Silkscreen in four colours on Arches 300g paper. Hand-signed by the artist. Blek Le Rat’s Le Guerrier – édition spéciale (2020) is a silkscreen print in four colors on Arches 300g paper, exemplifying the artist’s pioneering role in urban art and stencil practice. The composition depicts a black rat standing upright, gripping a rifle that unexpectedly fires a single flower instead of a bullet. This striking juxtaposition of violence and fragility transforms the image into a poetic and political statement. The rat, a recurring symbol in Blek Le Rat’s work, represents marginality, survival, and resistance within urban environments. The stark contrast between the monochrome figure and the delicate yellow flower heightens the tension between destruction and hope, reinforcing the artist’s enduring commentary on conflict and humanity.

What is Street art?
Street Art is artwork created and executed in public spaces, outside of traditional art venues. It gained popularity during the 1980s graffiti art boom and has since evolved into various forms and styles. Common forms of Street Art include pop-up art, sticker art, stencil graffiti, and street installations or sculptures. Terms like guerrilla art, neo-graffiti, post-graffiti, and urban art are often used interchangeably to describe this genre, which challenges conventional ideas about where and how art should be displayed.
