Shepard Fairey
Fossil Factory, Obey Giant Shepard Fairey Activism Street Art Print Contemporary

2017

About the Item

Fossil Factory. 18 x 24 inches. Screen print on cream Speckle Tone paper. Signed by Shepard Fairey. Edition of 300/450. The Fossil Factory image is an illustration I made based on a former factory in the 13th district of Paris which is now used for classrooms at a university. The architecture of the factory is fantastic and serves as a reminder of what monolithic and impressive things were built by, and in service of, fossil fuel powered industries. Those industries still have tremendous power economically, but we now know that not only are those fuel sources finite but that using them is terrible for climate change and therefore the eco-systems that sustain life on our planet. I’d like to see more fossil factories turned into schools while we subsidize research into renewable energy solutions rather than the current practice of subsidizing the fossil fuel industries for billions as they damage the environment. 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 350 . org to support their efforts to fight climate change. Thanks for caring. – Shepard Shepard Fairey is a major influencer in the street art movement along side Banksy, Mr. Brainwash, and others. He has gained notoriety as a graphic artist, muralist, and an expert in mixed media. He was born on February 15, 1970 and is now based in Los Angeles, California. Fairey grew up in the skateboarding and punk rock culture, and may also be most well known for his 2008 "Hope" poster of then U.S. presidential candidate Barack Obama. Our gallery takes pride in providing only the highest quality pieces, stored and shipped with acid free tissue paper. Stored flat, with no signs of wear.

Dimensions: 8.0 x 31 inches (20.5 x 79 cm; applies to each) Condition: each new and sealed in original packaging. Takashi Murakami Flowers: Perhaps Murakami's most iconic motif, these candy-colored, smiling flowers came into the artist's work when he was preparing for his entrance exams for the Tokyo National University of Fine Arts, and he embraced the form over nine years teaching prep-school students to draw flowers. One of the most acclaimed artists to emerge from postwar Asia, Takashi Murakami—“the Warhol of Japan”—is known for his contemporary Pop synthesis of fine art and popular culture, particularly his use of a boldly graphic and colorful anime and manga cartoon style. _ Pairs quite nicely with many of our other Andy Warhol, Keith Haring, Damien Hirst & Roy Lichtenstein items on our page. Please feel free to ask for any further suggestions in this regard.
