Target Exceptions Signed and Numbered Screenprint
Located in Draper, UT
Shepard Fairey's "Target Exceptions" print offers a poignant reflection on the challenges faced by individuals aspiring to visit or immigrate to the United States. Through this thought-provoking artwork, Fairey delves into the complexities of the immigration process, shedding light on the various target criteria that determine the eligibility of potential candidates. In a world where the "American Dream" beckons as a symbol of hope and opportunity, Fairey's piece reminds us that many deserving individuals are deemed exceptions to the established qualifications, particularly in the context of prevailing attitudes and policies of the current administration. The artwork presents a striking visual featuring Fairey's iconic style, using a blend of powerful imagery and symbolic elements to convey its message. By drawing attention to the dichotomy between the desired dream and the restrictive reality, "Target Exceptions" calls for empathy and understanding towards those affected by such immigration hurdles. Shepard Fairey's reputation as a contemporary artist and graphic designer precedes him. Born on February 15, 1970, in Charleston, South Carolina, Fairey has gained global recognition for his profound influence on modern art and activism. His commitment to addressing political and social issues through his work has earned him a prominent position within the art world. Fairey's artistic journey began with street art and has evolved into a diverse body of work that seamlessly blends political messaging, pop culture references, and iconic symbolism. As a co-founder of Studio Number One and the art collective BLK/MRKT Inc., Shepard Fairey continues to push the boundaries of artistic expression and its capacity to inspire change. His work has been exhibited worldwide, making a lasting impact on both art enthusiasts and social activists alike. Shepard Fairey's art is rooted in a blend of influences that shape its distinctive character. His early experiences with street art and punk culture have left an indelible mark on his style, infusing it with a rebellious spirit and DIY ethos. Additionally, Fairey draws inspiration from the world of propaganda and political messaging, referencing historical movements like Soviet Constructivism and Chinese Cultural Revolution art...

Welcome Visitor Diptych Signed and Numbered Print Set
Located in Draper, UT
The “Welcome Visitor” diptych is a thought-provoking exploration of the contradictions inherent in America's tourism industry and its immigration policies. Through this striking artwork, Shepard Fairey delves into the uncomfortable collision of economic opportunism and xenophobia. The piece reflects on the historical context of America as a melting pot, symbolized by the Ellis Island narrative and the hope of embracing diversity. However, it also draws attention to the contemporary climate of fear and scapegoating faced by Latino and Muslim communities. The diptych specifically highlights past events like the immigration ban and internment of Japanese individuals, including Japanese-American citizens during World War II, when unfounded fear led to prejudiced policies against them. Shepard Fairey skillfully uses this historical reference to shed light on the irrational and disproportionate fear. By contrasting the past with the present, Fairey aims to inspire contemplation and empathy, urging viewers to consider the humanity and dignity of all people as a paramount factor in shaping immigration and tourism policies. Shepard Fairey is a renowned contemporary artist and graphic designer whose work often explores political and social themes. Born on February 15, 1970, in Charleston, South Carolina, Fairey gained widespread recognition for his iconic "Hope" poster created during Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign. His art has since become synonymous with activism and social commentary. Fairey's unique style combines elements of street art, pop culture, and political messaging, earning him a prominent place in the world of contemporary art. In addition to his prolific career as a visual artist, Shepard Fairey co-founded the design studio Studio Number One and the art collective BLK/MRKT Inc. He has exhibited his work in galleries and museums around the globe, leaving a lasting impact on the art world and beyond. Fairey's art continues to inspire dialogue and challenge societal norms, urging viewers to question and engage with the issues he addresses. Shepard Fairey's art is influenced by various sources, including street art, punk rock aesthetics, propaganda imagery, and political movements. He credits the DIY ethos of punk culture and the rebellious spirit of street art for shaping his artistic vision. Fairey's fascination with propaganda and political art from historical movements, such as Soviet Constructivism and Chinese Cultural Revolution...

Fine Art Prints for Sale — Animal Prints, Abstract Prints, Nude Prints and Other Prints

Decorating with fine art prints — whether they’re figurative prints, abstract prints or another variety — has always been a practical way of bringing a space to life as well as bringing works by an artist you love into your home.

Pursued in the 1960s and ’70s, largely by Pop artists drawn to its associations with mass production, advertising, packaging and seriality, as well as those challenging the primacy of the Abstract Expressionist brushstroke, printmaking was embraced in the 1980s by painters and conceptual artists ranging from David Salle and Elizabeth Murray to Adrian Piper and Sherrie Levine.

Printmaking is the transfer of an image from one surface to another. An artist takes a material like stone, metal, wood or wax, carves, incises, draws or otherwise marks it with an image, inks or paints it and then transfers the image to a piece of paper or other material.

Fine art prints are frequently confused with their more commercial counterparts. After all, our closest connection to the printed image is through mass-produced newspapers, magazines and books, and many people don’t realize that even though prints are editions, they start with an original image created by an artist with the intent of reproducing it in a small batch. Fine art prints are created in strictly limited editions — 20 or 30 or maybe 50 — and are always based on an image created specifically to be made into an edition.

Many people think of revered Dutch artist Rembrandt as a painter but may not know that he was a printmaker as well. His prints have been preserved in time along with the work of other celebrated printmakers such as Pablo Picasso, Salvador Dalí and Andy Warhol. These fine art prints are still highly sought after by collectors.

“It’s another tool in the artist’s toolbox, just like painting or sculpture or anything else that an artist uses in the service of mark making or expressing him- or herself,” says International Fine Print Dealers Association (IFPDA) vice president Betsy Senior, of New York’s Betsy Senior Fine Art, Inc.

Because artist’s editions tend to be more affordable and available than his or her unique works, they’re more accessible and can be a great opportunity to bring a variety of colors, textures and shapes into a space.

For tight corners, select small fine art prints as opposed to the oversized bold piece you’ll hang as a focal point in the dining area. But be careful not to choose something that is too big for your space. And feel free to lean into it if need be — not every work needs picture-hanging hooks. Leaning a larger fine art print against the wall behind a bookcase can add a stylish installation-type dynamic to your living room. (Read more about how to arrange wall art here.)
