Bad Brains are one of my favorite punk/hardcore groups of all time. I’ve been a Bad Brains fan for 30-plus years and am lucky to work with them on a few projects, including prints, a clothing collection, and the cover of their album “Into the Future.” Glen E. Friedman shot many great photos of Bad Brains, and his photo of HR at A7 bar in New York City from 1981 is the reference for this poster illustration. It’s an incredible honor to create art and to be connected to a band that has provided so much inspiration, energy, and sheer pleasure for me over the years. This poster is signed by Glen, me, and HR! Keep that PMA (Positive Mental Attitude)! –Shepard

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

Moonage Daydream 5-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Fine Speckletone Art Paper by Artist Shepard Fairey OBEY. 2022 Shepard Fairey Numbered Limited Edition of TBD 18x24 inches. Screenprint on thick cream Speckletone paper. "David Bowie is one of my favorite musicians not only because so many of his songs possess magic, but also because he was creatively fearless and perpetually collaborative. I first discovered David Bowie in 1983 when his Let’s Dance album came out, and its hits like “Let’s Dance,” “China Girl,” and “Modern Love” were getting radio play. I became a die-hard Bowie fan once I picked up Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars at a flea market a few years later. Ziggy Stardust is one of my favorite albums ever. It makes sense that it was Bowie’s breakthrough album, not just because his newly adopted androgynous glam image was provocative and mesmerizing, but because the songs on the album are incredible! At first, my favorites were obvious rockers like “Suffragette City” and “Ziggy Stardust,” but over the years, folkier songs like “Soul Love” and “Starman” really grew on me. It’s almost impossible to pick a favorite Bowie song from Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars, much less Bowie’s entire catalog, but if I had to, I’d pick “Moonage Daydream.” It has Mick Ronson’s rocking guitar and also features unexpected instrumentation, including piano, strings, sax, and flute, which makes it both tough and pretty. I love the lyric, “don’t fake it baby… lay the real thing on me,” and all the lyrics have a sci-fi hipster coolness to them. “Moonage Daydream” is powerful, beautiful, hypnotic, hip, and a great indication of Bowie’s vision to push boundaries with his art. For this “Moonage Daydream” print image, I was able to reference outtakes from the Ziggy cover shoot, one of which I thought, with a few artistic liberties taken, could become a great portrait illustration. Bowie was incredibly photogenic, which yielded so many glorious images of him, and makes it a challenge to create a new visage that stands with the rest of his most iconic portraits. It is very meaningful for me to have the opportunity to craft my articulation of one of my favorite artists ever, from possibly the era of his peak creative genius. It is an honor to contribute in a small way to David Bowie’s visual legacy. –Shepard is one of my favorite musicians not only because so many of his songs possess magic, but also because he was creatively fearless and perpetually collaborative.

MUSACK Terry Hall Tribute Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled 2-Color on True White Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. 2023 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 300 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print. Lynval Golding & Team Specials, Billy Idol, Jane Wiedlin, Tim Armstrong, Tony Kanal, Tom Dumont, Adrian Young, Fishbone, Jerry Harrison, Tre Cool, Fred Armisen, Jesse Michaels. Donita Sparks.The Jg All-Stars. Bite Me Bambi. Record Safari Gig Poster "Terry Hall, singer of the Specials, one of my favorite bands, died of pancreatic cancer a little less than a year ago. This past Saturday, Musack did an amazing tribute to Terry with a bonkers lineup, including Horace Panter and Lynval Golding of the Specials, Jane Wiedlin of the Go-Go’s, Fishbone, No Doubt (except Gwen), Tom Morello, Tim Armstrong and Jesse Michaels of Operation Ivy, Donita Sparks of L7, and others! I fell in love with the Specials in the summer of 1989, around the time I started listening to Operation Ivy and Fishbone, so to have members of all those bands celebrating Terry was incredible! I was also able to do the poster for the event based on a beautiful photo by Chalkie Davies. There are two versions of the print, one with the event lineup included and another that is a simpler tribute to Terry. The black and white print are editions of 325, but the show lineup print is a smaller quantity (edition of 300) because many were sold at the event, and all proceeds from those benefit Musack, an excellent music charity for kids. On a personal note, Terry came by my studio a couple of times, and we talked for hours. He was kind, thoughtful, and very open about life’s ups and downs. We talked about kids, mental health, insecurity, relationships, the therapeutic benefits of creativity, and many other heavy topics. He was a kindred spirit who I thought I’d be friends with for many years. This print was done with love… thanks for the tunes Terry!" -Shepard Fairey- OBEY MUSACK's tribute to the legendary Terry Hall, the iconic singer of the Specials, is encapsulated in a visually arresting silkscreen print crafted by Shepard Fairey, renowned for his OBEY art movement. This piece, hand-pulled in 2-color on True White Speckletone Fine Art Paper, is a testament to the profound influence Terry Hall had on the music industry and its fans. The artwork is an exquisite fusion of pop art, street art, and graffiti art, embodying the very essence of Terry Hall's spirit and impact on the world. Released in 2023 as a signed and numbered limited edition, with only 300 prints in circulation, the artwork measures 18x24 inches. The artistry is profound, drawing inspiration from a poignant photograph Chalkie Davies took. Two versions of this print exist, one showcasing an event lineup and the other serving as a more streamlined homage to Hall. While the black and white prints are available in editions of 325, the one bearing the event lineup is more exclusive, with a count of 300, many of which were already acquired during the event. The backstory of this piece is equally captivating. MUSACK's heartfelt tribute event celebrated Terry's life, boasting a staggering lineup of eminent musicians, from Horace Panter and Lynval Golding of the Specials to Jane Wiedlin of the Go-Go’s, Fishbone, and members of No Doubt, among others. Shepard Fairey's interactions with Terry add depth to the artwork. Terry, in his visits to Shepard's studio, revealed layers of his personality, discussing topics ranging from mental health to the therapeutic nature of creativity. Shepard saw him as a kindred spirit, and their interactions were laden with deep understanding and mutual respect. This artwork, hence, is not just an aesthetic masterpiece but a heartfelt tribute, reverberating with the essence of Terry Hall's life and legacy.

