Shepard Fairey Paintings

American, b. 1970

Expanding on the legacies of artists such as Keith Haring and Andy Warhol, Shepard Fairey’s practice disrupts the distinction between fine and commercial art.

A major artist of the street art movement, Fairey rose to prominence in the early 1990s through the dispersion of prints, posters, stickers and murals, related to his Obey Giant campaign, which yielded an international cultural phenomenon. Fairey’s iconic poster of President Barack Obama was adopted as the official emblem associated with the presidential campaign and encapsulates a number of recurring concerns in the artist’s work, including propaganda, portraiture and political power.

A dreamy sunrise landscape with neon and warm colors of the "Land of the Tequila" in Jalisco with George Clooney and Rande Gerber. Both are depicted riding along the winding road on their motorcycles, with the alarm clock set to 5 AM. The agave plantations are found in the distance, and a monumental Margarita glass with two ice cubes falling into it are depicted. Sitting on the far back of the mountains are two tequila bottles, letting the tequila flow down the hill, making some rivers and up in the sky a sailplane and a “Casamigos” Tequila barrel with a lemon slice hanging from a tree branch in the style of ‘The Persistence of Memory’ by Salvador Dalí...

I leaned more towards punk, but some punk bands, most notably Bad Brains...
