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 Black Red 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.

Rise Above Bird Letterpress Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled on Cream Cotton Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Pop Culture Artist. 2021 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 450 Artwork Size 13x10 Letterpress Print of Bird with Flower Flying & Words Rise Above "The Rise Above Bird " is a simple twist on the white peace dove with an olive branch, but good guys don't always wear white! The "rise above" is a call to take the high road with a nod to one of my favorite Black Flag songs. Peace is radical punk!" -Shepard Fairey- OBEY. Shepard Fairey's "Rise Above Bird" letterpress print emerges as a striking piece of visual commentary in street and pop art. The artwork, a limited edition hand-pulled print on cream cotton fine art paper, showcases Fairey's adeptness at blending strong messages with iconic imagery. Limited to a series of 450, each piece is signed and numbered by the artist, reflecting its exclusivity and collectible nature. The print, measuring 13x10 inches, features a bird in mid-flight, carrying a flower—a symbol that deviates from the traditional white peace dove. 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.

Moreover, the print is adorned with graffiti elements, which are not only a nod to the artist's roots but also add a layer of depth and texture to the narrative of the artwork.

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 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.

AS220 is important to me because they have cultivated a creative community that continues to have a profoundly transformative impact on the city. I’m inspired by Anjel’s dedication to this organization, where she’s been a member since she was 13 years old, learning from a diverse set of communities and facilitating access to opportunities for young people across the city of Providence. Thank you Anjel and AS220 for all that you do for the people of Rhode Island!⁠" -Shepard Fairey- OBEY In the vibrant intersection where art meets activism, Shepard Fairey’s silkscreen print stands as a testament to the power of creative expression as a tool for social change. Released in 2019, this limited edition piece, signed and numbered with a run of 450, encapsulates Fairey’s longstanding commitment to community engagement through art. The 18x24 artwork, hand-pulled on Cream Speckletone fine art paper, is not only a visual treat but a beacon of inspiration, embodying the themes of creativity, equity, and justice. At the heart of this print is a portrait of Anjel Newmann, a figure who represents the enduring impact of AS220, a non-profit community arts organization in Providence, Rhode Island. Newmann's involvement with AS220 began at the tender age of 13, and her journey to becoming the Director of Programs and Youth Director showcases the nurturing power of such institutions in cultivating artistic talent and leadership among the youth. Fairey, having collaborated with AS220 since the 1990s, celebrates not only the individual journey of Newmann but also the broader ethos of the organization. AS220’s pivotal role in fostering an inclusive arts community and providing a platform for marginalized voices is central to Fairey's narrative. The artwork itself is a visual confluence of Fairey's signature style with poignant messaging. Words like "Creativity," "Equity," and "Justice" are prominently featured, aligning with the larger message that Fairey perpetuates through his work—art as a mechanism for societal upliftment and personal liberation. His use of bold, contrasting colors and geometric patterns draws the eye, compelling the viewer to contemplate the interconnectedness of the artistic elements with the profound themes presented.

Overloading The Grid David Byrne AP Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY x Bobby Grossman Hand-Pulled Color on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist Proof. AP Artist Proof 2024 Signed by Shepard Fairey- OBEY & Marked AP Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print of Talking Heads Singer David Byrne Photo by Bobby Grossman. "I’ve been a fan of the Talking Heads since I was a kid and heard songs like “Once in A Lifetime” and “Burning Down the House” on the radio, well before I discovered punk rock and understood the Talking Heads’ important role in the nascent punk scene as it developed in NYC at CBGB’s in the mid-70’s. I remember seeing the film Stop Making Sense on HBO as a teen and thinking the Talking Heads singer, David Byrne, was very weird and very fearless to dance around in an absurdly oversized suit. I didn’t yet realize that exploring the awkward nature of existence was precisely Byrne’s strong suit! Later, as I got a little more sophisticated, I realized how creatively adventurous the Talking Heads were both musically and with their visuals." -Shepard Fairey Overloading The Grid David Byrne AP by Shepard Fairey and Bobby Grossman The Overloading The Grid Artist Proof silkscreen print from 2024 brings together two highly influential figures of countercultural visual language: Shepard Fairey and Bobby Grossman. This hand-pulled screen print features the likeness of David Byrne, the iconic frontman of the Talking Heads, based on a classic photograph by Grossman and reimagined through Fairey’s unmistakable graphic aesthetic. Printed on cream Speckletone fine art paper and signed and marked AP by Shepard Fairey, this 18x24 inch edition merges photography, music history, and political design into a single portrait that reflects both artistic legacy and cultural disruption. The Legacy of David Byrne in Visual and Sonic Innovation David Byrne’s influence transcends music and bleeds into the worlds of performance art, fashion, and design. As the lead singer of Talking Heads, Byrne’s cerebral yet experimental style embodied the sensibilities of the downtown New York scene during the punk explosion of the 1970s. With an offbeat stage presence and a flair for embracing discomfort as a thematic device, Byrne made awkwardness a mode of expression and communication. His contributions to music videos, album artwork, and stage productions helped define the visual language of new wave and post-punk, laying the groundwork for a visual narrative style that continues to influence contemporary art and design. Shepard Fairey’s Graphic Interpretation Through Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Shepard Fairey’s reinterpretation of Bobby Grossman’s photograph speaks directly to the ethos of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. With signature grid overlays, limited color palettes, and stark shadows, Fairey constructs a visual tension between formality and rebellion. His use of contrast and stylized design imbues the portrait with a power often reserved for propaganda art, reflecting his career-long interest in political messaging and iconography. The screen print format itself holds deep roots in street art and DIY culture, enhancing the piece’s connection to underground aesthetics. Fairey's technique amplifies Byrne’s gaze, turning the portrait into a symbol of creative defiance and urban sophistication. Bobby Grossman’s Influence on Cultural Memory Photographer Bobby Grossman captured the raw, behind-the-scenes energy of New York’s downtown scene with honesty and intimacy. His photography functioned not just as documentation but as an active component of the era’s aesthetic. This collaboration with Fairey pays tribute to Grossman’s influence as an image maker and archivist of punk, pop, and street art culture. His image of Byrne—now stylized, reframed, and elevated—finds new resonance within the larger context of contemporary art. By pairing Grossman’s lens with Fairey’s visual voice, the print becomes more than a portrait; it is a statement on the enduring impact of artists who shaped the language of resistance and reinvention through Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork.

