About This Print
American Rage is a 2020 offset lithograph by Shepard Fairey, printed on cream Speckletone paper at 24 x 36 inches and published by Obey Giant. The image is built from an original photograph by Ted Soqui and translated into Fairey's bold, high-contrast poster idiom. Signed by Fairey and priced at $45, the print was released with proceeds going to Black Lives Matter. It pairs a documentary photographic base with Fairey's graphic protest aesthetic, addressing American anger, injustice, and the demand for social change. The work sits among Fairey's accessible, cause-tied offset releases from the charged summer of 2020.
