About the Item

SHEPARD FAIREY Global Warning - Global Warming (Andy Warhol Edition), 2009 Silkscreen on wove paper 24 × 18 inches Pencil signed and numbered 264/450 on the front Unframed Global Warning - Global Warming - is the rare pink Andy Warhol edition, separate from the regular red edition. Limited Edition hand signed, dated and numbered silkscreen print created exclusively for the opening of Shepard Fairey's "Supply and Demand" Exhibition at the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh. This incredibly popular screenprint sold out very soon after the sale was announced by the museum. Fairey's "Global Warming", featuring a sunbathing woman covering herself with the aptly titled "Sun" newspaper, directly attacks the right-wing who deny the science of climate change, and even features his own Windmill Power poster as an alternative. During the exhibition, this iconic image was also featured on a New York City billboard. Fairey also created this silkscreen in red - but the present edition is known as the "Warhol" edition. Shepard Fairey Biography A major figure of the contemporary street art movement, Shepard Fairey rose to prominence in the early 1990s with his “Andre the Giant Has a Posse” campaign, which distributed posters, stickers, and murals featuring the eponymous wrestler around Providence, Rhode Island. Fairey’s iconic 2008 “Hope” campaign poster for President Barack Obama encapsulates a number of the artist’s recurring concerns, including propaganda, portraiture, and political power. Fairey’s work, which has sold for six figures at auction, can be found in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, and the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, D.C.

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...