Modular Silkscreen Print by Add Fuel x Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. 2022 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 500 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print "Diogo Machado aka ADD FUEL’s art functions on several levels literally and metaphorically. His pieces master the aesthetics of traditional Portuguese tile work while adding his own playful character illustrations subversively woven into the designs. These two seemingly disparate styles are so elegantly blended together that discovering the oddity within the harmony is both bizarre and joyful. The actual and faux rips ADD FUEL incorporates into his art are more than just a nod to paper, the common material of modern street art, they’re also a provocative bit of visual dissonance since tiles don’t rip. Despite the incongruity of tiles and rips, ADD FUEL’s visually seductive compositions evoke a sense of time passed and a story behind each layer." -Shepard Fairey- OBEY Modular by Add Fuel x Shepard Fairey – Obey Collaborative Silkscreen in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Modular is a 2022 collaborative silkscreen print created by Portuguese artist Diogo Machado, known as Add Fuel, and American artist Shepard Fairey, the founder of OBEY. Hand-pulled on cream Speckletone fine art paper and released in a signed and numbered limited edition of 500, this 18 x 24 inch artwork exemplifies the synergy between ornamental heritage and contemporary visual resistance. The print layers traditional azulejo tile motifs, signature to Add Fuel’s practice, with Fairey’s distinct iconography and compositional balance. Faux paper rips tear through the layers, revealing dynamic juxtapositions of classic pattern, modern pop abstraction, and a central floral mandala infused with Fairey’s visual politics. The piece vibrates with blue, red, and white tonalities, echoing the dual themes of beauty and disruption at the core of their shared visual vocabulary. Tile Motifs, Illusion, and Layered History Add Fuel’s approach to traditional Portuguese tile work is at once reverent and subversive. By reinterpreting the symmetrical elegance of ceramic motifs with unexpected figures and graphic elements, he modernizes a centuries-old medium while injecting it with conceptual humor and narrative depth. In Modular, the faux rips slice through the precision of the tiles to expose underlying designs, mimicking the distressed layering often found in urban environments. These rips are visual contradictions—tiles do not tear—yet they ground the piece in the material reality of street posters, wheatpastes, and handbills. The effect suggests a story unfolding across time, where aesthetics are built upon each other, scraped away, and reassembled to create a living history. This illusion invites the viewer to peel back their own assumptions about permanence, tradition, and identity. Shepard Fairey’s Integration and Urban Influence Shepard Fairey’s signature influence is woven into the modular structure of the work through the inclusion of bold geometric symbology and red-toned central focal points. Known for his OBEY Giant campaign and the Hope poster for Barack Obama, Fairey brings a sharply honed graphic instinct to this collaboration. His presence in Modular is not dominant but seamlessly integrated, allowing the dialogue between his political design language and Add Fuel’s ornamental fluency to unfold in harmony. The composition carries Fairey’s commitment to layering, repetition, and symbolic forms of power, contributing to the conceptual weight of the piece without overpowering the decorative base. It is a rare fusion of design-minded street art and historic pattern making, emblematic of Fairey’s mission to preserve message within form. Craftsmanship and Concept in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork This silkscreen print was meticulously crafted using multiple layers of ink on Speckletone paper, a choice that echoes the street origins of both artists’ practices while elevating the final result to gallery standards. Modular’s formal tension between classic ornament and pop symbolism makes it a quintessential example of contemporary Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. It reflects an evolving aesthetic where collaboration expands meaning, and where cultural pasts are not preserved in silence but animated through visual intervention. For collectors and viewers, Modular offers a tactile and symbolic experience—a print that holds the precision of tradition and the urgency of the present in perfect contradiction. It stands as a testament to the transformative power of surface, story, and subversion.

Green Power Factory Blue 3-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Cream Speckle Tone Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. 2023 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 350 Artwork Size 18x24 "Green Power is a concept I’ve promoted in several pieces of my art. We need to transition to renewable sources of energy for the health of the planet. The fossil fuel industries have tremendous power economically, but we now know that not only are fossil fuel sources finite but that using them is terrible for climate change and, therefore, the eco-systems that sustain life on our planet. Unfortunately, due to the political power of these industries and public apathy about climate change, the government subsidizes the fossil fuel industries for billions even as they damage the environment. The government works for the citizens, so the choice is ours. Do we support endless power for wealthy fossil fuel corporations? Or policies that promote green power and put the earth first with the planet before profits? Please read Naomi Klein’s THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING to better understand the conflict between economic interests and climate change. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this print will go to Greenpeace to fight climate change. Thanks for caring." -Shepard Fairey Shepard Fairey is an American contemporary street artist, graphic designer, activist, and founder of OBEY Clothing. He is known for his thought-provoking and socially-conscious artwork, often combining powerful imagery with provocative messages. The "Green Power Factory Blue Silkscreen Print" was created by Shepard Fairey and features his signature style and color scheme. It most likely represents themes of environmentalism, industry, and the need for sustainable energy solutions. The use of the OBEY logo in the title suggests that it may also convey an underlying message about recognizing and acting on these themes. As a silkscreen print, this artwork is created using a stencil-based printing technique where ink is forced through a mesh screen onto a surface. This method allows for producing multiple prints with a high level of detail and vivid colors. In the case of Fairey's work, the technique is particularly well-suited to his bold, graphic style.

