Contemporary artist Zeus merges fine art with a graffiti aesthetic, bringing the two styles into communion for a truly unique body of work. Have experimented with urban art on the streets from a young age, Zeus bring his formal training from Chelsea College of Art to bear on the gritty graffiti styles to dizzying success. Inspired by the 80s urban scene, Zeus is redefining street art as we know it. ‘Streetopoly’ uses the iconic monopoly board to illustrate the state of the contemporary street art world. Each London street has been replaced with urban artists from Zeus himself to Banksy and Shepherd Fairey, while art world events from gallery openings to auctions feature across the board. It’s smart and switched on, an ironic while iconic take on the world from which it has emerged in brilliant meta style.
