About This Print
Op-Art Icon (Offset Edition) is a 2024 Shepard Fairey offset lithograph published by Obey Giant, measuring 24 x 36 inches and printed on 80# Natural White Cougar Smooth paper. Priced at $35 and signed by the artist, it places the OBEY Icon Face over vibrating op-art patterns inspired by 1960s psychedelic poster artists. Fairey describes weaving intense, optically active colors through the Icon Face with a subtle translucency over a spray-paint texture. The work revisits his early-1990s color-theory experiments while pushing the pattern and color further, continuing the OBEY campaign principle of repetition with evolution.
