“SLICK RICK RED Screen Print 18 x 24 inches Edition of 300” — Shepard Fairey
About This Print
Slick Rick (Red) is a 2004 Shepard Fairey screen print published by Obey Giant in an edition of 300, measuring 18 x 24 inches and originally priced at $30. Part of a two-color release issued in both Red and Blue variants, it depicts the hip-hop artist Slick Rick using Fairey's high-contrast, poster-style portrait approach. The print belongs to Fairey's broader series of music-figure portraits rendered in his signature graphic vocabulary, translating a musician's likeness into the flat, propaganda-influenced screen-print language characteristic of his mid-2000s Obey Giant output.
