AK-47 Lotus- Large Format Limited Edition Hand Pulled 4-Color Serigraph Print on Custom Cotton Coventry Rag Paper by Graffiti Street Artist Shepard Fairey. 2022 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 100 Artwork Size 30x41 In the rich tapestry of modern art, the AR-15 Lily serigraph by Shepard Fairey holds a distinct place. A contemporary masterpiece, this large-format print, sized at an impressive 30x41, is a testament to Fairey's impeccable craftsmanship and profound insight into social issues. A product of the year 2022, the AR-15 Lily, alongside its counterpart, the AK-47 Lotus, reflects Fairey's inspiration from the iconic Vietnam War protesters. These brave souls, in a symbolic gesture of peace, would insert flowers into the gun barrels of the National Guard, who were present to curtail their passionate calls for peace. Shepard Fairey, a renowned graffiti street artist, is known for intertwining pop culture, street art, and pressing social issues in his works, and this piece is no exception. His choice of a 4-color serigraph technique for this limited edition of 100 pieces exudes exclusivity and class. The print, meticulously crafted on Custom Cotton Coventry Rag Paper, evokes feelings of nostalgia and the age-old conflict between violence and peace. Fairey’s perspective, as he expresses, is deeply pacifistic. His work is not just an artistic expression but a call for diplomacy and harmony, both on international terrains and domestic fronts. While he does not challenge the Second Amendment, his emphasis is on reducing unnecessary deaths due to gun violence. In a world where the lines between art and activism often blur, Fairey's commitment to supporting causes shines through. A portion of the proceeds from this artwork, for instance, aids Brady United, an organization dedicated to preventing gun violence. The AR-15 Lily is not just a piece of art; it's a bold statement, a call for reflection, and a testament to Fairey’s unwavering commitment to promoting peace. "The AK-47 Lotus and AR-15 Lily large format serigraphs are inspired by Vietnam War protesters who would put flowers in the gun barrels of the National Guard who were brought in to suppress their protests for peace. I’m a pacifist, whether that means finding diplomatic solutions to prevent and avoid war internationally or finding diplomatic solutions to prevent and avoid gun violence at home. I’m not anti- Second Amendment, so trolls can calm down… I’m not interested in macho blathering, I just want fewer people to die unnecessarily. Brady United is doing good work preventing gun violence so they will receive a portion of proceeds from these two prints. Thanks for caring.⁠" -Shepard Fairey

Obey Conformity Trance- Black 2-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Cream Speckle Tone Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. 18 inches by 24 inches Edition of 350 February 10, 2021 Obey as a pseudo-command in my art has always been a form of reverse psychology. My philosophy is actually “question everything”. Conformity is often more unconscious than conscious… an adaptation to structures we may not agree with and a submission to unseen forces of manipulation… unseen because our eyes and minds are not open wide enough. People come up with conspiracy theories like “the Illuminati” to explain the feelings that they are cogs in someone else’s machine, but the deconstruction of power and control requires nothing more than a conscious and diligent examination of how power and influence upon the government accumulate and concentrate under capitalism.

The Greed Depression Large Format Silkscreen Print by NoName x Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled on Deckled Archival Cotton Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. 2023 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 80 Artwork Size 23.75x31.5 Silkscreen Print "My friend No Name and I collaborated recently on a print inspired by my cover for George Orwell’s “Down and Out in Paris and London” and our mutual irritation with greed and the brutality of many aspects of capitalism. No Name and I are both frustrated by the forces which convince much of the public to fall in line with a system that grinds them (and most of us) in its gears, and contributes to feelings of insecurity. With that in mind, don’t buy this print if you should use the money for something better or nothing at all. Should you think it over and still want a print, your money will support No Name’s public art endeavors and survival within the gears of capitalism… oh, and mine too! We both appreciate the support. No Name wrote about the print in greater depth, so I’ll let him take it from here!" -Shepard Fairey "I was introduced to Georg Orwell’s novels back in the late ’90s through my english teacher, an insignificant-looking sarcastic little man, who mantra-like implanted us the adage “use your common sense.” Nearly one decade later, I rediscovered Orwell’s books – and thoughts – through the appealing cover layout design by the kindred spirit street art activist Shepard Fairey, who I’m glad to call a friend today for many years. Shepard and I were discussing his illustration for “Down and Out” which he actually, for some reason, hadn’t made as a print edition yet. Due to the fact that Orwell’s dystopian books were/are one of the leading inspirations for our philosophy and work, Shepard offered to team up and use the illustration for a collaboration." -NoNAME

Flint Eye Alert Globe 4-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on French True White Art Paper by Artist Shepard Fairey Artwork. 2017 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 450 Size 18x24 “This piece is based on a painting I did for my ‘Earth Crisis’ show in Paris. The entire body of work for that show used these shades of blue/turquoise as a connection to the air and water that is essential to sustaining life on planet Earth. This piece is more specifically about the idea that we need to see what is right in front of us, that we are dependent on nature and I used the blooming flower as a symbol of both beauty and growth. If we keep ruining the air and water, things won’t grow, not to mention we’ll all get sick.”

