{"product_id":"homeworks","title":"Homeworks","description":"\u003cp\u003e*APC ART is pleased to present Invader’s historic “Homeworks,” a hand-pulled silkscreen in colors on wove paper measuring 50 × 70 cm (19.7 × 27.6 inches), published in London in 2006 by the legendary Pictures On Walls and hand numbered from the rare edition of only 100 impressions, bearing the publisher’s blind stamp. This exceptional example has been stored flat under archival conditions for nearly two decades and remains in remarkable, mint condition — a state of preservation that is extraordinarily difficult to encounter for this early and highly sought-after release.* \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*Invader stands, alongside Banksy, as one of the most important and influential artists to emerge from the global street art movement. Beginning in Paris in the late 1990s, the artist initiated his now-mythic program of urban “Invasions,” installing ceramic tile mosaics in carefully calculated locations across the world. Each work forms part of a rigorously documented cartographic system in which cities are mapped, numbered and scored — a conceptual practice that transformed street art into a historically grounded, globally recognized movement. From Paris to Los Angeles, Tokyo, London and beyond — and even the Hollywood sign, where the artist was famously arrested during an installation — Invader’s interventions redefined the relationship between public space, digital imagery and contemporary art.* \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*The editioned prints and maps that accompany these Invasions are not secondary objects but essential components of the project, translating the visual language of mosaic tiles into the medium of printmaking. His early collaboration with Banksy’s Pictures On Walls placed him at the very center of the most important print movement of the 21st century, alongside artists such as Shepard Fairey and others who reshaped the global editioned market. Since that time, landmark exhibitions including “Bad Men Part I \u0026amp; II” and the museum-level presentation “Invader: Masterpieces,” curated by his early gallerists Franck Le Feuvre and Jonathan Roze, have confirmed his institutional stature. His ambitious “Space Station” project — sending one of his works into orbit — extended the Invasion beyond the earth itself, while his current presentation with HENI alongside Damien Hirst and Shepard Fairey underscores his position at the highest level of contemporary art.* \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*Auction results have firmly cemented this historic ascent. Invader’s works have achieved seven-figure prices, most notably the monumental Astro Boy Alias mosaic, which realized over €1,000,000 at auction — a watershed moment that positioned him among the most desirable artists of our time. Today his works reside in major private collections and leading museums worldwide and are collected by prominent figures across film, music, sport and global finance.* \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*“Homeworks” is one of the most iconic and intellectually refined prints from the Pictures On Walls era. Executed on graph paper, the composition references the artist’s original process of plotting mosaic placements and invasion strategies, transforming the sheet into both a conceptual blueprint and a fully resolved visual field. The repeated red Space Invader figures, rendered in a hand-drawn, pixelated language, are punctuated by black vertical bars that function like architectural markers within the grid. The work collapses drawing, mapping, digital aesthetics and serial repetition into a single image — a perfect distillation of Invader’s practice. The POW imprimatur places the print within the most historically significant period of the urban art print movement, and the extremely limited edition of one hundred impressions ensures its rarity and long-term desirability.* \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*Through decades of discipline, precision and conceptual clarity, Invader has elevated a subcultural visual code into a museum-level artistic language. Beside Banksy, and through relentless dedication and risk, he has become one of the most sought-after and respected street artists in the world.* \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*This pristine, never-framed example represents a blue-chip acquisition and a cornerstone work for any serious contemporary or urban art collection. We are pleased to offer museum-standard archival framing options. The work is in hand in the United States and ready for immediate shipment.* \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*An iconic and historically significant Invader — destined to become the focal point of even the most rigorously curated 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\u003clabel class=\"ControlGroup__Title-sc-2587cfb4-1 iJgrdA\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProvenance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/label\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ControlGroup__Description-sc-2587cfb4-2 deluFC\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003ePurchased direct from the publisher in 2006. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrivate collection, London, England.
