    Shepard Fairey- OBEY Idiocracy Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Idiocracy Limited Edition 4-Color Hand-Pulled Silkscreen Print on Fine Art Paper by Shepard Fairey, Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2016 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 550 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print "I’ve always felt that art, entertainment, and humor can be the best delivery vehicles for social commentary, so I love the way humor is used in “Idiocracy” to make the social critique more digestible. The movie is a harsh but necessary indictment of the anti-intellectual culture and politics that seem to become the norm more and more everyday. The film is great in a cautionary way and has an enjoyable irony being a somewhat low-brow piece of entertainment about the perils of succumbing to a cultural rejection of anything intellectual or high-brow. In other words, the genius of the film is that it may actually get through to the audience it should reach, rather than just preaching to the intellectual elite" -Shepard Fairey- OBEY Shepard Fairey's "Idiocracy" limited edition print encapsulates the convergence of pop culture and social critique through the lens of contemporary art. Renowned for his subversive street art and graphic designs, Fairey extends his canvas to fine art paper in this 2016 artwork, limited to 550 signed and numbered pieces. The 18x24 silkscreen print features a four-color palette and is a tangible expression of Fairey’s dedication to using art as a medium for commentary on societal issues. Drawing inspiration from Mike Judge's satirical film "Idiocracy," Fairey's print is not only a visual tribute but also a critique of the film’s themes—depicting the troubling rise of anti-intellectualism and the cultural dismissal of enlightenment and sophistication. Fairey himself praises the film's use of humor to present its social criticism in a more palatable form, creating a space for reflection rather than alienation. His artwork captures the film’s ironic humor, using a brain under the guise of a vending machine product—emblematic of commodification and the oversimplification of complex ideas. This print, like many of Fairey’s works, is imbued with a sense of urgency and a call to awareness. It encapsulates the artist's view that the realms of art, humor, and entertainment can effectively intersect to deliver powerful messages about the current state of society. Fairey’s "Idiocracy" is not merely a piece to be admired for its aesthetic appeal, but a statement piece that encapsulates the pressing cultural narrative around the value of intelligence and the dangers of its rejection in public discourse. The visual elements of the print—the juxtaposition of a brain with a hand grenade, the stark and commanding typography, and the bold colors—are characteristic of Fairey's style. They are employed here not only to draw the eye but also to provoke thought, embodying the essence of graffiti and street art as tools for social engagement. In a culture increasingly leaning towards anti-intellectual sentiment, Fairey’s "Idiocracy" stands as a critical beacon in modern pop art, reminding viewers of the power of art as a reflective and transformative force.

The monochromatic scheme, punctuated by the gold foil, gives "Verdant" a sense of timelessness, as if the piece could belong to any era yet is unmistakably modern.

  • Idiocracy AP Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Shepard Fairey- OBEY Idiocracy AP Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Idiocracy AP Artist Proof Limited Edition 4-Color Hand-Pulled Silkscreen Print on Fine Art Paper by Shepard Fairey, Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. AP Artist Proof 2016 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 550 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print "I’ve always felt that art, entertainment, and humor can be the best delivery vehicles for social commentary, so I love the way humor is used in “Idiocracy” to make the social critique more digestible. The movie is a harsh but necessary indictment of the anti-intellectual culture and politics that seem to become the norm more and more everyday.

In other words, the genius of the film is that it may actually get through to the audience it should reach, rather than just preaching to the intellectual elite" -Shepard Fairey- OBEY The "Idiocracy" AP (Artist Proof) silkscreen print by Shepard Fairey is a thought-provoking piece, symbolizing a potent blend of street art ingenuity with biting social commentary. Released as a limited edition in 2016, each piece in the series of 550 is hand-signed and numbered, affirming its exclusivity and value in the art community. Measuring 18x24 inches, this work is meticulously crafted through a 4-color hand-pulled silkscreen process onto fine art paper, a testament to Fairey’s dedication to quality and detail. Shepard Fairey, a trailblazer in the modern pop and street art scene, often infuses his work with social and political subtext. His "Idiocracy" print draws from the satirical film of the same name, utilizing its thematic core as a springboard for his own artistic expression. The movie's critique of a society in intellectual decline resonates with Fairey's own observations of contemporary culture, where anti-intellectualism is increasingly mainstream. Fairey's print channels the film’s irony, using the medium of pop art to comment on the potential dangers of a society that devalues knowledge and critical thinking. Fairey acknowledges the power of art, humor, and entertainment as catalysts for discussion and reflection on societal norms. By embedding these elements into his "Idiocracy" print, he not only captures the essence of the film's warning but also amplifies its message through his unique artistic lens. The print, which features the movie’s signature branding "Brawndo" and the tagline "It's got electrolytes!", satirically suggests that the brain craves not intellectual stimulation but rather a fictional beverage. This piece stands as a cultural artifact within the sphere of graffiti art, encapsulating the genre's inherent confrontation with social issues. Shepard Fairey's work is often characterized by its ability to transcend the boundaries of traditional art spaces, engaging with the public in environments that are unconventional yet visually impactful. The "Idiocracy" AP print continues this trend, marrying the rebellious spirit of street art with the evocative power of cinema to challenge viewers to consider the trajectory of cultural evolution.