Icarus Democracy 3-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Cream Speckle Tone Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. 2022 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 500 Artwork Size 24x36 "Liberty and equality are principles most people value, but the challenge is to find the proper equilibrium between the two. Democracy is the mechanism our nation has used to balance the freedom and desires of the individual with policies that are fair and beneficial for the collective of society. Democracy requires dedicated maintenance. With the culture of the previous administration and many politicians undermining democracy itself, the folly of over-confidence about the guaranteed endurance of democracy will lead to potential disaster. The threat of fascism is very real. If you value democracy use your voice and your vote. I’d recommend reading Timothy Snyders “On Tyranny” to anyone who does not see the threats to democracy (and the principles it protects) as concerning. This print, “Icarus Democracy,” will also be available in person at Dallas Contemporary." -Shepard Fairey The Icarus Democracy Silkscreen Print is a piece of art created by Shepard Fairey, an American contemporary street artist, graphic designer, and activist. In the Icarus Democracy Silkscreen Print, Fairey uses the myth of Icarus to convey a message about democracy. In Greek mythology, Icarus is a figure who, along with his father Daedalus, escapes imprisonment using wings fashioned from feathers and wax. Despite being warned by his father, Icarus flies too close to the sun, causing the wax in his wings to melt and sending him plummeting into the sea. The story of Icarus is often interpreted as a cautionary tale about hubris and the perils of overconfidence or overreaching. Fairey's print likely uses the Icarus story to comment on the state of democracy, suggesting that democracies can also fall victim to hubris and overconfidence, resulting in negative consequences. Or maybe it's just fearmongering? The piece serves as a reminder of the importance of vigilance in preserving and protecting democratic values and institutions both ironically and literally. The artwork, like many of Fairey's pieces, is created using the silkscreen printing technique. This process involves using a screen to apply ink onto a surface, creating bold, vibrant images. The Icarus Democracy Silkscreen Print showcases Fairey's signature style, characterized by strong lines, bold colors, and iconic imagery, featuring portraiture & symbols that can be easily recognized and interpreted by a wide audience.

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" is a captivating silkscreen print, hand-pulled by the renowned artist Shepard Fairey, commonly known as OBEY. Crafted in 2012 and marked as an Artist Proof (AP), this piece stands out as a limited edition artwork, underscoring the artist's reputation for producing iconic street and pop art. Measuring 18x24 inches, this print is meticulously executed on Speckletone Fine Art Paper, enhancing its visual appeal and ensuring its longevity. Shepard Fairey's inspiration for this artwork emanates from Neil Young's rendition of Woody Guthrie's song, "This Land Is Your Land." At its core, the artwork delves deep into the subjects of immigration policy reform, societal attitudes towards immigrants, and the inherent promise of America. Fairey, a known advocate for immigration policy reform, captures a thought-provoking message, highlighting a lost verse from Guthrie's song. This particular verse poignantly juxtaposes a "No Trespassing" sign with its blank reverse, suggesting that the land is truly meant for everyone, irrespective of societal divisions. The imagery — a man, mountains, barbed wire, and the stark phrase "No Trespassing This Land Is My Land" — is a potent blend of aesthetics and ideology. Woody Guthrie, who wrote the original song, was revered for addressing societal issues such as class inequality and the abuse of power. While some labeled Guthrie as "socialist," Fairey's interpretation celebrates him as a compassionate figure who championed the rights of the marginalized. In embracing this theme, Shepard Fairey's artwork becomes not just a visual delight but a profound commentary on contemporary issues, making it an invaluable piece in the realms of pop, street, and graffiti art.

District Line. "Bob Mould was the guitar player and co-songwriter of Husker Du, one of the most progressive hardcore/indy bands of the '80s. Originally one of the most successful bands on SST records, they were among the first American indie bands to sign to a major label. They are credited with paving the way for bands like Sonic Youth, The Pixies, and Nirvana. I borrowed Husker Du's Zen Arcade album from a friend in my 10th-grade year and quickly collected the rest of their catalog. I especially recommend their album Flip Your Wig. After Husker Du broke up, Bob formed Sugar and now performs solo. His new album District Line is awesome." -Shepard Fairey- OBEY Shepard Fairey's Tribute to Bob Mould: Merging Music and Street Art The Bob Mould AP Signed Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey, a figure synonymous with OBEY and a towering presence in street pop art, is a limited edition artwork that pays homage to Bob Mould's profound influence on the music scene.

Fairey, who has a storied history of integrating his art with social commentary and the music industry, uses this print to honor a musician who has been pivotal in shaping the landscape of modern American indie music. Bob Mould and the Evolution of American Indie Music in Visual Art Bob Mould's journey through the evolution of American indie music is intricately woven into the fabric of this silkscreen print. Shepard Fairey's artistic rendering goes beyond mere portraiture; it is a symbolic representation of the era that saw bands like Sonic Youth, The Pixies, and Nirvana reshape the musical landscape, with Mould and Hüsker Dü leading the charge. As a fan who found inspiration in his youth's raw and passionate soundtracks, Fairey's connection to Mold's music informs the artwork's intimate and reverent portrayal. The print is a visual testament to Mould's ongoing relevance, with Fairey highlighting the musician's solo works like "District Line." The piece symbolizes the confluence between street pop art and the visceral energy of the music that often serves as its soundtrack. Fairey's ability to infuse his work with the spirit of the music he admires adds depth to the print, elevating it from a mere collectible to a significant narrative artifact within the canon of street pop art and graffiti artwork.

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

Downward Trajectory Hand-Pulled 4-Color Silkscreen Print on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper by Artist Shepard Fairey Limited Edition Pop Art Artwork. 2019 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 500 Artwork Size 24x24 “Downward Trajectory is one of the many new works featured in my 30th-anniversary show in Los Angeles, “Facing the Giant: Three Decades of Dissent and New Works,” -Shepard Fairey Shepard Fairey's work is highly political and social, not only because he is incorporating politicians and slogans in it but more importantly because the artist is primarily interested in approaching as many people as possible, exhibiting his work in the covers of the books, which we read, in the music albums, to which we listen, and on the walls of the streets, where we walk. “If I put art in a daring spot, it’s more moving to the viewer and demonstrates my conviction.”, he says. After all, Fairey, in many cases, directly expresses his views on politics and society, whenever he is given the chance. For example, in the aftermath of the “Hope” poster, he commented the following: “Obama has had a really tough time, but there have been a lot of things that he's compromised on that I never would have expected. I mean, drones and domestic spying are the last things I would have thought [he'd support]”. The political aspect of his work can, also, be seen under the spectrum of Fairey’s activism and humanitarian activity. Many of his works have been created as part of activism campaigns or were sold to support causes relevant to the Arts, animal rights, poverty, medical research, the environment, etc. The artist, however, doesn’t identify himself as an activist: “People ask me if I’m an activist, and my answer is no. I’m an artist with a point of view, but I want to do my part to supplement activist causes I believe in. I feel fortunate to connect with people who find my imagery useful and help spread it.”

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.

