Interpol NYC Calling Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled on White Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. 2019 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 550 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print "Interpol is one of my favorite bands, and I’ve been lucky enough to collaborate with them throughout the years. My first introduction to them was when I stalked them backstage at Coachella and offered to create art for them if they ever needed it… to my surprise, they knew my work already and decided to take me up on my offer. My first project with Interpol was in 2004, when I created art to follow up their debut album, “Antics.” Ten years later, in 2014, I was approached with another opportunity to create a print and paint a mural for their fifth studio album, “El Pintor.” I’m excited to announce that I’ll be releasing a new print that I created in honor of their upcoming show in New York at Madison Square Garden" -Shepard Fairey- OBEY Shepard Fairey's "Interpol NYC Calling" is a silkscreen print that pays homage to the band Interpol, an act close to the artist's heart. Hand-pulled on white speckletone fine art paper, this 2019 limited edition artwork expresses the symbiotic relationship between street pop art and contemporary music culture. Limited to a series of 550 signed and numbered prints, each piece measures 18x24 inches, echoing the vibrancy of both Fairey's visual language and Interpol's sonic identity. Fairey's connection to Interpol began with a backstage meeting at Coachella, and this piece marks a continuity of collaboration that spans over a decade. His admiration for the band's work translated into the creation of art for their 2004 album "Antics" and their fifth studio album "El Pintor" in 2014. The print captures the energy and atmosphere of their anticipated show at Madison Square Garden, encapsulating the essence of the live music experience within the static medium of print. The print is an example of how street pop art and graffiti artwork intersect with other cultural phenomena, bridging the gap between visual art and music. Fairey's iconic style, characterized by bold lines, a striking color palette, and politically charged imagery, is evident in this print. The central image of the broadcasting tower, surrounded by hypnotic swirls, conveys a sense of communication and dissemination, themes that are recurrent in both Fairey's artwork and Interpol's music. This piece is not just a collectible for fans but a visual dialogue that extends Fairey's exploration of art as a tool for engagement and influence within the urban landscape.

Sadistic Dog Walker- Red 2-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Fine Speckletone Art Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. 2021 Signed & Numbered Screen Print SADISTIC DOG WALKER (RED) 24 inches by 33 inches Edition of 450 November 15, 2021 I’ve made several images over the years addressing police brutality, and I think humor and absurdity help make such a heavy topic more digestible. There is a violent history of police dogs being used to attack civil rights protesters, which contrasts intensely with the blissful perspective of white dog owners who pamper their dogs and hire dog walkers. Some of us never have to think about how the police abuse their power more frequently in non-white and lower-income communities. This “Sadistic Dog Walker” image encourages us to be aware of the “two Americas.” – Shepard

