  • Icarus Democracy Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Shepard Fairey- OBEY Icarus Democracy Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Icarus Democracy 3-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Cream Speckle Tone Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. 2022 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 500 Artwork Size 24x36 "Liberty and equality are principles most people value, but the challenge is to find the proper equilibrium between the two. Democracy is the mechanism our nation has used to balance the freedom and desires of the individual with policies that are fair and beneficial for the collective of society. Democracy requires dedicated maintenance. With the culture of the previous administration and many politicians undermining democracy itself, the folly of over-confidence about the guaranteed endurance of democracy will lead to potential disaster. The threat of fascism is very real. If you value democracy use your voice and your vote. I’d recommend reading Timothy Snyders “On Tyranny” to anyone who does not see the threats to democracy (and the principles it protects) as concerning. This print, “Icarus Democracy,” will also be available in person at Dallas Contemporary." -Shepard Fairey The Icarus Democracy Silkscreen Print is a piece of art created by Shepard Fairey, an American contemporary street artist, graphic designer, and activist. In the Icarus Democracy Silkscreen Print, Fairey uses the myth of Icarus to convey a message about democracy. In Greek mythology, Icarus is a figure who, along with his father Daedalus, escapes imprisonment using wings fashioned from feathers and wax. Despite being warned by his father, Icarus flies too close to the sun, causing the wax in his wings to melt and sending him plummeting into the sea. The story of Icarus is often interpreted as a cautionary tale about hubris and the perils of overconfidence or overreaching. Fairey's print likely uses the Icarus story to comment on the state of democracy, suggesting that democracies can also fall victim to hubris and overconfidence, resulting in negative consequences. Or maybe it's just fearmongering? The piece serves as a reminder of the importance of vigilance in preserving and protecting democratic values and institutions both ironically and literally. The artwork, like many of Fairey's pieces, is created using the silkscreen printing technique. This process involves using a screen to apply ink onto a surface, creating bold, vibrant images. The Icarus Democracy Silkscreen Print showcases Fairey's signature style, characterized by strong lines, bold colors, and iconic imagery, featuring portraiture & symbols that can be easily recognized and interpreted by a wide audience.

Sunset & Sunrise
Graffiti and street art have long been a powerful means of self-expression, conveying social, political, and personal messages through vibrant visuals and thought-provoking symbolism. As one of the most universally admired and recognized natural phenomena, the allure of the sunset and sunrise has found its way into this dynamic and captivating art form. The depiction of these celestial transitions has enriched graffiti and street art prints, offering a multifaceted exploration of the beauty, transience, and significance of life itself. The use of sunset and sunrise imagery in graffiti art and street art prints is as diverse and captivating as the artists behind the work. From intricate, lifelike representations to bold, abstract interpretations, these ephemeral moments of daybreak and twilight are imbued with a range of meanings and symbolism. They can serve as metaphors for new beginnings, evoke feelings of hope and optimism, or symbolize the cyclical nature of existence. The rich color palette that accompanies these phenomena is a playground for artists, allowing them to experiment with various shades of reds, oranges, yellows, purples, and blues to create eye-catching, emotive masterpieces. The juxtaposition of natural beauty and urban landscapes is a common theme in graffiti and street art prints that incorporate sunset and sunrise imagery. This contrast serves to remind the viewer of the relationship between humanity and the environment, as well as the delicate balance that exists between the natural world and the spaces we inhabit. The illumination of city skylines, abandoned buildings, or bustling streets with the soft, warm hues of the setting or rising sun can evoke a sense of nostalgia, inviting the viewer to contemplate the passage of time and the fleeting nature of our experiences. Another intriguing aspect of sunset and sunrise imagery in graffiti and street art prints is the unique opportunity it provides for artists to explore different techniques and styles. Stencil art, for example, lends itself well to capturing the distinct silhouettes of buildings, trees, and other elements within an urban or natural landscape, while the radiant hues of sunsets and sunrises can be artfully incorporated using spray paint, brushstrokes, or even digital manipulation. In this way, artists can experiment with various mediums, textures, and techniques to develop their distinctive voice and style. One cannot discuss the prominence of sunset and sunrise imagery in graffiti and street art prints without acknowledging the impact of internationally renowned artists who have championed this theme. Artists such as Banksy, Shepard Fairey, and Blu, among others, have utilized the striking visual elements of sunsets and sunrises to create memorable and evocative works. These artists, along with countless others, have inspired a new generation of street artists to embrace and reinterpret the imagery of these celestial events, ensuring their continued prominence within the art form. The inclusion of sunset and sunrise imagery in graffiti and street art prints offers a versatile and impactful way for artists to explore themes of beauty, transience, hope, and the interplay between humanity and the natural world. Through the unique lens of these art forms, the powerful symbolism and emotive qualities of sunsets and sunrises can be celebrated and reimagined, capturing the imagination and inspiring reflection in all who encounter these captivating works of art.
