BEE GEOMETRIC
Work Summary & Collector Notes
Today is World Bee Day. These “Bee Geometric” prints remind us how much our planet depends on bees as pollinators. Bees and other pollinators, such as butterflies, bats, and hummingbirds, are increasingly threatened by human activities. Pollination is, however, a fundamental process for the survival of our ecosystems. Nearly 90% of the world’s wild flowering plant species depend entirely, or at least in part, on animal pollination, more than 75% of the world’s food crops and 35% of global agricultural land. Not only do pollinators contribute directly to food security, but they are vital to conserving biodiversity. A portion of the proceeds from these prints will support the NRDC and its efforts on behalf of responsible environmental legislation.

Documented History and Meaning
History note: Shepard Fairey's OBEY / Andre the Giant campaign began in 1989 and grew into a long print and public-art practice; this page treats that as career context, not proof that this specific edition belongs to any single exhibition.
Meaning / interpretation: Fairey's practice combines propaganda-style imagery, political and countercultural themes, and a recurring OBEY vocabulary. Subject-specific intent is not assumed here unless the release record states it. This interpretive note follows the cited artist or publisher context.
Release context: The saved catalog lists 2024 and attributes the edition to Obey Giant.
