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.

Kurt Cobain- Endless Nameless 3-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Cream Speckle Tone Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. Kurt Cobain – Endless Nameless 18 inches by 24 inches Edition of 650 April 7, 2021 "I have been a fan of Nirvana since I first heard them over 30 years ago. My appreciation for lead singer Kurt Cobain’s artistry and intelligence has only increased over the decades. I had an opportunity to see Nirvana and the Melvins in the fall of 1991, but I had a college project due, so I skipped it to finish my work. At the time, it seemed like both bands would remain underground and tour the smaller clubs for the foreseeable future." -Shepard Fairey

Terry Hall Tribute Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled 1-Color on Pure White Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. 2023 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 325 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print "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 The realm of street art, pop culture, and graffiti has witnessed countless legendary figures whose artistry has both challenged and changed perceptions. 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.

Clementine AP Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Artist Proof Hand-Pulled Screen Print on Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. AP Artist Proof 2012 Signed & AP Marked Original Run Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print of Neil Young Music Influenced Woman Floating In Water Shepard Fairey's distinct style has become a hallmark in the realms of pop art, street art, and graffiti art. One of his most remarkable works is the "Clementine AP" Silkscreen Print, an artist proof created in 2012. This piece exemplifies the meticulous craftsmanship and creative ingenuity that Fairey consistently demonstrates. It's a hand-pulled screen print on Speckletone Fine Art Paper, underscoring his dedication to producing high-quality artwork that has a tangible and unique texture. The art piece's design showcases an image of a woman, evidently influenced by the music of Neil Young, floating serenely in water. This serenity is contrasted by the inclusion of the iconic "Hello My Name is" name tag, a staple of street culture that often accompanies graffiti. Such juxtaposition between calm and urban grittiness encapsulates Fairey's ability to combine different elements from varied inspirations into one cohesive and captivating piece. Moreover, the print is adorned with graffiti elements, which are not only a nod to the artist's roots but also add a layer of depth and texture to the narrative of the artwork. Another essential aspect to note about the "Clementine AP" Silkscreen Print is its exclusivity. Being an Artist Proof (AP), it indicates that this piece was part of the initial run of prints the artist created before finalizing the edition. Such proofs are treasured by art collectors for their rarity and unique details. Signed by Fairey himself and marked with the "AP" designation, this artwork stands as a testament to the artist's profound influence in the contemporary art world. Its size, 18x24 inches, makes it an ideal piece for display, offering viewers an immersive experience into the mind and creative vision of Shepard Fairey.

Modest Mouse- Orlando 2014 Music Limited Edition Gig Poster 3-Color Hand-Pulled Silkscreen Print Artwork on Fine Art Paper by Fugscreens. 2014 Numbered Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x24 Modest Mouse Music Band, Orlando FL 2014 Beacham Theater. Modest Mouse, Orlando, Flordia, 2014, Beacham Theater, Music, Walkman, Cassette Tape, Band Modest Mouse Orlando 2014 Music Limited Edition Gig Poster by Fugscreens The Modest Mouse Orlando 2014 gig poster by Fugscreens is a striking example of how street pop art & graffiti artwork can merge with music culture to create a visually compelling and collectible piece. This hand-pulled silkscreen print was designed to commemorate the band’s performance at the Beacham Theater in Orlando, Florida. Produced in a limited edition and numbered, this 18x24-inch artwork captures the nostalgia and energy associated with both Modest Mouse’s music and the aesthetic of analog-era sound. The careful craftsmanship of the print, combined with its raw and textural feel, makes it a standout piece in both the world of gig posters and modern street pop art. The Artistic Style and Composition of the Gig Poster Fugscreens’ design for this poster is both minimalistic and deeply evocative, using a limited color palette and bold outlines to create a sense of vintage authenticity. The central image features an old-school Walkman cassette player and a pair of headphones resting on a textured surface. The device itself carries the label Orlando, grounding the piece in its specific concert location while also evoking the personal and intimate nature of listening to music on cassette. The composition places heavy emphasis on nostalgia, making it feel like a snapshot from an era when music was deeply personal and portable in a tangible way. The typography used for Modest Mouse is organic and hand-drawn, with a rough, textured quality that mirrors the do-it-yourself aesthetic of street pop art & graffiti artwork. The uneven, hand-rendered lettering reinforces the raw and unpolished ethos that has always defined Modest Mouse’s sound. The print’s frame, made of thick, uneven lines, gives the illusion of a worn-out music poster, further emphasizing the theme of analog culture and imperfection as an artistic choice. Music and Nostalgia in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Street pop art & graffiti artwork often draws on themes of nostalgia, repurposing images of outdated technology and cultural artifacts to evoke emotional connections with the past. This gig poster does precisely that, using a Walkman as its centerpiece to reference a time when physical media shaped music consumption. The tactile nature of silkscreen printing enhances this effect, giving the artwork a physical depth that echoes the texture of old album covers and worn-out cassette cases. The sense of impermanence that comes with gig posters and street art is also reflected here, as these prints exist as a momentary documentation of a specific event, much like how street art often responds to a fleeting moment in time. Fugscreens’ work aligns with the ethos of gig posters that have long been associated with underground music scenes and independent artistry. Like street artists tagging walls with unique designs, gig poster artists create one-of-a-kind visuals that both promote and commemorate live performances. The direct, almost hand-made quality of this print ties it back to the roots of punk, indie rock, and alternative music, where visuals play just as big a role in shaping a band’s identity as their sound does. The Impact and Collectibility of the Limited Edition Silkscreen Print As a numbered limited edition piece, the Modest Mouse Orlando 2014 gig poster carries a sense of exclusivity that enhances its desirability among collectors. The 18x24-inch format makes it a substantial yet easily displayable artwork, perfect for music lovers who appreciate the intersection of street pop art & graffiti artwork with music culture. The hand-pulled silkscreen process adds another layer of authenticity, as each print contains slight variations, making every piece unique. Fugscreens has a reputation for blending urban aesthetics with detailed screenprinting techniques, and this poster is no exception. The merging of music history, personal nostalgia, and a distinctly handmade approach make this print more than just a concert souvenir—it becomes an artistic statement. The continued appreciation for gig posters as an art form ensures that works like this remain culturally significant, capturing moments in music history while embracing the raw, expressive qualities of street pop art & graffiti artwork.

Rollins 50 2-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Fine Speckletone Art Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. Signed & Numbered Screen Print 18 x 24 inches Edition of 700 February 4, 2011 "Henry Rollins has a birthday coming up that only comes along once every half-century… YES, he’s turning 50. This calls for a Rollins fortnight celebration with two prints spanning 30 years. This week the ROLLINS 50 tour poster drops. Next week on 2/13/11 I’ll release a print collaboration with Glen E.

Henry has been doing it his way hardcore for 30+ years. This 50 poster is ridiculous not because Henry is getting older, but because Henry would never lounge around long enough for the reaper to get a jump on him. " -Shepard Fairey

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.