Revolution Girl Silkscreen Print by WK Interact x Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled 1-Color on Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. 2007 Signed by WK Interact & Shepard Fairey- OBEY Limited Edition of 250 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print. No Obey/WK Revolution Girl Prints Were Numbered in This Edition, and Half of WK Did not Sign; Both Artists Signed This Artwork. Small Crease to the Lower Right Facing Corner. "Revolution Girl" is a compelling collaboration between Shepard Fairey, the founder of OBEY, and WK Interact, an artist known for his dynamic street art. This one-color silkscreen print, produced in 2007, exemplifies a confluence of two distinctive styles that have shaped the visual vocabulary of street art and pop culture. Measuring 18x24 inches and printed on Speckletone fine art paper, the piece is part of a limited edition series with only 250. Significantly, this print is dual-signed by both artists, a rarity given that not all prints from this series were signed by WK Interact, and none were numbered, adding a layer of exclusivity to this artwork. The image is a stark, high-contrast depiction that conveys a sense of urgency and defiance, characteristic of Fairey's work, blended with the kinetic energy of WK Interact's approach to street art. The piece features a figure that is an assertive and revolutionary instance, capturing the ethos of protest and empowerment. This artwork speaks to the heart of street art’s purpose—to challenge norms and inspire change through visual disruption. The presence of a small crease on the lower right-facing corner of the print is a testament to its journey and authenticity, a nod to the often impermanent and rugged life of street art. By merging their distinct artistic signatures, Fairey and WK Interact create a narrative that is both a political and aesthetic statement, resonating with the core of pop art’s intent to blur the boundaries between 'high' art and 'low' culture. "Revolution Girl" stands not just as a work of art but as a cultural artifact that encapsulates the spirit of its era, where art became a loudspeaker for social and political discourse. This print is a testament to the influence of street art in the contemporary art scene, marking its evolution from the fringes to a recognized and vital form of artistic expression that engages public consciousness.

The artwork evokes a sense of empowerment and optimism, encouraging the viewer to consider their role in shaping the future. As with many of Fairey's works, the piece incorporates his signature use of color, particularly red, to create a strong visual impact. Although Shepard Fairey is often associated with his iconic "Hope" poster featuring Barack Obama during the 2008 presidential campaign, "We Own the Future" does not have any direct connection to Obama. Instead, this artwork is part of Fairey's broader body of work, which encompasses a range of themes and messages that often revolve around social issues, activism, and the power of the individual.

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.

Bad Brains Punk Showcase Rasta AP Artist Proof 5-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. AP Artist Proof 2016 Signed & Marked AP Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x24 Shepard Fairey's "Bad Brains Punk Showcase Rasta AP" is a culturally potent piece within the street pop and graffiti art landscape. As an artist proof of the limited edition series, this 5-color hand-pulled silkscreen print on cream speckle tone paper measures 18x24 inches and was released in 2016. Signed and marked as an artist-proof (AP), it is a collector's piece that delves into the pulsating heart of punk's ethos and reggae's rasta vibrations, manifested through the lens of Fairey's distinct style. This artwork resonates with the energy of Bad Brains, a band that epitomized the hardcore punk scene with its unique blend of punk and reggae, a hybrid that paralleled Fairey's melding of art forms. The print captures the band's spirit with the commanding phrase "Positive Mental Attitude!" a mantra that Bad Brains championed throughout their career. Fairey's work is a visual echo of this ethos, presenting the band members with a backdrop of rasta colors, which not only allude to their music's roots but also serve as a nod to a broader cultural movement. Fairey, known for his influence on street pop art through works like the iconic "OBEY" campaign and the Obama "HOPE" poster, continues his exploration of music's intersection with visual art in this print. The piece is saturated with the motifs of Fairey's "OBEY Propaganda" — the star, the bold lettering, and the stylized imagery. These elements merge, not promote a band, and celebrate an entire cultural movement, reflecting the potency of street pop art in capturing and promoting subcultural movements. The "Bad Brains Punk Showcase Rasta AP" print symbolizes Fairey's engagement with the punk scene and his ability to encapsulate its raw, unfiltered voice within his work. It's a testament to the enduring dialogue between music and visual art, which Fairey has continually fostered through his prints, murals, and street art. This piece doesn't just hang on a wall; it screams with the voice of a movement, echoing from the underground clubs to the sun-soaked streets where street art and graffiti have long found their home.

The artwork, pulled by hand on Cream Speckletone fine art paper, stands at an impressive 18x24 inches, making its presence as bold and thought-provoking as the message it carries. This limited edition print, with only 450 copies in existence, brings together the aesthetics of street art and the cultural influence of pop art. The artist's decision to use the hand-pulling technique, a time-honored method in screen printing, adds a layer of authenticity and craftsmanship to the work, honoring traditional practices in a modern context. The image of Winter BreeAnne is a vivid iconography, symbolizing the tireless efforts of youth activists who are not just speaking out but are leading the charge toward real change. As an element of pop and street art, this piece carries the undercurrents of rebellion and transformation. The term "Future Voter" emblazoned across BreeAnne's shirt is not merely a designation but a declaration of the coming influence of a generation ready to assert its power through civic engagement. The call to “Power to the Polls” amplifies this, pushing the narrative that every individual has a role in shaping the future. This sentiment is at the heart of pop art’s core ethos – a reflection of contemporary issues and a mirror to society’s values, hopes, and dreams. The artist behind this print is celebrated for their ability to capture the zeitgeist in their work, combining elements of propaganda, portraiture, and political messaging to create art that transcends the canvas and becomes a part of the public discourse. The use of vibrant colors, bold lines, and striking poses echoes the energy of street art murals, which often serve as beacons of community expression and are a testament to the power of public art to inspire and mobilize. The "We the Future" print is more than a decorative item; it's a cultural artifact that captures the essence of a movement, solidifying the voice of youth and the importance of participation in the democratic process. It’s an inspiration to the onlooker, serving as a reminder of the influence of the younger generation and the continuous, pulsating drumbeat of progress they bring to the political landscape.

