Anthony Lister - Still Life Crisis
Inspired by the luxury car Lamborghini Gallardo, the bold and controversial Lister Lamborghini is a fusion of high and lowbrow culture. A brooding dark background interspersed with trademark Lister flecks of colour intrigue and reinforces the allure of the Lamborghini. With Lister’s signature appearing on almost every angle, the artist’s dramatic touch is unquestionable both in style and context.

Anthony Lister is an Australian graffiti artist. Born in 1979 in Brisbane, Australia, he studied at the Queensland College of Art. In 2002, he traveled to New York where he was mentored by the painter Max Gimblett. Lister stared painting the streets at the age of 17 and helped pioneer the street art movement in his home city as a teenager. He is considered Australia’s premier street artist.
His scrawling, figurative style employs charcoal, acrylic, spray paint, and oil. Whether it be through his use of bold writing styles or a specific shading and color scheme, Lister’s controversial subject matter and often provocative public declarations often prove to provoke thought and question reality itself while allowing the artworks to remain accessible to the public mind.
One reason Lister’s works of art are so remarkable because he does not limit himself to one theme, but rather takes risks and delves into seemingly disconnected variations in subject matter that allow his works to resonate with his followers. The large images and pronounced techniques utilized by Lister’s works are eye-catching, allowing for a memorable final product for his audience.