The Lonesome Crowded West Apt Block Modest Mouse Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled 5-Color on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. 2022 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 825 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print Apartment Block Urban City Building Stylized. "I’m really happy that Modest Mouse asked me to create some limited edition posters for their tour commemorating the 25th anniversary of their 1997 album The Lonesome Crowded West. I first heard Modest Mouse in 1998. I borrowed a friend’s copy of the album The Lonesome Crowded West, which had come out the year before, and it grew on me quickly to become a favorite. The whole album is great, very multi-dimensional ranging from aggressive and dissonant on songs like “Teeth Like God’s Shoeshine” to folky, jangly, and intimate on “Trailer Trash.” My two favorite songs on The Lonesome Crowded West are “Doin’ the Cockroach,” which builds steadily into an exhilarating staccato guitar frenzy, and the song that follows it, “Cowboy Dan,” which is full of tension, struggle, anger, and beauty. Lyrically, the band’s singer and primary songwriter, Isaac Brock, comes across as an empathetic world-weary sage. I rarely call someone a poet, but Isaac wrote with such depth for someone only 23 years old that I think poet is the only title that properly conveys his elevated craft as a lyricist. I got to do Modest Mouse’s 2000 Black Glass tour poster, which was a huge deal for me." -Shepard Fairey- OBEY In the pantheon of street art, few names are as synonymous with the movement's thrust into mainstream culture as Shepard Fairey. His collaboration with the band Modest Mouse for their tour poster celebrates a milestone—the 25th anniversary of their seminal album, "The Lonesome Crowded West." In true Fairey fashion, he interprets the album's ethos with a limited edition silkscreen print, meticulously hand-pulled with five colors on Cream Speckletone fine art paper. This process ensures each of the 825 pieces is imbued with the artist's personal touch. Measuring 18x24 inches, this signed and numbered print presents an apartment block—an urban icon that exemplifies the crowded isolation in the album's title. Fairey's stylized depiction of the apartment block resonates with the band’s exploration of the paradoxical loneliness of urban existence, embodying the spirit of Modest Mouse's music through visual art. His work is not merely an artistic rendition but a narrative of city life's juxtapositions—connectivity and isolation, sound and silence. This collaboration is particularly significant for Fairey, who has been a fan of Modest Mouse since 1998. The album left an indelible mark on him, with its tonal shifts from the raucous "Teeth Like God's Shoeshine" to the more subdued "Trailer Trash." Fairey extols Isaac Brock's songwriting, acknowledging the profound depth and poetic nature of his lyrics, especially considering Brock's youth. The two tracks that stood out to Fairey, "Doin' the Cockroach" and "Cowboy Dan," exemplify the album's range and Brock's lyrical prowess. Fairey's history with Modest Mouse dates back to the 2000 "Black Glass" tour poster, reinforcing his long-standing connection with the band. This print is another chapter in that narrative, solidifying the kinship between his visual art and their musical expression. The artwork is a tangible piece of pop culture history, intertwining the legacy of Fairey's street art with Modest Mouse's contribution to music. Collectors of Fairey’s work and fans of the band alike cherish this print as a symbol of the enduring relevance of "The Lonesome Crowded West" and the power of art to transcend mediums, capturing the essence of an era.

Released in 2022, this hand-pulled print on rainbow foil paper captures the essence of the band's dynamic presence and the spirited essence of their live performances. Limited to an edition of 50, each print is signed and numbered by Soto, establishing its rarity and desirability among collectors and fans alike. The artwork size, at 18x24 inches, is substantial enough to allow the intricate details and the luminous quality of the foil to shine, making it a coveted piece for lovers of music and art. Visual Composition and Symbolism The Dave Matthews Band's artwork is a visual feast, teeming with the fantastical creatures and otherworldly landscape signatures of Soto's style. The central figure, a knight-like helmet, conveys a sense of adventure and boldness akin to the band's exploratory musical style. Around this focal point, Soto weaves a tapestry of images, including enigmatic animal figures and ethereal designs, creating a dream-like atmosphere that complements the band's genre-bending sound. Using rainbow foil as the medium adds an iridescent quality to the print, with colors and light shifting from every angle, echoing music's ever-changing and fluid nature. Artistic Techniques and the Silkscreen Process Creating this print is a testament to Soto's dedication to craftsmanship. Silkscreen printing, a technique with deep roots in pop art, requires precision and patience. The rainbow foil adds challenge, as its reflective surface demands perfect alignment and pressure during hand-pulling. The result is a series of prints where each is a unique art piece, with slight variations that make them individually unique. The tactile quality of the silkscreen print, with its layered inks and metallic sheen, bridges the gap between traditional graffiti art's raw immediacy and the refined qualities of gallery-worthy pieces. Cultural and Artistic Impact Jeff Soto's work for the Dave Matthews Band concert in Camden, NJ, is a powerful representation of the band's ethos and the shared ground between music and visual art. As a gig poster, it serves a functional purpose in promoting the event and stands alone as a piece of fine art, embodying the spirit of street pop art and graffiti artwork in a format that transcends the ephemeral nature of a live concert. This print captures a moment in time, celebrating the confluence of sound and vision and the communal experience of a music event through the lens of an artist who deftly navigates multiple creative worlds. Jeff Soto's "Dave Matthews Band Camden NJ Rainbow Foil Silkscreen Print" is a multifaceted artwork that epitomizes the collaborative spirit of street pop art and music. It's a visual anthem to the band's legendary status and a testament to Soto's innovative approach to art-making. The limited edition nature of the print, coupled with its striking visual narrative, ensures its lasting legacy as a valuable piece of cultural memorabilia and a shining example of contemporary graffiti artwork.