Just A Minor Threat Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. 2023 Signed by Glen E Friedman x Shepard Fairey- OBEY & Numbered Limited Edition of 550 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print Depicting Punk Rock Music Band Minor Threat & Ian MacKaye Stylized Raging Concert Photo by Glen E Friedman "I first heard Minor Threat in 1985 when I had been skateboarding and listening to punk and hardcore for a year. I was quickly becoming more confident, outspoken, and energized by D.I.Y. culture, and I was voraciously hungry for things that fuelled my emotional and intellectual evolution. Minor Threat was rocket fuel for my journey. Not only is their music a ferocious explosion of energy, but their playing is tight, and Ian MacKaye’s lyrics are intelligent and provocative. On top of that, Minor Threat created their own label, Dischord Records, to put out their music as well as records by other D.C. bands. Minor Threat and Dischord are profound influences on me, so I was very excited to collaborate with Glen on a Minor Threat print to celebrate the release of his new book “Just a Minor Threat.” Glen has the most intimate and powerful photos of Minor Threat, so it was possible to craft an illustration with strong images of all the band members. I’m also incredibly grateful to have the blessing of the members of Minor Threat." -Shepard Fairey- OBEY "Minor Threat is obviously one of the great foundations of hardcore punk rock. Inspiration for legions around the world, including Shepard and myself. As we’ve done with my last several books, Shepard and I got together and collaborated to make a print celebrating the release of the new publication. Shepard is one of my designing confidants and often gives me advice during my process of bookmaking so it makes sense that once the project comes to fruition, we enthusiastically make these prints of artists that inspire both of us. This print is based on separate images of each individual in the band as well as the always omnipresent audience that were a major part of incredible Minor Threat gigs. The book came out great and is different from previous books; it has its own voice, not only through the trove of never-before-seen photographs but also through the incredible essays throughout. Be inspired." -Glen E Friedman The intersection of punk rock and visual art finds a pulsating tribute in Shepard Fairey's silkscreen print titled "Just A Minor Threat." This limited edition piece, numbered to only 550 and signed by both Fairey and celebrated photographer Glen E. Friedman, crystallizes the essence of the iconic hardcore punk band Minor Threat. Created on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper and measuring 18x24 inches, the artwork commemorates not only the band's fierce energy but also the release of Friedman's new book. Minor Threat, fronted by Ian MacKaye, left an indelible mark on the punk scene with their explosive music and D.I.Y. ethos. This band didn't just play music; they ignited a cultural movement by establishing Dischord Records, encouraging self-expression and independence within the arts community. Fairey, himself a product of the skateboarding and punk cultures of the 1980s, attributes his confidence and outspoken nature to the catalytic influence of bands like Minor Threat. His collaboration with Friedman is not just a celebration of their shared inspirations but a manifestation of the band's impact on their creative and intellectual trajectories. The artwork vividly captures the raw intensity of a Minor Threat performance, with each member and the palpable energy of the audience rendered in a style that bridges the gap between photography and stylized illustration. This visual synergy complements the narrative of Friedman's book, which not only offers an array of unseen photographs but is peppered with essays that give voice to the era and the band's pivotal role in it. Fairey's print stands as a testament to the band's legacy and as a beacon for those fueled by the spirit of rebellion and authenticity that Minor Threat so potently symbolized.

Alternative Facts Hand-Pulled 4-Color Silkscreen Print on Speckletone Fine Art Paper by Artist Shepard Fairey Limited Edition Pop Art Artwork. 2022 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of XXX Artwork Size 24x24 " We are at a critical moment for the preservation of democracy and non-partisan access to voting for all citizens of voting age. Between the Supreme Court, partisan gerrymandering shaping state legislatures, and the filibuster as a tool of obstruction in Congress, we are already facing tyranny by the minority. The forces dominating our politics do not reflect the values of most Americans. My print, Alternative Facts, addresses the mass confusion about truth that allows the parties who spread the big lie about the 2020 election (and many other lies) fomented the January 6th insurrection and are engaged in voter suppression and other anti-democracy schemes, to flourish unchecked. A portion of proceeds from Alternative Facts will benefit the ACLU in its legal fights against voter suppression and other attacks on the constitution." -Shepard Fairey Shepard Fairey's work is highly political and social, not only because he is incorporating politicians and slogans in it but more importantly because the artist is primarily interested in approaching as many people as possible, exhibiting his work in the covers of the books, which we read, in the music albums, to which we listen, and on the walls of the streets, where we walk. “If I put art in a daring spot, it’s more moving to the viewer and demonstrates my conviction.”, he says.

When I was a 14-year-old skateboarder, a friend played me “Never Mind the Bollocks, Here’s the Sex Pistols,” and that moment marked a turning point for me. The Sex Pistols provided the adrenaline-inducing soundtrack for my rebellion. If the Sex Pistols provided the soundtrack, the artist behind their imagery, Jamie Reid, provided the visuals for the revolution. Jamie Reid did the iconic art for the Sex Pistols like the “God Save the Queen” sleeve, the “Pretty Vacant” sleeve, and the cover for the album “Never Mind the Bollocks, Here’s the Sex Pistols.” Jamie deserves the majority of credit for the daring aesthetics of Punk Rock. If you’ve ever seen a photocopied, ransom note style, cut & paste punk graphic, then you’ve seen Jamie Reid’s influence. Jamie has been one of my biggest creative inspirations both visually and philosophically, because his work is bold, provocative, irreverent, and political. Jamie Reid also turned me on to Situationism, a movement dedicated to disrupting the conformist trance through pranks and spectacles. I’m honored that I have been able to work with Jamie on some collaborative images and to present a special collection through Obey Clothing in his honor, as well as two limited edition screen-prints. Jamie and I have mutual interest in shaking things up and addressing the problems of corruption, environmental destruction, and wealth inequality, so it is very energizing and meaningful to do a project with him.

The collaboration between Shepard Fairey and Jamie Reid celebrates the influential punk rock band, the Sex Pistols, and their lasting impact on culture. As a skateboarder at the age of 14, Fairey's life was forever changed when he heard the album "Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols." The band's music became the adrenaline-inducing soundtrack for his rebellion, while Jamie Reid's iconic artwork provided the visuals for the revolution. Jamie Reid's artistic contributions to the Sex Pistols cannot be overstated, as he designed iconic artworks such as the "God Save the Queen" sleeve, the "Pretty Vacant" sleeve, and the album cover for "Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols." His daring and provocative aesthetics played a crucial role in shaping the punk rock movement. The influence of Reid's cut-and-paste punk graphics, resembling photocopied ransom notes, can be observed in numerous punk art pieces. The collaboration between Shepard Fairey and Jamie Reid goes beyond admiration for the punk rock era; they both share a mutual interest in addressing societal issues. The duo seeks to disrupt the conformist trance through their art and address problems like corruption, environmental destruction, and wealth inequality. For Fairey, working with Reid has been an honor and a source of creative inspiration, both visually and philosophically. The Suburban Pressure print, a signed and numbered limited edition of 375, captures the essence of punk rock and Jamie Reid's bold and political artistic style. Measuring 18x24, this artwork showcases the rebellious spirit that defined the punk rock era. The collaboration also extends to a special collection presented through Obey Clothing, further honoring Jamie Reid's impact on the art world.

