Claire Salvo’s dollar bill paintings transform one of the most recognizable symbols of value into fine art. Through meticulous brushwork and a sharp conceptual lens, she redefines the boundaries between currency and culture - turning money itself into a commentary on power, representation, and identity.
Her distinctive practice has earned her a devoted following on social media, with hundreds of thousands of followers and millions of likes.
In her newest Art History series, available exclusively through Guy Hepner, Salvo deepens her exploration of the tension between art and commerce, individuality and institution. The works create a layered dialogue on worth - both economic and human - blending portraiture, symbolism, and art-historical references into compositions that are as intimate as they are widely recognizable.
