This breathtaking piece of altered fine art photography showcases the profound conceptual depth of the celebrated Live Forever series by international artistic team Hunter & Gatti (2010–2023). Bridging the Warholian deconstruction of mass image duplication with the visceral, primitive graphic codes of Jean-Michel Basquiat, the masterwork transforms a high-fidelity archival pigment print into a unique standalone original. The prominent countenance of global trendsetter Pharrell Williams is coated under a saturated, flat field of magenta crimson acrylic paint, juxtaposed with energetic charcoal-style outlines and loose white gestures that break against a minimal sky-blue backdrop.
In LIVE FOREVER, the all-new series of acrylic and oil pastel on pigment print, Hunter & Gatti engage with the discursive and artistic discoveries of two major pillars of contemporary art. We find Basquiat’s schematic but deeply striking iconography, together with a Warholian study of the mechanical reproduction of an image, where each singular reproduction is made unique by its intervention in paint.