Obey Icon VSE #12 HPM Stencil Spray Paint Original by Shepard Fairey x Ernesto Yerena Montejano x Hecho Con Ganas x Obey Hand-Painted Multiple Unique Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art on 100% Cotton Rag Fine Art Paper Framed. 2022 Signed & Numbered Edition #12 HPM Unique Original Spray Paint Artwork Size 20.5x26.5 VSE- Variable Stencil Edition Custom Mated and Framed "The "OBEY Icon" (Variable Stencil Edition) is a collaboration produced with my good friend and former co-worker Ernesto Yerena. Each piece is a stencil painting with unique variations in background painting and relief texture created with a thick application of acrylic medium through pattern stencils. The Obey Icon face evolved at the end of 1995 out of the desire to move further away from the association with Andre the Giant and toward a more streamlined and universal "Big Brother" (as in George Orwell's 1984) image." –Shepard Fairey Obey Icon VSE #12: Shepard Fairey and the Evolution of Surveillance Imagery in Street Pop Art Obey Icon VSE #12 represents a critical moment in the visual trajectory of Shepard Fairey, created in collaboration with artist Ernesto Yerena Montejano in 2022. This edition—part of the Variable Stencil Edition (VSE) series—is a 20.5 x 26.5 inch original spray paint piece on 100% cotton rag fine art paper. Signed and numbered, each print is unique, layered with hand-applied stencil work and spray-painted backgrounds. This version, labeled HPM #12, builds upon Fairey’s now-iconic Obey face by incorporating organic floral motifs, distressed textures, and a visually assertive red OBEY logo near the bottom. The central figure is the evolved version of Fairey’s original Andre the Giant icon, streamlined into a symbol with ambiguous power. As Fairey moved away from direct association with celebrity and toward ideological critique, this face became a representation of omnipresent authority. Influenced by George Orwell’s concept of Big Brother, the image no longer functions as parody—it has become an emblem of anonymous control and propaganda. The stencil format reinforces its reproducibility, aligning it with graffiti’s tradition of mass visual intervention while also preserving the aesthetic refinement found in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. Stencil Method as Commentary on Repetition and Power The hand-painted stencil technique used in Obey Icon VSE #12 is a deliberate visual language in itself. Fairey and Yerena build each work with layers of patterned textures and colored washes beneath the stark black facial features. These underlayers—often containing floral, ornamental, or textile-like patterns—soften the image’s authoritarian undertones while introducing visual contradiction. The face is harsh and emotionless, but the background is rich with cultural detail, especially in Yerena’s contributions which often draw on Mexican-American visual traditions. This clash reinforces the tension between systemic control and grassroots creativity. Spray paint drips, stencil misalignments, and layering imperfections are retained as aesthetic decisions rather than errors. These marks echo the history of street-based image-making where precision is often sacrificed for immediacy and message. Yet within this edition, those street elements are placed within the polished context of fine art materials—cotton rag paper, archival spray mediums, and custom framing. That duality plays with the boundaries between institutional art and insurgent expression. Collaborative Resistance and the Role of the Icon The collaboration between Shepard Fairey and Ernesto Yerena adds depth to the cultural subtext of Obey Icon VSE #12. Yerena’s Hecho Con Ganas movement is rooted in Chicano identity, social activism, and visual empowerment. The shared visual territory between Fairey and Yerena in this work situates the Obey face not just as a commentary on media and control, but as a multicultural symbol—one that can carry meaning in spaces impacted by surveillance, displacement, and systemic inequality. The image does not demand literal interpretation. Its power lies in its ambiguity. It recalls propaganda posters, corporate logos, revolutionary iconography, and even police sketches. Viewers project meaning onto it, shaped by their experiences with authority and imagery. In that way, the Obey face becomes a mirror of the visual systems that govern daily life—branding, ideology, control. Its framing and repetition across cities and galleries alike challenge the idea that art is separated from power. Obey Icon VSE #12 carries forward the legacy of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork by balancing aesthetic force with conceptual weight. It refuses to choose between rebellion and refinement. The image stares back, unchanged and unblinking, forcing a question: Is this face watching us—or are we the ones obeying its silent command?

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

The Man Who Walks Through Walls AP Artist Proof Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY x Blek le Rat Hand-Pulled on Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. AP Artist Proof 2008 Signed by Shepard Fairey & Blek le Rat & Marked AP, Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print. Shepard Fairey x Blek le Rat The Man Who Walks Through Walls AP Silkscreen Print 2008 The 2008 The Man Who Walks Through Walls AP Artist Proof silkscreen print is a rare collaboration between Shepard Fairey, internationally recognized as OBEY, and stencil pioneer Blek le Rat. Hand-pulled on fine art paper and measuring 18 x 24 inches, this limited edition Artist Proof was signed by both artists and marked “AP,” distinguishing it from the standard numbered edition of 100. As an Artist Proof, it holds particular value among collectors of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, symbolizing both artistic experimentation and the direct approval of the creators. Imagery and Urban Context The composition combines stark stencil work with a heavily graffitied wall, embedding the artwork within the raw energy of urban life. At the center, a suited man carries bags labeled with text, positioned alongside a goat, while a police officer passes in the foreground. To the right, a telephone booth punctuates the scene, grounding the work in the everyday architecture of the city. The layering of graffiti tags, political scrawls, and the surreal juxtaposition of figures evoke themes of consumerism, authority, and rebellion. The suited figure in particular hints at urban alienation, while the presence of the goat and booth adds absurdity, making the composition at once humorous and sharply critical. Collaboration Between Shepard Fairey and Blek le Rat Blek le Rat, born Xavier Prou in 1951 in France, is widely credited as the father of stencil graffiti, bringing social commentary directly into the streets of Paris beginning in the 1980s. Shepard Fairey, born in 1970 in Charleston, South Carolina, built his reputation through his OBEY sticker campaign and politically engaged prints, including the Hope poster of Barack Obama. Their collaborative works, such as The Man Who Walks Through Walls, highlight a shared belief in the role of public art as a platform for protest and dialogue. The merging of Fairey’s graphic sensibilities with Blek’s direct stencil approach emphasizes the continuity between two generations of politically minded street artists. Rarity and Significance of the Artist Proof The Artist Proof edition carries special weight within the print world, typically produced in very small quantities and often retained by the artists. Signed by both Shepard Fairey and Blek le Rat and marked AP, this print holds heightened collectible value and authenticity. Beyond rarity, its imagery and collaborative nature underscore the strength of street art as a vehicle for political and cultural critique. The Man Who Walks Through Walls AP silkscreen print is not just a fine art object but also a vivid statement on urban culture, consumerism, and resistance, making it a defining example within the history of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork.

