*APC ART is pleased to present Slawn’s “Minutemen Boxing Gloves Set,” a powerful paired work executed in hand-sprayed acrylic on a set of 12 oz regulation white leather boxing gloves, each measuring approximately 12” × 5” x 3”. This set forms part of the strictly limited edition of only 300 unique, individually hand-executed pairs — every example a true 1/1 within the series — and was exhibited during the landmark “Heroes, Villains & Violence” presentation at the Museum of Graffiti during Art Basel Miami.*

*At this scale the gloves function not merely as painted objects but as sculptural contemporary artworks — athletic instruments transformed into charged cultural artifacts. Slawn’s unmistakable visual language is immediately present: the sweeping, instinctive line; the mask-like Minutemen face; the exaggerated looping forms; and the controlled overspray that gives the surface a sense of velocity and raw immediacy. The vivid green pigment floats across the white ground with a fluorescent intensity, activating the leather surface and emphasizing the curvature of the form, while the visible spray pattern and micro-splatter preserve the physical gesture of the artist’s hand.*

*As with the most desirable examples from this now-iconic series, the composition is not a reproduction or a transfer but a direct, physical intervention — the paint sitting on the leather as a record of the moment of execution. The result is a work that carries the same energy and spontaneity as Slawn’s paintings and works on canvas, while simultaneously referencing boxing culture, performance, and confrontation — central conceptual pillars of the “Heroes, Villains & Violence” exhibition.*

*The Minutemen motif has become one of the defining visual signatures of Slawn’s meteoric rise. Equal parts humor, tension, and cultural commentary, the figure operates as a contemporary icon — instantly recognizable and deeply connected to the artist’s broader practice. Here, the imagery wraps across the sculptural form of the gloves, creating a continuous visual dialogue between the two objects and reinforcing the idea of the pair as a unified work.*

*These glove sets sold out rapidly during the exhibition and have since become increasingly difficult to source, particularly as complete, matching pairs with strong, dynamic executions such as this example. Their direct exhibition history and position within one of the most talked-about Art Basel Miami presentations in recent memory further cement their importance within Slawn’s early market.*

*The work is in hand in the United States and will ship immediately. APC ART is pleased to advise on museum-quality archival shadowbox framing and installation options that preserve the dimensional and sculptural integrity of the pair.*

*An exceptionally scarce and visually commanding Slawn multiple — a museum-caliber artifact from a defining moment in the artist’s career and a compelling blue-chip acquisition for the most advanced contemporary and street art collections.*
