Hand signed and dated (2001) by the artist. // Obey (Ripped) by Shepard Fairey is a raw and provocative lithograph created in 2001. The print features Fairey’s signature bold contrast of black and white, with a distressed, torn appearance that hints at rebellion and the impermanence of public art. The iconic Obey logo in the bottom corner, along with the jagged, fragmented imagery, evokes a sense of urban grit and countercultural resistance. Fairey’s work, often associated with street art and political statements, uses a simplified palette and impactful design to draw attention to themes of power, control, and dissent. This open edition print is hand-signed and dated by Fairey, adding a personal touch to the piece’s commentary on authority and subversion.

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.
