Noir Flower Woman Blue AP Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Artist Proof Hand-Pulled Screen Print on Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. AP Artist Proof 2022 Signed & AP Marked Original Run Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print of Woman Holding Large Lotus Flower. "The Obey Noir Flower Woman print is inspired by Art Deco design and Dark Wave album art. The image has a few avenues for interpretation. I primarily see it as a tribute to idealists who protect the environment, cultivate justice, and hold optimism close to their hearts. We all face challenges and hostilities, but exterior forces don't control our inner strength and idealism. We do! Idealism leads to action. Those who perpetrate injustice rely on apathy to get away with their misdeeds. Nurture your inner idealism, and your constructive actions will follow. A portion of the proceeds from this print will benefit Greenpeace to support its work to enhance environmental protections and combat climate change." -Shepard Fairey. Shepard Fairey's "Noir Flower Woman Blue AP" is a testament to the harmonious blend of pop and street art, with a unique nod to graffiti culture. With the hand-pulled silkscreen method on fine art paper, this 18x24 print captures a woman delicately holding a giant lotus flower. This captivating artwork, released as an Artist Proof in 2022, is not only a rare find due to its limited edition run but also because of the personal touch added by Fairey through his signature and the distinctive "AP" mark. At a glance, the "Obey Noir Flower Woman" appears to be heavily influenced by Art Deco elements and Dark Wave album art aesthetics. Yet, beneath its visual layers lies a profound message. Shepard Fairey draws inspiration from those idealists who remain committed to environmental protection, champion justice, and foster a deep-seated optimism, even in the face of adversity. His work argues that external challenges can never overshadow the radiant light of one's inner resilience and idealism. Rather than being passive spectators, Fairey calls upon individuals to harness their inner idealism, transforming it into actionable change. This sentiment reverberates even more when considering that a portion of the proceeds from the sale of this print aids Greenpeace in its relentless battle against climate change and for enhanced environmental protections. This piece by Fairey isn't merely an artwork; it's an emblem that showcases the intersection of visual allure and impactful advocacy, a hallmark that distinguishes much of the art from the pop, street, and graffiti genres. As viewers immerse themselves in the intricate details of "Noir Flower Woman Blue AP," they are invited to reflect, respond, and act on the world around them.

Divided We Stand, United We Fall Hand-Pulled 2-Color Silkscreen Print on Hand Deckled 290gsm Coventry Rag Paper by Artist Cleon Peterson Limited Edition Pop Art Artwork. 2022 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of XXX Artwork Size 18x24 "The TRUTH image ran in the New York Times right before the election in the opinion feature, What Have We Lost. The Devil Made Me Do it & Divided We Stand, United We Fall were both made on January 6th in response to the Faustian bargain that Trump and his accomplices made in designing the coup. Today we find ourselves at a crossroads; now, more than ever, is the time we need to come together, take a stand, exercise our voices, and fight for Truth and Democracy. Hopefully, daylight will cast off this right-wing authoritarian spell. I see these posters as markers of a historical time and feel a duty within to share my views. We’re all exhausted by politics, but we must embrace the moment and take action because the threat is fundamental; our democracy could be gone in the blink of an eye." - Cleon Peterson The connection of Peterson with street art is also an aspect of his work worth mentioning. Even though he has created numerous murals all over the world, the artist himself does consider himself a street artist: “I don’t think of myself as a street artist or somebody that does work in that vein, but I love the idea of doing large paintings that confront people.”. This is revealing of his motivation to make his art as accessible as possible, as a way to invite the viewers to interact with it and confront the subjects the artist is interested in addressing. This brings up the following questions concerning the art of Peterson: “What is the meaning of it? Does it have a meaning after all? If yes, is this pre-determined by the artist? In order to better understand the way meaning is created in the world of Cleon Peterson, it is essential to, primarily, understand the way he perceives the media as a field of allegations, unbased rumors, suppositions and outright lies. In the world that the artist has created and, in correlation with our own reality, media is a tool of manipulation in the hands of politicians, leaving us helpless and in the mercy of an exploitative authoritarian system.

