David Choe: A Maverick of Urban Expressionism
An American Visionary
Renowned American urban and street artist David Choe stands as a maverick in the realm of urban expressionism. His unbridled approach to art-making, characterized by chaos, impact, and a fusion of diverse styles, has positioned him as a trailblazer in the world of street art.
Title: Untitled
In September 2009, Choe left his indelible mark on the streets of Stavanger, Norway, with an untitled mural that encapsulates the essence of his frenetic artistic spirit.
Location Created: Børehaugen 5, 4006 Stavanger, Norway
Transforming the urban landscape, Choe chose the canvas of Børehaugen 5 in Stavanger to unleash his artistic prowess, inviting viewers into a realm where the figurative and illustrative meet the cartoonish and erotic.
Medium: Spray Paint
Choe’s toolkit is as diverse as his artistic range. Using spray paint, he manipulates the medium with masterful strokes, creating a mural that is simultaneously arresting and mischievous.
Art Genre: Figurative / Graffiti
The mural, embodying the spirit of urban expressionism, transcends conventional genres. Choe seamlessly blends figurative elements with graffiti aesthetics, crafting a unique visual language that speaks to the vibrancy of the streets.
Art Movement: Street Art
At the heart of Choe’s practice lies a deep connection to the street art movement. His work is a testament to the power of art to reclaim and redefine public spaces, injecting them with energy, color, and narrative.
Art Form: Painting on the Urban Canvas
Choe’s chosen art form is not confined to traditional canvases. Walls become his playground, and in the case of Stavanger, a parking lot serves as the backdrop for his artistic expression.

I am a mural enthusiast and a fervent admirer of street art. Rather than creating murals myself, I am passionate about collecting them. My love for street art knows no bounds. I am dedicated to curating and cherishing these artworks that grace the streets. My collection stands as a testament to my profound appreciation for this form of artistic expression.
