“Screen Print 18 x 24 inches Edition of 200” — Shepard Fairey
About This Print
Ministry Of Information is a 2001 Shepard Fairey screen print measuring 18 x 24 inches, published by Obey Giant in a first edition of 200. The title evokes Orwellian bureaucratic authority and the control of information, themes central to Fairey's OBEY Giant project. Rendered in his high-contrast, propaganda-influenced poster style, the work critiques the institutional management of truth and messaging. The source description is brief, covering medium, dimensions, and edition, but the title situates the piece firmly within his surveillance and propaganda-critique catalog.
