About This Print
Eat The Rich is a 2012 Shepard Fairey screen print published by Obey Giant as a limited edition of 450, measuring 18 x 24 inches. Released on April 12, 2012 at two random times during the day with a limit of one per person or household, it was priced at $45. The title carries a pointed anti-wealth, class-critique message consistent with Fairey's recurring commentary on consumerism and power. The record classifies it under collaborations and pop culture with a portraiture secondary theme, presenting Fairey's bold graphic treatment of a politically charged slogan in his familiar high-contrast poster idiom.