The work is screen-printed on 320gsm Coventry Rag Paper, a high-quality substrate that ensures the print's depth of color and durability. The paper's hand-deckled edges add to the bespoke nature of each print, emphasizing the hands-on, street-level ethos of Fairey's artistry. This particular piece reflects a historical moment, channeling the spirit of rebellion and innovation that defined the Bowery's music scene in the 1970s and 1980s. Fairey's choice of subject matter and his stylized portrayal of Debbie Harry, Blondie's frontwoman, underscore the lasting influence of the band and the punk movement. The inclusion of song titles like "Rapture" and "Atomic" in the print's design directly links to Blondie's legacy. At the same time, the motifs and typography are reminiscent of the era's concert posters and album covers. "Blondie on Bowery" was printed by Gary Lichtenstein Editions and published by WCC Editions. The collaborative nature of the piece, with its roots in street art and formal screen printing techniques, showcases Fairey's ability to navigate different artistic realms. Each print is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity, assuring its provenance and authenticity within the art market. The mural from which this print takes inspiration was created by Fairey in 2017, further cementing the relationship between his street-level murals and gallery-oriented prints.

This 2022 piece, meticulously hand-pulled and comprising five colors on Cream Speckletone fine art paper, mirrors the layered complexity of the album it honors. The work measures 18x24 inches, a testament to the album's monumental impact on the alternative rock scene and Fairey's own artistic journey. Each of the 825 signed and numbered prints encapsulates Fairey's personal connection with the album, having first encountered its raw and eclectic sound in 1998, a year after its release. He describes the album as "multi-dimensional," resonating through its varied tones from the "aggressive and dissonant" to the "folky, jangly, and intimate." His favorite tracks, "Doin’ the Cockroach" and "Cowboy Dan," evoke contrasting emotions of exhilaration and introspective tension, revealing the dexterity of Modest Mouse's music and the profound lyrical skill of frontman Isaac Brock. In this piece, Fairey channels the essence of the album's themes, depicting an isolated tower amidst a vast, red-streaked landscape, symbolizing the album's exploration of urban isolation and the Western American experience. The contrast between the solitary building and the surrounding expanse eloquently captures the album's title, "The Lonesome Crowded West." This visual representation goes beyond mere album art; it is an intersection of Fairey's iconic style and Modest Mouse's sonic influence, bridging visual and auditory art forms. Fairey's engagement with Modest Mouse extends back to their 2000 "Black Glass" tour, for which he also created a poster. This long-standing relationship emphasizes the mutual respect between the artist and the band, illustrating how music and visual art can coalesce to form powerful cultural statements. His artistic expression is not only a tribute to the music but also an homage to Brock's poetic lyrics, which left an indelible impression on Fairey, prompting him to label Brock a true poet. As an influential figure in street art and pop culture, Fairey’s creation for Modest Mouse cements his position at the forefront of contemporary art. It serves as a visual anchor for the album’s legacy, ensuring that its cultural resonance extends into the visual realm. Collectors and fans of both the band and Fairey find in this print a confluence of two forms of rebellion and expression, solidified on paper but echoing far beyond.