Sized at 26x20, the print's dimensions offer a substantial canvas for the artists to work their magic, bringing together elements of graffiti and pop art to create a piece that is both a visual feast and a cultural statement. Exploring the Layers of 'Cali Love' The artwork's depth is palpable, with layers of meaning embedded within its vibrant composition. Risk Rock's influence is evident in the bold splashes of color and the whimsical inclusion of butterflies, synonymous with his graffiti art style. These motifs serve not merely as embellishments but as symbols of transformation and freedom, themes that resonate deeply within the hip-hop community and among the broader audience of street art enthusiasts. Fabrice Henssens's contribution as a photographer brings a sense of realism to the tableau, grounding the whimsical elements in a tangible scene that viewers can connect with. His skillful manipulation of light and shadow on the metallic paper adds a three-dimensional quality to the print, making the image leap off the page and capture the beholder's gaze. This interplay between the tangible and the fantastical is a hallmark of street pop art and is executed precisely in 'Cali Love.' 'Cali Love': An Emblem of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork As a limited edition print, 'Cali Love' is significant in street pop art and graffiti artwork. The decision to utilize Hahnemühle Fine Art Paper, known for its exceptional quality and durability, speaks to the artist's commitment to creating work that lasts, much like the enduring impact of street art on urban culture.

The collaboration between Risk Rock and Fabrice Henssens celebrates the cross-pollination between different artistic disciplines. Risk's roots in graffiti and Henssens's photographic prowess create a print that is more than the sum of its parts. It is a piece that captures the zeitgeist of street pop art, reflecting the dynamic and ever-evolving nature of the genre. Through 'Cali Love,' the artists pay homage to the spirit of California, with its rich history of street art and its status as a crucible of the hip-hop movement. In the landscape of modern art, 'Cali Love' stands out as a beacon of innovation and artistic fusion. The piece is not merely a static image but a dialogue between two artists and their mediums. This dialogue is layered, complex, and deeply rooted in the cultural fabric of street art. It is a print that commands attention invites introspection, and celebrates the multifaceted beauty of street pop art and graffiti artwork.

