  • Comment: The most-cited source is "Meet Mister E, Instagram's Newest Art Star". As its title suggests, this is based on an interview. Therefore it's not independent of Mr E.
    There's some promotional language here; as an example, two vapid "iconic"s in a single sentence. Hoary (talk) 22:53, 10 July 2025 (UTC)


Mister E (born 1987) is an American contemporary artist known for his vibrant, large-scale works that explore themes of American culture. His works are held in the collections of Miley Cyrus, Floyd Mayweather, and Adam Sandler, among others.[1]

Career

Notable Events

[edit]

In 2016, Mister E was commissioned by Miley Cyrus to create an interactive "money wall" installation for her Malibu home. The installation, featuring a gold-leafed safe and technicolor currency, allowed guests to contribute signed bills, with proceeds supporting Cyrus's Happy Hippie Foundation. [2]

Since 2017, Mister E's work has been displayed at the New York Stock Exchange's Big Board Art Hall, a gallery curated by trader Peter Tuchman. His pieces, celebrating money's aesthetic rather than critiquing capitalism, resonate with the financial elite.[3]

In 2017, Mister E unveiled "The Silver Factor-E" at the Delano Hotel in South Beach. Paying tribute to Andy Warhol's "Silver Factory Studio" in New York City, an invite-only guest list got a first look at silver aluminum foil covered walls, live models and a collection of Mister E's signature silkscreen $100 bill designs.[4]

In 2021, he teamed with D'Angelico Guitars to create five custom guitars for Dead & Company's tour, benefiting charities like HeadCount and REVERB.[5]

In 2021, Mister E returned to the SCOPE Art Fair for its 20th anniversary. He presented an immersive installation titled "100," designed to transport visitors to "another universe." For Mister E, "100" symbolizes authenticity, wholeness, truth, and reality.[6]