The Colossus of Destiny “I always thought it was strange that people didn’t know more about The Melvins and I felt their story needed to be told. The band members told me that a few people had talked the talk but had never followed up on their threats to make a film about them, so a little over two years ago things really fell into place and now the end product is finished for all to see, ” explained Director and Producer Bob Hannam, who worked in tandem with Ryan Sutherby to bring the film to fruition. “It has been a long labor of love for the both of us and we are excited for people to see the film and understand the workings of a truly great band.” -Shepard Fairey A couple of creases to lower right corner.

Mixtape Limited Edition Archival Pigment Fine Art Prints on Matte Velvet Rag Paper by Graffiti Street Art Pop Artist Dave Pollot. 2022 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 100 Artwork Size 19.82x24 Edition of 100 -Signed and numbered in pencil beneath in image -including 2" white margins -Printed on matte velvet rag paper Exploring Dave Pollot's Mixtape Archival Print Dave Pollot is an American artist known for innovatively integrating street art elements into classical and pop art themes. His work often involves reimagining thrift store paintings by introducing modern elements into the otherwise classical compositions, creating a whimsical and thought-provoking juxtaposition. In his limited edition piece titled "Mixtape," Pollot combines the aesthetic of street pop art with the delicate sensibilities of traditional still life, creating a visually striking artwork that resonates with a broad audience. This artwork, signed and numbered by Pollot himself, is part of a limited edition of 100 pieces, each printed on matte velvet rag paper, emphasizing its exclusivity and appeal to collectors. Characteristics and Medium "Mixtape" features a lush arrangement of flowers, a classical subject in art, contrasted sharply by including a modern cassette labeled "Awesome Mix." This blend of the old and the new is characteristic of Pollot's style, where he seamlessly merges elements from different eras to comment on the transient nature of art and cultural artifacts. The artwork is rendered on matte velvet rag paper, a choice that enhances the colors and gives the piece a soft, tactile quality that complements its visual depth. Matte paper also avoids the glare that glossy prints might exhibit, allowing for a more intimate and engaging viewing experience. The Significance of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork in Modern Culture Street pop art and graffiti have evolved from their rebellious, underground origins to become recognized and celebrated contemporary art forms. Artists like Dave Pollot, who engage with these styles, often do so to make statements about society or to bring a new perspective to traditional art forms. In "Mixtape," the cassette tape – an object that symbolizes the recent past and evokes nostalgia – serves as a reminder of the rapid pace of technological and cultural change. Including this element in a traditional still life disrupts the expected visual narrative and invites the viewer to reflect on the evolution of music media and its impact on personal and collective memory. Like much of Pollot's work, this artwork appeals to a diverse audience. It reaches those who appreciate the technical skill required in traditional art forms and those who enjoy street art's edgy, contemporary feel. Additionally, the limited nature of the print run – only 100 pieces – along with the artist's signature, adds a layer of collectibility and value, making it a prized possession for both art lovers and investors. In the broader context, Pollot's "Mixtape" exemplifies how modern artists are blurring the lines between high art and popular culture. By bringing elements of street pop art into the gallery, these artists are challenging preconceived notions about what constitutes "fine art" and who art is for. This art democratization reflects a more significant cultural shift towards inclusivity and the recognition of diverse artistic expressions. Pollot's work celebrates this shift, showcasing how traditional and modern visual elements can coexist harmoniously and create new meanings. Dave Pollot's "Mixtape" is more than just a visually appealing piece; it is a thoughtful commentary on the intersection of past and present, popular culture's temporary nature, and art's evolving boundaries. Through this work, Pollot captures the essence of street pop art and graffiti artwork and elevates it, offering a sophisticated yet accessible piece that resonates with a contemporary audience.