Revolution in our Time Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled 5-Color on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. 2020 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 500 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print "Oct 1 is the 70th anniversary of Communist Party rule in China and the Chinese government is planning an extravaganza of choreographed contentment in the mainland while the people of Hong Kong will hit the streets in an effort to secure their rights. I’ve long believed that protests in the streets are an essential tool for meaningful change because the passion, courage, and visceral force of the participants in a mass protest send a powerful message that they are fully committed to their cause! Ed Nachtrieb photographed many incredible moments of the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests. I’m honored to collaborate with Ed on a set of two images based on his documentation 30 years ago, especially because pro-democracy and human-rights protesters are in the streets of Hong Kong right now! This image “Long Live The People” will be released as a print soon… more details to come. Check out Ed Nachtrieb’s thoughts on the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests." -Shepard Fairey- OBEY "After the People’s Liberation Army was sent in to suppress what is now called the “pro-democracy movement” on June 4, 1989, there was a liberalization of economic rules and policies. China then experienced a remarkable economic transformation. The idea: if people could get rich, they wouldn’t care so much about their freedoms. I think that’s a miscalculation. In Hong Kong today, ideas championed in 1989 have reappeared in a “Revolution of Our Time” in spite of the campaign to erase such “counter-revolutionary” thoughts from history. My images used in these prints are from energetic and optimistic moments of the pro-democracy movement. Victory was in the air. Progress seemed inevitable to those with arms outstretched and smiles beaming from their faces. Shepard’s work reflects their hopes and aspirations. The same ones that fortified those protesters in 1989 are now fuel for the passionate idealists on the streets today." -Edward Nachtrieb Shepard Fairey's "Revolution in Our Time" silkscreen print is a compelling narrative connecting past and present struggles for democracy and human rights. This piece, released in 2020, commemorates the 70th anniversary of Communist Party rule in China, juxtaposing the state's celebrations with the unyielding spirit of protest in Hong Kong. Fairey's collaboration with photographer Ed Nachtrieb is particularly significant, as it draws on images captured during the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests, thereby linking historical acts of resistance to contemporary movements. The artwork is a hand-pulled, 5-color print on cream speckletone fine art paper. With its size of 18x24 inches, the piece commands attention, demanding consideration not just as a visual expression but as a statement of solidarity. The edition is limited to 550 signed and numbered prints, making each a tangible artifact of political artistry. Fairey's design is charged with symbols of peace and resilience, as evidenced by the dove and the raised hand, iconic gestures of defiance and hope. Fairey is known for his stance that street protests are a crucial mechanism for social change, and this belief is visually encoded in the print. His art is not passive; it is an active participant in the dialogue around civil liberties and the collective voice of the people. "Revolution in Our Time" does more than commemorate an event; it propels the message of protest into the future, encouraging a reflection on the nature of authority and the power of the people's will. This limited edition print captures the essence of Shepard Fairey's approach to art as a form of rebellion and communication. It speaks to a universal yearning for freedom and justice, transcending borders and historical moments to unite viewers in a common cause. The work stands as a beacon to civic engagement's enduring relevance and visual art's impact in mobilizing and inspiring change within societies.

Smokey Robinson- Red 3-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Cream Speckle Tone Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. Signed by Fairey & legendary music artist Smokey Robinson. Screen Print 18 x 24 inches Edition of 450 2010 "I was amazed when Smokey contacted me to do a portrait to commemorate his 50 years in the music business, and a little nostalgic at the thought of his impact on me as a kid. Smokey came into the studio to hang out and sign them. He's a really nice, upbeat guy who has a real lust for life, maybe that's why he looks like he hasn't aged in 30 years. Believe it or not, Smokey signed every single print with his very beautiful and painstaking signature. It's worth picking up a print for that alone. Mention the name Smokey Robinson and the first thing that automatically comes to mind is Motown. It's understandable given that it was Robinson's hits, first as the leader of the Miracles, and then later as a solo artist that propelled the famed label during the 60s." -Shepard Fairey

No Bees No Honey Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Silkscreen Print on Cream Speckle Tone Paper by Shepard Fairey Rare Street Art OBEY Pop Artwork Artist. 2022 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 325 Artwork Size 18x24 Gold Metallic Ink "The Clash are my all-time favorite band and their frontman, Joe Strummer, is a hero of mine for his music, lyrics, wit, compassion for the underdog, and stance against injustice. To celebrate the release of JOE STRUMMER 002 and in honor of Joe’s 70th birthday, a limited edition print inspired by the Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros song, JOHNNY APPLESEED. Joe’s lyric “If you’re after getting the honey, then you don’t go killing all the bees” applies to lots of things, like mistreating factory workers, but for me the idea that bees are pollinators who are crucial to sustaining Earth’s fragile eco-systems is a powerful idea. I hope to honor Joe’s music and extend his ideas with my No Bees No Honey print. A portion of proceeds will go to the Joe Strummer Foundation." -Shepard Fairey The intersection of street art, pop art, and graffiti has often found its voice through artists who transcend the confines of traditional media to bring forth powerful messages. One such eminent figure in this realm is Shepard Fairey, known widely for his iconic designs and thought-provoking artistry. His piece, "No Bees No Honey," is a color hand-pulled limited edition silkscreen print that stands as a testament to Fairey's artistic prowess and his ability to interweave poignant messages with his art. Created on cream speckle tone paper, the print embodies a vibrant play of colors and is accentuated by gold metallic ink that gives it a unique touch. The allure of this piece, however, isn't just its visual appeal but also its rarity. With only 325 signed and numbered pieces available, it stands as a collector's item and a beacon of Fairey's dedication to his craft. Sized at 18x24, the artwork captures attention with its intricate details and the symbolic imagery it presents. What elevates this piece from merely being a work of art to a profound statement is the backstory that inspired it. The artwork draws its essence from the legacy of Joe Strummer, frontman of "The Clash" and a stalwart figure revered by Fairey. Strummer's dedication to justice, his compassion for the marginalized, and his undying spirit resonate deeply with Fairey, making him a consistent source of inspiration. The inception of "No Bees No Honey" can be traced back to a song by Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros titled "JOHNNY APPLESEED." A line from this song, "If you’re after getting the honey, then you don’t go killing all the bees," serves as the driving philosophy behind Fairey's artwork. At a glance, this lyric speaks volumes about sustainability and the delicate balance of nature. By delving deeper, one recognizes its applicability to a myriad of societal issues, ranging from the exploitation of factory workers to the broader challenges faced by our ecosystem. The role of bees as indispensable pollinators, ensuring the continuation of life on Earth, is cleverly juxtaposed with Strummer's lyrics, creating an artwork that's as profound in its message as it is stunning in its design. Fairey's commitment to social causes and his admiration for Strummer converge in "No Bees No Honey," but they also manifest in tangible contributions. A part of the proceeds from this artwork is dedicated to the Joe Strummer Foundation, thereby furthering the cause and ensuring that art acts as a vehicle for positive change. In the world of contemporary art, pieces like "No Bees No Honey" remind us of the transformative power of creativity. Shepard Fairey's art is not just an aesthetic pleasure; it's a call to introspection, an invitation to ponder deeper societal issues, and a celebration of the indomitable spirit of figures like Joe Strummer.

