Open Minds 4-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Cream Speckletone Art Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. Signed & Numbered Screen Print OPEN MINDS 36 inches by 24 inches Edition of 675 February 3, 2022 Handling Creases to Bottom Left & Right Margins. This “Open Minds” print references the language used by the powerful fuel industry lobby to soften political and public resistance to fracking. Fracking is a form of gas extraction which beyond the carbon impact of the gas itself, contaminates groundwater, pollutes the air, and creates strains on water resources because of the high volume of water required for the fracking process. Open-mindedness about any of those detrimental impacts of fracking and other fossil fuel extraction is absurd if one cares about the environment, air and water quality, and global warming. Powerful corporations and their lobbyists spend exorbitant sums to distract from and discredit the science-based conversation about the environment. I’m all for open minds and open eyes when it comes to putting science and the welfare of the planet before corporate profits. A portion of the proceeds from this print will benefit Greenpeace to support its work to enhance environmental protections and combat climate change. – Shepard

Swan Song Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled 4-Color on Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. 2023 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 550 Size 36x24 Silkscreen Print The Swan Song print is a depiction of the precarious state of nature's delicate balance, with numerous species declining, eco-systems teetering on the brink of collapse, and climate scientists warning that time is running out to avert environmental consequences that could render zones inhabitable for millions. While certain groups may suffer more than others, this issue is universal as we all have an impact on both the problems and solutions. Unfortunately, the conscientious habits of individuals alone are insufficient to solve the problem. Unless corporations are pressured and regulated, they will continue to prioritize profits over the planet's health. The piece contains a news clipping revealing that Exxon-Mobile has known for over 40 years, based on their own internal scientific research, that burning fossil fuels is causing global warming, yet they concealed this information and publicly denied the impact of fossil fuels on climate change. A portion of the print's proceeds will be donated to Greenpeace USA to support their efforts to combat climate change. The Speckletone paper used in the print is made from recycled materials. Thank you for your concern.

Only The Finest Poison Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled on Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. 2023 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 550 Artwork Size 24x24 Silkscreen Print "This “Only the Finest Poison” print is a critique of the many methods the oil industries use to maintain business as usual, including deceptive marketing, bribing politicians, discrediting science, and concealing the truth. The news clipping included in the piece is a portion of an article revealing that ExxonMobile has known, based on their internal scientific research, for over 40 years that burning fossil fuels is warming the planet. Yet, they hid the research and publicly denied the impact of fossil fuels on climate change. It is challenging to break through the formidable layers of deterrence put in place by the powerful corporations who put profits before people and the planet, but breaking through is essential to a healthy future. A portion of proceeds from this print will benefit Greenpeace USA to support their work to fight climate change. Thanks for caring. The speckletone paper used in this print is composed of recycled material." -Shepard Fairey "Only the Finest Poison" is an exceptional work of art by Shepard Fairey, a renowned figure in the pop and street art scene. Released in 2023, this silkscreen print showcases Fairey's adeptness in merging provocative political commentary with visually compelling artistry. Limited to an edition of 550, each piece is hand-pulled on Speckletone Fine Art Paper, a unique medium composed of recycled material, further emphasizing the artist's commitment to environmental responsibility. The artwork stands as a stark critique of the global oil industry and its harmful practices. Fairey powerfully employs the use of imagery and text to shed light on the industry's egregious actions—distorting facts, undermining science, bribing political figures, and prioritizing profit over the planet's wellbeing. A crucial element of the piece is the inclusion of a news clipping, a snip from an exposé revealing ExxonMobile's long-concealed knowledge of the detrimental climate effects of burning fossil fuels. Fairey's print is an example of how art can serve as a powerful medium for social and political critique, calling viewers to contemplate the issues presented and challenging them to take action. Echoing the urgent need for change, Fairey's print not only criticizes the oil industry but also extends a helping hand towards environmental causes. A percentage of the proceeds from the sale of this print is donated to Greenpeace USA, an organization known for its relentless fight against climate change. This brilliant artwork, in its thematic exploration and socio-political impact, is a testament to Fairey's role as a critical commentator in the realm of street and pop art.

Endless Power Petrol Palace (Blue) 18 x 24 inches Edition of 350 June 13, 2019 "The “Endless Power Petrol Palace” poster is both a celebration and critique of the seductive graphic propaganda used for the petroleum industry.

Though oil is finite, our reliance on it is so extreme that the power wielded by those who control oil is virtually unlimited." -Shepard Fairey

Moon Over Biloxi- White 1-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Fine Art Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art Famous Pop Artwork Artist. White Variant Signed & Numbered Moon Over Biloxi Screen Print 18 x 24 inches Edition of 200 July 27, 2010. "The title of this print “Moon Over Biloxi” is a tribute to the Dead Kennedy’s song “Moon Over Marin”. In 1984 I picked up maybe my 4th punk record which was the 2nd Dead Kennedy’s album “Plastic Surgery Disasters”. The album is a great listen all the way through and includes some blistering tunes like “Riot” and “Bleed For Me” laced with social commentary. The surprise song though is “Moon Over Marin”… detractors have called it the Dead Kennedy’s “U2” song, but I disagree. “Moon Over Marin” is more melodic than most DK, but juxtaposed with the darkness of the lyrics, the song evokes a powerful sense of existential melancholy. I think the concept that struck me, and stuck with me, is that our disrespect of each other and the planet may doom us, but things will continue without us. I think it is healthy to recognize impermanence, but also to appreciate the value of the ephemeral. Moonlight, real or electric, will probably be around, but what it will be casting light on is the real question. There will always be a moon over Biloxi." -Shepard

In the vibrant landscape of modern pop art, the "Old 500 Dollar Bill- Red Limited Edition" emerges as a symbolic piece by Steve Kaufman, also known by his initials SAK. Kaufman, a distinguished figure in the street pop art scene, brings together the legacy of traditional Americana with the dynamic essence of graffiti artwork. This limited edition canvas is a hand-embellished oil paint HPM silkscreen print that radiates the artist's penchant for bold colors and impactful imagery.

