Item Details
Description
FAILE: Size of the Fight, 2017. FAILE. 34 x 24.5". Hand-signed. Offset Lithograph Edition on 215gsm Mohawk Paper. Hand-signed From unumbered edition. The original painting for this print, The Size of the Fight,is included in the Library Street Collective, Detroit, MI (2017). Provenance: Bedford Art Gallery Brooklyn, New York. FAILE, the dynamic artistic collaboration between Patrick McNeil and Patrick Miller, epitomizes the vibrant spirit and cultural tapestry of Brooklyn. With a distinctive style that merges fine art, street art, and popular culture, FAILE's work challenges our perceptions of consumerism, religious traditions, and the urban landscape. Their multimedia installations, large-scale paintings, and sculptures are a patchwork of influences, drawing from a rich array of sources including American quilts, folk art, Native American motifs, religious architecture, comic books, and advertising typography. This eclectic blend forms a visual language that speaks to the complexity of contemporary society. One of FAILE's notable projects was the commission by the New York City Ballet to create an immersive installation at the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts. Their towering masterpiece, the Tower of FAILE, adorned the atrium space, inviting audiences to engage with art in new dimensions. This ambitious project symbolized the fusion of populist imagery with elite cultural institutions, signaling the evolving landscape of art in the digital age. FAILE's international recognition soared with their inclusion in the Tate Modern's groundbreaking Street Art exhibition in 2008. Their monumental contribution, a collage of Native American imagery amidst a fusion of pulp art and urban signage, solidified their place as pioneers in the global street art scene. Over the years, FAILE has continued to captivate audiences with solo exhibitions around the world, from New York to Tel Aviv, Paris to Berlin. Their work transcends borders, resonating with audiences across diverse cultural landscapes while remaining deeply rooted in the gritty authenticity of Brooklyn's streets. As Brooklyn's beloved street artists, FAILE embodies the essence of New York City's cultural ethos, celebrating its diversity, dynamism, and unyielding spirit. Through their art, they invite us to question, explore, and reimagine the world around us. Significant museums exhibitions included, The Brooklyn Museum, NY. The Tate Modern, London, The Dallas Contemporary, and City Lights Millennium Iconoclast Museum of Art Belgium. FAILE has a vast audience of private collectors who appreciate their fine skills in traditional silkscreen printmaking.
