Diego Tirigall
Vincent Van Gogh Skull.

2022

About the Item

"Vincent Van Gogh Skull" is a striking piece from a series that boldly merges historical artistry with contemporary symbolism. Created in 2022, this painting reenvisions the iconic figure of Van Gogh with a blend of past and modern elements. This unique portrayal transforms Van Gogh’s head into a celestial blue skull, while retaining his iconic red beard and the bandage from his famously severed ear, echoing his storied past. The skull is adorned with a captain-style coat, not of a mariner but reminiscent of the postal uniform worn by his friend Joseph Roulin, whom Van Gogh deeply admired and portrayed multiple times. This detail pays homage to the dignity and respect Van Gogh held for Roulin's everyday heroism. The skull is further modernized with numerous gold chains around the neck and a cap marked "Vinny," adding a personal and playful touch. A bubble gum balloon playfully emerges from the mouth, injecting a light-hearted contrast to the somber skull. Dynamic rays emanate from behind the skull, radiating outward and drawing the viewer's focus to Van Gogh's enigmatic visage set against a vibrant backdrop that captures the essence of contemporary street art. "Vincent Van Gogh Skull" not only revisits the legacy of Van Gogh but also dialogues with the vibrant aesthetics of today’s cultural expressions, challenging viewers to consider the intersections of historical influence and current global themes. Dimensions: 100 x 100 cm.

'Rona Wars: Cyberpunk Edition, ' by XVALA, Mixed Media Painting
By XVALA
Located in Oklahoma City, OK
This 61" x 44" mixed media painting by the artist XVALA is from his series 'Pandemic Collection: 6.' The painting was created with iridescent oil stick and spray paint on a screen print of a Star Wars poster. The abstracted "Basquiat-inspired" work depicts a silver robot with red eyes and large white teeth on a purple and blue background with the text 'cyber punk' in red at the bottom of the painting. 2020 twisted human reality in a number of ways no one could ever have predicted. XVALA pays tribute to this by melding the original Star Wars movie poster with the unexpected weirdness of the 21st Century. By combining a classic sci-fi villain with a modern symbol of literal Cyberpunk, XVALA shows the COVID-19 virus aimed straight toward the earth with a mission to destroy it. Exhibited during the Pandemic Paintings exhibition at the Meme Ranch August 7th, 2020. XVALA's art illuminates the hidden fallout spawned from our high tech Internet age. His' Fear Google' campaign exposed the decay of privacy and 'No Delete' used hacked nude celebrity photos to highlight loss of control over personal information. The artist has worked with trash from the homes of Mark Zuckerberg, Steve Jobs, and others, as well as dirt from the graves of George Orwell and Aldous Huxley. The dirt appears in the 'New World Order' collection as part of a pyramidal, 3D printed, living ant farm...
