    Shepard Fairey- OBEY Floral Takeover 2017 Red Black Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Floral Takeover 2017 Red Black Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled 2-Color on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. 2017 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 200 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print "I'm always creating new patterns for my street installs and fine art pieces. I used to buy discontinued wallpaper, but now I design and print my own. These look nice as stand-alone prints, not just repeat patterns, so I'm releasing a 200-print edition of four versions. Buy a couch to match… coming soon… just kidding!" -Shepard Fairey- OBEY. The "Floral Takeover 2017 Red Black Silkscreen Print" by Shepard Fairey encapsulates the interplay of aesthetics within Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork, signifying a profound narrative through its intricate design and bold color scheme. This piece exemplifies how traditional elements can be transformed into a new cultural vocabulary that challenges and expands the boundaries of fine art. Featuring a rich, vibrant red background overlaid with a contrasting black floral pattern, the artwork is a striking visual statement that captures the viewer's attention. Shepard Fairey, a pivotal figure in the street art movement, often incorporates motifs that reflect social and political activism. His work is known for its ability to decorate and provoke thought and conversation, a characteristic quintessential to the graffiti art movement. Silkscreen printing allows for the precision and consistency necessary for disseminating his message, harkening back to his roots in skateboarding and punk rock culture, where screen-printed designs were a means of rebellion and identity. Silkscreen printing used in this artwork is also a nod to the pop art tradition, a method popularized by artists like Andy Warhol, who sought to erase the boundaries between 'high' art and 'low' cultural imagery. Fairey's "Floral Takeover" is a contemporary continuation of this tradition, seamlessly blending street art's spontaneity and edginess with pop art's mass appeal and commercial aesthetics. The result is a striking work of art that is accessible and deeply layered in meaning. Through this print, Fairey extends the dialogue of street art into the more permanent and collectible domain of fine art prints, allowing for the transitory nature of street graffiti to be preserved and appreciated over time. The artwork becomes an important cultural artifact, representing the ever-evolving landscape of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork, embodying the transformative power of art in public spaces and the ongoing conversation between art and society.

  • War By Numbers VSE OG Colorway HPM Stencil Shepard Fairey x Ernesto Yerena Montejano x Hecho Con Ganas x Obey

    Shepard Fairey- OBEY War By Numbers VSE OG Colorway HPM Stencil Shepard Fairey x Ernesto Yerena Montejano x Hecho Con Ganas x Obey

    War By Numbers VSE- OG Colorway Variable Stencil Edition Acrylic Artwork on Hand Deckled Fine Art Paper by Street Artists Shepard Fairey x Ernesto Yerena Montejano x Hecho Con Ganas x Obey. 2022 War By Numbers VSE- OG Colorway 20x26.5 inches. Signed & Numbered Ultra Rare Edition of 14. Variable Stencil Edition (VSE) on Paper. Signed by Shepard Fairey, Hecho Con Ganas publishing chop in the lower-left corner. "Created during the Iraq war, but the quest for peace requires perpetual vigilance, and the current invasion of Ukraine is a reminder of the brutality of war. The “War By Numbers” image is a statement about not becoming desensitized by war to the extent that it becomes as banal as a paint-by-numbers image. The “Peace Elephant” is an appeal to our sense of Karma and harmony with the world around us." - Shepard Fairey A profound intersection of artistry and activism emerges in "War By Numbers VSE- OG Colorway," an emblematic piece presented by the collaborative brilliance of Shepard Fairey, Ernesto Yerena Montejano, Hecho Con Ganas, and Obey. Showcased on meticulously hand-deckled fine art paper, this 20x26.5 inch artwork not only exemplifies the prowess of its creators but also delves deeply into the social and political fabric of contemporary global scenarios. Dated 2022, this piece holds the distinction of being an ultra-rare Variable Stencil Edition (VSE) on paper, with only 14 such editions in existence, each one thoughtfully signed and numbered. Notably, the presence of the Hecho Con Ganas publishing chop in the lower-left corner augments its authenticity and intrinsic value. While the artwork itself is a marvel of color interplay and design, its underlying message is both timeless and urgent. Shepard Fairey's own words elucidate the motivation behind its creation, highlighting its inception during the Iraq war. Yet, its resonance extends beyond that particular conflict. The piece emerges as an enduring reminder of the costs of warfare, particularly with the poignant backdrop of the recent Ukraine invasion. Fairey astutely draws attention to the dangers of becoming inured to the horrors of conflict, suggesting that society must never allow war's devastation to become as commonplace and mundane as a paint-by-numbers image. This sentiment is further emphasized by the inclusion of the "Peace Elephant," symbolizing the universal aspiration for harmony and an appeal to humanity's collective conscience. In the vast realm of pop art, street art, and graffiti, "War By Numbers" stands as a testament to art's ability to transcend aesthetic appeal, challenging viewers to confront and engage with the world's most pressing issues.

