Sax Berlin
"SAMO In Shades" Contemporary Homage to Basquiat by Sax Berlin

2018

About the Item

Brassai many years before the street art revolution said in 1933 that "it's authority is absolute. The art of the streets............. so ephemeral that it is easily obliterated........... offers a criterion of worth". Sax Berlin realises that fragility and has brought the street to the canvas. SAMO in Shades is a statement piece attesting to the longevity and ultimate value of preserving the tradition while expanding upon it. Oil and acrylic on canvas.
