On The Road To Happiness And Success is a screenprint in colours on Somerset Satin wove paper, executed in 2025 by Thierry Noir — the first artist to paint the Berlin Wall and one of the most historically significant figures in the history of street art — signed and numbered in pencil from the edition of 50, published by the artist himself, presented as the full sheet and framed.
Born in Lyon in 1958 and arriving in West Berlin in 1982, Thierry Noir became in 1984 the first artist to paint the Berlin Wall — transforming a structure of state violence and enforced separation into a canvas of color, resistance, and defiant humanity. His signature visual language — large, boldly outlined, chromatically vivid cartoon-like heads, produced with a speed and directness born of working in the open air under the watch of East German border guards — has become one of the most recognizable visual signatures in the entire history of street art, securing his place as a founding figure of the global movement.
At 600 × 1310 mm, On The Road To Happiness And Success is a work of striking panoramic format — its extended horizontal scale allowing Noir's characteristic heads and figures to unfold across the composition with a sense of journey, sequence, and forward momentum entirely appropriate to the title's evocative sense of progress and destiny. The title itself is characteristic of Noir's enduring optimism and the affirmative spirit that has defined his practice since his earliest interventions on the Wall — a conviction that art, freedom, and human resilience ultimately lead somewhere worth arriving. Published by the artist himself and presented as the full sheet, framed, this work carries the direct authority and personal involvement of Noir's own production.
The work is in excellent condition.