    Psychedelic Andre- Classic Red Obey Giant Blotter Paper Limited Edition Archival Pigment Print Art on Perforated Blotter Paper by Shepard Fairey X John Van Hamersveld pop culture LSD artwork. "I first made this image in 1967, and then the poster came out in 1968. One day I sat down and started this drawing out of my style. I had been an art director at Capitol Records, and I hadn't been drawing very much. It was a whole new state I was in. But it was an opportunity to test my drawing and put it into a poster and have it published. It all came out great. It was a fantastic show. There were ads everywhere and people loved the poster. It just started to become a piece of history right away, much like The Endless Summer poster." - John Van Hamersveld "I became a fan of Hendrix after I exited my punk rock orthodoxy phase. I ended up gravitating towards John's image because it had that nod to psychedelia, without going so overboard in the baroque detail, that it remained iconic. This Hendrix image itself — along with a few other influences, like Barbara Kruger and Russian Constructivism — was a huge influence in how I was going to make work that had the ability to cut through the clutter of what's on the street and still have a recognizable style. When I was just making variations of the Andre on the different backgrounds, I was looking at a lot of psychedelic work, but John's piece really inspired me to make something that was a deviation from just playing it safe with the original Andre image. So John's Pinnacle Hendrix was sort of a gateway to the evolution of my entire Andre The Giant project. I can't really understate the importance of this image for me." - Shepard Fairey

  • Idiocracy Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Shepard Fairey- OBEY Idiocracy Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Idiocracy Limited Edition 4-Color Hand-Pulled Silkscreen Print on Fine Art Paper by Shepard Fairey, Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2016 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 550 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print "I’ve always felt that art, entertainment, and humor can be the best delivery vehicles for social commentary, so I love the way humor is used in “Idiocracy” to make the social critique more digestible. The movie is a harsh but necessary indictment of the anti-intellectual culture and politics that seem to become the norm more and more everyday. The film is great in a cautionary way and has an enjoyable irony being a somewhat low-brow piece of entertainment about the perils of succumbing to a cultural rejection of anything intellectual or high-brow. In other words, the genius of the film is that it may actually get through to the audience it should reach, rather than just preaching to the intellectual elite" -Shepard Fairey- OBEY Shepard Fairey's "Idiocracy" limited edition print encapsulates the convergence of pop culture and social critique through the lens of contemporary art. Renowned for his subversive street art and graphic designs, Fairey extends his canvas to fine art paper in this 2016 artwork, limited to 550 signed and numbered pieces. The 18x24 silkscreen print features a four-color palette and is a tangible expression of Fairey’s dedication to using art as a medium for commentary on societal issues. Drawing inspiration from Mike Judge's satirical film "Idiocracy," Fairey's print is not only a visual tribute but also a critique of the film’s themes—depicting the troubling rise of anti-intellectualism and the cultural dismissal of enlightenment and sophistication. Fairey himself praises the film's use of humor to present its social criticism in a more palatable form, creating a space for reflection rather than alienation. His artwork captures the film’s ironic humor, using a brain under the guise of a vending machine product—emblematic of commodification and the oversimplification of complex ideas. This print, like many of Fairey’s works, is imbued with a sense of urgency and a call to awareness. It encapsulates the artist's view that the realms of art, humor, and entertainment can effectively intersect to deliver powerful messages about the current state of society. Fairey’s "Idiocracy" is not merely a piece to be admired for its aesthetic appeal, but a statement piece that encapsulates the pressing cultural narrative around the value of intelligence and the dangers of its rejection in public discourse. The visual elements of the print—the juxtaposition of a brain with a hand grenade, the stark and commanding typography, and the bold colors—are characteristic of Fairey's style. They are employed here not only to draw the eye but also to provoke thought, embodying the essence of graffiti and street art as tools for social engagement. In a culture increasingly leaning towards anti-intellectual sentiment, Fairey’s "Idiocracy" stands as a critical beacon in modern pop art, reminding viewers of the power of art as a reflective and transformative force.

