Medsan presents Hero off ! - Hand signed, a unique 40 × 40 cm original acrylic and mixed media work on stretched canvas, created in 2024 in France, signed on the front and back with a certificate of authenticity, depicting contemporary pop culture and a superhero motif with a smartphone theme in blue, red, black, yellow and white.
Description from the seller
Original work created with acrylic paint, Posca markers, and spray paint. Signed Medsan, an artist known for his subversions of cultural icons and his pop compositions with strong narrative resonance.
In Hero Off, Medsan humorously and lucidly subverts the codes of the contemporary superhero. The character, inspired by comic-book imagery and Japanese pop culture, no longer saves the world: he checks his smartphone. The mask is still there, the armor too, but heroism seems suspended, on pause. The painting plays with contrasts: bold colors, clean lines, asserted graphic energy, facing a frozen posture, almost intimate. The painted slogan — Hero Off — acts as a generational declaration, evoking the fatigue of myths, digital overload, and modern loneliness behind icons. Created in a contemporary pop style with street art and comic-book influences, this work questions our relationship to heroic figures, to image and attention. A painting that is at once playful, critical and decidedly current, conceived as an ironic mirror of our era.
Characteristics of the work:
Signature: Hand-signed by the artist on the front and back of the canvas.
Support: Professional-quality canvas, stretched on a wooden frame, ready to hang.
Edition: One-of-a-kind piece - Dimensions: 40 x 40 cm.
Framing: Artwork delivered without a frame, ready to be framed according to your preferences.
Authenticity: Delivered with a certificate of authenticity signed by the artist.
Shipping: Shipped from France, with careful and secure packaging.
An artists' studio bringing together around a living, plural contemporary creation. Established as a genuine site of artistic production, the studio operates both as a space for collective creation and for individual approaches, depending on the projects and works. Atelier Joconde is also a family venture. Yack, a contemporary figurative painter, develops a narrative and introspective body of work with cinematic and realistic influences. Beside him, Medsan, oriented toward pop art painting, explores color, modern iconography and visual culture. Finally, Neo Pablo pursues a more instinctive approach, blending abstract art, outsider art and figurative abstraction. Each work is conceived, created and supervised within the studio, with a shared artistic standard and an identity of its own for each artist."}