Two Americas- Large Format Limited Edition Hand Pulled 4-Color Serigraph Print on Varnished 100% Cotton Rag Archival Paper with hand-deckled edges by Shepard Fairey Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 4-Color Serigraph on Varnished 100% Cotton Rag Archival Paper. 30 x 40 inches. Signed by Shepard Fairey. Numbered edition of 100. Jim Marshall's photograph of a coal mining family in Hazard, Kentucky, taken while he lived with them, says a lot with what it shows, which is a mother and two children huddled together in support of each other, but it says just as much with what it lacks. There is a conspicuous absence of material necessities and a father. I don't know whether the father was working in a coal mine when the photograph was taken or had potentially died young because of the health risks of working under dangerous conditions, but it is clear that the family is struggling and lacking.

Rise Against the System- Pink 8-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on 300gsm Bristol Paper by MAD Rare Street Art Famous Pop Artwork Artist. 2021 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 30 Artwork Size 19.7x27.6 "Rise Against the System - Pink" presents itself as a profound visual statement in the portfolio of the artist known as MAD, whose identity often remains as enigmatic as the messages embedded within their art. This piece is particularly remarkable, not only for its vibrant aesthetic but also for its rarity and the technique used in its creation. It is a limited edition silkscreen print with only 30 pieces, each meticulously signed and numbered by the artist. It underscores its value to collectors and enthusiasts of street art and pop art alike. The artwork spans a generous 19.7x27.6 inches and is printed on robust 300gsm Bristol paper, a choice that speaks to the durability and high quality of the print. The artwork is an eight-color hand-pulled silkscreen, a traditional technique that imbues each print with a unique touch, diverging from the uniformity of mass-produced art. The image itself—a figure entrapped within a bottle—acts as a metaphor for the constraints and pressures of societal systems. The use of a Pink palette not only draws the eye but also may represent the idea of 'going Pink' or womanhood consciousness, a theme often explored in contemporary street art. The figure's pose, one of active resistance against the confines of the bottle, is symbolic of the fight against oppressive structures, a recurring theme in street art's lexicon, which often seeks to challenge the status quo. MAD's piece resonates within the broader context of pop art through its accessible imagery and bold coloration, yet it retains the edginess and subversion characteristic of street art. This duality ensures "Rise Against the System - Pink" speaks a universal language, appealing to a broad audience while remaining deeply rooted in the cultural and political commentary that defines much of the street art movement. Through this work, MAD offers a compelling narrative on personal agency and liberation, creating a lasting visual impact that transcends the moment of its creation, cementing its place in the discourse of modern art.

Flush Giclee Print by Ron English Artwork Limited Edition Print on Fine Art Paper Graffiti Pop Street Artist. 2022 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 30 Artwork Size 37x25 Uncle Scam Ad Flag Giclee Print is a work of art by Ron English, a contemporary American artist known for his thought-provoking, often satirical and subversive street art, paintings, and sculptures. English is famous for creating art that highlights the absurdity of modern society, often blending elements of pop culture, advertising, and politics. In this particular piece, the artist critiques consumerism and the advertising industry by combining elements of the American flag with a caricature of Uncle Sam, who is transformed into "Uncle Scam." The term "Uncle Scam" refers to the idea that the advertising industry often manipulates consumers and promotes excessive materialism, which can be detrimental to society as a whole. A giclee print is a high-quality digital printing method that is capable of producing vivid and detailed reproductions of artwork. This process uses specialized inkjet printers and archival-quality inks, which are applied to various substrates, such as canvas or fine art paper, to create a long-lasting and visually appealing print. The result is a reproduction that retains the original artwork's colors and details, making it a popular choice for artists and collectors alike.
