“The printing house is amazing, the history, the different labels, the different production, the machinery is really impressive. I've been screen printing for over 10 years now and I'm really quite naïve to lithography so it was great to talk with your team and to understand how you register the print, to watch the big wheels turning with the paint and paper come out. It's been phenomenal, I'd like to come back and really watch more as well of how the printing process goes. So this has been just fantastic. The smells in here as well, in all the different cabinets, you can just feel the history that goes on and has been going on in this building. So it's really a privilege to be a part of this journey with you guys and the printing house as well. I'm honored to have a print made here. The design and title “Lazy Target" that we chose, I really enjoy the part of the target falling over giving you that effect that there is some depth within the print. There is also a lot of humor in that because as with a target you really try to aim for a specific goal and it's kind of like taking not being so critical, like not trying so hard, it's ok if things maybe don't go correct with aiming for your target. I just really enjoy the shape and graphic design of it as well. I'm really attracted to circles and also all even lines, like black and white, or in this case, colors. This print for me is really fun, I look at it and I smile, it makes me very happy, it's really playful. I love the size of it, it's really graphic, it just stares, and it really comes out on the wall. I really like the colors too : I really like red, white, blue and cream, these are really fun colors to play with. I'm really happy and excited about it." Tavar Zawacki

Presentation
Tavar Zawacki (born 1981) is an American abstract artist based in Berlin, Germany. For twenty years (1996–2016) Tavar Zawacki created and signed all of his artworks with his street artist pseudonym, 'ABOVE'. At the age of 19, Tavar bought a one-way flight from California to Paris, France, bringing with him a backpack full of art supplies, all the money in his bank account ($1,500 USD), and a 'rise above your fears' approach to starting his art career. Starting in Paris in 2000, Tavar transitioned from painting traditional letter style graffiti of A-B-O-V-E, to his 'Above arrow' icon that represented his optimistic mentality to 'rise above fears, challenges, and anything holding you back from your goals.' During a 20-year period, the artworks of ABOVE could be seen in over 100 cities spanning 50 countries around the world.
In January 2017, Tavar Zawacki decided to step out of his self-imposed shadow of anonymity, and start creating, and signing artworks with his real birth name – allowing more freedom of creative exploration, as well as liberation from the arrow icon he has associated himself with. Tavar Zawacki's painting styles with his large scale mural works, as well as his indoor fine art are characterized by the use of hard-edge painting, color field, geometric abstraction, Op art, and Trompe-l'oeil painting styles. Tavar Zawacki has been showcasing his work in galleries and creative institutions around the world since 2005.
