À propos de l'œuvre
“Untitled” by Shame 125 (us) is documented as Aerosol spray paint,acrylic,and markers on a 2012 NYC subway map. It measures 81 × 58 cm. The work uses a New York subway map as its support. A broad band of orange and beige spray paint covers much of the sheet,with a red,silver and black graffiti piece across the upper centre. A circular black field contains a standing figure,while a hand-drawn signature and crew reference appear at lower right. The description follows the supplied main image and is limited to elements that are visible at that scale; it does not assume the presence of reverse inscriptions,labels,certificates or other details unless these are separately recorded in the documentation.
The supplied note records a hand signature or signed component. The catalogue records the work as dating from 2012. No edition is stated,and the work is therefore discussed as an individual object rather than assigned an edition size. The support and technique are particularly important to the object’s reading. Printed areas,marker lines,aerosol passages,collage elements,paint layers,cut edges or three-dimensional components remain visually distinct and allow the construction of the image to be understood. Where the record mentions hand-finishing,signing,numbering or an artist’s proof,these elements should be checked against the corresponding detail photographs during final physical cataloguing. Condition comments are restricted to the supplied note and visible evidence; normal variations associated with handmade,recycled or previously used supports should not automatically be described as damage without direct examination.
Avis de l'expert
From a cataloguing perspective,“Untitled” occupies a position within Contemporary painting and Urban Art. The work’s relevance lies primarily in the relationship between its recorded date,2012,its medium—Aerosol spray paint,acrylic,and markers on a 2012 NYC subway map—and the degree of manual intervention visible in the object. The market category should not be determined by the artist’s name alone: the support,edition structure,signature,date,provenance and condition all materially affect how the work should be compared with other examples.
No edition is recorded. The direct use of paint,marker,collage or constructed material supports cataloguing the piece as a unique or individually executed work,subject to confirmation through the original object and its reverse. A certificate of authenticity is mentioned in the supplied documentation and should remain associated with the work. Any condition assessment should consider the particular support,including deckled paper,recycled cardboard,used currency,vinyl,skateboard wood or unstretched canvas,since these materials may carry intentional or inherent surface characteristics. For an informed assessment,the image should be examined alongside close views of the signature,numbering,reverse inscriptions,publisher or gallery marks and any certificate. The available material is sufficient for a cautious catalogue positioning,but it does not provide verified auction comparisons,institutional exhibition history or market-performance data. No estimate,investment conclusion or claim of rarity is therefore made. The work is best evaluated as a documented object within its specific medium and production context,with emphasis on authenticity,completeness and physical condition.
À propos de l'artiste
SHAME 125, également connu sous le nom de Much 107, est un graffeur originaire de New York. Sa carrière dans le graffiti a débuté vers 1983 sur la ligne 6 du métro, où il peignait aux côtés de Brim, l'un des premiers membres du groupe TAT's (qui deviendra plus tard TATS CRU). SHAME 125 s'est fait connaître pour la netteté de ses lettrages et la qualité de ses personnages. Il était considéré comme un « writer parmi les writers » au sein de la communauté du graffiti, réputé pour sa production prolifique et son style distinctif. Au cours des années 1980, SHAME 125 a collaboré avec d’autres graffeurs de renom tels que Cem, Kenn, T. KID, Bio, Lase et Raz, réalisant de nombreuses œuvres sur des rames de métro qui ont influencé le style de l’époque. Il était un disciple de Skeme et peignait aux côtés de DEZ. Après le début des années 1990, SHAME 125 s’est fait plus discret sur les trains, cessant de peindre dans le métro en 1987, mais il a depuis refait surface, peignant des trains de marchandises et d’autres supports.
