Artist Statement
“18 x 24 inch Screen Print. Signed Edition of 450” — Shepard Fairey
About This Print
Obey Billboard (Eye) is a 2008 screen print by Shepard Fairey, published by Obey Giant in a signed first edition of 450. Measuring 18 x 24 inches, it deploys the recurring OBEY eye motif within a billboard-style composition, drawing on the visual conventions of advertising and surveillance imagery. The all-seeing eye, a staple of Fairey's iconography, anchors the design with his high-contrast graphic palette and propaganda-poster styling. Released July 31, 2008 at an original price of $45, the work pairs with its same-day companion Obey Billboard (Consume) and continues Fairey's consumerism-and-power theme through the appropriated language of outdoor commercial media.