Just A Minor Threat Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. 2023 Signed by Glen E Friedman x Shepard Fairey- OBEY & Numbered Limited Edition of 550 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print Depicting Punk Rock Music Band Minor Threat & Ian MacKaye Stylized Raging Concert Photo by Glen E Friedman "I first heard Minor Threat in 1985 when I had been skateboarding and listening to punk and hardcore for a year. I was quickly becoming more confident, outspoken, and energized by D.I.Y. culture, and I was voraciously hungry for things that fuelled my emotional and intellectual evolution. Minor Threat was rocket fuel for my journey. Not only is their music a ferocious explosion of energy, but their playing is tight, and Ian MacKaye’s lyrics are intelligent and provocative. On top of that, Minor Threat created their own label, Dischord Records, to put out their music as well as records by other D.C. bands. Minor Threat and Dischord are profound influences on me, so I was very excited to collaborate with Glen on a Minor Threat print to celebrate the release of his new book “Just a Minor Threat.” Glen has the most intimate and powerful photos of Minor Threat, so it was possible to craft an illustration with strong images of all the band members. I’m also incredibly grateful to have the blessing of the members of Minor Threat." -Shepard Fairey- OBEY "Minor Threat is obviously one of the great foundations of hardcore punk rock. Inspiration for legions around the world, including Shepard and myself. As we’ve done with my last several books, Shepard and I got together and collaborated to make a print celebrating the release of the new publication. Shepard is one of my designing confidants and often gives me advice during my process of bookmaking so it makes sense that once the project comes to fruition, we enthusiastically make these prints of artists that inspire both of us. This print is based on separate images of each individual in the band as well as the always omnipresent audience that were a major part of incredible Minor Threat gigs. The book came out great and is different from previous books; it has its own voice, not only through the trove of never-before-seen photographs but also through the incredible essays throughout. Be inspired." -Glen E Friedman The intersection of punk rock and visual art finds a pulsating tribute in Shepard Fairey's silkscreen print titled "Just A Minor Threat." This limited edition piece, numbered to only 550 and signed by both Fairey and celebrated photographer Glen E. Friedman, crystallizes the essence of the iconic hardcore punk band Minor Threat. Created on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper and measuring 18x24 inches, the artwork commemorates not only the band's fierce energy but also the release of Friedman's new book. Minor Threat, fronted by Ian MacKaye, left an indelible mark on the punk scene with their explosive music and D.I.Y. ethos. This band didn't just play music; they ignited a cultural movement by establishing Dischord Records, encouraging self-expression and independence within the arts community. Fairey, himself a product of the skateboarding and punk cultures of the 1980s, attributes his confidence and outspoken nature to the catalytic influence of bands like Minor Threat. His collaboration with Friedman is not just a celebration of their shared inspirations but a manifestation of the band's impact on their creative and intellectual trajectories. The artwork vividly captures the raw intensity of a Minor Threat performance, with each member and the palpable energy of the audience rendered in a style that bridges the gap between photography and stylized illustration. This visual synergy complements the narrative of Friedman's book, which not only offers an array of unseen photographs but is peppered with essays that give voice to the era and the band's pivotal role in it. Fairey's print stands as a testament to the band's legacy and as a beacon for those fueled by the spirit of rebellion and authenticity that Minor Threat so potently symbolized.

The piece, produced on Fine Speckletone Art Paper, stands out as an exclusive demonstration of Fairey's expertise in producing rare street and pop art. Produced on January 31, 2018, this artwork not only exhibits the vibrant culture of street art but also serves as a reflective commentary on socio-political dynamics. This 18 x 24 inches silkscreen print, limited to an edition of 325, is adorned with Shepard Fairey's autograph, a mark of its authenticity and distinct value. Significantly, the phrases "Gimmie Some Truth, Reject These Damaged Goods" incorporated into the art piece amplify its critique of societal falsehoods and consumerist mentality, thereby echoing Fairey's counter-culture narrative. The artwork's cream-toned backdrop paired with Fairey's signature 2-color hand-pulled silkscreen print technique creates an enthralling contrast, enhancing the visual appeal of the art piece. This nuanced blend of color and texture is a testament to Fairey's mastery over his craft and his ability to communicate potent messages through his art.

Sadistic Dog Walker- Blue 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 (BLUE) 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

Bad Brains Punk Showcase Rasta AP Artist Proof 5-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Cream Speckle Tone Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist For Musicians Bad Brains. AP Artist Proof 2016 Signed & Marked AP Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x24 Shepard Fairey's "Bad Brains Punk Showcase Rasta AP" is a culturally potent piece within the street pop and graffiti art landscape. As an artist proof of the limited edition series, this 5-color hand-pulled silkscreen print on cream speckle tone paper measures 18x24 inches and was released in 2016. Signed and marked as an artist-proof (AP), it is a collector's piece that delves into the pulsating heart of punk's ethos and reggae's rasta vibrations, manifested through the lens of Fairey's distinct style. This artwork resonates with the energy of Bad Brains, a band that epitomized the hardcore punk scene with its unique blend of punk and reggae, a hybrid that paralleled Fairey's melding of art forms. The print captures the band's spirit with the commanding phrase "Positive Mental Attitude!" a mantra that Bad Brains championed throughout their career. Fairey's work is a visual echo of this ethos, presenting the band members with a backdrop of rasta colors, which not only allude to their music's roots but also serve as a nod to a broader cultural movement. Fairey, known for his influence on street pop art through works like the iconic "OBEY" campaign and the Obama "HOPE" poster, continues his exploration of music's intersection with visual art in this print. The piece is saturated with the motifs of Fairey's "OBEY Propaganda" — the star, the bold lettering, and the stylized imagery. These elements merge, not promote a band, and celebrate an entire cultural movement, reflecting the potency of street pop art in capturing and promoting subcultural movements. The "Bad Brains Punk Showcase Rasta AP" print symbolizes Fairey's engagement with the punk scene and his ability to encapsulate its raw, unfiltered voice within his work. It's a testament to the enduring dialogue between music and visual art, which Fairey has continually fostered through his prints, murals, and street art. This piece doesn't just hang on a wall; it screams with the voice of a movement, echoing from the underground clubs to the sun-soaked streets where street art and graffiti have long found their home.