  • Wolf Mandala Silkscreen Print by Chris Saunders

    Chris Saunders Wolf Mandala Silkscreen Print by Chris Saunders

    Wolf Mandala Limited Edition 3-Color Hand-Pulled Silkscreen Print with UV Clear Layer on 90lb Black Licorice Fine Art Paper by Chris Saunders Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2016 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 75 Artwork Size 24x24 "This piece was sold to a good friend of mine last year, which began as a custom commission that evolved over time. There are lots of sacred symbols that are in this piece that was created with the intention to protect the space that it is hung in. During the time I was experiencing some internal shifts that inspired me to create a piece that served as a protective guardian and the Wolf Archetype strongly embodied that quality. The Wolf Archetype to me resembles a symbol of intelligence as well as a fierce guardian. My work is about creating a reflective mirror that allows the viewer to see within themselves and evoke positive internal shifts. I’ve been exploring combining archetypal symbols with Mandalas that serve as symbols of strength to protect the space they are in as well as remind the viewer of their own internal strength and power." - Chris Saunders

    Cleon Peterson Marchers White Silkscreen Print by Cleon Peterson

    Marchers White Silkscreen Print by Cleon Peterson 2 Color Hand-Pulled on Deckled Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. 2016 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 125 Artwork Size 13x34 Silkscreen Print of Tribal Men Carrying Bloody Swords Marching In Line. "Marchers White" stands as a testament to the intersection of pop art and street art, encapsulated in the powerful medium of silkscreen printing. Cleon Peterson, the artist behind this captivating piece, introduces a stark, almost confrontational narrative to the world of contemporary art. Dated to 2016, the work highlights a row of tribal men, each gripping a blood-streaked sword, marching in an unbroken line. Their imposing silhouettes, juxtaposed against the unforgiving black backdrop, become symbolic of unity, resistance, and perhaps even revolt. Hand-pulled on deckled fine art paper, the tactile experience of the piece amplifies the already potent visual impact. This technique, representative of Peterson's commitment to craft, harks back to traditional printing methods, uniting the old with the present in a seamless fashion. Each print in this limited series of 125 carries Peterson's signature, an assurance of authenticity and the artist's personal touch. Despite its seeming simplicity, the artwork is laden with symbolism. The choice of tribal men evokes primitive energies, raw emotions, and unyielding convictions. Their bloodied swords, meanwhile, invite speculation. Are they victims or victors? Oppressed or oppressors? Peterson leaves this open-ended, allowing viewers to craft their narratives or confront their biases. As a beacon in the world of pop and street art, "Marchers Black" is more than just an artwork; it's a conversation, a critique, and a reflection of society's ever-evolving dynamics.

Gold Graffiti Street Pop Artwork

The Significance of Gold in Street Pop Art and Graffiti

In the realms of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork, the color gold carries a significant weight beyond its shimmering aesthetic. Gold is a color that historically symbolizes wealth, power, and status; when used in the context of street art, it often takes on new and subversive meanings. This precious metal hue in street art can be an ironic commentary on materialism or a tool to bring a sense of the sacred to the mundane urban landscape. When street artists use gold, they are engaging in a visual dialogue with the viewer, one that often speaks to value, worth, and what society holds dear. The application of gold color in graffiti and street pop art can be transformative, turning a simple wall into a canvas that communicates opulence and prestige. It's a strategic choice that can elevate the perceived value of the artwork and create a stark contrast with the often raw and industrial urban settings where such art is found. The use of gold is not merely aesthetic but strategic, providing a visual punch that demands attention and commands respect. This is especially pertinent in pop art, where the color gold can serve as a critical tool, questioning the commodification of culture and art itself.

Gold in the Evolution of Street and Pop Art

As Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork continue to evolve, the color gold remains a potent symbol within these genres. Its use is a nod to the historical significance of art and wealth, yet in the hands of contemporary artists, it becomes a means of challenging the very notions it represents. By incorporating gold into their works, artists can bridge the gap between street art's traditionally subversive nature and the historically elitist connotations of gold. This juxtaposition is compelling and complex, offering layers of meaning to those who encounter it. Moreover, gold in street art and graffiti can serve as a beacon of light within the urban environment, often bringing warmth and a sense of awe to otherwise overlooked spaces. This can have the effect of uplifting an area, providing a sense of unexpected beauty and wonder. In pop art, where the line between high art and commercialism is constantly explored and often blurred, gold can be a cheeky reference or a bold statement about the nature of art in a capitalist society. The color gold stands out in the spectrum of colors used in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork for its historical and cultural resonance. Its use by street artists and pop artists alike is a testament to their understanding of the power of color not just to beautify but to provoke thought and inspire action. Gold, with its rich and multifaceted symbolism, remains a color of choice for artists who wish to make a statement that is both visually captivating and intellectually stimulating.
