About This Print
Rock The Casbah (Black / Gold) is a 2008 Shepard Fairey screen print published by Obey Giant, measuring 18 x 24 inches in a signed edition of 300. The title references the Clash song, and the work belongs to a cluster of Fairey music-related prints released that year. It was issued in multiple colorways, including Black, Black / Gold, and Red, with this variant carrying the Black / Gold treatment. The design pairs Fairey's bold graphic vocabulary with his ongoing engagement with punk and rock counterculture imagery.
