  • Power Of Movement Archival Print by Case Maclaim

    Case Maclaim Power Of Movement Archival Print by Case Maclaim

    Power Of Movement Limited Edition Archival Pigment Prints on 310gsm Fine Art Paper by Case Maclaim Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. One of the most poignant aspects common to all of case’s works is the texture of the surfaces he uses. They are painted on a background that is made from pieces of cardboard of various sizes. Most of the cardboard comes from the packaging of the spray paint cans and they are held together with glue, staples and tape. Sometimes bits and pieces of wood are also glued onto the surface, such that a bumpy, one-of-a-kind surface appears. This structure is diametrically opposed to typically overblown, perfectionist images and it gives case’s works their unique character.

    Shepard Fairey- OBEY New Clear Power Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    New Clear Power 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 350 Artwork Size 18x24 "New Clear Power, my first solo art show in Germany (@amuseum_Munich) addresses systems, forms, and notions of power that we must all carefully consider as we pursue our vision for an ideal personal and collective future. In my visual strategy, I choose colors, patterns, and icons that powerfully engage the viewer, and I write the text for my pieces using words that have the power of clear and concise communication. The concept of power is almost always present in my art. Forms of power addressed in the subject matter of New Clear Power include abuse of power, power concentrated under capitalism, renewable power, political power, the power of creativity, power over information, and the power of controlling narrative." -Shepard Fairey "New Clear Power Silkscreen Print" is a work of art by the renowned American street artist Shepard Fairey, also known by his moniker, OBEY. The "New Clear Power Silkscreen Print" is a limited edition artwork created with Fairey's signature silkscreen printing technique. Silkscreen printing, also known as screen printing, is a process that involves applying layers of ink through a mesh screen to create an image on various surfaces. Shepard Fairey frequently uses this method to create his distinctive, bold, and highly detailed artworks. Fairey's work often explores political and social themes, with powerful imagery and messages to provoke thought and discussion. The "New Clear Power Silkscreen Print" incorporates similar themes and is intended to raise awareness about a specific issue or idea. Since the title plays with the words "New Clear Power" (sounds like "Nuclear Power"), it may address topics such as the use of nuclear energy, its potential benefits, and its risks to society and the environment. The artwork probably features Fairey's recognizable style, which typically combines elements of graphic design, illustration, and street art. As with many of Fairey's limited edition prints, the "New Clear Power Silkscreen Print" is highly sought after by art collectors and fans of the artist's work.

  • Don’t Be a MFR AP Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Shepard Fairey- OBEY Don’t Be a MFR AP Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Don't Be a MFR AP Artist Proof Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled 5-Color on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. AP Artist Proof 2015 Signed by Shepard Fairey- OBEY & Numbered Limited Edition of 550 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print. Don't Be A Mother Fucker. Don't Be A MOTHER#*X!! R Respect & Justice. The Provocative Appeal of 'Don't Be a MFR' by Shepard Fairey Shepard Fairey's 'Don't Be a MFR AP' is a bold exemplar in street pop art and graffiti artwork. Fairey, an American artist and provocateur born on February 15, 1970, continues to push the boundaries of art and activism. This particular work, part of an artist-proof (AP) series released in 2015, is characteristic of Fairey's approach to engaging with cultural and societal themes through his art. The hand-pulled 5-color silkscreen print on cream speckle tone paper echoes Fairey's distinctive aesthetic while carrying a strong message of respect and justice. Symbolism and Messaging in 'Don't Be a MFR' The artwork's title, 'Don't Be a MFR,' captures the eye with its intentional censoring, a tactic that allows for a broad interpretation and stirs curiosity. Within the limited edition series of 550, each piece sized at 18x24 inches, Fairey's work resonates with the power of command and the gravity of a public service announcement. The print is decorated with the words' Respect & Justice,' a direct call to action central to much of Fairey's oeuvre. Fairey employs symbols like the skull enveloped in a flower, a duality that speaks to the juxtaposition of life and death, growth and decay, reinforcing the message of the consequences of one's actions. The overall design is reminiscent of emblems and seals, often associated with authority and institutions, which Fairey repurposes to deliver his socio-political commentary. The choice of bold, angular graphics, in conjunction with the roundness of the emblematic seal, displays the tension between disruption and order, a recurrent theme in street pop art. Impact on Street Pop Art and Cultural Discourse The 'Don't Be a MFR' series exemplifies the potential of street pop art to serve as a medium for societal reflection and critique. The use of a public vernacular and the direct address to the viewer exemplify Fairey's commitment to making art accessible and demanding attention. Each print in the series, bearing Fairey's signature, is a testament to the belief that art should not shy away from controversy but rather confront and challenge the viewer. This piece, in particular, adds to the rich tapestry of graffiti artwork that has historically been used to communicate messages to a broad audience, often bypassing traditional media and institutional spaces. Fairey's work is a modern-day manifestation of this tradition, utilizing the urban canvas to prompt a public introspection on issues of respect and justice. The artwork serves not just as a visual spectacle but as a catalyst for conversation and, ideally, for action. Shepard Fairey and the Continuum of Artistic Activism Shepard Fairey's 'Don't Be a MFR' continues the artist's enduring legacy in art and activism. Residing in Los Angeles, California, Fairey remains a significant influence, harnessing the vibrancy of street pop art to voice his dissent and mobilize public sentiment. His work is anchored in the belief that art is a powerful change agent capable of inspiring individuals to think critically about the world around them. This particular silkscreen print carries the OBEY logo, an integral aspect of Fairey's brand, which doubles as a command and a critique of authoritarian tendencies. The artwork's appeal lies in its ability to be aggressive and reflective at once, pushing observers to consider their role in maintaining or disrupting social justice. Fairey's dedication to the intersection of art and societal issues solidifies his position as an artist and a significant cultural instigator in contemporary times.