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.

People’s Climate March – To Change Everything We Need Everyone Screen Print 18 x 24 inches Edition of 300 September 18, 2014. 'Most of you know that I am very concerned about the dangers of climate change. Dick Cheney said “if there is even a 1% chance of a terrorist attack, we must do everything in our power to be prepared”. 95% or more of the scientific community agrees that climate change is happening, and is a dramatic threat to the planet, yet far less is being done to fight climate change than to fight terrorism. It’s a good thing the streets of New York will be flooded soon — with hundreds of thousands of people demanding solutions to our out-of-control climate crisis. It’s both an honor and a calling of my conscience for me to contribute a poster to the People’s Climate March effort and get something urgent across about one of the biggest threats facing present and future generations. Lady Liberty and all of us are in trouble if we don’t push our leaders to take bold action.' -Shepard Fairey

  • Legislative Influence For Sale Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Shepard Fairey- OBEY Legislative Influence For Sale Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Legislative Influence For Sale 2-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Fine Art Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. 2011 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 450 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Democrat Propaganda Print of United States President Ronald Regan Holding Sign That Reads "Legislative Influence For Sale" like one side is innocent. "Legislative Influence For Sale" is a potent visual commentary by the renowned street artist Shepard Fairey, who rose to global recognition under the moniker OBEY. This artwork, created in 2011, is a limited edition, hand-pulled silkscreen print on fine art paper, and its rarity is underscored by its exclusivity: only 450 signed and numbered copies exist. Measuring 18x24 inches, this piece is not just art; it's a socio-political statement that challenges viewers to confront the intricacies of power, politics, and influence. Fairey's choice of imagery is both bold and thought-provoking. He presents a depiction of the 40th United States President, Ronald Reagan, holding a sign that proclaims, "Legislative Influence For Sale." The audacious portrayal hints at the complex interplay of political agendas, financial influences, and lobbying, suggesting that even the highest office might not be immune to corruption or undue influence. Furthermore, the artist's clever juxtaposition of implying that one side might be innocent plays with the ambiguity of political righteousness, forcing a reflection upon the nuances of political morality. In the realms of pop art, street art, and graffiti, artists often hold a mirror to society, urging introspection, critique, and, at times, activism. Shepard Fairey's piece stands tall within this tradition. His deliberate use of the silkscreen medium, historically associated with both fine art (think Andy Warhol) and protest (recalling posters and flyers), emphasizes the blend of aesthetic beauty and powerful messaging. Through "Legislative Influence For Sale," Fairey not only cements his place in the pantheon of street art legends but also reignites essential conversations about democracy, integrity, and the potential pitfalls of unchecked power.

    The High Cost Of Free Speech Limited Edition 2-Color Hand-Pulled Silkscreen Print on Speckled Cream Paper by Shepard Fairey Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. Punk rock ignited a lot of creative and philosophical things for me, and punk principles continuously remind me that speaking truth to power and questioning authority is paramount in life. The Dead Kennedys, The Clash, Black Flag, and the Circle Jerks are just a few of the groups that referenced injustices such as police brutality and abuse of power in their songs, inspiring me to speak out about the same subjects through my art. I have made a lot of lasting friendships through punk rock and its cultural offshoots. One of those friends is Sean Bonner, who began ordering my prints in the ’90s while he was art director for punk label Victory Records.

