*APC ART is proud to present “Slawn’s Mona Lisa” (Mertra x Slawn VIP Pop-Up Print) — one of the rarest and most culturally significant prints ever released by Slawn.*

**THIS WORK WAS ONLY AVAILABLE IN PERSON AT SAATCHI YATES IN GREAT BRITAIN!**

*This work is from an incredibly small edition of 50 (unnumbered) works.

*Slawn has firmly established himself as one of the most dominant and disruptive forces in contemporary art. From his explosive debut at Saatchi Yates to his takeover moments across London — including the now legendary Piccadilly Lights display — Slawn’s meteoric rise has redefined what it means to be a young, globally recognized contemporary artist. His work sits at the intersection of fine art, fashion, music, and street culture, earning him a cult-like following among collectors, celebrities, and institutions worldwide.*

*This particular work — Slawn’s irreverent reinterpretation of the Mona Lisa — encapsulates everything that has propelled him to the top of the contemporary art world. Instantly recognizable yet radically transformed, the composition merges classical art history with Slawn’s unmistakable visual language. The iconic yellow “X” motif obscures the eyes, while exaggerated facial features, dripping lines, and bold color blocking inject the piece with tension, satire, and unmistakable street grit.*

*Executed as an archival pigment print in colors on Hahnemühle fine art paper, this work was released exclusively during the Slawn x Mertra VIP pop-up on January 31, 2026. The edition is unnumbered and limited to only 250 works — an extraordinarily small release by Slawn standards — and these were available only briefly before selling out immediately.*

*Importantly, these are widely regarded as the rarest prints Slawn has ever released. They were not broadly distributed, not made widely available online, and have surfaced only sparingly on the secondary market. At the time of this listing, this is the only example publicly advertised for sale — making it a highly strategic acquisition for any serious Slawn collector.*

*The Mertra collaboration itself marks a key cultural moment in Slawn’s career — blending art, fashion, and pop culture in a way that reflects the artist’s growing global influence. As Slawn continues to ascend and his primary market tightens, early, culturally pivotal print releases such as this are expected to become increasingly difficult to obtain.*

*The yellow Mertra logo stamp signature at the lower right further authenticates the collaboration and adds a distinct design element that sets this release apart from traditional signed editions.*

*From an investment perspective, scarcity drives demand — and with only 250 unnumbered works produced and virtually none circulating, this print represents a compelling opportunity. As Slawn’s institutional footprint expands and his larger works continue to command increasingly significant prices, early and rare print releases are positioned to follow suit.*

*The work is in hand in the United States and will ship immediately.*

*We are pleased to offer archival framing options to ensure museum-level presentation and long-term preservation.*

*This is an exceptional opportunity to acquire one of Slawn’s most culturally relevant and difficult-to-source releases before they become virtually impossible to secure.*

*OFFERED EXCLUSIVELY BY APC ART* 
*MIA. ATL. NYC. LA. LONDON. PARIS. TOKYO.*
