Art with a Purpose: The Obey “Open” Drum by Le Bidon Français
Redefine your space with a masterpiece that speaks volumes. The “Make Art Not War” Obey Open Drum is a high-concept creation by the French duo Guillaume & Anthony. This version of their iconic 58-gallon sculpture features a removable lid or open-top design, allowing you to utilize the interior of the drum for storage. It is the perfect fusion of Shepard Fairey’s revolutionary street art aesthetic and industrial functionality.
Versatile Storage Meets Street Art Iconography
This is the ultimate “Double-Duty” art piece. While the exterior displays the powerful and intricate “Make Art Not War” floral motif—entirely hand-painted without any adhesives—the interior offers a spacious 58-gallon volume. Use it as a clandestine bar, a unique storage chest for blankets, or a striking bin in a high-end creative studio. Its versatility makes it a favorite for North Palm Beach collectors who value smart, avant-garde design.
Uncompromising Craftsmanship (Limited Edition 1/8)
Every Open Drum is meticulously crafted from a brand-new, unused metal container. The hand-applied acrylic finish ensures that the vibrant reds and deep blacks of the Obey tribute remain bold and resilient. Strictly limited to only 8 units worldwide, each piece is signed and numbered, ensuring your acquisition remains a rare and valuable asset in the contemporary art market.
Exclusively available at Art de Vivre Gallery. This piece comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. Elevate your reception area or private lounge with a work that is as practical as it is profound.
