AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
For this artwork, only second-hand teddy bears have been used, sourced from flea markets or rescued from the trash and immortalized in this way. The piece is sold worldwide to art collectors and galleries, but the bear also frequently appears in various forms on the street. (See photos).
The original teddy bear is dipped in cobalt blue ink and then pressed entirely onto museum paper.
Technique: Cobalt blue acrylic, 240 gram acid-free pressed paper
Including: Artist Certificate of Authenticity
Delivery: Worldwide shipping within 48 hours, rolled in a cylinder.
Edition: UNIQUE (number 104-1-4) signed on the front.
The numbering indicates which unique teddy bear this is (in this case bear 104) and which unique print of that bear was produced: one of the four original works printed of this bear.
Michiel Folkers, better known as Gieler (1982), began in the late nineties as a graffiti artist in Amsterdam. He now works in his studio, but the rawness of the street remains visible in his art. His work travels around the world and can be seen in galleries from Zurich to New York. Especially in the United States, his work has become incredibly popular in recent years, and he hangs on the walls of several celebrities.
Seller's Story
Michiel Folkers is a mixed media artist living and working in Amsterdam. Selling his work all over the world and exposing in galleries from Zurich to New York. He is best known for his layered artworks, large canvasses, in which he blend colorful streetposters together with spray paint and acrylics. He is pulling and collecting these streetposters himself for every individual artwork and is using this as base for all his pieces. On top of these layered backgrounds he paints, screenprint or paste recognizable themes for example comics or celebs (from now or the past) but also large abstract paintings. Always important the background doesn't get lost but entangles with the subject. Every piece is unique and looks like a brick of wall that you want to hang in your home. Every piece is finished with a strong and shiny lacquer layer.
All artworks are ready to hang, will be shipped fast, in high secure wooden crates, together with a Certificate of Authencity.