As both an activity and culture, skateboarding blew the doors open for me to see how creativity, fearlessness, independence, and style could let me paint my own story. To paraphrase Charles Bukowski, everything, worth saying or doing, dull or dangerous, is better with style. I learned the importance of style from skateboarding but I apply style to my art and pretty much anything else I can. My friend Blaize Blouin, the only pro skater from Charleston, S.C., where I grew up, used to say “trendy tricks come and go, but the need for style is constant”. When I picked up Hugh Holland’s Silver Skate 70’s book I was enthralled by all of the photos, but especially gripped by the shot of an unknown kid doing a stylish backside carve at the Kenter Canyon School banks in 1976. -Shepard Fairey

Signed & Numbered Screen Print 18 x 24 inches Edition of 500 October 18, 2016 I’ve been a big fan of the band Franz Ferdinand since they first hit the scene in 2003. Stylistically, Franz mixes a pinch of glam rock, a nice serving of post-punk and a bit of dance-punk to create a sound that is irresistibly infectious. The band is undeniably stylish in their fashion and their album artwork which is frequently inspired by Russian Constructivism, one of my biggest inspirations as well. The lyrics of singer Alex Kapranos are witty, charming, and often insightful about human nature. Franz Ferdinand is a band of style and substance. -Shepard Fairey

    Bad Brains Punk Showcase- Rock For Light 2-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. 2016 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 350 Artwork Size 18x24 Shepard Fairey's "Bad Brains Punk Showcase - Rock For Light" is a striking exemplar of the indelible impact of street pop art and graffiti artwork on the domain of music and culture. This two-color hand-pulled silkscreen print on cream speckle tone paper is a tribute to the legendary punk band Bad Brains, known for their explosive fusion of punk and reggae and their message of "Positive Mental Attitude." The limited edition print, part of a signed and numbered release of 350 pieces measuring 18x24 inches, encapsulates the raw energy and ethos of the band while also showcasing Fairey's iconic style that has become synonymous with the OBEY brand. Fairey, a street artist and graphic designer, rose to fame with his "Andre the Giant Has a Posse" sticker campaign, which later evolved into the OBEY Giant movement. This project aimed to stimulate curiosity and encourage people to question their relationship with their surroundings. The "Bad Brains Punk Showcase" piece continues Fairey's exploration of counterculture and music, prevalent themes throughout his body of work. His distinct approach to art, often characterized by bold, stylized images and a limited color palette, reflects his roots in the skateboarding scene and his admiration for the punk rock ethos. In this artwork, Fairey melds the band's iconography with his aesthetic to create a piece that is both a homage and a standalone work within the street pop art genre. The use of the star emblem, the dynamic composition, and the commanding typography are all hallmarks of Fairey's style while also paying respect to the cultural significance of Bad Brains. The result is a piece that resonates with fans of the band and Fairey's art, bridging the gap between music and visual art in a way symbolic of street pop art's role in contemporary culture. The artwork serves not only as a collector's item but also as an illustration of the synergy between visual art and music. It is a testament to the power of street pop art to transcend its origins and become a part of the cultural lexicon, capable of celebrating and immortalizing the pioneers of subcultures like punk rock. Fairey's "Bad Brains Punk Showcase - Rock For Light" is a vibrant reminder of the enduring legacy of Bad Brains and the rebellious spirit that fuels both their music and the world of street pop art.