"Black Sabbath has been one of my favorite bands for 25 years. I was fortunate to meet Jack Osbourne through my friend Big Dave in 2000. My relationship with Jack and Big Dave has led to several great Ozzy and Sabbath projects. One of my biggest “I’m not worthy!” moments occurred when Dave took me backstage to meet the Sabbath guys in 2004 at Ozzfest, and bassist and lyricist Geezer Butler was wearing an Obey shirt! Sabbath is still a phenomenal live band, and I’m incredibly honored to do my second(the first was in 2005) Sabbath/Obey tour poster. Sabbath released a great new record called “13” recently(produced by Rick Rubin) and are touring in support of the album." -Shepard Fairey- OBEY.

The artwork, hand-pulled on cream speckletone fine art paper, features iconic Black Sabbath symbols, such as the cross and the winged disc, alongside Fairey's signature style, which often includes elements like the star and the stylized imagery of the eye. The fusion of street pop art with music often manifests in gig posters, a medium that Shepard Fairey, known widely for his OBEY brand, has mastered with a distinctive style that resonates deeply within the pop culture landscape. His work for the iconic metal rock n' roll music band Black Sabbath, particularly the silver and black crescent silkscreen print, encapsulates the essence of the artist's and the band's legacies. The significance of Fairey's Black Sabbath artwork lies in its ability to bridge music's auditory experience with art's visual stimulus. The print does not merely represent the band; it evokes the rebellious spirit of Black Sabbath's music, the dark and mystical themes they explore, and the cultural movement they spearheaded within the heavy metal genre. Fairey's artistic trademarks, such as the word 'obey,' infuses the piece with a sense of authority and provocation that complements the band's ethos. Collectibility and Influence in the Art World Fairey's anecdote about meeting the band and finding Geezer Butler wearing an OBEY shirt is a testament to the reciprocal influence between artist and musician. It underlines how street pop art and music often come full circle, with artists influencing musicians and vice versa. The print is a celebration of the band's return with the album "13" and a nod to the historical relationship between the artist and Black Sabbath. It is this narrative that imbues the artwork with a personal touch, making it a profound statement within the realms of both pop culture and street art. As a collectible, the Black Sabbath silkscreen print by Shepard Fairey stands at the intersection of music memorabilia and fine art.

Metallica Helping Hands Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled Color on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. 2024 Signed by Shepard Fairey- OBEY & Numbered Limited Edition of 500 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print Featuring a Skull Flower For the Mega Rock bands Metallica, Sammy Hagar & Sistastrings "Metallica recently asked me to create the poster for their Helping Hands concert. Of course, I said yes because Metallica is one of my favorite bands and the tightest live band I have ever seen! Plus, the concert benefits some great causes. This print celebrates triumph over adversity while acknowledging that life is fragile and it’s in our hands to build the world we want for ourselves and our brothers and sisters." -Shepard Fairey- OBEY Metallica Helping Hands Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey - OBEY Shepard Fairey’s Metallica Helping Hands silkscreen print fuses raw rock iconography with the sharply tuned visual philosophy of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. Created for Metallica’s December 13th, 2024 concert at the YouTube Theater in Los Angeles, the artwork stands as both a promotional and cultural artifact—one that reinforces Fairey’s unique position at the nexus of music, politics, and visual rebellion. This limited edition, hand-pulled silkscreen print on 18x24 inch cream Speckletone paper is not only signed and numbered by Fairey himself, but also issued in a strict run of 500 copies, elevating its stature as both a collectible and a testament to contemporary poster art. Design Symbolism and Visual Impact The composition centers around a stark white hand clutching a stylized flower whose petals subtly morph into a skull motif, with the flower’s stem winding in a way that evokes both delicacy and defiance. This emblem, rendered in bold reds, blacks, and whites, signals duality—life and death, fragility and force, compassion and rebellion. The deliberate contrast between the flower’s soft curves and the jagged lines of the skull mirrors the complex ethos of Metallica’s music, where heavy riffs often meet introspective lyrics. Fairey’s hallmark typography and symmetrical layout deliver the immediacy and intensity familiar in his most iconic works, extending the print’s resonance far beyond mere merchandise. Metallica and the Culture of Amplified Resistance Metallica’s presence in pop culture transcends heavy metal. Their brand of amplified resistance, sharpened through decades of visual, sonic, and lyrical output, fits naturally into the framework of Street Pop Art. Fairey’s poster positions the band not just as musicians, but as cultural avatars whose artistic collaborations hold weight in the visual conversation around social change. By visually contextualizing the concert’s philanthropic mission—benefiting Metallica’s All Within My Hands Foundation—Fairey presents rock music not just as expression but as action, and art as an extension of that impact. Shepard Fairey’s Role in Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork Fairey’s artistic lineage is defined by disruption, clarity of message, and the subversive use of commercial aesthetics to question power structures. In this print, he leverages those core traits while paying homage to a band whose legacy aligns with his own. The print maintains the stylistic elements synonymous with Fairey’s OBEY imprint—sharp silhouettes, geometric precision, and symbolic weight—while also introducing a warmth and sentimentality not always seen in his politically charged works. The image of the skull flower, set against the backdrop of a performance by Metallica, Sammy Hagar, and Sistastrings, becomes a modern-day reliquary—a symbol of unity through sound, protest, and design. This piece not only enshrines a single event but expands its reach into the broader discourse of art activism, making it a defining example of what happens when two cultural juggernauts—Shepard Fairey and Metallica—merge on canvas within the framework of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork.