One such luminary is Shepard Fairey, the renowned artist behind the OBEY campaign, who has consistently melded activism and artistry in his works. A notable tribute by Fairey is the silkscreen print dedicated to Terry Hall, the iconic lead singer of the Specials. Terry Hall's influence in the world of music was significant, and his tragic passing due to pancreatic cancer was a tremendous loss to the music community. This sentiment was palpable when Musack hosted an astounding tribute to Hall, graced by stalwarts like Horace Panter, Lynval Golding, Jane Wiedlin, Fishbone, members of No Doubt, and numerous other eminent artists. This tribute not only celebrated Hall's legacy but also underscored the bond shared by these artists, many of whom were influenced by the Specials during their formative years. The silkscreen print crafted by Fairey serves as a testament to Hall's enduring impact on him and the broader music fraternity. The artwork, pulled by hand on fine art paper, epitomizes the meticulousness synonymous with Fairey's creations. Limited to an edition of 325, the monochromatic rendition of Hall draws inspiration from a poignant photograph by Chalkie Davies. An alternative version features the event lineup, limited to an edition of 300, with a significant portion having been sold during the event. The proceeds from this version were dedicated to Musack, a laudable charity aimed at empowering kids through music. Fairey's connection with Hall went beyond mere admiration. Their conversations, which delved deep into topics like mental health, creativity, and life's intricacies, highlighted the profound respect and mutual understanding they shared. The artist's tribute to Hall is more than just a print; it's a heartfelt homage to a kindred spirit. Through this artwork, Fairey offers the world a glimpse into their shared moments, while simultaneously emphasizing Terry Hall's undying influence in the realms of music and culture.

Drum Breaks 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 Pop art, street art, and graffiti have always been mediums that offer a raw and unfiltered reflection of society, culture, and the artist's personal feelings. Among the luminaries in this realm, Shepard Fairey stands tall, his unique creations resonating with both art aficionados and the masses alike. The "Drum Breaks AP Dance Floor Riot" silkscreen print is a testament to his profound admiration for music and its intertwined relationship with visual arts. Crafted meticulously in 2011, this artist proof, hand-pulled, 1-color screen print on fine art paper, is not just an artwork but a fragment of Fairey’s soul, reverberating his passion for music. Shepard Fairey's initiation into the art world was not through the conventional means of art galleries but through album covers that acted as the visual symphony to the music he revered. Just as album art inspired emotions, memories, and an innate connection to the music, Fairey's street art endeavored to forge a similar connection with its audience. The silkscreen in question, sized at 13x13, embodies Fairey's attempt to harness the immense power and universal reach of music. His statement captures this sentiment eloquently, emphasizing how, despite art's intrinsic value, music has a superior prowess in touching human souls. His use of the term "REVOLUTIONS" is twofold, alluding to both the revolutions of a vinyl record and the socio-cultural revolutions music often incites. A deep dive into "Drum Breaks AP Dance Floor Riot" offers viewers a chance to journey through Fairey’s inspirations. The fusion of punk's rebellious nature, the invigorating energy of music, and the democratizing force of street art crystallizes in this piece. For those who see art not just as an aesthetic expression but as a pulsating representation of society and individual emotion, this silkscreen print is both a tribute and an inspiration. Through such creations, Shepard Fairey champions the ethos that one needn't play an instrument to rock the world – sometimes, a canvas and a vision are all it takes.

New Wave Couple 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 Pop art, street art, and graffiti have always been mediums that offer a raw and unfiltered reflection of society, culture, and the artist's personal feelings.