Eyes On The King Verdict 4-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Fine Speckletone Art Paper by Shepard Fairey x Ted Soqui Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. 2022 Signed by Shepard Fairey & Ted Soqui, Numbered 18x24 inches. Screenprint on thick cream Speckletone paper. Numbered edition of 600. "I based this “Eyes on the King Verdict” print on photos taken by Ted Soqui during the LA riots of spring 1992. Ted has a long history of photographing activists and protests, which began after the “not guilty” verdicts on April 29, 1992, for the four officers who severely beat Rodney King. I especially love the central pic of a young woman protester in a Malcolm X hat contemplating the scene. I think it is important to consider the symbolic weight of the Rodney King verdict and the emotional impact on communities of color seeking justice and accountability. At the time, 30 years ago, I remember feeling enraged that such a blatant act of police brutality was going unpunished when it was captured on video. It is heartbreaking how frequently similar acts of violence and abuse of power by law enforcement have gone unpunished, even when caught on camera. I don’t ever condone violence or looting, but I understand why LA erupted in riots and protests after the King verdict. When people feel that the American system has failed them repeatedly, things can reach a boiling point. The urge to protest injustice and the right to do so are legitimate, even if looting is not legitimate. The LA riots were a tragic mixture. However, beware of those who try to conflate protest with “criminal agitation” or “inciting a riot.” When the system fails the people, it is nothing short of patriotic for the people to protest for a solution. Ted Soqui and I both signed the “Eyes on the King Verdict” print.” – Shepard

SF Fire Escape AP Artist Proof Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled Color on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. AP Artist Proof 2011 Signed by Shepard Fairey- OBEY & Marked AP Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print  SF Fire Escape AP by Shepard Fairey – Artist Proof Silkscreen Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork The SF Fire Escape AP Artist Proof silkscreen print by Shepard Fairey, produced in 2011, is a rare and impactful piece of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. This edition is signed by the artist and marked AP, denoting it as an Artist Proof distinct from the standard numbered run. The 18 by 24 inch screenprint was created on cream Speckletone fine art paper, a preferred medium for Fairey's hand-pulled works that allows for deep saturation and texture while maintaining archival integrity. Rendered in Fairey’s signature color palette of red, black, and off-white, this work reflects both his graphic design roots and his engagement with urban visual language. It presents a sharp architectural composition of a city scene featuring a fire escape, directional signage, and a familiar visage of the Obey Giant—an image that continues to serve as an anchor in Fairey's expansive catalog of visual resistance. Architectural Symbols and Urban Instruction This artwork immerses the viewer in the structured language of a city landscape, where fire escapes, windows, billboards, and building facades form a rigid system of navigation. The vertical and diagonal lines of the fire escape ladder and support beams fragment the space, giving a visual sense of entrapment or escape, depending on interpretation. A one-way sign reads no turns, emphasizing the illusion of freedom in a world filled with constraints. These directional cues play directly into Fairey’s critique of control mechanisms embedded in modern society. Through the use of screenprint layering and flat color fields, the artist isolates the experience of moving through controlled environments and highlights the architecture not as shelter but as signal. Obey Iconography as Watchful Presence The inclusion of the Obey Giant face within the window transforms an anonymous city structure into a subversive billboard. The face is not advertised but embedded, gazing from the inside out. It resists being consumed and instead looks back at the viewer. This silent presence underscores Shepard Fairey’s commentary on surveillance, authority, and cultural branding. Rather than remain outside of the built environment, his iconography has infiltrated the everyday, becoming part of the structure itself. As an Artist Proof, this particular print is a closer representation of Fairey’s intent, often reserved for personal use, exhibition circulation, or early release. It carries a stronger weight in terms of rarity and proximity to the original print development process. Screenprint Technique and Political Form Shepard Fairey’s silkscreen method is deeply connected to the legacy of protest poster art and graffiti stenciling. SF Fire Escape AP does not mimic graffiti—it elevates its ethos by repurposing urban symbols into controlled compositions on paper. Fairey’s repeated use of red and black signals urgency and authority, while the clean lines and grid-like layout suggest modernism stripped of comfort. The technique ensures precision while allowing for a handmade energy that reinforces its position within Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. As an Artist Proof, it offers collectors and scholars insight into Fairey’s design refinement process, often with slight color or alignment differences that make each AP print unique. The work balances raw city experience with formal visual order, making it a compelling artifact of twenty-first century visual protest.

