About This Print
Interpolation Diptych is a 2014 signed screen print set of 550, 24 x 18 inches each, published by Obey Giant at $100 per set. It grew out of Fairey's mural collaboration with the band Interpol, interpreting their song "Everything Is Wrong" from the album El Pintor (itself an anagram of INTERPOL). Fairey built his own anagrams from the title and folded in ideas from his "Power & Glory" show critiquing Americana, money, and power. The work pairs Interpol's film-noir aesthetic with Fairey's graphic style, framing complicity in unhealthy relationships and systems as its central theme.