Arm Hand & Fist
Graffiti and street art have long been a powerful medium of expression, breaking the boundaries of traditional art forms by allowing artists to showcase their talent in urban landscapes. A popular motif seen in graffiti and street art prints is the human hand, fist, and arm. These artistic representations can evoke a myriad of emotions, spark conversations, and be visually captivating. The hand, fist, and arm are often used as symbols of unity, resistance, and empowerment. In graffiti and street art prints, they represent the collective power of the people, defying the forces that seek to oppress and silence them. The clenched fist, in particular, has become an iconic symbol of solidarity, transcending racial, cultural, and geographical boundaries. Artists often incorporate these elements into their work, sometimes in the form of stencils, murals, or wheatpaste prints. One notable example of such representation is the world-famous mural "The Power of a United Fist" painted in the 1980s in a historically significant district of San Francisco. The piece features an enormous fist made up of multiple hands, illustrating the strength of unity in the face of adversity. This mural has since inspired countless other works of street art and has become an integral part of the global movement for social justice. In addition to their symbolic nature, hands, fists, and arms can also bring a sense of dynamism and movement to street art prints. The inherent intricacies of these body parts offer artists a unique opportunity to showcase their skills, as well as to convey emotions, thoughts, or stories. For instance, an outstretched arm reaching for the sky can symbolize aspiration or defiance, while hands touching or interlocking can signify connection and support. Moreover, the art of handstyle, or the technique of creating stylized lettering using one's hands, is a fundamental component of graffiti culture. Derived from calligraphy and sign painting, handstyles are often characterized by fluid lines, varying thicknesses, and elaborate flourishes. In this context, the hand itself becomes an essential tool for creating unique and captivating graffiti prints, often distinguishing one artist from another based on the distinctiveness of their individual style. An interesting aspect of hand, fist, and arm depictions in graffiti art is the fusion of different styles and mediums. Artists may incorporate elements of pop culture, political imagery, or personal experiences to add depth and context to their work. In doing so, they not only capture the essence of a specific moment in time but also invite viewers to explore and interpret the art based on their perspectives. Some notable graffiti artists who have expertly utilized the hand, fist, and arm motif in their work include Shepard Fairey, known for his "Obey Giant" series, and the mysterious British street artist Banksy, who has incorporated these symbols in several of his thought-provoking pieces. Both artists have successfully used these elements to make their work resonate with audiences around the world, while still retaining a sense of authenticity and cultural relevance. The hand, fist, and arm serve as powerful motifs in graffiti and street art prints, symbolizing resistance, unity, and empowerment. The versatility of these elements enables artists to create striking visuals that spark conversations, challenge societal norms, and offer a glimpse into the minds of the creators. As graffiti and street art continue to evolve and expand their reach, we can anticipate that these symbols will remain an integral part of the genre, captivating audiences and inspiring future generations of artists.