Muhammad Ali Heavyweight Ideals Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled on Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork. 2023 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 500 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print of Boxer Muhammad Ali Face As Young Man in A Suit. "Based on an incredible photo by Howard Bingham provided by his son Dustin, I wanted to emphasize Ali's role as an outspoken citizen and activist. Ali was a civil rights activist, a conscientious objector to the Vietnam War, a philanthropist, and a U.N. Messenger of Peace. I admire that Ali stood up for what he believed even when he potentially faced jail and the end of his boxing career. The Chestnut St. YMCA, where we painted the Ali mural, is blocks from Ali's childhood school and a place he frequented in his youth. I'm very grateful to the YMCA for providing an incredible wall with an authentic connection to Ali's life. A project of this magnitude can't come to fruition without many people collaborating generously." -Shepard Fairey. Few names in pop and street art have achieved as much recognition and influence as Shepard Fairey, the creative force behind the OBEY brand. Fairey's "Muhammad Ali Heavyweight Ideals" silkscreen print is a testament to his craftsmanship as an artist and his dedication to spotlighting iconic figures with profound cultural significance. Drawing inspiration from a striking photograph by Howard Bingham, Fairey's depiction of a young Muhammad Ali in a suit is a compelling reflection of the boxer's legacy beyond the ring. This piece doesn't just highlight Ali as a world-class athlete but as a man deeply embedded in the socio-political issues of his time. Ali's vehement opposition to the Vietnam War, his role in the civil rights movement, and his later endeavors as a philanthropist and U.N. Messenger of Peace symbolize a life of purpose and conviction. In his tribute, Fairey magnifies these ideals, portraying Ali as a boxing legend and an activist willing to jeopardize his career and personal freedom for his beliefs. The choice of venue for the mural, the Chestnut St. YMCA, holds a poignant significance. Located blocks from Ali's childhood school and a regular spot for the young boxer, the YMCA wall is an authentic canvas, connecting Ali's formative years with his enduring legacy. Through this artwork, Fairey's intricate detailing, combined with his nuanced understanding of Ali's life, elevates the narrative of street and pop art. It underscores the potential of this medium to not only captivate visually but to instigate reflection on the profound impact of its subjects on history and culture.

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.

Peoples Climate March- To Change Everything We Need Everyone Limited Edition 3-Color Hand-Pulled Silkscreen Print on Fine Art Paper by Shepard Fairey Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 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

AP Artist Proof 2021 Signed & AP Marked Original Run Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print of Red Lotus Flower & Electric Power Lines. "These Flower Power prints are a symbolic urge for a concerted effort to transition off of fossil fuels and to sustainable energy sources. Life, as we know it on Earth, will depend on this transition happening with the support of citizens, government, and corporations. Read "This Changes Everything" by Naomi Klein if you'd like a strong analysis of the severity of the climate crisis and the urgency to transition off of fossil fuels. Proceeds from these prints will benefit 350.org to support their work around the climate emergency. Thanks for caring." -Shepard Fairey Shepard Fairey, the mind behind the iconic OBEY imagery, once again channels his signature blend of street and pop art in the "Flower Power Red AP" silkscreen print. An emblem of countercultural movement, Fairey's piece presents a striking juxtaposition of the serene blue lotus flower against the industrial backdrop of electric power lines. Cast on Speckletone Fine Art Paper, this hand-pulled screen print not only exemplifies the artist's meticulous craftsmanship but also carries a poignant and timely message. The "Flower Power" series, which this print is a part of, stands as a clarion call for humanity's pivot from environmentally harmful fossil fuels to more sustainable energy sources. This transition, as Fairey suggests, is not just a matter of technological or economic feasibility; it is an imperative for the continuity of life as we understand it. The reference to Naomi Klein's "This Changes Everything" underscores the severity of the looming climate crisis, offering readers a comprehensive analysis of our current ecological predicament and the urgency with which we must act. Beyond its aesthetic appeal and socio-political commentary, the artwork demonstrates Fairey's commitment to environmental advocacy. Proceeds from the sale of these prints are directed to 350.org, an organization at the forefront of the global movement to address climate change. Such initiatives are emblematic of Fairey's approach to art — one that is not just visually stimulating but also deeply rooted in activism and the broader call to collective action. Through this masterful piece, Shepard Fairey once again reiterates the power of art in shaping conversations, influencing change, and fostering a more conscious global community.

SF Fire Escape Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled Color on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. 2011 Signed by Shepard Fairey- OBEY & Numbered Limited Edition of 450 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print  SF Fire Escape by Shepard Fairey - Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork in Urban Symbolism Shepard Fairey’s 2011 silkscreen print titled SF Fire Escape captures the architectural and cultural energy of San Francisco through the lens of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. Printed on cream Speckletone fine art paper in a signed and numbered edition of 450, this 18 by 24 inch hand-pulled silkscreen distills Fairey’s signature use of graphic contrast and political commentary into a dynamic composition of urban geometry. Utilizing his iconic red, black, and cream palette, the work presents a striking fire escape cutting across a modern building facade, marked with the bold face of Fairey’s now-famous Obey Giant icon peering through a window. The structure’s vertical lines intersect with diagonal staircases while an urban billboard pronounces no turns and one way, placing metaphorical emphasis on control, restriction, and the illusion of directional certainty. Architectural Linework and Urban Power Structures Fairey’s SF Fire Escape transforms mundane urban design into charged visual content. The fire escape, typically seen as a symbol of safety or last resort, becomes a jagged line of escape from conformity. Its stark white angles against the rigid grid of the building evoke urgency and possibility. The red and black panels lend a sense of urgency and institutional rigidity, while the silhouetted billboard adds a layer of societal direction or imposed path. Fairey’s placement of the Obey Giant face within the fire escape window interrupts the grid with an unexpected humanized symbol, referencing the artist’s ongoing critique of media saturation, surveillance, and systemic structures. It also acts as a quiet observer embedded in the architecture, watching yet contained. Screenprint as Political Medium in Street Pop Art Silkscreen printing has long served as Fairey’s chosen tool for reproducing messages quickly and accessibly. SF Fire Escape continues this legacy by maintaining the aesthetics of poster-making while functioning as a collectible art object. The choice of cream Speckletone paper, combined with bold silkscreened layers of ink, recalls the DIY ethos of flyposted propaganda art found throughout city streets. Fairey’s refined yet aggressive visual language harnesses the technique of repetition, limited color palette, and contrast to amplify urgency and power. This composition doesn’t merely portray an architectural moment but translates the city’s built environment into a metaphor for cultural lockdown and authoritarian cues masquerading as guidance. Embedded Iconography and Urban Resistance The Obey Giant face is not simply branding or ornament—it operates as a resistance symbol embedded in the built fabric of city life. By placing this face within the context of an urban fire escape, Fairey plays with the idea of surveillance, autonomy, and escape. His use of directional signage adds a layer of irony, questioning whether individuals in modern society are truly free to choose paths or simply navigating a framework of control. SF Fire Escape exemplifies Shepard Fairey’s ongoing role in reshaping contemporary Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork into socially reactive and politically charged print-based media, grounded in both the visual language of rebellion and the structure of the everyday.

