“Obey Fiend Skull Screen Print 18 x 24 inches Edition of 300” — Shepard Fairey
About This Print
Obey Fiend Skull (First Edition) is a 2005 Shepard Fairey screen print published by Obey Giant in a first edition of 300, measuring 18 x 24 inches. Released at an original price of $30, it features a skull motif merged with OBEY iconography, rendered in Fairey's flat, high-contrast graphic style. The print engages themes of consumerism and power alongside his signature OBEY branding, using bold emblematic composition. As a standard 18 x 24 inch edition, it belongs to the accessible mid-2000s screen-print output through which Fairey extended his OBEY visual program across recurring symbols and motifs.
