{"product_id":"large-calibre-man-art-basel-exclusive","title":"Large Calibre Man (Art Basel exclusive)","description":"\u003cp\u003e*APC ART is proud to present a dynamic collaborative work by two of the most important voices in contemporary street and graffiti culture, **Slawn and OPAKE**, titled **“Popeye.”***\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExecuted as an **archival pigment print in colors on 300gsm archival paper**, this bold and instantly recognizable work measures **24 inches x 24 inches** and is issued from a **strictly limited edition of only 100 works worldwide**. Each example is **hand signed by both Slawn and OPAKE in graphite pencil**, **hand numbered from the edition**, with the signatures placed along the **bottom right margin**, offering collectors direct, unmistakable artist involvement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e**Slawn’s meteoric rise has been nothing short of extraordinary.** In an incredibly short period of time, he has ascended from underground notoriety to global cultural dominance, becoming one of the most collected, discussed, and sought-after artists working today. His works are aggressively pursued by **major private collectors, celebrities, musicians, athletes, fashion icons, and international tastemakers**, with auction results that consistently reinforce his explosive market demand. Slawn’s enormous and fiercely loyal fan base is driven by his raw authenticity, fearless irreverence, and unmistakable visual language — qualities that have propelled him beyond the traditional art world and into the heart of contemporary culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e**OPAKE** represents the foundation and evolution of graffiti culture. A **true graffiti writer at his core**, OPAKE has seamlessly expanded into fine art, pop imagery, and contemporary abstraction while maintaining absolute credibility within the culture. He is a **multi-faceted artist in the truest sense** — equally respected as a street artist, pop artist, and studio practitioner. His influence on contemporary urban art is profound, and his visual language is immediately recognizable to those who understand graffiti’s lineage and its place in modern art history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*“Popeye”* is a perfect collision of both artists’ worlds. The work is unmistakably Slawn — loud, cartoonish, aggressive, humorous, and psychologically charged — embodying the stylistic motifs that have made him the most talked-about artist of his generation. At the same time, OPAKE’s influence grounds the composition with confident line work, graphic balance, and deep-rooted graffiti sensibility. The result is a work that feels chaotic yet controlled, playful yet confrontational — a defining example of this powerful collaboration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis edition was released in collaboration with the **Museum of Graffiti and APC ART** for Slawn and OPAKE’s blockbuster Art Miami exhibition, **“Heroes, Villains and Violence,”** held at the Museum of Graffiti in Miami. The exhibition was **produced by APC ART**, firmly situating this work within an important institutional and historical context tied directly to one of the most talked-about shows of Art Miami.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work is **in hand in Miami Beach** and will **ship immediately from the United States**, professionally packed and fully insured. Clients in the Miami Beach area are welcome to inquire regarding viewing options **by appointment only**.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is an **exceptional investment opportunity** — a limited, dual-signed collaborative work released at a pivotal moment in both artists’ careers. Editions of this caliber, tied directly to landmark exhibitions and produced in such small numbers, are increasingly difficult to acquire and rarely remain available for long.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*APC ART is pleased to offer archival framing options*, including museum-grade UV-protective glazing and custom framing solutions designed to preserve and present the work at the highest standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*OFFERED EXCLUSIVELY BY APC ART* \u003cbr\u003e*MIA.