Open Minds 4-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Cream Speckletone Art Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. Signed & Numbered Screen Print OPEN MINDS 36 inches by 24 inches Edition of 675 February 3, 2022 Handling Creases to Bottom Left & Right Margins. This “Open Minds” print references the language used by the powerful fuel industry lobby to soften political and public resistance to fracking. Fracking is a form of gas extraction which beyond the carbon impact of the gas itself, contaminates groundwater, pollutes the air, and creates strains on water resources because of the high volume of water required for the fracking process. Open-mindedness about any of those detrimental impacts of fracking and other fossil fuel extraction is absurd if one cares about the environment, air and water quality, and global warming. Powerful corporations and their lobbyists spend exorbitant sums to distract from and discredit the science-based conversation about the environment. I’m all for open minds and open eyes when it comes to putting science and the welfare of the planet before corporate profits. A portion of the proceeds from this print will benefit Greenpeace to support its work to enhance environmental protections and combat climate change. – Shepard

AR-15 Lily- Large Format Limited Edition Hand Pulled 4-Color Serigraph Print on Custom Cotton Coventry Rag Paper by Graffiti Street Artist Shepard Fairey. 2022 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 100 Artwork Size 30x41 In the rich tapestry of modern art, the AR-15 Lily serigraph by Shepard Fairey holds a distinct place. A contemporary masterpiece, this large-format print, sized at an impressive 30x41, is a testament to Fairey's impeccable craftsmanship and profound insight into social issues. A product of the year 2022, the AR-15 Lily, alongside its counterpart, the AK-47 Lotus, reflects Fairey's inspiration from the iconic Vietnam War protesters. These brave souls, in a symbolic gesture of peace, would insert flowers into the gun barrels of the National Guard, who were present to curtail their passionate calls for peace. Shepard Fairey, a renowned graffiti street artist, is known for intertwining pop culture, street art, and pressing social issues in his works, and this piece is no exception. His choice of a 4-color serigraph technique for this limited edition of 100 pieces exudes exclusivity and class. The print, meticulously crafted on Custom Cotton Coventry Rag Paper, evokes feelings of nostalgia and the age-old conflict between violence and peace. Fairey’s perspective, as he expresses, is deeply pacifistic. His work is not just an artistic expression but a call for diplomacy and harmony, both on international terrains and domestic fronts. While he does not challenge the Second Amendment, his emphasis is on reducing unnecessary deaths due to gun violence. In a world where the lines between art and activism often blur, Fairey's commitment to supporting causes shines through. A portion of the proceeds from this artwork, for instance, aids Brady United, an organization dedicated to preventing gun violence. The AR-15 Lily is not just a piece of art; it's a bold statement, a call for reflection, and a testament to Fairey’s unwavering commitment to promoting peace. "The AK-47 Lotus and AR-15 Lily large format serigraphs are inspired by Vietnam War protesters who would put flowers in the gun barrels of the National Guard who were brought in to suppress their protests for peace. I’m a pacifist, whether that means finding diplomatic solutions to prevent and avoid war internationally or finding diplomatic solutions to prevent and avoid gun violence at home. I’m not anti- Second Amendment, so trolls can calm down… I’m not interested in macho blathering, I just want fewer people to die unnecessarily. Brady United is doing good work preventing gun violence so they will receive a portion of proceeds from these two prints. Thanks for caring.⁠" -Shepard Fairey