Tomorrow's Another Night Blue PP Printers Proof 3-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on 320gsm Natural Coventry Rag Vellum Paper by Modern Artist Niagara x Shepard Fairey x Niagara. PP Printer Proof 2019 Signed & Numbered Blue Limited Edition of 150 3-Color Screen Print on 320gsm Natural Coventry Rag Vellum Size: 18 x 24 Inches Release: July 02, 2021. "I chose an image of Ron and Niagara where I think they both look amazing, but there was a nice balance between in-your-face aggression with Ron's pose making eye contact, holding his fist up, and Niagara's seemingly demure embrace of Ron, but anyone who knows Niagara understands that though she may look sedate, she's pulling the strings. I added a switchblade that she is caressing with her finger, as a way to amplify her femme fatale chic, and because I thought it lent itself to my original idea of a title 'Bonnie & Clyde Were Lightweights.'" – Shepard Fairey-.OBEY Niagara and Shepard Fairey's 'Tomorrow's Another Night': A Striking Silkscreen Collaboration 'Tomorrow's Another Night,' a captivating blue PP Printer's Proof silkscreen print, stands as a testament to the collaborative genius of Niagara and Shepard Fairey. This limited edition piece, hand-pulled on 320gsm Natural Coventry Rag Vellum paper, encapsulates the essence of modern street pop art and graffiti with its bold imagery and nuanced undertones. Each print, part of a limited edition run of 150, is signed and numbered, underscoring its exclusivity and the meticulous craftsmanship invested into every screen. Released on July 2, 2021, the artwork measures 18 x 24 inches, allowing intricate details and striking color contrasts to command attention. The print portrays two figures, Ron and Niagara, in a complex interplay of visual tension and harmony. Shepard Fairey's description of the piece reveals a deliberate balance between the overt aggression shown by Ron's direct eye contact and raised fist and Niagara's ostensibly gentle embrace. Yet, as Fairey notes, the true power lies with Niagara, whose understated demeanor masks a controlling presence, symbolized by the switchblade subtly caressed by her finger. This addition by Fairey amplifies the femme fatale motif and ties in with his original concept for the print, suggesting a narrative of concealed strength and influence. Exploring the Visual and Conceptual Depth of 'Tomorrow's Another Night' In creating 'Tomorrow's Another Night,' Fairey and Niagara delve into the dynamics of power, control, and the role of iconography in art. The piece's title and the imagery together weave a tale of anticipation and the recurring cycles of life's drama. The use of a limited color palette accentuates the graphic strength of the work. At the same time, the choice of a high-quality silkscreen process ensures that each color pops against the paper, offering a texture and depth that resonate with the layered meanings of the artwork. The collaboration between the two artists brings together distinct styles and perspectives, marrying the raw edge of street art with the finesse of fine art printmaking. Fairey's background in street pop art and activism and Niagara's punk rock aesthetic combine to create a print that is both a visual feast and a piece of social commentary. The contrast between Ron's defiant gesture and Niagara's subtle dominance challenges traditional gender narratives and invites viewers to look beyond appearances to the complex stories beneath. Cultural Significance and Artistic Legacy of the Print 'Tomorrow's Another Night' is more than just a piece of art; it is a cultural artifact that captures a moment in the evolution of street art and its intersection with pop culture. The collaboration between Niagara and Shepard Fairey represents a bridging of generational talents, fusing the spirit of punk rock with contemporary street art to create something nostalgic and fresh. The Printer's Proof status of the print adds to its cultural weight, as these proofs are typically reserved for the artist's and printer's archives, representing the gold standard of the print edition. Collectors and enthusiasts of street pop art and graffiti artwork value PP editions for their closeness to the artist's original intent and the fine quality of the print. In essence, 'Tomorrow's Another Night' is a shining example of the vibrant and transformative power of collaboration in street pop art and graffiti. It reflects the ongoing narrative of rebellion and the subversion of societal norms that street art embodies. Through this print, Fairey and Niagara offer a thought-provoking and visually impactful piece, solidifying their roles as influential figures in contemporary art.

Rollins Capitalism- Signed by Henry Rollins 2-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Fine Speckletone Art Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. Signed by Henery Rollins, Signed & Numbered Screen Print ROLLINS CAPITALISM Screen Print 18 x 24 inches Edition of 1200 August 28, 2012 Henry Rollins has been a hero of mine since I got into Black Flag in 1984. Henry is a role model in his amazing taste and output in music, his political engagement, his monumental work ethic, and his social consciousness. Henry tours a ton and stays very aware of the world. Back before the 2008 recession started, Henry had an editorial segment on his TV show where he said “the president says the fundamentals of the economy are strong…I say start learning Chinese”. Henry’s new tour is called CAPITALISM and I’m sure he will have a lot of wise, funny, and maybe prophetic things to say. I was given the honor by Henry of illustrating his concept for the tour, him as a beaten-down Uncle Sam. I have a few of the prints available on my site signed by both me and Henry. The rest will be available on Henry’s tour which everyone should see. Pick a print up before the American brand of capitalism crumbles under the weight of its own ego. -Shepard Fairey