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

Floral Takeover 2017 Red Cream 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 Cream Silkscreen Print" is a significant entry in the oeuvre of Shepard Fairey, an artist whose work is synonymous with the intersection of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork. This piece is part of a limited edition of 200, each signed and numbered, denoting its value as a collectible. With dimensions of 18x24 inches, the silkscreen print is substantial enough to make a statement on any wall it adorns. Fairey, with his characteristic OBEY brand, has long been a provocateur, blending commercial art techniques with street art's subversive edge, and this work is a clear example of that fusion. Fairey's approach to creating new patterns for street installations and fine art pieces harks back to his early days when he would use discontinued wallpaper as a backdrop for his work. The transition to designing and printing his patterns demonstrates a progression in his artistic control and the evolution of his signature style. The 'Floral Takeover series showcases the artist's ability to adapt elements traditionally associated with interior design and repurpose them within the context of street art and pop culture. By doing so, Fairey blurs the lines between art as a purely aesthetic commodity and its function as a commentary on societal norms. In this print, Fairey plays with a cream speckle tone fine art paper that gives the work a textured, organic feel, contrasting with the precise and deliberate two-color silkscreen technique. The choice of cream as the base color amplifies the boldness of the red floral pattern, allowing the design to leap off the paper with a vivacity that captures the viewer's eye. The juxtaposition of color and form symbolizes Fairey's work, where contrast often serves as a visual metaphor for broader cultural and political contrasts. Moreover, the 'Floral Takeover' print series reflects Fairey's humor and his recognition of the interplay between art and the commercial world, as hinted at in his playful suggestion to "buy a couch to match." This statement encapsulates the artist's awareness of the commodification of art in pop culture and his role within that process. Through works like this, Fairey continues challenging perceptions of what street art can be, bridging the gap between graffiti's rebel spirit and gallery pieces' polished finish.

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.

Ian Curtis Heart and Soul Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled 3-Color on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. 2023 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 500 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print "I first discovered Joy Division through my friend Jay Haley in 1985-86. Jay was a little more open-minded than I was, so he was listening to aggressive punk and hardcore, but also, more moody music like The Smiths, The Cure, early Cult, and Joy Division. I initially liked some of Joy Division’s melodies, but I generally found the music a bit cold, sparse, and haunting on the verge of depressing. However, the music grew on me over time and the qualities I just described as liabilities became assets. As I grew out of my punk rock orthodoxy phase I realized no band sounded quite like Joy Division. My love of Joy Division has only grown over the years along with my appreciation for their imagery. Joy Division’s image of elegant austerity is often connected to their artwork by Peter Saville, but a lot of credit should go to Kevin Cumminsfor his noir portraits of the band. I’ve loved Cummin’s photography for years, so I was delighted when he agreed to collaborate on a portrait of Ian Curtis, Joy Division’s singer who took his own life in 1980 at 23. Curtis was a unique singer but also a powerful lyricist, so the lyrics to the song Heart and Soul are woven through the art along with an angular divide through Curtis’s figure symbolizing the tension between heart and soul. Since Kevin actually knew Ian, I appreciated that he would allow me to interpret his iconic photo!" -Shepard Fairey- OBEY Shepard Fairey's "Ian Curtis Heart and Soul" silkscreen print is a powerful tribute to the enigmatic Joy Division frontman and his profound impact on music and visual culture. Released in 2023, this limited edition print encapsulates Fairey's deep personal connection to Curtis and the band's enduring legacy. The artwork, sized at 18x24 inches and limited to a series of 500, is meticulously hand-pulled, showcasing three colors on cream speckletone fine art paper, underscoring the raw and textured essence of the subject matter. Fairey's engagement with Joy Division's work began in the mid-1980s, a time marked by a musical awakening as he transitioned from a strict punk perspective to a broader appreciation of the haunting, sad sounds that defined Joy Division's discography. Fairey candidly discusses how the initial perception of the music as 'cold and haunting' eventually morphed into an understanding of its depth and uniqueness, revealing a narrative of personal and artistic growth. Integral to this print is Fairey's collaboration with Kevin Cummins, a photographer renowned for his poignant portraits of Joy Division, which have significantly shaped the band's visual narrative. The decision to weave the lyrics of "Heart and Soul" into the fabric of the portrait is both a literal and figurative intertwining of Curtis's lyrical genius with his visual representation. This design choice also hints at the complexities of Curtis's personal struggles, echoed in the stark contrast that bisects his figure in the artwork—a poignant reminder of the internal discord between passion and reason, emotion and intellect. Fairey's print is not merely a visual piece but a narrative collage that pays homage to the artistic influence and legacy of Ian Curtis. By embedding the soul-stirring lyrics of "Heart and Soul" within the artwork, Fairey invites viewers to engage with the piece on multiple levels: aesthetically, emotionally, and intellectually. The print transcends mere representation, becoming a conduit for the artist's reverence for Curtis's talents as a singer and lyricist and the enduring impact of Joy Division on music and popular culture, ensuring that the heart and soul of Ian Curtis's artistry continue to resonate through time.

Only The Finest Poison 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 550 Artwork Size 24x24 Silkscreen Print "This “Only the Finest Poison” print is a critique of the many methods the oil industries use to maintain business as usual, including deceptive marketing, bribing politicians, discrediting science, and concealing the truth. The news clipping included in the piece is a portion of an article revealing that ExxonMobile has known, based on their internal scientific research, for over 40 years that burning fossil fuels is warming the planet. Yet, they hid the research and publicly denied the impact of fossil fuels on climate change. It is challenging to break through the formidable layers of deterrence put in place by the powerful corporations who put profits before people and the planet, but breaking through is essential to a healthy future. A portion of proceeds from this print will benefit Greenpeace USA to support their work to fight climate change. Thanks for caring.

Fairey powerfully employs the use of imagery and text to shed light on the industry's egregious actions—distorting facts, undermining science, bribing political figures, and prioritizing profit over the planet's wellbeing.