Shows a Hand Removing Laws From A Brief Case Infering Wall Street Money Regulations. "Jamie has been one of my biggest influences, and I'm honored that we worked on some collaborative images for the show. The new images deal with the mutual interests of Jamie and I, addressing the timeless problems of corruption and wealth inequality, but tie into the current themes of Occupy Wall Street and the dead end of fossil fuel consumption." -Shepard Fairey. Shepard Fairey and Jamie Reid: Art as Social Commentary In collaboration with Jamie Reid, the "Shoplifters Welcome Silkscreen Print" by Shepard Fairey is a powerful example of how street pop art and graffiti artwork can encapsulate and critique social and economic issues. This piece, a limited edition print, was created for the "Ragged Kingdom" exhibition from March 16 to April 14, 2012. It has become a significant work in street art for its bold political statement. The artwork depicts a hand removing a document labeled "MONEY" from a briefcase, a visual representation of deregulation, particularly within the context of Wall Street. This act is set against an offer for 'shoplifters,' a satirical nod to the notion that the financial elite operates under a different set of rules than the average person. The print's striking use of the phrase "THIS DECADE ONLY!" further emphasizes the timely nature of the message, suggesting a window of opportunity for unchecked financial behavior. Art Reflecting the Times: Occupy Wall Street and Beyond Shepard Fairey's statement about the collaboration with Jamie Reid highlights their shared focus on corruption and wealth inequality themes, notably echoed by the Occupy Wall Street movement. The movement, which started in 2011, brought widespread attention to these issues, and Fairey and Reid's work provided a visual commentary that resonated with the public sentiment of the time. The artwork not only represents the artists' perspectives but also serves as a historical marker of the socio-economic climate of the early 2010s. The "Shoplifters Welcome" print is a prime example of how street pop art and graffiti artwork can transcend the boundaries of traditional art by directly engaging with social commentary. Fairey, known for his provocative approach, and Reid, with his history of punk aesthetic, combine their styles to create a piece that is as aggressive as it is artistic. The limited edition nature of the print, signed and numbered by Fairey, adds to its allure as a collectible item, even as it challenges the structures of economic power. In creating this print, Fairey and Reid employ the aesthetic of propaganda, utilizing bold colors and stark contrasts to draw attention to their message. The choice of silkscreen printing, a technique closely associated with street art due to its mass production capabilities, further ties the work to the grassroots nature of its messages. It is a medium that allows the artwork to be disseminated widely, mirroring the spread of ideas central to movements like Occupy Wall Street. The "Shoplifters Welcome" print is a testament to the enduring power and relevance of street pop art and graffiti artwork in contemporary discourse. It is a reminder that art can be an intelligent tool for social critique, reflecting the issues of its time and prompting conversations that can lead to change. Through their collaborative efforts, Fairey and Reid have created more than just a visual piece; they have crafted a narrative that challenges viewers to consider the imagery's deeper implications and question the status quo.

Styles Change Style Endures- Magenta 2-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Cream Speckle Tone Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. 14.5 inches by 19 inches Edition of 115 June 18, 2020 Skateboarding saved my life! 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

Barb Wire Dove Collage Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled on Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. 2023 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 450 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print Barb Wire Dove Collage Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey The Barb Wire Dove Collage is a 2023 hand-pulled silkscreen print by Shepard Fairey (OBEY), produced as a signed and numbered limited edition of 450. Printed at 18 x 24 inches on Speckletone fine art paper, the work exemplifies Fairey’s mature collage-driven style, where iconic symbols are reassembled into layered political statements. The dove, a recurring motif throughout Fairey’s career, is rendered in bold cream tones against a black circular field, immediately drawing the eye while anchoring the composition with visual clarity and symbolic weight. Symbolism, Pattern, and Political Tension At the center of the image, the dove clutches a strand of barbed wire rather than an olive branch, transforming a universal symbol of peace into one marked by restriction, conflict, and unresolved struggle. Surrounding it, Fairey builds a dense patchwork of patterns inspired by global decorative traditions, currency engravings, and protest-era graphic textures. The fractured red, gold, teal, and blue background feels both ornamental and confrontational, suggesting cultural richness colliding with violence and control. This tension between beauty and brutality is intentional, reinforcing Fairey’s long-standing critique of power structures that commodify peace while perpetuating conflict. The distressed overlays and visible “collage” seams give the work a street-poster immediacy, as if it were torn from walls layered with history and dissent. Significance Within Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Within Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork, Barb Wire Dove Collage stands as a distilled example of Shepard Fairey’s activist ethos. It merges clean graphic iconography with complex political messaging, making the piece accessible at a glance yet rewarding deeper reading. The relatively large edition size reflects Fairey’s belief in democratic distribution of ideas rather than exclusivity, while the hand-pulled silkscreen process preserves the tactile authenticity valued by collectors. For those collecting OBEY works, this print sits comfortably alongside Fairey’s most recognizable peace and protest imagery, offering a visually striking reminder that peace is not passive, but contested, fragile, and worth defending.

The image is set against a backdrop of stylistic elements and the words "Rise Above," which serve as an encouraging motto and a tribute to the artist's favorite song by the band Black Flag. This piece symbolizes Fairey's larger body of work, which often intersects with the themes of rebellion and peace, a juxtaposition at the heart of much street pop and graffiti artwork. The term' rise above' does not merely suggest an elevation in position or status; it is an ideological summons, urging viewers to surpass the ordinary, to overcome adversity, and to reject complacency. Fairey's artistry here is not just in the piece's visual appeal but also in its capability to provoke thought and inspire action. Shepard Fairey's influence in modern street pop and graffiti artwork is undeniable. His works are infused with political and social undertones, calling for a challenge to the status quo and advocating for a radical form of peace that aligns with the punk ethos. The "Rise Above Bird" is a testament to Fairey's consistent vision, which has solidified his place as a pivotal figure in contemporary art. It stands as a bold statement in the ongoing dialogue about the power of art to enact change and the artist's role in a society that often needs to be reminded to look beyond the surface.