Black Sabbath Silver Black Crescent Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. 2013 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 125 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print of Metal Roc n' Roll Music Band Black Sabbath Featuring Ozzy Osbourne. "Black Sabbath has been one of my favorite bands for 25 years. I was fortunate to meet Jack Osbourne through my friend Big Dave in 2000. My relationship with Jack and Big Dave has led to several great Ozzy and Sabbath projects. One of my biggest “I’m not worthy!” moments occurred when Dave took me backstage to meet the Sabbath guys in 2004 at Ozzfest, and bassist and lyricist Geezer Butler was wearing an Obey shirt! Sabbath is still a phenomenal live band, and I’m incredibly honored to do my second(the first was in 2005) Sabbath/Obey tour poster. Sabbath released a great new record called “13” recently(produced by Rick Rubin) and are touring in support of the album." -Shepard Fairey- OBEY. Shepard Fairey's Interpretation of Black Sabbath's Legacy In 2013, Fairey, inspired by Black Sabbath's influence on his life and art, created a limited edition silkscreen print to commemorate the band's U.S.A. tour. This signed and numbered edition, limited to 125 pieces and sized at 18x24 inches, became an emblem of Black Sabbath's enduring impact on rock music and a collectible piece of street pop art. The artwork, hand-pulled on cream speckletone fine art paper, features iconic Black Sabbath symbols, such as the cross and the winged disc, alongside Fairey's signature style, which often includes elements like the star and the stylized imagery of the eye. The fusion of street pop art with music often manifests in gig posters, a medium that Shepard Fairey, known widely for his OBEY brand, has mastered with a distinctive style that resonates deeply within the pop culture landscape. His work for the iconic metal rock n' roll music band Black Sabbath, particularly the silver and black crescent silkscreen print, encapsulates the essence of the artist's and the band's legacies. The significance of Fairey's Black Sabbath artwork lies in its ability to bridge music's auditory experience with art's visual stimulus. The print does not merely represent the band; it evokes the rebellious spirit of Black Sabbath's music, the dark and mystical themes they explore, and the cultural movement they spearheaded within the heavy metal genre. Fairey's artistic trademarks, such as the word 'obey,' infuses the piece with a sense of authority and provocation that complements the band's ethos. Collectibility and Influence in the Art World Fairey's anecdote about meeting the band and finding Geezer Butler wearing an OBEY shirt is a testament to the reciprocal influence between artist and musician. It underlines how street pop art and music often come full circle, with artists influencing musicians and vice versa. The print is a celebration of the band's return with the album "13" and a nod to the historical relationship between the artist and Black Sabbath. It is this narrative that imbues the artwork with a personal touch, making it a profound statement within the realms of both pop culture and street art. As a collectible, the Black Sabbath silkscreen print by Shepard Fairey stands at the intersection of music memorabilia and fine art. Its scarcity and the reputation of its creator heighten its value not only in monetary terms but also as a cultural artifact. Collectors and fans seek such pieces for their aesthetic appeal and their ability to capture a moment in history, a period where music and street pop art intertwine to create a tangible representation of a musical era. In the broader spectrum of street pop art and graffiti artwork, Shepard Fairey's Black Sabbath print represents the genre's potential to transcend the streets and enter into the world of high art and collector's items. The piece, with its intricate design work and deep cultural connections, stands as a testament to the power of visual art to celebrate and immortalize the spirit of music.

The Guns of Brixton- Paul Simonon Hand-Pulled 2-Color Silkscreen Print on Cream Speckletone Art Paper by Pop Graffiti Artist Shepard Fairey- Obey x Kate Simon Rare Street Art Limited Edition Artwork. 2011 Signed by Shepard Fairey/Kate Simon & Numbered Limited Edition of 450 Artwork Size 18x24 Small bump crease to upper edge. Shepard Fairey X Kate Simon The Guns of Brixton (Paul Simonon), 2011 Screenprint in colors on speckled cream paper 24 x 18 inches (61 x 45.7 cm) (sheet) Ed. 450 Signed, numbered and dated in pencil along the lower edge Published by Obey Giant, Los Angeles. "The Guns of Brixton" is a song by the British punk rock band The Clash, written by their bassist Paul Simonon. It was featured on their 1979 album, "London Calling." Paul Simonon's artwork has become iconic in its own right, as he has pursued a successful career as an artist since the dissolution of The Clash. Shepard Fairey is a well-known American street artist, graphic designer, and activist, best known for his "OBEY Giant" campaign and the iconic "Hope" poster created for Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign. Combining his own artistic style with the legacy of punk rock, Fairey has created numerous works inspired by musicians and bands. Shepard Fairey created a silkscreen print inspired by "The Guns of Brixton" and featuring Paul Simonon. In this hypothetical artwork, Fairey would likely incorporate elements of his own signature style, such as bold colors, strong lines, and thought-provoking imagery, while paying tribute to the influence of The Clash and their music. The artwork might include references to the song's lyrics or imagery from the London Calling album cover, which features a photograph of Simonon smashing his bass guitar on stage based on photo by Kate Simon.

