-a-kind original. Collectors are not simply acquiring an edition—they are acquiring a unique work of art that can never be exactly replicated.*

*Collectors increasingly recognize these highly experimental editions as some of FAILE's most exciting and innovative releases. Produced in an edition of only **55** unique examples, each work exists somewhere between a traditional editioned print and an original mixed-media artwork. The combination of reclaimed materials, extensive hand-finishing, coffee stain signatures and the individuality of every sheet makes this one of the most desirable contemporary editions the duo has produced in recent years.*

*Investing in FAILE offers not only an opportunity to own work by one of the most important artistic collaborations of the past twenty-five years, but also to acquire pieces that continue to challenge traditional artistic boundaries. Their layered narratives and visually complex compositions encourage collectors to revisit the work repeatedly, discovering new details and interpretations with every viewing. FAILE's art is more than decoration—it is cultural commentary, a conversation starter and a bold statement of contemporary creativity. Owning their work means owning a significant chapter in the continuing evolution of contemporary street art.*
