About This Print
Power And Glory (I) is a 2014 Shepard Fairey work combining silkscreen with gold foil-block printing on Somerset Tub-sized 410gsm paper, published by Paul Stolper Gallery. It measures 69.4 x 69.4 cm (27.3 x 27.3 inches), is signed and numbered in an edition of 75, and was the first of four prints in the Power and Glory set exhibited at the LA Art Show in January 2014. The image graphically dissects the American flag, reconfiguring the Stars and Stripes into a new design with a single dominant central star carrying the Obey motif, surrounded by seven stripes. It marked Fairey's first use of foil-blocking, which mimics the scrollwork of US currency.