Treepeople 7 Year Bitch Gnome Nubbin RKCNDY Seattle Washington 5-15-1992 In the vibrant landscape of early 90s pop culture, Frank Kozik's "Treepeople 7-Year Bitch Gnome Nubbin" silkscreen print emerges as a vivid artifact of the era's music scene, particularly that of Seattle, Washington. Dated May 15, 1992, and designed for a concert at the now-legendary venue RKCNDY, the poster represents a visual symphony of the zeitgeist, highlighting the grit and raw energy that defined the grunge movement. This hand-pulled print on fine art paper is a limited edition, with Kozik signing and numbering each of the 250 pieces, underscoring the exclusivity and cultural value of the work. With its size stretching to an impressive 11x35 inches, the artwork presents a striking design that embodies the anarchic spirit associated with Kozik's work and the music of the featured bands—Treepeople, 7 Year Bitch, Gnome, and Nubbin. The central figure in the print is a clown-like character, a recurring motif in Kozik's work, which often blends the grotesque with the whimsical. The figure's exaggerated features and the explosion of colors around it create a sense of celebration and parody, a duality that often permeates street art. Such pieces are more than mere promotional items; they are snapshots of a cultural moment. They reflect the aesthetic and ethos of the underground music scenes of the time, where the visual art was as much a part of the experience as the music itself. Kozik's prints, like this one, connect the energy of live performances with the tangible world of art collecting, offering fans a piece of history that encapsulates the sound, mood, and rebellion of the period. The poster's inclusion in the annals of pop, street, and graffiti art is undeniable. It captures the do-it-yourself essence and the anti-establishment stance that the visual and musical arts expressed during the early nineties. For collectors and enthusiasts alike, it stands not just as a piece of memorabilia but as a symbolic work that continues to influence the aesthetic trajectories of street and pop art to this day.

Obey Long Playing AP Dance Floor Riot Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Artist Proof Hand-Pulled 1-Color Screen Print on Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Graffiti Pop Street Artwork. AP Artist Proof 2011 Signed & AP Marked Limited Edition Artwork Size 13x13 "Long before I knew about art galleries or even street art, I was excited about album cover art, if only because it was the visual counterpart to the music on the records I loved. Album covers conjured a euphoric association with the listening experience. Most of my earliest home-made tee shirts were stencils based on punk album covers… No matter how much I love art, or try to convince myself of its relevance in society, the fact remains that music is a lot cooler and way more able to reach people’s hearts and minds… but I’m a populist and I look at it this way: I may not play an instrument, but I’m gonna rock it hard as nails anyway. With my art I try to capture the same energy and spirit that makes music so powerful and democratic. REVOLUTIONS is a celebration of all the great music and accompanying art that has inspired me over the years." -Shepard Fairey Obey Long Playing AP by Shepard Fairey: A Fusion of Music and Street Pop Art The Obey Long Playing Artist Proof silkscreen print by Shepard Fairey is a striking homage to the enduring influence of music on visual culture.

In this piece, Fairey channels the energy and democracy of music into a visual form, celebrating its ability to unite people and transcend boundaries. The vinyl record featured in the design symbolizes a golden era of music, where physical albums and cover art played a crucial role in defining an artist’s identity. Fairey’s choice to emphasize this cultural artifact speaks to his admiration for the tangible connection between music and its audience. The print serves as a tribute to the artistry of album design and its ability to evoke powerful emotions, much like the music it represents. The Craft of Silkscreen Printing Obey Long Playing is a testament to Shepard Fairey’s mastery of the silkscreen printing process.

The one-color design allows for bold contrasts and sharp details, highlighting the intricacies of the decorative border and the clean lines of the central typography. Printed on fine art paper, the piece has a refined finish that enhances its visual impact and durability. The Artist Proof designation adds an element of rarity and exclusivity to this work, often representing the initial versions of a print used to refine the design. Fairey’s dedication to the silkscreen medium reflects his commitment to the traditions of graffiti and street art, where stenciling and hand-printing are integral to the art form. This choice of medium further emphasizes the tactile and authentic qualities that define Fairey’s work. Shepard Fairey: A Voice in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork Shepard Fairey, an American artist and activist, has become synonymous with Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork. Known for his iconic designs that blend cultural commentary with bold aesthetics, Fairey’s work often draws on his love of music, particularly punk and hip-hop.