"Know Your Rights" is a commanding serigraph by Shepard Fairey, an artist who has cemented his place in the contemporary art scene through works that intertwine the ethos of street art with the aesthetic of modern pop art. This piece, released on August 21, 2014, is particularly noteworthy not only for its bold political message but also for the meticulous craftsmanship that goes into the production of each print. As an extensive format work, measuring an impressive 42 x 42 inches, it makes an indelible mark on the viewer, both through its scale and its strikingly stark one-color presentation on varnished 100% cotton rag archival paper, complete with hand-deckled edges. Shepard Fairey is renowned for blending fine art with the raw, in-your-face quality of street art and graffiti, and "Know Your Rights" is a prime example of this synthesis. The piece is anchored by a central image featuring an open book titled "THE FUTURE IS UNWRITTEN," encapsulating a message of empowerment and the potential for change. This is framed by laurels and a lit torch, evoking classic motifs that signify victory, knowledge, and enlightenment. The bordering texts "OBEY PROPAGANDA" and "KNOW YOUR RIGHTS" play into Fairey's recurring themes of propaganda, control, and the dissemination of information, urging the viewer to question authority and the narratives they are presented with. Each print in this limited edition is signed and numbered by Fairey, signifying its authenticity and connection to the artist's hand. The decision to use a one-color palette speaks to the work's assertive simplicity and Fairey's skill in using contrast and texture to convey depth and resonance. It's a technique that mirrors his street art roots, where messages must be given quickly and memorably. The serigraph process, a labor-intensive method of screen printing, ensures that each impression is of the highest quality, with the varnishing on the cotton rag paper adding a durable, tactile finish that also enhances the visual impact. "Know Your Rights" stands as a powerful statement in Fairey's oeuvre, reflecting his social and political advocacy rendered through his distinct pop art lens. This artwork resonates with the immediacy of street art and carries the weight of historical art traditions, bridging contemporary concerns with timeless expressions of resistance and hope.

Shepard Fairey- OBEY> Pop Artist Graffiti Street Artworks

The Impactful Journey of Shepard Fairey and the OBEY Movement

Shepard Fairey, the artist behind the OBEY phenomenon, is a monumental figure in street pop art and graffiti artwork. Bursting onto the scene with his "Andre the Giant Has a Posse" sticker campaign in the late 1980s, Fairey's work has since evolved into a globally recognized brand, symbolizing a fusion of art, activism, and branding that has come to define modern street art. His work is characterized by bold, often provocative imagery that encourages viewers to question the mechanics of power structures and the role of media and propaganda in contemporary society. Fairey's approach to art is deeply rooted in the do-it-yourself ethos of punk rock and skateboarding cultures, which inform the anti-establishment themes prevalent in his work. His pieces often juxtapose symbols of authority with countercultural messages, creating a robust visual dialogue that challenges observers to reconsider their surroundings. Fairey's ability to disseminate his work widely, from urban walls to galleries to commercial products, has made his art accessible to a broad audience and helped elevate street art to mainstream recognition.

Shepard Fairey's Artistic Evolution and Signature Style

Over the years, Fairey's work has transcended its underground beginnings to command a significant presence in the art world. His iconic "Hope" poster, created during Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign, is perhaps one of the most recognized works of contemporary street art, epitomizing the potential for this medium to impact public discourse. Fairey's style—a combination of stenciling, collage, and painting—exemplifies his unique ability to blend fine art techniques with the grit and immediacy of street art. The signature style of Fairey's pieces, marked by a limited but striking color palette and recurring motifs such as the star, the sunburst, and the OBEY logo, is instantly recognizable and speaks to the artist's concerns with branding and the commodification of art and culture. By adopting mass communication and production methods, Fairey's work comments on and utilizes the very mechanisms it often critiques.

Shepard Fairey's Contributions to Street Pop Art and Cultural Discourse

As an artist, Shepard Fairey has played a crucial role in advancing street pop art. His work has been instrumental in the dialogue about the legitimacy of street art and its place in cultural history. Fairey's art is not content to exist for aesthetic appreciation; it seeks to engage, provoke, and inspire action, reflecting his deeply held belief in art as a catalyst for social and political change. Moreover, Fairey's collaborations with other artists and forays into different mediums—from murals to music album covers to fashion—reflect the interdisciplinary nature of street art. His work with Niagara on 'Tomorrow's Another Night' and other collaborations highlight his commitment to creative partnerships that push the boundaries of traditional art forms and expand the reach of street-inspired aesthetics. Shepard Fairey is a pillar of the street pop art movement. His OBEY campaign has grown from a grassroots sticker initiative into a multifaceted project that encompasses art, design, activism, and apparel, illustrating the expansive potential of street art. Through his diverse body of work, Fairey continues to challenge perceptions, encourage public engagement, and leave an indelible mark on the cultural landscape. His legacy includes his iconic visual contributions and his commitment to the power of art as a tool for empowerment and change.
