About This Print
Psychedelic Andre (Classic Red Obey Giant Variant) is a 2020 giclee print measuring 7.5 x 7.5 inches, published by 1xRUN in an edition tied to the 92 Obey Giant Blotter Variant release. A collaboration with poster artist John Van Hamersveld, it reworks the OBEY Andre the Giant icon in a swirling psychedelic treatment, issued for Bicycle Day 2020 and offered as one of four colorways. The small-format work fuses Fairey's signature face motif with vintage psychedelic poster aesthetics. Priced at $60 on release, it pairs OBEY iconography with a pop-culture collaboration drawn from classic concert-poster design.
