ORIGINAL OBEY SCREENPRINT (SHEPARD FAIREY) – NUMBERED & SIGNED EDITION
Attention to contemporary art and Street Art collectors! I am putting up for sale this magnificent and iconic screenprint by American artist Shepard Fairey (aka OBEY Giant). A powerful and engaged work, faithful to the artist's humanitarian propagandist style.
DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK
This work features the striking contrast between the innocence of childhood and the harshness of war. It shows a young girl absorbed in contemplating a detonated grenade, transformed into a delicate rose. Above her, bombers cut through the sky.
The signature Obey color palette (cream, deep blue, magenta pink, and gold/yellow accents) gives this piece a vintage yet ultra-modern aesthetic.