By reimagining currency, a common element of pop art's critique of consumerism, Kaufman's piece speaks to the transformative power of art over the mundane.

It's an artwork that encapsulates the spirit of its time, reflecting on the value and symbolism of money through the lens of an artist who is equally comfortable with a spray can as with a paintbrush.

Unsinkable Consumption AP Artist Proof Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. AP Artist Proof 2015 Signed & Marked AP Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print. Sinking Titanic Style Cruise Liner Ship Sinking Cause of "Oil." Shepard Fairey Danger No Smoking AP 2016 Silkscreen Print Shepard Fairey, born Frank Shepard Fairey in the United States, created Danger No Smoking in 2016 as part of his long running engagement with environmental and public health themes within Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. This Artist Proof edition is signed and marked AP, identifying it as part of a smaller subset outside the standard numbered run and closely tied to the artist’s archive. The hand pulled silkscreen measures 18 x 24 inches and is printed on cream Speckletone fine art paper, a textured stock frequently used in Obey releases for its archival durability and vintage tone. Fairey has stated that the image is inspired by a screen print he created in 1990, the first work in which he directly addressed the environmental and health hazards of gasoline, making this 2016 edition both a continuation and a reflection on decades of thematic exploration. Environmental Symbolism and Vintage Industrial Aesthetic The composition depicts a vintage lead fuel gas pump rendered in a cool blue monochromatic palette, with bold signage reading Contains Lead and Danger No Smoking. The peeling paint on the pump forms a skull like shape, a detail Fairey observed in a photograph taken in Providence, Rhode Island near a graveyard, reinforcing themes of mortality and toxicity. The strong vertical structure of the pump, combined with the stark typography and high contrast shadows, evokes early industrial warning signage while aligning with the graphic clarity associated with Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. The restrained color scheme intensifies the mood, allowing the skull imagery and cautionary text to dominate without distraction. Artist Proof Editions and Environmental Commentary in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Artist Proof prints are traditionally produced in limited quantities separate from the main edition and often represent impressions reserved for the artist. Within Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, AP markings underscore authenticity, scarcity, and direct artist involvement in the printmaking process. Danger No Smoking demonstrates how Fairey merges documentary photography, graphic reduction, and propaganda influenced layout to communicate urgent environmental concerns. By transforming a weathered gas pump into a symbolic warning, this 2016 silkscreen reinforces Fairey’s consistent commitment to ecological awareness through bold visual storytelling grounded in the traditions of contemporary Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork.

Mme Roland in the Prison of Pelage Original One of a Kind Mixed Media & Oil Painting Artwork on Canvas by Modern Pop Dystopian Artist Adam Caldwell. 2022 Signed 11x14 Oil Mixed Media on Canvas Original Painting Ready to Hang Artwork. Adam Caldwell's "Mme Roland in the Prison of Pelage": A Fusion of Historical Narratives and Contemporary Art Adam Caldwell's original painting, "Mme Roland in the Prison of Pelage," is a poignant representation of his unique ability to intertwine historical narratives with the contemporary visual language of pop dystopian art. This 2022 signed Artwork, an 11x14 oil and mixed media on canvas, exemplifies Caldwell's profound engagement with the past and present, creating a visually striking and emotionally resonant dialogue. His approach to pop, street, and graffiti art transcends conventional boundaries, allowing for a multi-layered exploration of theme and form. The Artwork, ready to hang, presents a haunting image of Mme Roland, a figure from the French Revolution, enveloped in what appears to be a shroud, her gaze obscured yet evocative. Caldwell's use of mixed media enhances the textural depth of the piece, inviting viewers to ponder the interplay between the tangible brushstrokes on canvas and the historical weight of the subject matter. The fragmented and abstracted elements surrounding the central figure reflect the chaos and turmoil of Mme Roland's time. Yet, they resonate with the complexities of the modern era, suggesting parallels between the two. In Caldwell's work, the canvas becomes a site where the lines between street pop art and traditional oil painting blur, creating a space where the echoes of history meet the aesthetics of modern-day graffiti and pop art. The layering of media and imagery in "Mme Roland in the Prison of Pelage" is characteristic of Caldwell's style, which often features a juxtaposition of classical and contemporary elements, hinting at the cyclical nature of societal struggles and the perennial quest for justice and freedom. The painting stands as a testament to the enduring relevance of historical figures and events in the discourse of modern art, particularly within the realms of pop and street art, which have traditionally served as platforms for social commentary and critique. Caldwell's work invites reflection on the lessons of history, the enduring spirit of revolutionary figures, and the role of art as a medium for examining and understanding the human condition. In essence, Adam Caldwell's "Mme Roland in the Prison of Pelage" is more than just a painting; it is a narrative captured in oil and mixed media, a statement on the continuum of history, and a reflection of the power of art to encapsulate both the specific and the universal. Through works like this, Caldwell continues to push the boundaries of what pop art can convey, bridging the gap between the past and the present, the historical and the contemporary, the classical and the street.
