Shepard Fairey — “Vivi La Revolucion” — 2008 — Artist Proof (AP) Signed & Framed

Shepard Fairey — “Vivi La Revolucion” — 2008 — Artist Proof (AP) — Signed — Custom Framed

A particularly desirable presentation of Shepard Fairey’s 2008 “Vivi La Revolucion”, offered here as a signed Artist Proof (AP) and professionally framed to approximately 24 x 30 inches overall.

The underlying print measures 18 x 24 inches and was released in 2008 as a signed screen print. The standard edition was limited to 450, while artist-proof examples were separately designated AP and signed by Fairey.

The image is one of Fairey’s most personal and visually balanced works from the period. It depicts Vivienne Fairey, his daughter, seated with a white dove, combining a sense of childhood innocence with Fairey’s familiar revolutionary-poster vocabulary. Radiating red and gold rays, ornate patterning, a black cap with star iconography, and repeated OBEY motifs give the piece immediate visual impact, while the dove introduces a strong counterpoint of peace and hope.

This AP example is especially compelling because it pairs scarcity and provenance value with strong interior presentation. The gold-toned frame, large white mat, and engraved identification plaque give the piece a gallery-like presence that makes it feel more substantial than a standard unframed 18 x 24 release.

Collectors should also note the timing: 2008 is one of the most important years in Fairey’s career, the same period in which his visual language moved decisively into the broader cultural mainstream. The work sits squarely within the era that defined his political and propaganda-inspired aesthetic.