Florence Aubenas Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY x Blek le Rat Hand-Pulled on Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. 2008 Signed by Shepard Fairey & Blek le Rat, Numbered Limited Edition of 100 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print Shepard Fairey x Blek le Rat Florence Aubenas Silkscreen Print 2008 The 2008 Florence Aubenas silkscreen print represents a rare collaboration between American street artist Shepard Fairey, known as OBEY, and French stencil pioneer Blek le Rat. Measuring 18 x 24 inches, this hand-pulled silkscreen was produced in a signed and numbered limited edition of only 100. Each print bears the signatures of both artists, cementing its importance as a cross-generational dialogue within Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. The subject, French journalist Florence Aubenas, was abducted and held hostage in Iraq in 2005, making the work a powerful symbol of resilience and the role of art in amplifying human rights issues. Imagery and Symbolism The print merges Shepard Fairey’s graphic, politically charged style with Blek le Rat’s classic stencil approach. Set against the backdrop of Place Saint-Michel in Paris, the work integrates photography and stencil to create a layered street-inspired composition. Aubenas is portrayed standing calmly, her figure rendered in stark black stencil against the stone wall, evoking Blek le Rat’s street interventions. This contrasts with the detailed urban surroundings captured in Fairey’s silkscreen process, creating a tension between the permanence of historical architecture and the urgency of contemporary political struggle. The placement of the figure beneath the street sign grounds the work firmly in Paris, while also symbolizing the global reach of her story. Collaboration Between Icons Blek le Rat, born Xavier Prou in France in 1951, is regarded as one of the founders of stencil graffiti, influencing generations of street artists worldwide, including Banksy. Shepard Fairey, born in Charleston, South Carolina in 1970, rose to prominence through his OBEY campaign and politically charged works such as the Hope poster of Barack Obama. Their collaboration on Florence Aubenas brought together two distinct but complementary approaches: Blek’s commitment to the power of direct stencil imagery in public space and Fairey’s graphic design-driven activism. The result is a work that resonates both as a political statement and as a landmark in the history of street art. Political Resonance and Artistic Legacy This silkscreen print underscores how art can become a tool of awareness and advocacy. By immortalizing Florence Aubenas in their visual language, Fairey and Blek le Rat highlight the risks faced by journalists working in conflict zones and the importance of freedom of expression. With its limited edition size, dual signatures, and thematic depth, the Florence Aubenas print is considered a significant collector’s piece, not only for fans of Shepard Fairey and Blek le Rat but also for those who recognize the importance of socially engaged art. It remains a striking example of how Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork can transcend aesthetics to confront urgent political realities.

Cut it Up Do it Yourself 2-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Cream Speckle Tone Paper by Shepard Fairey x Beyond The Streets Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. 2018 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 550 Print Size 18x24 May 8, 2018 "ABOUT The Cut it Up – Do it Yourself print is an iteration of my Obey Icon Face inspired by my history of using an X-acto knife to create designs, make collages, cut spray-paint stencils, and cut illustrations from Rubylith (a graphic art and screen printing film). Many of my well-known images, including the Obey Icon Face, were created using an X-acto, a marker, a photocopier, and cut and paste techniques before I knew how to use a computer. The computer is a great tool, but it can be too safe and sterile… Don’t be afraid to cut things up, make mistakes, and get some overspray on pristine paper!" -Shepard Fairey

Idiocracy AP Artist Proof Limited Edition 4-Color Hand-Pulled Silkscreen Print on Fine Art Paper by Shepard Fairey, Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. AP Artist Proof 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 Idiocracy AP Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey Idiocracy is a 2016 Artist Proof silkscreen print by Shepard Fairey, created as a sharp visual homage to the cult-classic film Idiocracy. This hand-pulled, 4-color screen print measures 18 x 24 inches and was produced in a signed and numbered Artist Proof edition drawn from a total run of 550. Printed on fine art paper, the piece reflects Fairey’s long-standing interest in using pop culture as a vehicle for pointed social and political commentary. Visual Language, Satire, and Cultural Commentary The composition borrows heavily from vintage propaganda aesthetics, featuring bold red, black, and gold tones, strong geometric framing, and authoritative typography. Central to the image is a faucet dispensing “electrolytes” directly onto a human brain, a biting visual metaphor drawn from the film’s fictional brand “Brawndo.” Phrases like “WHAT BRAINS CRAVE!” and “THE SMART MUTILATOR” reinforce the satirical critique of anti-intellectualism, consumer culture, and the erosion of critical thinking. Fairey’s use of exaggerated symbolism mirrors the film’s humor while amplifying its warning about the consequences of cultural complacency. Shepard Fairey, Idiocracy, and Collector Significance Shepard Fairey has consistently used irony, humor, and recognizable imagery to challenge power structures and cultural trends, and Idiocracy fits squarely within that lineage. By translating the film’s message into a bold graphic poster, Fairey bridges cinema, street art, and political art in a way that is both accessible and confrontational. As an Artist Proof tied to a widely referenced satirical film, this print holds strong appeal for collectors of OBEY works, pop culture art, and socially driven contemporary prints. Its blend of humor, critique, and classic Fairey iconography makes it a standout piece within his pop-culture-inspired body of work.

Demagogue 2-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Cream Speckle Tone Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist For Musician Franz Ferdinand. 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

Know Your Rights- Large Format Limited Edition Hand Pulled 1-Color Serigraph Print on Varnished 100% Cotton Rag Archival Paper with hand-deckled edges by Shepard Fairey Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2014 Signed & Numbered Serigraph Artwork 42 x 42 inchesAugust 21, 201. 42 x 42 Large Format Serigraph.1 Color printed on Varnished 100% Cotton Rag Archival Paper. "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.

