THE ARTWORK

Mr. Savethewall - Is This Love? - Polymateric Screenprint

Elegant limited-edition work by Mr. Savethewall, Is This Love? - Polymateric Screenprint represents one of the artist's most iconic subjects.

A masked man holds a sling with which he is about to hurl nothing less than a heart. His figure reminds us a demonstrator and recalls the world of street art and activism, while the heart is a sign of love, a love that can lead to making mistakes and wrong choices.

The black and white coloring elegantly defines every detail of the subject and the bright red of the heart captures the viewer's gaze.

In this work Mr. Savethewall has superimposed several layers obtaining a precious iridescent effect. The screenprint alternates shiny parts to opaque parts.

The work was created in 2020 and is part of a limited edition of 150 pieces, signed and numbered in original. It measures 21x30 cm.

MR. SAVETHEWALL BIOGRAPHY

Pierpaolo Perretta, aka Mr. Savethewall, is an Italian artist from Como. Mr. Savethewall was not immediately born as an artist. In fact, he began his career in a very different world from the artistic one, where he also became an important manager. As time goes by, however, he begins to feel the need for a change, to finally put his great creativity and talent to good use.

In Mr. Savethewall's works, it is clear to perceive an interpretation of today's society in an ironic and critical key. His works indeed present strong, direct and targeted messages. Mr. Savethewall's aim is not only to communicate his personal vision of society to his audience, but also to convey messages that are as clear as they are provocative, prompting the viewer to reflect personally on the world around him and its contradictions. From this comes the use of famous and immediately recognisable images and subjects, to which he also adds texts. In doing so, he not only makes the message even easier to grasp, but also leaves no room for misinterpretation.

THE ICONIC SUBJECT: THE FROG BY MR. SAVETHEWALL

Famous all over the world is Mr. Savethewall's depiction of the well-dressed and elegant contemporary man who, however, has the appearance of a Frog. The artist's aim is to warn of the falsity of the famous fairy tale of the Princess and the Frog: the frog, even if he turns into a prince, is still a frog. The true moral of the tale is therefore that, as the artist himself states, 'a frog, even if well dressed, is and always remains a frog'.
