Shepard Fairey
Bob Marley 40th Confrontation Signed & Numbered Letterpress OBEY Shepard Fairey

2021

About the Item

This letterpress set in collaboration with photographer Dennis Morris commemorates the 40th anniversary of Bob Marley’s passing. The series represents the amazing breadth of Marley’s character… the philosopher, the confrontational warrior for justice, and the evangelist for love and connection. Bob Marley’s music and words continue to resonate with a worldwide audience while converting young idealists year over year. I discovered Bob Marley when I bought his Rastaman Vibrations shortly after I started skateboarding in 1984, purely because the only good skateboard ramp where I lived was called “The Rasta Ramp.” I had mostly been listening to punk rock, but I was excited to discover reggae, which even more boldly embodied many of the same elements of social protest as punk but in a way that was much more palatable to my parents. I think my parents bought me Bob Marley and the Wailers records for every Christmas or birthday until I had accumulated their entire catalog. I’m always inspired by how steadfast and positive Bob was. –Shepard Photographer Dennis Morris: “Robert Nesta Marley, the thinker, the mystic, the lover, writer of songs of Freedom; an inspiration to millions. Forty years on, the legend lives on.” –Dennis Morris Edition Details: Year: 2021 Class: Art Print Status: Official Released: 05/18/21 Run: 188/450 Technique: Letterpress Paper: cream cotton Size: 16 X 19.5 Markings: Signed & Numbered by the artist in pencil, Shepard Fairey.

Star Wars Movie Poster Art The Empire Strikes Back Return Jedi Gabz Screen Print
By Grzegorz Domaradzki
Located in Draper, UT
Grzegorz Domaradzki AKA: GABZ Year: 2015 Class: Cinema Status: Official Released: 11/05/15 Run: 3,900 Technique: Screen Print Size: 36 X 24 Markings: Numbered I have always been a huge Star Wars fan and I cannot even describe how profoundly thrilled and honored I was when I was given the opportunity to work on the original Star Wars trilogy,” said Gabz. Although at first I planned on doing something clean, iconic and centered primarily around Luke Skywalker, in the end I decided to try to capture the most of Star Wars plot with very carefully picked characters and essential scenes from all 3 episodes. I would not like to reveal all the details so that the fans could discover all the hidden clues themselves. Thus, I will just say that I started building the composition around the Dark Side represented by Darth Vader and his conflict between the soon-to-become-a-Jedi-Knight, Luke Skywalker. “There are many amazing Star Wars prints...
