Shepard Fairey, Jasper Johns, Cream edition, 91/450, (CA/SC, b. 1970), screenprint, signed and dated '09 lower right and numbered 91/450 lower left, depicting a seated portrait of Jasper Johns. Size of sheet: H. 24 in. x W. 18 in. Shepard Fairey is an American graphic artist and social activist who is part of the Street Art movement along with other artists including Banksy and Mr.Brainwash. Fairey blurs the boundary between traditional and commercial art through type and image, communicating his brand of social critique via prints, murals, stickers, and posters in public spaces. The artist is perhaps best known for his Hope (2008) campaign, which portrays a portrait of then-presidential candidate Barack Obama, in red, white, and blue. Fairey currently lives and works in Los Angeles, CA. His works are included in the collections of the Smithsonian in Washington, D.C., the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.
