**APC ART is pleased to offer our global collector base this incredibly special, unique original work by the groundbreaking British artist, *Slawn*.**

**Not in many decades has an artist taken the world by storm like *Olaolu Slawn*.**

*Born in Lagos, Nigeria; **Slawn** became a fixture in the lesser known Lagos skating scene in his teens.*

*His brand/marque **”Motherlan”** was praised by Virgil Abloh shortly before his untimely death.*

**By his twenties *Slawn* had arrived in London for university; it was during the pandemic that he found himself painting.**

*Shortly afterwards he held his first exhibition near the Truman brewery.*

**Even the artist, himself, could not have expected the world wind of critical acclaim that followed; *Slawn* is the youngest artist to have designed a Brit award, he has collaborated with 21 Savage, Lil Yachty as well as Nike for the 2026 World Cup.**

*The artist’s first major exhibition debut at Saatchi Yates; “I present to you.. Slawn” cemented his role as an icon in the world of art and culture.*

**In 2025, *Slawn* joined forces with East London graffiti legend *Opake* for the “Heroes, Villains & Violence” exhibition at the museum of graffiti… *PRODUCED BY APC ART*.**

**Not since “MBW; UNDER CONSTRUCTION” had Art Basel seen a tour du force the likes of *”Heroes…”*

*It is safe to say that **Slawn** is undoubtedly the biggest artist in the world and his status and stature show no signs of slowing…*

**It is with great pleasure we present to you this absolutely iconic, 1/1 work executed by *Slawn* in 2025.** 

*This one-of-one mixed media work, executed in bold black marker on wove paper with hand-deckled edges, is a striking example of the raw, fearless energy that has propelled Slawn to the forefront of the contemporary art world. What makes this piece particularly desirable is its rarity: while most works from the artist’s acclaimed Minutemen series remain unsigned, this piece bears Slawn’s hand signature on the bottom right of the sheet. This detail alone elevates the work into a significantly higher category of collectability and value.*

**Slawn has quickly become one of the most powerful forces to emerge in the art world in decades.** 

*Represented by Saatchi Yates, his meteoric rise has been fueled by his ability to bridge the worlds of street culture and high contemporary art.*

**His works exude a visceral immediacy that has resonated deeply with a new generation of collectors, critics, and institutions worldwide.**

*Often compared to the great disruptors of past generations, Slawn’s voice is wholly his own—unfiltered, unrelenting, and unapologetically contemporary.*

**This original piece embodies the energy, rebellion, and visual punch that have made Slawn’s works so coveted on the global market. Few artists in recent memory have achieved his level of acclaim and desirability so quickly; his exhibitions sell out instantly, and his works command a constant presence on the international secondary market. Collectors recognize Slawn not only as a cultural phenomenon, but as one of the most important voices shaping the direction of 21st-century art.**

**This is an outstanding investment opportunity. Original works of this caliber, especially from the Minutemen series and signed by the artist, are exceedingly rare and highly sought after.**

*This piece is in hand, ready to ship immediately.
**APC ART** is also pleased to offer archival framing options—please feel free to inquire should you wish to have the work framed prior to shipment.*
