About This Print
Corporate Violence For Sale is a 2011 Shepard Fairey screen print, 18 x 24 inches, signed and numbered in a first edition of 450, printed on off-white paper rather than Fairey's usual Speckletone. Published by Obey Giant and released June 14, 2011 at $55, the work carries a pointed critique of corporate influence and money in politics. The source notes that a portion of proceeds went to a campaign finance reform organization, tying the image directly to political-reform advocacy. The title itself frames corporate power as a commodity, aligning the piece with Fairey's recurring themes of consumerism, power, and institutional critique.
