offset printing; Hand signed; // Demagogue by Shepard Fairey, an offset print created in 2016, delivers a powerful political statement through stark, graphic imagery. The composition features a close-up of an open mouth mid-shout, with sharp, angular red, black, and white lines radiating outward, enhancing the sense of aggression and intensity. The word DEMAGOGUE is boldly displayed at the top, while FRANZ FERDINAND appears at the bottom, referencing both the band's song and the historical figure whose assassination sparked World War I. Fairey's distinct style, influenced by propaganda and pop art, conveys a critique of authoritarian and inflammatory rhetoric, calling attention to the dangers of persuasive yet divisive leadership. The print is hand-signed, adding a personal touch to this limited edition piece.

What is appropriation?
Appropriation in art involves using pre-existing images or objects with little or no modification. This technique has played a significant role across various art forms, including visual arts, music, performance, and literature. In visual arts, appropriation refers to the practice of adopting, sampling, recycling, or borrowing elements—or even entire forms—of existing visual culture, integrating them into new works to create meaning or critique.