Floral Takeover 2017 Cream Red 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. Floral Takeover 2017 Cream Red by Shepard Fairey Floral Takeover 2017 Cream Red is a hand-pulled silkscreen print by Shepard Fairey, released in 2017 as a signed and numbered limited edition of 200. Printed in two colors on cream Speckletone fine art paper, the artwork measures 18 x 24 inches. This version reverses the color balance of the companion print, placing red as the dominant field with cream floral forms layered throughout, creating a more saturated and commanding visual presence. Ornament as Occupation While rooted in decorative floral motifs reminiscent of wallpaper and textile design, Floral Takeover functions as more than ornamentation. Fairey uses repetition, scale, and bold contrast to turn pattern into visual force. The dense layering and assertive red ground echo his street practice, where imagery is used to claim space and attention. By presenting a repeat pattern as a standalone artwork, Fairey blurs the line between background design and foreground statement, transforming something traditionally passive into something confrontational and intentional. Context Within the OBEY Pattern Series This print is part of a four-version Floral Takeover series developed from patterns originally created for street installations and murals. Over time, these designs evolved into fine art editions that reflect Fairey’s interest in propaganda aesthetics, historical ornament, and visual saturation. The Cream Red variant stands out for its intensity and graphic clarity, offering a bolder counterpoint to the inverse colorway. Together, the series highlights Fairey’s ability to merge design, street art, and fine art into works that are visually elegant while still carrying the unmistakable authority of the OBEY aesthetic.

This Land Is Your Land 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 Inspired Man Mountains Barbed Wire & The Phrase "No Trespassing This Land Is My Land" This Land Is Your Land AP Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey This Land Is Your Land is a 2012 Artist Proof silkscreen print by Shepard Fairey, the American artist known for his OBEY project and his role in shaping contemporary Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. The print was hand-pulled on speckletone fine art paper and released as a signed and AP marked work from the original run. Measuring 18 x 24 inches, this Artist Proof edition stands apart from the standard release due to its rarity and direct connection to Fairey’s studio practice. The image features a solemn male figure set against mountainous terrain, intersected by horizontal strands of barbed wire, accompanied by the confrontational text No Trespassing This Land Is My Land. The work draws conceptual inspiration from American folk and protest music, including themes associated with Neil Young, while reframing them within Fairey’s established visual language. Imagery, Typography, and Political Symbolism The central figure is rendered in Fairey’s signature graphic style, combining sharp contrasts with layered textures that evoke both screen printing traditions and weathered urban surfaces. The mountains in the background function as symbols of natural heritage and national identity, while the barbed wire cutting across the composition introduces tension, restriction, and exclusion. The bold typography anchors the message, transforming familiar patriotic phrasing into a statement of conflict rather than unity. By altering the sentiment from shared land to contested territory, Fairey highlights contradictions within American narratives around ownership, borders, and access. The red, white, and blue palette reinforces the political undertone, referencing national symbolism while simultaneously critiquing how those symbols are deployed. Cultural Context and Lasting Relevance Created during a period of heightened debate around land use, private ownership, and civil liberties, This Land Is Your Land reflects Shepard Fairey’s ongoing engagement with power structures and social justice. The work aligns with his broader practice of using Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork to provoke dialogue rather than offer comfort. By blending music inspired cultural references with visual barriers like barbed wire, Fairey underscores how ideals of freedom and equality are often constrained by policy, economics, and ideology. The Artist Proof status further emphasizes the significance of this piece, positioning it as both a collectible artifact and a pointed cultural statement. Within Fairey’s body of work, this print remains a clear example of how graphic art can function as visual protest, rooted in historical symbolism while addressing contemporary realities.

Moon Over Biloxi- White 1-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Fine Art Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art Famous Pop Artwork Artist. White Variant Signed & Numbered Moon Over Biloxi Screen Print 18 x 24 inches Edition of 200 July 27, 2010. "The title of this print “Moon Over Biloxi” is a tribute to the Dead Kennedy’s song “Moon Over Marin”. In 1984 I picked up maybe my 4th punk record which was the 2nd Dead Kennedy’s album “Plastic Surgery Disasters”. The album is a great listen all the way through and includes some blistering tunes like “Riot” and “Bleed For Me” laced with social commentary. The surprise song though is “Moon Over Marin”… detractors have called it the Dead Kennedy’s “U2” song, but I disagree. “Moon Over Marin” is more melodic than most DK, but juxtaposed with the darkness of the lyrics, the song evokes a powerful sense of existential melancholy. I think the concept that struck me, and stuck with me, is that our disrespect of each other and the planet may doom us, but things will continue without us. I think it is healthy to recognize impermanence, but also to appreciate the value of the ephemeral. Moonlight, real or electric, will probably be around, but what it will be casting light on is the real question. There will always be a moon over Biloxi." -Shepard

Warning: Addictive- Orange Limited Edition Silkscreen Skateboard deck art by street pop culture artist Shepard Fairey OBEY. Signed on Front With Marker. Warning Addictive Skate Deck. Numbered edition of 400. Signed by Shepard Fairey. I've been a big fan of Andy Howell's art and skateboarding since the late '80s, and I watched eagerly as he and his partners launched New Deal Skateboards in 1990. New Deal was groundbreaking not only because skaters creatively led it, but because Andy Howell's art and design almost instantly shifted the aesthetics and style of skateboarding from skulls and dragons to graffiti and hip-hop. New Deal was the first company primarily focused on street skating and street culture, and their smart, funny, ads celebrated their role as the "power to the people," "ear to the street" vanguard of skater-owned-and-run companies. Straight out of the gate New Deal set the tone for the '90s. -Shepard
