Art Wars

Since 2013 Art Wars has been a force that not even the dark side can control.

British artist and curator Ben Moore first established Art Wars’ home firmly in the London art scene by curating ‘one of the most epic, sell out, star studded group shows of our time’ at London’s Saatchi Gallery during Frieze Week.

20 Artists including Damien Hirst, Mr Brainwash, David Bailey, Alison Jackson, D*Face and Antony Micallef were all given a stormtrooper helmet with the brief to turn ‘The Dark into the Art’. The exhibition was a sell out success and attracted worldwide media attention.

Since then Art Wars has gone international and sold out exhibitions in Miami, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Dubai and Gothenburg whilst all the time adding new artists to the fold including Retna, Anish Kapoor, Lauren Baker, Blek Le Rat, Ben Eine and UnSkilled Worker.

Helmets have sold for as much as $50,000 a piece and the project has made millions in sales and made large donations to its official charity partner Missing People. Art Wars continues to expand in theme and form and evolve into full body suits, paintings and limited edition prints.
