About the artwork

Cette sérigraphie sur papier vélin représente le personnage de Snoopy de la bande dessinée Peanuts de Charles M. Schulz,dépeint dans un style simplifié et graphique. Snoopy est montré assis,absorbé par la lecture d'un morceau de papier,tandis que derrière lui,un mur ou un arrière-plan est couvert de divers textes et formes griffonnés,mis en évidence par un jaune vif. Au-dessus de Snoopy,à l'intérieur de la bordure noire,la phrase « THEY SAY RAP'S CHANGED.. » est affichée en lettres capitales.

Expert opinion

L'œuvre se positionne dans le paysage de l'art contemporain par son appropriation d'images de la culture populaire,une pratique courante dans les mouvements Pop Art et Street Art. L'utilisation de Snoopy,un personnage de dessin animé reconnu mondialement,permet à l'artiste d'interagir avec un large public tout en apportant un commentaire sur les évolutions culturelles,dans ce cas précis,liées à la musique.
