{"product_id":"benny-the-kid-leone","title":"Benny The Kid - Flaming Lion","description":"\u003cp\u003e The work draws on a pop aesthetic in the sense of its use of popular media language. In this case, the style of this piece can be traced back to the street art subculture and various forms of urban art involving spray paint, stickers, or stencils. Street art, generally associated with punk or hip-hop music, is often seen as a means of protest against consumerist society or the rights denied to minorities. Thus, a double bond is established, typical of pop aesthetics, which consists of elevating a product of popular culture to the rank of a true work of art and, at the same time, transforming the artwork into something absolutely simple and immediate, such as the language of graffiti.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eAlso renowned as a French street artist, in this work Benny the Kid demonstrates a remarkable pictorial sensibility, simultaneously inspired by pop and expressionist art. The connection to urban and graffiti culture remains inextricably linked, in the rebellious, ironic, and irreverent spirit and direct language that underpin this work. Formally, however, the use of spray paint results in a decidedly painterly gesture, demonstrating a strong connection to expressionist and abstract movements. Above all, the space of the work is shaped by a gestural expression inspired by informal aesthetics. The chromatic effect achieved by the intense light of the lion figure is particularly striking, as it appears to emerge from a tongue of fire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eBenny the Kid is a French artist whose paintings have been exhibited nationally, as well as in Germany, the United States, and Spain. With a background in street art, he describes his works as \"sounding boards.\" Drawing on current events, Benny the Kid seeks to highlight or condemn the world we live in, often with a provocative sense of humor. He creates using stencils and spray paint, acrylics, watercolors, and collage on metal or paper.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Andrea Premoli","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218080739714,"sku":"apre004","price":750.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/BENNY-THE-KID-PREMOLI-1.jpg?v=1768470954","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/benny-the-kid-leone","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
