Futura 2000 — Signature

Original signature by Futura 2000, made in 2023 directly on a black plastic support and presented in a wooden frame.

Futura 2000, the stage name of Leonard Hilton McGurr, is one of the pioneering and most influential figures in the history of graffiti and New York street art. Active since the 1970s, he stood out for introducing a markedly abstract approach to graffiti, exploring lines, shapes, movement and composition beyond traditional lettering.

In this piece, the signature is the central element. Executed by hand on a black plastic surface, it presents a spontaneous and recognizable graphical gesture, while keeping visible the industrial character of the original support.

The combination of the plastic, the fixing elements, the graphic intervention and the wooden frame transforms an object of industrial nature into a singular item associated with graffiti culture and Futura 2000’s trajectory.

This is a signature piece, not an original painted work by Futura 2000, and its artistic and collectible interest is directly related to the signature performed by the artist.
