Artwork sold in perfect condition
Artwork location: France
In the 5th century BC, the Roman Empire was at its height. During its many travels, the Roman army discovered skateboarding and began to perfect the art. This ancient engraving bears witness to the centurions' love of skateboarding.
Already equipped with VX1000 cameras at the time, they filmed their moves to immortalize their best tricks.
The work “VX1000 Skateturions” plays with the codes of ancient history and skateboard culture, with humor and anachronism. It imagines a meeting between two seemingly opposing worlds: Roman military rigor and the freedom of skateboarding. Through this quirky wink, she questions the way we mythologize the past and sacralize certain contemporary practices. Subtle details include typical skateboarder postures, equipment revisited in antique style and, of course, the famous VX1000 camera, an icon of 1990s skate videos.
This print edition pays as much tribute to the aesthetics of antique prints as to modern urban culture. It's for fans of contemporary art, skateboarding, reinvented history and those who like to see eras collide with irreverence and creativity.

Presentation
With a board under his feet since he was 14 years old, Romain Hurdequint discovers through skateboarding graphics, a passion for art. In 2011, he decided to document in a blog all the artistic potential that skateboard offers. Ten years later, THE DAILY BOARD is still read by several thousands of visitors every month and has become a reference.
In 2018, Romain undertook the writing of an anthology entitled Skate Art: From the Object to the Artwork, published by Cercle d'Art. This anthology is found distributed all over the world, including in the prestigious museums of New York, the MOMA and the MET.
Committed to democratizing this new art to the general public, Romain organized several exhibitions in Lyon and Bordeaux. First Inking Board, for which he invited tattoo artists to cut the skin to paint on a diptych of skateboards, then Spraying Board, where street art meets skateboard. For both concepts, the entrepreneur provides the mediums with their wall hangings. The whole thing is branded Tigerclaw Supplies, a new brand on the skateboard scene of which he is the co-founder.
Rom av J.C is the artistic alter ego of Romain Hurdequint.
Armed with spray cans, acrylic, Posca or clay, he reinvents the representations of ancient leisure activities. Placing the skateboard at the heart of gladiatorial combat or the first events of the Olympic Games, the artist rewrites the history of this discipline. Shaped like jars with Greco-Roman motifs, the boards bear witness to the practice of skateboarding at a time when the city of Lyon was known as Lugdunum.
