APC ART is pleased to offer our global collector base this absolutely stunning, large–scale work from one of the most important contemporary artists of the 21st century, Marquis Lewis (A/K/A “ RETNA ”).
This screen print, executed in 2014, was released as part of the famed Provocateurs Portfolio . Measuring an impressive 34 x 24 inches (38 x 28 inches framed to museum standards), this edition of 200 is hand–signed by the artist in graphite pencil, lower right. The work has been exquisitely presented in a contemporary white, hand–cut frame with anti–UV glass, a framing choice that not only protects the piece but also elevates its commanding presence.
Executed in Retna’s unmistakable calligraphic script — known as “Margraves,” a secret language that draws inspiration from Hebrew, Arabic, Old English, and Egyptian hieroglyphics — this piece demonstrates the artist’s genius in transforming graffiti–based motifs into high–art, gallery–worthy masterworks. The bold, white script dances against a deep blue field, offering striking contrast, rhythm, and balance. It is a prime example of Retna’s ability to merge the energy of the street with the sophistication of fine art.
Over the past two decades, RETNA has evolved from a street artist in Los Angeles into one of the most influential figures in contemporary art, with works placed in some of the most important private collections worldwide. His impact has bridged cultures and genres, blending graffiti traditions with the visual languages of antiquity, cementing his role as one of the true innovators of his generation. His paintings and editions consistently command strong results in the global secondary market, underscoring their desirability and blue–chip investment potential.
This particular work is in excellent condition and ready for immediate shipment from the United States.
For the discerning collector, this represents not only a visually stunning acquisition but also an unparalleled investment opportunity in the work of one of the most important voices of 21st–century art.
