About This Print
Power & Glory 'Merica (Large Format) is a 2017 large-format screen print measuring 30 x 40 inches on hand-deckled Coventry Rag fine art paper. Published by Hecho Con Ganas and printed by Modern Multiples, it is a first edition of 75, signed and numbered by Shepard Fairey and Ernesto Yerena Montejano. The work pairs Fairey's power-and-consumerism critique with a pointed take on American iconography, rendered at imposing scale. Released July 21, 2017 at an original price of $500, the print's large format and dual signatures distinguish it within Fairey's collaborative output.
