Le Youn (XX) - Dark Vador Gun· XXL

In this striking work by Le YOUN, Dark Vador, an iconic figure of power and authority, breaks the fourth wall by pointing his weapon directly at the viewer. The fauve background, rhythmically dotted with black and white patches, creates a visual tension between chaos and control. True to his pop art style, Le YOUN merges geek culture with a subversive message to provoke, challenge, and captivate.

Please note that this artwork is of an exceptional size, which makes its shipping a logistical challenge and may incur very high shipping costs. Therefore, it will be shipped disassembled from its frame and carefully rolled in a cardboard tube; you will also receive the frame and the American box separately. To reassemble and display it, plan for a cost of €60 with a framer of your choice.

Unique 1/1 work, it will be provided with a certificate of authenticity as well as a gallery invoice.
Le XVI Art Gallery, located at 16 place des Vosges in Paris, commits to shipping the canvas under the best conditions and within the shortest possible timeframe, both in Metropolitan France and abroad.
