About the artwork

All we have is now,dated 2023,is documented as Acrylic paint,spray paint,stencils,glossy varnish finish on canvas and stretcher frame,measuring 70 × 60 cm. The corresponding main image shows a monochrome central figure with equipment set against an energetic field of fluorescent pink,orange,yellow,turquoise and blue graffiti marks. The composition is organised through the relationship between the central motif and the surrounding field,with the support remaining visibly relevant to the final appearance. Colour,outline,printed information,spray marks,drips,repeated forms or handwritten interventions are described only where they can be seen in the supplied image. The material description indicates that the work was produced through acrylic paint,spray paint,stencils,glossy varnish finish on canvas and stretcher frame. This technique helps explain the distinction between mechanically transferred areas and direct manual intervention,where present. The image supplied is sufficient to describe the overall composition,palette and principal motifs,but it should not be treated as confirmation of details that require a close-up or reverse view. The supplied note records the work as signed,dated,accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. No edition number is recorded in the manifest. Any information concerning the back,labels,stamps,certificate,exact placement of a signature or the physical condition derives from the written documentation rather than from an assumed visual reading. No additional narrative elements have been introduced beyond the visible image and the manifest.

Expert opinion

From a cataloguing perspective,All we have is now is best positioned within graffiti and urban-art practices,particularly the direct use of aerosol,marker and layered graphic gesture. Its assessment should begin with the verified object type: Acrylic paint,spray paint,stencils,glossy varnish finish on canvas and stretcher frame,dated 2023,and an original work or unique object,with no edition statement recorded in the supplied manifest. These factors determine how the work should be compared with other examples. An original drawing,hand-finished proof,prototype,unique variant or sculpture should not be evaluated according to the same criteria as a regular numbered edition,even when the imagery is closely related. The work’s relevance lies in the connection between its physical manufacture and the visual codes of urban culture. Where the support carries pre-existing information,where the surface includes aerosol,marker,drips or hand-applied colour,or where a printed image is individually modified,these characteristics contribute to its specificity. Edition size,numbering,signature and dating are therefore material catalogue points rather than promotional attributes. The note mentions a certificate of authenticity. No separate provenance statement is included in the manifest. Condition should be assessed directly,with particular attention to paper edges,folds,abrasions,mounting,surface cracking,frame contact and any difference between the written dimensions and the object itself. No conclusion regarding price,auction performance,rarity or future value is made from the available documentation.
