Description from the seller
Damaged (Artist Proof)
Artwork Presentation
Artist: Shepard Fairey (OBEY)
Series: Box Set "50 Shades of Black" (Special 25th Anniversary Edition)
Publication year: 2014
Support: Cream paper silkscreen (Speckletone)
Technique: Hand-pulled screenprint
Dimensions: 12 x 12 inches (≈ 30.5 x 30.5 cm) — Vinyl sleeve format
The offered version is an AP (Artist Proof)
This artwork comes from the iconic series produced to celebrate a quarter-century of graphic dissent. The "50 Shades of Black" style stands out with a minimalist yet powerful palette: black, metallic gold, and cream.
The aesthetics draw on the visual language of Soviet propaganda, vintage advertising, and the punk movement. Unlike large-format posters, this 12x12 format pays homage to the major influence of music and DJ culture in Fairey’s work.
Rarity of the Edition: These screenprints come from a boxed set limited to only 450 copies worldwide.
Signature: Each piece is hand-signed and dated by Shepard Fairey in pencil (usually lower right).
Preservation Quality: Use of high-quality pigment inks and archival paper, ensuring exceptional longevity without yellowing.
Exhibition Versatility: Its square "Cover Art" format allows for a contemporary display, ideal for wall grids or minimalist framing.
