Credentials

  • Famous Artist
Shepard Fairey's practice spans unique mixed-media works, hand-painted multiples, and signed screenprints, each defined by distinct methods of production and provenance. His original canvases and wood panels combine stencil, silkscreen, and collage, ensuring each piece is singular. Hand-painted multiples (HPMs) begin with the same silkscreen base but are individually finished, making each one unique. Standard prints are screenprinted on cream Speckletone paper, hand-signed and numbered, often with the OBEY publishing chop. Provenance is strongest for works acquired through the OBEY Giant store or authorized galleries, with documentation and condition supporting each purchase. His 2008 Obama Hope image highlights the importance of medium and edition, as signed limited screenprints hold far greater value than widely distributed unsigned campaign posters.
