    Let There Be Dark Blue PP Printers Proof Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY x Niagara Hand-Pulled 3-Color on 320gsm Natural Coventry Rag Vellum Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. PP Printer Proof 2019 Signed & Marked PP Limited Edition Artwork Size 24x18 Silkscreen Print "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 Shepard Fairey's 'Let There Be Dark Blue': A Portrait of Rebellion in Print Shepard Fairey, the artist behind the OBEY brand, is a force to be reckoned with in street pop art and graffiti artwork. His 'Let There Be Dark Blue PP Printer's Proof Silkscreen Print,' created in collaboration with artist Niagara, is a powerful embodiment of his iconic style and the subversive edge of street culture. The 2019 limited edition hand-pulled print, signed and marked as a Printer's Proof, is a collector's piece, reflecting a synthesis of Fairey's design sensibility and the punk rock ethos encapsulated by the figures of Ron and Niagara. The artwork, 24x18 inches and printed on 320gsm Natural Coventry Rag Vellum fine art paper, features Fairey's signature three-color silkscreen process, yielding a print with crisp lines and bold contrast. The image exudes raw energy, with Ron's assertive eye contact and raised fist paired with Niagara's subtle yet commanding presence. Fairey enhances this dynamic by cleverly adding a switchblade, augmenting Niagara's femme fatale allure and highlighting her understated control within the composition. Interpreting Fairey's Vision and Artistic Narrative In 'Let There Be Dark Blue,' Fairey draws on the powerful imagery of cultural rebellion and the dichotomy of strength and subtlety. His portrayal of the two figures is steeped in a narrative that transcends the print, suggesting a story of defiance, control, and the complexities of interpersonal dynamics. The title, 'Let There Be Dark Blue,' hints at a theme of emergence, breaking from the conventional into the shadows where the counterculture thrives. As recounted by Fairey, the original idea for the title, 'Bonnie & Clyde Were Lightweights,' sets the tone for an interpretation of the print as a modern-day outlaw saga. This narrative is further emphasized by the backdrop of newspaper headlines and text, suggesting turmoil and the clamor of society against which the central figures stand in stark relief. Through this print, Fairey not only captures the aesthetic of the punk rock scene but also comments on the enduring spirit of rebellion it represents. The Significance of 'Let There Be Dark Blue' in Street Art The cultural significance of 'Let There Be Dark Blue' within the street art community is multi-layered. The print is a visual feast and a thought-provoking piece that invites reflection on the role of art as a commentary on society. Shepard Fairey's work is often associated with social and political activism, and this print fits within his broader oeuvre as a medium for messaging and reflection. Furthermore, the piece celebrates the collaborative spirit inherent in street art culture. The partnership between Fairey and Niagara exemplifies the communal aspect of the genre, where artists come together to create works that are greater than the sum of their parts. The limited edition nature of the print and its status as a Printer's Proof enhances its value and desirability, capturing a moment in time when the energy of street culture is distilled into a single, tangible work of art. In essence, 'Let There Be Dark Blue' by Shepard Fairey is a testament to the vibrancy and potency of street pop art and graffiti artwork. It encapsulates the defiance, the style, and the narrative depth that defines the street art movement, inviting audiences to engage with a piece of art that is as thought-provoking as it is visually striking. Through this print, Fairey continues to push the boundaries of what street art can convey, solidifying his role as a pivotal figure in the contemporary art world.

  • Let There Be Dark Red Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY x Niagara

    Shepard Fairey- OBEY Let There Be Dark Red Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY x Niagara

    Let There Be Dark Red Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY x Niagara Hand-Pulled 3-Color on 320gsm Natural Coventry Rag Vellum Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. 2019 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 150 Artwork Size 24x18 Silkscreen Print "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 Exploring the Bold Realms of "Let There Be Dark" by Shepard Fairey: A Street Pop Art Icon Shepard Fairey's "Let There Be Dark Red Silkscreen Print" is a striking embodiment of the symbiotic relationship between street pop art and contemporary visual culture. This limited edition piece, created in collaboration with Niagara, is a visual narrative encapsulating the energy and subversive undercurrents that course through this artistic movement. As a hand-pulled 3-color print on 320gsm Natural Coventry Rag Vellum fine art paper, it stands as a testament to Fairey's mastery over the medium and his unwavering commitment to pushing the boundaries of street art into the delicate art sphere. Produced in 2019, the artwork is part of a highly exclusive series, with only 150 signed and numbered editions available. The dimensions of the artwork, 24x18 inches, are significant not only for their visual impact but also for their ability to draw the viewer into the confrontational yet poised dynamic that defines the composition. Fairey's choice of subjects, Ron and Niagara, is particularly telling; their depictions are rendered with a stark contrast of black, white, and a commanding red, highlighting their iconic stances and the charged atmosphere they embody. Fairey's narrative intention behind "Let There Be Dark" is as compelling as the visual force of the artwork. In his words, he captures the essence of Ron and Niagara's personas, juxtaposing Ron's aggressive frontality with Niagara's seemingly delicate yet cunning disposition. The addition of a switchblade subtly caressed by Niagara adds a layer of danger and a nod to the femme fatale archetype. This imagery is not merely decorative; it is a deliberate act to challenge and subvert the viewer's expectations, a hallmark of Fairey's style that has cemented his place in street pop art and graffiti artwork. The title, "Let There Be Dark," invites interpretation, playing on the biblical phrase "Let there be light," suggesting a reversal or an embrace of shadow and complexity over simplicity and illumination. This reversal is symbolic of the more significant cultural critique often found in Fairey's work, where the binaries of good and evil, light and dark, are not just questioned but also deconstructed. Beyond the visual and thematic layers, the print's collectibility is further enhanced by its fine art attributes. The use of Coventry Rag Vellum fine art paper, known for its durability and smooth texture, ensures that the colors' vibrancy and the lines' precision remain intact over time. The paper choice reflects Fairey's nuanced understanding of materials and their role in elevating street art to OK art status. Shepard Fairey's "Let There Be Dark Red Silkscreen Print" is an authentic representation of the spirit of street pop art. It bridges the gap between street art's raw expressiveness and silkscreen printing's calculated precision. With its limited edition status and the artist's signature, the print is not just a piece of art; it is a cultural artifact that captures the pulse of contemporary society and the ongoing dialogue between street art and the mainstream art world. It is a vivid example of how street pop art continues to shape and influence our visual language and cultural conversations.