This limited edition silkscreen print, hand-pulled on 320gsm Natural Coventry Rag Vellum paper, showcases Fairey's masterful screen printing technique alongside Niagara's provocative artistic vision. Released on July 2, 2021, each print in the series is meticulously signed and numbered, indicating the exclusive nature of this artwork. The 18 x 24 inches dimensions make it ideal for collectors who appreciate the nuanced intersection of pop culture and fine art. The artwork features iconic imagery that reflects the rebellious spirit of the punk rock movement, imbued with a sense of in-your-face aggression and subtle manipulation. Ron's direct gaze and clenched fist are juxtaposed with Niagara's calculated and serene posture, a duality that Fairey emphasizes with the strategic placement of a switchblade. This element augments Niagara's allure nod to Fairey's original concept of the duo as a modern-day Bonnie and Clyde, suggesting a narrative of power and seduction that belies their outward appearance. Exploring the Visual Narrative and Artistic Merit of 'Tomorrow's Another Night' Shepard Fairey's decision to work with Niagara on 'Tomorrow's Another Night births a rich visual narrative of contrast and complexity. The stark black-and-white imagery is accented by the thoughtful use of three colors, which adds depth and draws the viewer into the story unfolding within the print. The art piece resonates with the energy of the street, where graffiti art traditionally challenges societal norms and provokes thought through visual storytelling. The screen print is a visual exploration of the dichotomy between appearance and reality, power dynamics, and the role of women as unseen orchestrators in a male-dominated society. Fairey's description of Niagara as someone who appears demure yet is 'pulling the strings' is a powerful commentary on the multifaceted nature of female strength and agency. Thus, the artwork becomes a platform for aesthetic appreciation and engagement with broader themes of gender and control. The Cultural Impact of Fairey and Niagara's Artistic Fusion 'Tomorrow's Another Night' represents a cultural milestone in street pop art and graffiti artwork. The collaboration between Shepard Fairey and Niagara bridges generations and artistic styles, creating a piece that is both a tribute to the past and a relevant commentary on contemporary issues. The limited edition nature of the print adds to its cultural significance, offering a snapshot of a moment when two artists from different backgrounds and with distinct voices came together to create something unique and impactful. Moreover, the piece contributes to the ongoing discourse about the place of street art within the broader context of art history. By bringing street art aesthetics into fine art through silkscreen printing, Fairey and Niagara challenge traditional boundaries and invite a reevaluation of what constitutes art in the modern era. 'Tomorrow's Another Night' is an artwork to be enjoyed for its visual appeal and a conversation starter that encourages viewers to delve deeper into the stories behind the images. In essence, 'Tomorrow's Another Night' is a vibrant embodiment of the collaborative spirit that defines street pop art. Through this print, Shepard Fairey and Niagara offer a piece steeped in the ethos of street culture while maintaining a polished finesse that appeals to the fine art collector. The artwork is a testament to the power of artistic collaboration and the enduring allure of street-inspired art.

District Line. "Bob Mould was the guitar player and co-songwriter of Husker Du, one of the most progressive hardcore/indy bands of the '80s. Originally one of the most successful bands on SST records, they were among the first American indie bands to sign to a major label. They are credited with paving the way for bands like Sonic Youth, The Pixies, and Nirvana. I borrowed Husker Du's Zen Arcade album from a friend in my 10th-grade year and quickly collected the rest of their catalog. I especially recommend their album Flip Your Wig. After Husker Du broke up, Bob formed Sugar and now performs solo. His new album District Line is awesome." -Shepard Fairey- OBEY Shepard Fairey's Tribute to Bob Mould: Merging Music and Street Art The Bob Mould AP Signed Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey, a figure synonymous with OBEY and a towering presence in street pop art, is a limited edition artwork that pays homage to Bob Mould's profound influence on the music scene.

AP Artist Proof 2012 Signed & Marked AP Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print—Lonesome Tree Stylized Old Gnarled Tree in Western Desert Setting. Thomas C. Dula was a former Confederate soldier who was convicted of murdering Laura Foster, based on a song made famous by Kingston Trio. Shepard Fairey's "Tom Dula Black AP" is a silkscreen print that fuses historical narrative with the artist's signature graphic style. Created in 2012, this piece is part of a limited edition set, hand-pulled with a color process on Fairey’s preferred medium, cream speckletone fine art paper. Each print in the series bears Fairey's signature and the distinctive 'AP' mark, denoting it as an Artist Proof. This status is often valued due to its rarity and direct connection to the artist's initial vision. Measuring 18x24 inches, the artwork presents a lone, stylized tree in a desolate Western desert setting. The barren landscape serves as a symbolic backdrop to the sad tale of Thomas C. Dula, a former Confederate soldier whose name became immortalized in the folk song "Tom Dooley" following his controversial conviction and execution for the murder of Laura Foster.

The work does not merely capture viewers' attention with its aesthetic but also invites them to engage with a deeper historical narrative, a characteristic often found in Fairey's body of work. It showcases the artist's ability to navigate the intersection of pop culture and fine art, where historical references become part of the modern visual lexicon. Shepard Fairey’s work frequently contains layers of meaning with a propensity for social commentary. With "Tom Dula Black AP," the art is not only about presenting a visual narrative but also evoking an emotional response that connects the historical past with contemporary culture. This piece is a poignant example of how street art can transcend its urban origins, entering the gallery space as a powerful storytelling medium that bridges historical context and modern expression.

Alice Bag 3-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Fine Speckletone Art Paper by Shepard Fairey x Melanie Nissen Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. 2022 Signed by Shepard Fairey & Melanie Nissen, Numbered 18x24 inches. Screenprint on thick cream Speckletone paper. Numbered edition of 550. "I was very excited to meet and collaborate with Melanie Nissen because, as co-founder of Slash magazine, she photographed some of the most important figures and moments in the early LA punk scene—a scene that dramatically impacted me as a creative person. Nissen’s new book of her punk photos from 1977-1980, Hard+Fast, is beautifully designed and full of amazing images. After some serious deliberation, I decided I’d like to make an illustration of Alice Bag. I first encountered Alice Bag as a teen in Penelope Spheeris’ documentary “The Decline of Western Civilization,” but The Bags did not put out a lot of music, and it was hard to find. However, in reading books about the LA punk scene like “We Got The Neutron Bomb” and “Lexicon Devil,” as well as the Slash magazine book, I realized that Alice was a very important figure in the LA scene who has continued to make great music and is an outspoken champion of LatinX and feminist causes. She’s also a very nice person. I’m glad to celebrate Alice for her contributions to culture then and now. If you are unfamiliar with The Bags, I’d recommend picking up “All Bagged Up… The Collected Works 1977-1980.” – Shepard

Obey Black Widows 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 Pop art, street art, and graffiti have always been mediums that offer a raw and unfiltered reflection of society, culture, and the artist's personal feelings. Among the luminaries in this realm, Shepard Fairey stands tall, his unique creations resonating with both art aficionados and the masses alike. The "Obey Black Widows AP Dance Floor Riot" silkscreen print is a testament to his profound admiration for music and its intertwined relationship with visual arts. Crafted meticulously in 2011, this artist proof, hand-pulled, 1-color screen print on fine art paper, is not just an artwork but a fragment of Fairey’s soul, reverberating his passion for music. Shepard Fairey's initiation into the art world was not through the conventional means of art galleries but through album covers that acted as the visual symphony to the music he revered. Just as album art inspired emotions, memories, and an innate connection to the music, Fairey's street art endeavored to forge a similar connection with its audience. The silkscreen in question, sized at 13x13, embodies Fairey's attempt to harness the immense power and universal reach of music. His statement captures this sentiment eloquently, emphasizing how, despite art's intrinsic value, music has a superior prowess in touching human souls. His use of the term "REVOLUTIONS" is twofold, alluding to both the revolutions of a vinyl record and the socio-cultural revolutions music often incites. A deep dive into "Obey Black Widows AP Dance Floor Riot" offers viewers a chance to journey through Fairey’s inspirations. The fusion of punk's rebellious nature, the invigorating energy of music, and the democratizing force of street art crystallizes in this piece. For those who see art not just as an aesthetic expression but as a pulsating representation of society and individual emotion, this silkscreen print is both a tribute and an inspiration. Through such creations, Shepard Fairey champions the ethos that one needn't play an instrument to rock the world – sometimes, a canvas and a vision are all it takes.
